I'm a bit of a Michael Douglas fan, from "Romancing the Stone" to "Falling Down" and "The Game".
Also love "Terminator 1,2 and 3" for action films.
"Dumb and Dumber" and "Ace Ventura" are two of my favorite comedies, Jim Carrey is awesome!
I've been on a indie film kick for a while, lots of good movies you have never heard of out there.
If you havent seen "Donnie Darko" I highly suggest it, its a one of a kind film.

Heat- Al pacino, Val kilmer, Deniro.... this is a great cop flick, but alot of shoot em ups..
Good Fellas
My cousin Vinny.
Lethal Weapon's
Die Hard's
Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man
Along with ones already mentioned.
Dirty Harry stuff
Almost any Clint eastwood stuff, including the "Any which way but loose" movies with clyde the orangutang...

For some obscure satirical comedy...

Best in show
Office Space
Joe VS the Volcano

IMO, about 3% of movies made anymore,(modern era) are actually worth watching. The new stuff is just way the heck out there.

I don't know why, but there is a slew of movies I have seen hundreds of times from the 80's and 70's I still watch almost every time they come on. Like Jaws,Karate kid, RAD..etc

I couldnt agree more. Especially "action" films. New ones are so overly saturated with CGI there is hardly any real stunts. May as well be watching a cartoon.

My all time favorite movie is Kelly's Heros. I must have seen that a thousand times as a kid and I still watch it when it comes on the TV. No. 2 is Bad Boys II.

Anyone who has been busting their butt to make someone rich for over 20 years in a rumdum existence of robotic behavior, or has argued with anyone "specifically over the internet" should appreciate this clip.

I haven't seen Kelly's Hero's. Knowing your appreciation of the female form,,I assume that was a sequel to Debbie Does Dallas?? lol,,, See,,look at how many awesome ones I missed. Lethal Weapons,Karate Kid,My Cousin Vinny,,Great ones ! I love Love Vince Vaughn, Fred Claus for the family,,Evan Almighty,,Love Steve Carole? Spelling?

Crossroads -with Ralph Machio (from karate kid) not the Brittney Spears movie!

Christmas Vacation, Joe Dirt, Napolean Dynamite, Happy Gilmore are some of my favorites. Has anyone seen "Fubar" and Fubar 2"? They are low budget Canadian films that can be compared to "Trailer Park Boys" meets "Dazed and Confused" Highly recommended if you know someone stuck in the 80's and never really grew up.
