Are you serious? :confused: :confused:

@Beelzebub and Luis:

Even though you might not like the story of LoTR, there is not way you can say the movie was bad. The scenery, the music, the acting, etc. I consider LoTR a milestone in film, even if you neglect the story itself.

Amedus
My Cousin Vinnie
The Great Mouse Detective
So I Married An Axe Murdered

Revenge of the Sith: It was pretty killer, but the plot seemed kinda rushed because of all the fight scenes (which were damn good). There were a few things that annoyed me, but it did kick total ass. It almost made the prequels worthy of the original trilogy's reputation. Almost. Nothing can make up for episode one's sucking.
 
I liked all of the prequel SW trilogy to be honest. Yes I hated Jar Jar, but I still liked TPM, and he was barely in the other two. The lighthearted stupid scenes in the first two have a new feel to them once you watch ROTS which is so dark. I do agree that ROTS was rushed though. He could have very easily have gone over three hours and it would not have seen long. The LOTR movies were longer, and there were a lot of scenes in the ROTS book that should have been included.

and Magnolia sucks. WTF, sitting for 3 hours, watching this movie.. and suddenly FROGS start falling out of the sky. What a nonsense.

Basically, I think it was a good movie, but when the frogs start falling the wohle thing starts to suck, because it's so unnecessary and the whole athmosphere is destroyed. At this point I felt like waking up from a nightmare. But it was one of the best Tom Cruise-perfomances, I've ever seen.

As to What dreams may come: Definitely, a movie worth watching with a brilliant Robin Williams, Annabella Sciorra, Cuba Goodings and last but not least Max von Sydow.

So what other films do I like? Basically SW, Indiana Jones, many David Lynch and Wim Wenders-films, Blade Runner, LotR, Matrix, Guy-Richie-Movies, Quentin Tarrantino and Ingmar-Bergmann-Films. And (don't know, if they are known in the USA at all) Rainer-Werner-Fassbender-films.

Well, there are too many to list them all here :).
 
Ok Well I love so many movies but ill drop it down nicely.

High Fidelity
Almost Famous
One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest
Dead Poets Society
American History X
The Crow
Back To The Future Trilogy
Star Wars Trilogy (The originals, fuck the new ones)
The Matrix Trilogy
Happy Gilmore (Anything With Adam Sandler in it actually)
The Blues Brothers
Indiana Jones ( all of them)
The Fugitive
The Day After Tomorrow

The Day After Tomorrow

My friends who are meteorology majors really loved this movie. I thought it was a waste of my time and I can't see why anyone would enjoy seeing it. Why did you like it?
 
I liked the Day After Tomorrow as well. In fact, its one of the few DVD's I own.

Actually I like a lot of post and pre apocalyptic movies:

Armageddon
Deep Impact
Titan AE
Waterworld ( :cool: )
The Postman
The Terminator
The Matrix
and so on....
 
How can helicopters freeze in the air but Dennis Quaid can walk from Pennsylvania to the New York Public Library unscathed? I don't have a problem with suspension of disbelief, but The Day After Tomorrow took it a little bit too far.
