Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
+1 awesome acting from Johnny Depp and Benicio Del Toro.

I'd say:

Back to the future trilogy
What's eating gilbert grape
Billy Elliott
Forrest Gump
Big fish
Blade runner
Crash
South park the movie
...

These are the movies that get to my mind right now.

Some more serious suggestions:
A weird mixture of scifi, romance and medieval movie that has awesome music and the potential to make you cry, try "The Fountain" directed by Darren Aronofsky, starring Hugh Jackman. I've never seen this guy act so good before. Also, Rachel Weisz. I'd link a trailer, but it spoilers so much it's not really funny any more. I would tell you what it's about, but i'm not entirely sure yet. Warning, nearly no action, but instead a lot of symbolism.

Some rather light-weighted movie, a mixture of horror, scifi and dark comedy, try Slither, found it by luck, was fun to watch, easy entertainment. Starring: The guy fom firefly and a blonde chick that I know from somewhere but not sure from where exactly. Aliens land in some american small town and infest all blahblahblah. The story is cliche, but it's well played.

Probably one of my favorites:
The man from earth. An independent movie with half a dozen friends sitting in a wooden hut and talking. Talking about what? One of those friends claims he is actually a caveman that just doesn't die. Awesome.

That's just a few random picks from the top of my head, might post more when I can think of something else.

Title: Re: Film suggestions
Post by: Overdriven on June 20, 2011, 08:23:35 pm
My favs:

Gladiator
Kingdom of Heaven (Directors cut, don't bother with the original)
Moulin Rouge (I know  :oops: )
A Beautiful Mind
Battle Royale (who doesn't love Japanese teenagers killing each other)
Beowulf (actually loved this film for some reason)
Black Swan
Big Fish
Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs (one of the best animated movies out there)
Hot Rod
Independence Day
Master and Commander
Memoirs of a Geisha (beautifully shot film)
Pan's Labyrinth (weird but worth the time)
Rec
Singin in the Rain (not exactly current but always good)
The Beach
The Butterfly Effect (Directors cut...not the shitty release version)
The Hole (Keira Knightly early film)
The Motorcycle Diaries
Up

the fountain and man from earth are two of my favourites. gonna try slither.

personnally i liked district 9 very much. love the main actor and the whole idea of it. aliens as diasdained scum in a slum in johanisburg, men racist against aliens. some don't like that it becomes some kind of action movie at some point, i like that too.

I also recommend "moon". No action, no big story, but the athmosphere and acting is great. Reminds me of some stanislaw lem book. great sci-fi.

did someone of you watched eagke vs. shark? crazy, hilarious.

mh, thats all for now.

Corrected.

King Arthur

You're kidding? Clive Owen is the most wooden actor in existence. In all honesty, the Arthurian tales are rather spoiled for me after reading Bernard Cornwell's version. His is a fantastic rendition of it and never read/seen anything in comparison.

Post by: Sharky on June 23, 2011, 02:15:28 am
Since i really like them, here's a good war movies list.

This is some of my favourite Modern War Movies that pop ups in my mind:filmed after the 1990, that might interest you more if you are young or not that much into war movies or old cinema.

The Pacific and Band of Brothers
. Both miniseries with 10 episodes from Tom Hanks and Spielberg (that they also did the awesome but much less accurate Saving Private Ryan) they are more kolossals then tv series so i put in the list.
Both are in ww2, The pacific is Marines vs Japanese, Band of Brothers is mainly Americans vs Germans.
They are really awesome, even if you are not into war films check them.

Letters From Iwo Jima, from clint eastwood. I suggest watching it with japan audio.

The last Samurai. Beautiful film and the battles of samurais against an european like army are pure awesomness.

El Alamein - The Line of Fire (El Alamein - La linea del fuoco). Cool italian war movie on our poor soldiers at the El-Alamein battle. It's well made and i think watching the war from the italian prospective would be interesting for foreigners too, it doesn't happen often  :D

Black Hawk Down. Somalia 1993, 2 hours of madness and epic gun fights, it feels like a videogame but it's quite accurate about what really happened, wich is scary.

Enemy At the Gates. A western movie athmosfere, but with scoped rifles and stalingrad instead of some american desert. Cool to watch.
   
On the Iraq war there is Redacted and The Hurt Locker that won the 2010 oscar for best film

Downfall. German movie on the last days of einstein and the battle of Berlin.


Thin Red Line.
American Movie on the guadalcanal (pacific theatre) in ww2.

Stalingrad German war movie of the '90

Gomorrah
. Italian movie about the war beetween Cammorra(neapolis Mafia) and Scissionisti (Separatists) .
That isn't classified as a war movie, but it actually talks about a war with thousands deaths, and in the film there is a lot of beating and gunfights. And the film itself is awesome, it reminds those '50 and '60 neorealist italian movies, but with a touch of hollywood modern style.
Title: Re: Film suggestions
Post by: Sharky on June 23, 2011, 02:17:32 am
Here instead you can find less modern war movies.
I'll skip the war movies masterpieces that i hope you all know and already watched, to propose something different you could have missed but is nice to watch even today.

Great War
. By monicelli, awesome italian movie on ww1.

Cross of Iron (early '80) .Epic German movie over the Eastern Front. It mixes really realistic and harsh battle scenes with sarcasm and what it seems a bunch of drug fueled trips that reminds of "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas".You have to watch it.

Das Boot.   Another epic German war movie, this time on the german submarines. Best submarine movie ever, period.

The Winter War (talvisota). Finnish movie over the Winter War. I didn't really follow the first part of the movie since it was in finnish with english subs, but the battles were really well done.

Osvobozhdenie (The great Battle). Russian Kolossal on the battle of kursks. Never saw so much real ww2 veichles in a movie. Hundred of real tanks planes and infantry fighting each others without even one computer made special effect. Also different style in combat scenes compared to western films.

Ôzora no samurai (Zero Pilot): Japanese movie based on the biography of one of the best fighter aces of ww2, Saburo Sakai.

All quiet on the western front They did 2 versions, one in the '30 and one in the '70. They are both good. Based on a book with the same name.

Spartacus and Barry Lindon
from our lord Stanley Kubrik. Yeah i know i don't have to mention so well known films, but i just love them and i can't not mention them. Watch all kubrik's movies too.

I love war movies as well and Das Boot is one of the best and worth mentioning twice (fixed the English title for the other film, book is better though).

Attack! (Aldrich)

Ran (Kurusawa) is just epic (all Kurusawa films are worth watching: myth has it that 'Starwars: A New Hope' was based in part on Kurusawa's Hidden Fortress.

Two modern Chinese movies are definitely watchable:

The battle of Red Cliff (Woo)

The Three Kingdoms (Daniel Lee)

Some dramas:

Farewell my concubine (Chen Kiage)

Raise the red lantern (Zhang Yimou)

The Decalogue (Krzysztof Kieslowski) TV miniseries with 10 films, two became full length " A short film about killing" and "A short film about love"

Sci-Fi

Solaris (Andrey Tarkovskiy), not the American remake

yea i had some problems like this too. Chinese films are not very popular in general so there r less good quality films available on those sites. I managed to find a few good one on piratebay but i am not allowed to post any piratebay links here :(

The Hurt Locker was another good war film

Saving Private Ryan was amazing

yeah more like a docufiction then a movie, but interesting if you are into those kind of tv shows. Also who played einstein was a pretty cool actor

A really good docufiction with awesome and historically accurate battles is also Hannibal: Rome's worst nightmare.
The cannae battle in that movie is one of the most accurate and brutal depiction of an ancient battle ever.
Also i liked that for once the romans aren't depicted with that lame lorica segmentata and late helmet and late army organization, but have the real early republican stuff (bronze little breastplate or no armour at all, and montefortino helmet) and quite bad tactics relying only on sheer numbers and choesion.

Also there is Ancient Rome The Rise and Fall of An Empire that have good battle historical accuracy but with good actors and some action. Don't watch the usa version, it's just a documentary with standard lorica segmentata battle scenes on the background for every battle.
Watch the uk (bbc)  version it's more like a movie and also much more accurate

@jspook: I just made a multiplayer mod as a way to view my models. You can take the mask model out of that if you want and know what you are doing.

Lately I've stumbled across a few good Christian Bale movies.

The Machinist is a good psychological thriller, he starved himself for 4 months before filming.

And then of course there's Equilibrium, a good shoot em' up flick.

Also Confessions of a Dangerous Mind is pretty funny.

All Quiet in the Western Front is a good war film (1979, about WWI)

The first one is way better, but a bit old (1930).

I also recommend everything that has "Kubrick" or "Tarantino" written in the credits, no matter where. Everything they approach turns gold.

I didn't look at all the previous posts, but here are some movies pretty watchable:
City of God (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBWtTrLxUjM) (the 2002 movie) that recounts the evolution of gangs in the favelas from the 60' to the 80'. One of the best endings evar.
Children of Men (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NikEQy1XxDE); women can't make babies, immigrates are illegal, world collides. All this made by some talented mexican filmmaker through awesome sequence shots.

Oh, and I just noticed that the better a movie is, the more awful its trailer gets.
