You pretty much named all my Dads favorite movies. Indirectly I’ve seen...or heard them all many times over the years. Good list

Didn’t want to start a thread on this.....and full disclaimer, this is not a political discussion just an observation.

Is it me or does US Rep. Matt Gaetz of FL look exactly like Randall McMurphy (Jack Nicholson) in One Flew over the Cuckoos Nest? A definite separated at birth if I ever saw one!

What say you?

"The Shining" movie was really good but could not hold a candle to the book.

Both The Shining and Deliverance messed with my head for a while after seeing them.

Napoleon Dynamite hasn't been mentioned. My daughters made us watch it at one holiday gathering. Couldn't *believe* anyone would intentionally sit and watch something like that more than once. Have now watched it multiple times. What is *wrong* with me??!

Funny movie.

Two other movies I found with a very strong message were Paths of Glory, and All Quiet on the Western Front.

Great whites

The Jaws follow ups, like the Rocky follow ups, never reached the quality of the originals, again, just my opinion.

I'd never get in the water without a cage around great whites, but Jaws seemed to give all sharks a bad name. :-) Flickr

Great movie.
Peter Sellers was great, one of my favorites with him was 'Being There'.

Another favorite, 'Harold and Maude'.

Raiders of the Lost Ark

deej012160 03-17-2024 07:16 PM

Another excellent one is Dr. Strangelove <or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb>.....
