Yojimbo and Sanjuro by Kurowawa. Harvey with Jimmy Stewart. There may be Giants, starring General Patton.
<< If you got off from that part, you are sick :disgust::|
You should definently see this move [Requiem For A Dream]. BEST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN. Hands down, no contest. But to describe it would be to cheapen it. Just see it (and make sure you get the uncut version. Not the rated R version, the NC-17 one).
Be prepared to get depressed though. >>
As for the hands down, that's your opinion. I liked it, but by no means is it my fav. I like donnie darko, fight club, and fear and loathing in las vegas more...
BTW Chooco you are writing down all these movies, right? So you can rent them ALL this weekend...

Ah, movies. A fav topic of mine
Memento -- A movie where at the beginning you know exactly what is going on, and at the end you haven't a clue what's real and what is the guy's imagination
Aliens -- Excellent sequel. Bunch of kick-@$$ marines vs large, nasty bugs.
Ginger Snaps -- Werewolf movie combined with female coming of age. No real 'classic' heros, shows the underbelly of modern highschools, interesting ideas about trying to deal with turning into a humanoid wolf over the course of a month. And and ending that bucks all the trends in mondern movies!
Kevin Smith movies -- (Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, Jay & Slient Bob Strike Back). All excellent movies, IMO, usually with unique commentary on society. Chasing Amy is one of the more unconventional romantic comedies to come along in ages. Dogma is my fav, and a GREAT take on religion (note, it's religion, not God).
Charade -- An older movie, here. Audrey Hepburn & Cary Grant. An excellent murder mystery, conatins some excellent twists and probably some of the greatest one-liners between the stars in any movie I've ever seen
Idle Hands -- A total slacker gets his hand possessed by a demon and ends up killing people. Dark slapstick comedy. I LOVE the part where he fights the hard for control of the remote control. As a bonus, you get to see Seth Green killed (Though it dosen't take). Nice preformance by The Offspring, too.
The Whole Nine Yards -- NOT a football movie! Ex-hitman Bruce Willis movies in next to dentist Mathew Perry. And Perry's golddigging wife convinces him to rat out Willis to the mob for a reward. Great chemestry.
The Ninth Gate -- Johnny Depp plays the anti hero as a rather underhanded rare book dealer who is hired to research a book that can apparently summon Satan. However, he's not the only one after the book.
Ronin -- A group of mercs are contracted to retireve a mysterous box in southern France. My friend insists that there's really a pizza in the box.
Rocky Horror Picture Show -- While often filed under Horror due to its title, this movie in fact features Tim Curry as a singing, dancing, transexual, transvestite from Transalvania. If seen in its regular format, it's one of the dumbest movies ever made, if seen with the callbacks (available on the DVD, though you need a good soundsystem to make them out. Cr@ppy coordination amongst the people who made it) it's one of the most hilarious things you'll ever see.
Arsenic and Old Lace -- Carry Grant, B&W. This is one movie I think everyone should see. Grant is a poor sucker who finds his two sweet, old aunts are killing people and hiding the bodies in the basement. And just when you think things can't get worse, they DO! (Boy, do they ever). A great movie that could never be remade, and a prime example of how movies SHOULD be done.
Night of the Living Dead (1991 edition) -- The dead come back to life and society falls to pieces. LOVE the ending to this one! Also check out the comedic parody Return of the Living Dead (featuring, at one point, a nekkid chick in a grave yard).
The Long Kiss Goodnight -- Geena Davis as a woman with a deadly past and no memory of it, and Samuel L Jackson as a burnt out detective who helps her find it. Lots of action, wickidly funny at some parts.
Freaked -- A rare find, but an excellent one! A spoiled movie star, his buddy, and a female hitch hiker get suckered into a freak show and turned into attractions. Unique, very funny. I was almost on the floor when the kid/troll gets sucked out of the airplane door.... and then 'lands'.
Anyway, happy hunting!

Doctor Strangelove: Or I how I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb. One of the funniest movies ever created. Peter Sellers plays three roles, the President, Dr. Strangelove and Mandrake. Kubrick is at his finest.
Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels: Another classic. Made in 1996 (?), a British film about a bunch of friends who get involved in a gambling scheme. Hilarious.

<< good movie choices, not so great descriptions.
example:Requiem for a Dream - Addictions not Obsessions >>
"to devote or surrender (oneself) to something habitually or obsessively" Poor choice of works, an addiction is surrendering yourself to something obsessively! Pfff... All my descriptions are bad... I don't want to give him the plot, or my takes on the movies. They are ment to keep you thinking for yourself, not think what someone tells you...

Oh, forgot a few:
A Boy and His Dog -- A post apocalypse movie about a young man and his telepathic pootch. A bit low budget, but the ending is a total and utter riot!! Very well done!
Riki-oh -- Total and utter gore fest about a man sent to prision for avenging the death of his girl (wait till you see that, I was roaring). Shivs are replaced by swords, and the hero is virtually indestructable.
The Hunt for Red October -- Sean Connery as a Russian sub captain trying to get his boat to the US without his crew finding out and the US blowing him out of the water.
Fifth Element -- The first successful live action anime movie. Bruce Willis and a (barely dressed) Milla Jovovich must save the world from an ancient evil. I want a special edition DVD of this movie!!
Hackers -- While this and The Net came out at the same time, this was the superior of the two movies. As usual, almost totally unrealistic in their portrayal of the use of computers, still way better than The Net!! Great soundtrack, and the pranks pulled throughout are wonderful.
Gattaca -- Interesting, rather frightening account of the world where gene-engineering determines a person's station in life.
The Negotiator -- Samuel L Jackson as a police negotiator who takes hostages to prove his innocence and Kevin Spacey as the negotiator brought in to take him down.
Rush Hour 1 & 2 -- Chris Tucker & Jackie Chan, little more needs to be said. Cool buddy-cop movies, GREAT one-liners, and the usual amazing stunt scenes. Personally, I thought 1 had a better story than 2.
Enjoy!
