Name a movie that you would "suggest" that some others might have not seen.

Started by Jeff_Atello15 pages

I've seen The Heist, the Score, Gone in 60 Seconds and Snatch. Snatch is definitely the best one of the group. I also like The Italian Job, but it wasn't anywhere as good as Ocean's 11.

oceans 11 put me to sleep....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Ok...ppl lets go back to suggesting movies.
WD> I suggest most spanish, french and italian movies since you like QT so much. All those innovative things you see...they've been doing it for a long time. Probably less blood thou (in a few cases).

Alrighty, 2 foreign movie recommendations just for fun:

The Devil's Backbone (Mexico)
Double Vision (Japan)

taking lives, the hot chick, cabin fever, and wrong turn

Something to ponder

Just a suggestion from a 'newbie'.....

How about checking the thread title? Suggest titles that people might NOT have seen. To me that suggests non-mainstream movies. No offense to anyone that listed the following, but these are movies that were pretty big hits in the theater (so they really probably don't belong in this sort of thread):

[list]
[*]Friday After Next
[*]Dumb and Dumber
[*]Moulin Rouge
[*]Ocean's 11
[*]Pirates of the Caribbean
[*]Titanic (highest box office rake in history? That doesn't suggest 'little known" to me)
[*]Lord of the Rings (c'mon people)
[/list]

Just mentioning a few. Maybe I'm out of line and if so, I respectfully apologize. (*sigh*)

Haven't seen all of Friday After Next, but I likes Next Friday. Dumb and Dumber is a classic. I didn't like Moulin Rouge. Ocean's 11 is great, but we've been talking about that. PotC was great. Titanic was horribly done and is a horrible excuse for a film. And I don't like Lord of the Rings.

Jeff.. FYI: I was pointing out movies that are extremely mainstream, which have been pointed out by others in this thread, which I don't think was the original intent, thus the title: "name a movie you would 'suggest', that others might have not seen", rather than what some people are replying to as more like "name a blockbuster you've seen and liked".

*sigh*

Instead of pointing out blockbuster that ppl suggested (yes that is not what this thread is about) why dont you suggest a few non-mainstream movies mate?!

I did, but I'll do it again:

Boondock Saints
American History X
The Salton Sea
Interstate 60
2 Days In the Valley
Snatch
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
Frailty

Now none of those are completely obscure, but they definitely weren't blockbusters and I doubt that the majority of the movie-watching community have even heard of them.

Never under estimate the power of the KMC Forum users. 😄

I don't know what rock you'd be living under to have not heard of Snatch, AHX, or Frailty.

Here are some selections that I'd recommend personally.

May
The Believer
Buckaroo Banzai
The Shape of Things
Top Secret
Helter Skelter
Double Vision
Battle Royale
Knockaround Guys
My First Mister

I'd be glad to give a little synopsis of any of those sound interesting to anyone.

These are pretty famouse. Bizarre a member of a movie forum not know (at least) about them 😛
Dont you have more?
I dont think I've said this one before and since I haven seen it available nor in DVD nor in VHS I'll name it.
Noises off (its a comedy with Christopher Reeve and Micheal Caine.

Knockaround Guys was a crappy movie...

I recommend

G.I. Joe the Animated Movie.

it rules because you get to see Srgt. Slaughter kick Cobras ass! Nemesis-Enforcer is pretty tough, but he's got nothing on Slaughter!!!

things like this make me very sad

Coincidentally, those are 4 failures of movies that I personally would tell everyone over the age of 16 to skip.

What? I was simply stating my opinion on the movies you mentioned. I wasn't aware that was illegal.

I agree...and I'm 16.

If your looking for a hilarious crime comedy, check out "Murder by Death." It's a predecessor of "Clue" (which is one of my favorite movies of all time). It stars Alec Guinness, Peter Falk, Truman Capote, Eileen Brennan, and Maggie Smith. It was made in '78. Absolutely hilarious 😆

I know, and after reading -this- reply, I -still- don't think that you read -that- entire post. No big deal.
