CaP'N GRuNGe Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Any suggestions for newer movies from the last couple years to watch? Been pretty out of the loop in the movie scene so theres a good chance if you mention it I haven't seen it. Cued up Sideways so far...

montster Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 get "oldboy." it's a korean film, one of the best movies i've seen in the past year. americans are re-making it, so see it before that happens so you can say how you were into it before it was cool.

H8tank Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Grandmas Boy, Happy Madison production, the usual crew, with appearances by kevin nealon, david spade, rob schneider, foking hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egret Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Some recent highly rated movies by me: Million Dollar Baby Rabbit Proof Fence Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price Good Night, and Good Luck Cinderella Man Walk the Line Batman Begins Nirvana: Nevermind (It's a look at the behind the scenes production of the album. Very cool.) Crash In Good Company Cold Mountain TV Series: Undeclared (only lasted one season, great show by the guy who made Freaks and Geeks) Dead Like Me (another great show. lasted two seasons) Deadwood (still on. great f'n show) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 TV Series: Undeclared (only lasted one season, great show by the guy who made Freaks and Geeks) Totally brilliant. If you spent more than 3 days in college, this will bring back memories. I loved the one where Ron and Lloyd got the credit card, withdrew cash, and invested it in some stock ("These cigars are $8 a pop - they taste awful and make me wanna puke BUT I DON'T CARE!")

Chavez Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Some recent highlights I've gotten from Netflix: Evelenko (kinda divorces itself from reality, but an interesting story about Russia's worst serial killer - well, not counting Stalin) Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (a must-see, freakin' terrific) The Hidden (cheesy, crazy movie about aliens taking over human bodies) A Bridge Too Far (terrific WWII movie about the failure of Operation Market Garden) Following (Mike Nolan's (Memento, Batman Begins) first film, really good noir) The Ice Harvest (not as good as KKBB, but decent black heist comedy) Red Eye (underseen Wes Craven film with Rachel McAdams and Cillian Murphy) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 More: Funny Bones (Oliver Platt and Jerry Lewis in a movie where the ending is COMPLETELY worth the entire experience) The Underneath (Soderbergh noir with Peter Gallagher; William Fichtner is great as the Walken-esque villain) RKO 281 (the terrific Liev Schreiber as Orson Welles making Citizen Kane) High Noon (yeah, hardly a "find" but deserving of its rep as one of the great movies EVER. See it NOW if you haven't; if you have, watch it again) No Man's Land (very good movie set during the Balkan conflict) Once Were Warriors (this film will break your f*cking heart) Downfall (Hitler's last days - utterly brilliant) Layer Cake (the new 007 Daniel Craig in a terrific British crime movie - if you think Guy Ritchie is a hack, this proves it) Leningrad Cowboys Go America (imagine Spinal Tap starring in Napoleon Dynamite) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaP'N GRuNGe Posted June 25, 2006 Author Share Posted June 25, 2006 Thanks guys. I noticed Netflix was f'n fast charging my account. I guess the 2 week trial is built in or something. Here's what I cued up so far: Sideways Spanglish Finding Neverland Million Dollar Baby Wedding Crashers Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Hmmmm. Maybe I need to quit FF to find time to watch all these movies now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
