[Mr. J]

That's a good list up there, JWohl. You forgot Rush Hour though (

)

Also I forgot about my list!

Scarface
Rush Hour
Love and Basketball

Drumline
Boyz n the Hood
The Pianist
Those are the only ones I can think of now. I'll finish it soon.

I know I'm probably alone on this, but doesn anyone NOT like The Matrix? Did anyone other than me find that slow motion, 360-degree every 30 seconds thing annoying?

 

[Knicks Analyst]

Pianist was good, mrj. Nice pick. Compelling story and fabulous movie.

EDIT: I really disliked the Matrix, except for some of the Smith scenes.

I meant to....

 

[Voodoo Child]

The Doors (just for the fact I like them)
Back to the Future (just for the fact Flea is in it)
Hallie Berry's movies (just for the fact that she's hot)

 

[Tribute to H2O]

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Knicks Analyst:</div><div class="quote_post">I did.</div>

Oh yes you're right, you did, I missed it.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Jwohl:</div><div class="quote_post">I meant to....</div>

Shame on you! You cant forget about the Godfather. It's not just a movie. It's a way of life. It answers all of life's important questions like, what's today? "Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday". What to bring with you on a trip? "Leave the gun, take the canoli". Great bunch of movies.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Voodoo Child:</div><div class="quote_post">Hallie Berry's movies (just for the fact that she's hot)</div>

Halle Berry is indeed hot. Did you see Monster Ball?

And is there a worse actor than Vin Diesel in the world of acting today? He is just lousy. Triple X was one of the worst movies I have ever seen.


Anyway I think Isiah Thomas should be fired.

 

[Voodoo Child]

<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Halle Berry is indeed hot. Did you see Monster Ball? </div>

Oh yeah. You could almost ignore the crappy plot line for the great nude scenes.

Well, there's always Shaq a.k.a. Steel a.k.a. Kazaam.

Vin Diesel is a terrible actor but Keanu Reeves is equally terrible. His catch phrase is "woah". XXX was terrible because despite the name the only bare chest the whole movie was Vin Diesel's......
