responding to Phil's post If I get that old School I tend to play Afterburn, Hang On, Pole Position 1 and 2, and Rad Racer. I also liked the Street Fighter series very much. I still play it alot now and can't wait to get Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and Capcom vs. Snk 2 EO for Xbox. (they supposidly have abosolutly no slowdown at all unlike the minor slowdowns in the dreamcast (I miss that console) games when things got super hectic.) (what can I say I am a glutton for the underdog console. I love the controller of the xbox and ripping CDs are awesome) but thats off topic so I'll leave it at that.:D

And a well deserved one, too. As a matter of fact, the movie deserved ALL the Oscars it got, and maybe some it didn't.
 
I just thought of another good movie, Rustler's Rhapsody. It makes fun of old westerns, stars Tom Berrenger, Patrick Wayne,(The Duke's kid), Andy Griffith as the head bad guy, and even has a surprise ending. It's hilarious.
 
I can't think of a favorite movie I have. Theres alot of movies I've liked but out of the latest ones I saw the Transporter that one was cool.
 
I love Dazed and Confused, never seen shawshank redemption though.

In Dazed and Confused that talk about a Dollar Bill, I laughed and laughed :D
 
I don't ahave a single favorite movie, except possibly Wing Commander;) or Akira. There's too many different types of films out there to pick one overall the others. So heres my categorized favorites.

Action:
Hard Boiled

Fantasy:
FOTR (although from what I've heard about the Two towers it'll probably rplace it)

Comedy:
Fierce Creatures or Strange Brew(it's a tie)

Drama:
American History X

That's just the basic list. I'm not really into horror movies, though there are some good ones I've seen I haven't really decided a favorite.
 
I have several....LOTR, Saving Private Ryan, Gladiator, Braveheart, 13th Warrior, just to name a few

I Injoyed those also. I didnt really like 13th Warrior when I first saw it but after I saw it the second time it grew on me.
 
Favorite Movie:

For some of you older guys, it's possible to remember the first Star Wars movie in 1977. That will always be my favorite science fiction / space war movie, hands down. As for war...nothing that's come out in the last 20 years holds a candle to ones from the '60's and '70's: A Bridge Too Far,etc. Saving Private Ryan? I suppose if one rates movies based on shock and revulsion value, that first 15 minutes or so will always stick in my head...too bad I can't quite get rid of it.
Personally, the time I went to the theater when I was about 10 years old and saw Midway in "Sensurround" has to be about the best war movies ( that's 1976 or so ). For accuracy, the older stuff is definitely better; for special effects, the newer stuff.
