Blow was awesome. Crank and Crank II were pretty good, as well as any Jason Statham movie. The Expendables was pretty entertaining!

No one can talk about bad movies until they've seen Zardoz. I'm dead serious when I say it was the worst movie I'd ever seen, by MILES

Ha! Abe forced me to sit through the first 10 minutes or so of that one shortly after we'd spent dinner w/ his woman discussing the various drugs which are commonly used in euthanasing pets, and what a pretty purple color Euthasol® is, in particular.

Sean Connery in a bikini? Big stone heads vomiting guns? Cryptic lectures about evil Penises? Yeah.

Not sure I have a personal favorite, though "Network" definitely holds a special place in my heart: http://torrents.thepiratebay.org/401...59.TPB.torrent

I just finished watching Bound. Thanks for the recommendation. Not the best movie in the world but +1 on the big win stuff...

Zardoz... I could only get through the first 10 minutes as well. One could say that it was "bad in a good way", but I disagree. It was bad when it came out, and it's bad now. That being said, I've been using Netflix to watch a bunch of old movies. Just saw "Metropolis" the other day, it was pretty good for a non-talkie (not that it would matter to a deaf guy like me).

I also like hardboiled detective ****. Chinatown is near the top of my list.

LOL, went on a first date (blind date, actually) to this movie when it was at the local arty-farty theater. Fortunately, she picked it. She was very embarrassed as she had NO IDEA what it was about. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Now I am going to embarrass myself. I think one of the best movies ever is Avatar. It's the only movie that I have ever gone to in a theater more than once and have watched it since then. The best? no. One of the top five, for sure. I'd have to put the original Alien in there. Again, the effects were great for what it was at the time. The same can be said for Star Wars. I went to it in the theater in 1977 and was in awe. Of course I was 10, but wow. For war movies, Full Metal Jacket, Platoon and Saving Private Ryan.

HA! Awesome... Good story. So did you get a second date? Did she bring a female friend?
