    1. Fight Club (I've seen 60% of the movie)
    2. Raging Bull
    3. Taxi Driver
    4. Scarface (AW HELLS NAW...I know)

    The only ones I can actually think of right now...I'll see them someday. I think I'm just cautiously avoiding a few.

    Driving Miss Daisy (that final scene is simply beautiful) and Million Dollar Baby
    are two of Morgan Freemans' best performances.

    Nope, just ones you have not seen.


    9. Dr. Strangelove
    One of my all time favorites. Three pieces of trivia:

    1) It was the first movie role for James Earl Jones.

    2) The scene where they are going through the survival kit they change
    Slim Pickens line from "A guy could have a pretty good weekend in Dallas
    with all that stuff"
    to "A guy could have a pretty good weekend in Vegas
    with all that stuff"
    out of deference to President Kennedys' assassination.
    If you watch it closely you'll see the words don't line up with his speech.

    3) Slim Pickens was the only person affiliated with the movie who was not
    told it was a comedy. They let him play the role straight which only made
    it even funnier

    "The Dark Knight". Had to be one of, if not the dumbest, and worst movie ever.

    Best movie ever is a stretch, but funny and inventive certainly. The sheer
    number of anachronisms only make it more hilarious.

    Yeah...well, there's something that always gets the guys (I know) in stitches: The campfire beans scene...grown men just laugh to the point of tears, and I still don't get it. Guess I have to see it, huh? Oh well...thank for the recommendations!

    Tell ya what, skip "Blazing Saddles" but I assure the last "Driving Miss Daisy"
    will tug at your heartstrings at least 10 times.

    You could have ten thugs loading up and planning an armed robbery
    and that movie will soften them into mush.

    Don't skip Blazing Saddles!!!

    And Dark Knight was an AWESOME movie. Far an away the best of the Batman franchise (which isn't saying a ton).

    i wouldn't say dark knight is the best of the batman franchise but i think its a pretty good movie. ive seen it twice and enjoyed it both times.

    blazing saddles is a must-see Tlynn. most (if not all) mel brooks movies are must see's.

    havent seen driving miss daisy since i was a little kid, im gonna have to go back and watch that again.
