No, not really. It was funny every once and awhile, but it wasn't great. I liked I am Legend.

Superbad was really good.

I thought it was pretty good, one of those movies it would be a lot more funny if you watched it with other people though (:()

Highlander. I watched it the other day, it's still great.
Or the final cut of Bladerunner.

Since I built my home theater I usually wait for the DVD to come out to add to my collection.
I like comedies. "Knocked Up" is hilarious and Katherine Heigl is super hot.

My favourite movie of all time:
Trainspotting. Some of you might not understand the dialect in it though. This is the movie where Euan McGregor made his mark.
An absolute classic.
Matt McGuire

Put it in my queue (have like 40 in there). I'll probably see it in 3 months :)

I suggest you move it up. :)
This movie is a cult classic and not like any other regular movie. It has an 8.2 rating on IMDB which is quite good considering how picky people are about movies on that site.
Matt McGuire
02-12-2008, 10:39 PM
I'll eventually get to it. I'm in no hurry.

That was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Shut it off after 25 mins.

Versus (awesome ridiculousness)
Starship Troopers (awesome cheesiness)
Pan's Labyrinth (awesome fantasy)
No Country for Old Men (awesome badassery)
^There's an eclectic mix for you.
and if you're into tv at all, try It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. that sh*t is hilarious.

The Bone Collector.

NNC I actually saw on your facebook page that AHX was your favorite movie. Rented it; loved it, but I was going to rent it anyways since Ed Norton is my favorite actor.
NoNonsenseCoach
06-11-2008, 12:43 AM
Ya it is my favorite movie ever. I just didn't want to hype it up for you now and you be dissappointed lol.
Check out The Rock sometime, it's a hostage/military/terrorist movie.

If it is cheesiness you are after, let me recomend National Treasure II...

Well...there's tongue-in-cheek cheese (a la hiring nothing but soap opera actors for Starship Troopers, upping the violence to ridiculous levels, etc)... then there's just plain summer movie cheese. Granted, though, I haven't seen NTII, so maybe it's good cheese.
(Hmm...kinda feel like having a taco now)

Some movies I've seen recently that were pretty good:
Hitman (especially if you've played the game)
Thank You for Smoking (I think Matt would love this one)

Added to my queue:
1. Thank You for Smoking
2. Face/Off
3. Bone Collector
4. The Rock
Thanks guys! I appreciate all the suggestions, some of the other movies were either foreign (pan's labyrinth) or just didn't seem like I would like them...keep the suggestions coming!

06-12-2008, 01:40 AM
Pan's Labyrinth was a sweet movie even with subtitles.
I liked Thank You for Smoking, loved Face/Off, thought Bone Collector was OK and I haven't seen the Rock but heard it's a sweet movie.
There's a new Futurama movie out. Not sure if you like Futurama, but if you do I recommend it :)
Matt McGuire

WARNING! This movie is long and basically a man talking about oil. I watched it with friends and while I enjoyed how Badass the Daniel was, my friends were bored to tears.

Euh...not sure about that one..
DDL was amazing in the movie and deserved best actor. As for everything else about the movies, I think No Country was tops. But to each his own.
IMO, The Rock was awesome, FaceOff just ok, Bone Collector was lame, Thank You For Smoking pretty good.
As for the foreign movies, I guess I can understand, but you're missing out on some good flicks if you limit yourself like that. Pan's is my favorite of all time. Versus has yakuza, zombies, gunfights, samurai and swordfights, scifi action, and one-liners galore - what's not to love? :p

This may be too obvious, but if you haven't seen Pulp Fiction or Anchorman then you should see them.
NoNonsenseCoach
06-15-2008, 01:40 AM
You should get Rounders for sure if you've never seen it, but I imagine you have.
Honestly if you're with a bunch of buddies rent Carebears 2 and watch it, it's so hilarious.

You said Edward Norton is your favorite actor, he's definitely my favorite actor and I freaking love this movie. It's hilarious, and seeing Robin Williams in broadway form was pretty good. If you haven't seen this movie, I recommend that you do.

If you are looking for a bad movie but really funny watch the Sasquatch Gang. Justin Long is fantastic. It's been on cable.
