You might like the Science of Sleep.

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 9:50pm

The Boondock Saints

and

A Beautiful Mind.

Todow on Feb 13 '08 at 9:50pm

He Was A Quiet Man

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 9:51pm

Yeah, that was on my list. Haha, sorry, my list cut off at "I [Heart] Huckabees" for some reason until I edited my post. I think that it had something to do with the

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 9:51pm

with the "less than symbol" and "number 3" that I had in there. Man, that's weird.... if you put that in a post, it deletes everything after it.

Puma7 on Feb 13 '08 at 9:51pm

Have you seen The Office?

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 9:52pm

I have the Boondock Saints. It just isn't one of my favorites... But I do have it!

palosv377 on Feb 13 '08 at 9:52pm

The Diving Bell and the Butterfly

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 9:52pm

Nope. I don't have TV (I have the Six Feet Under series on DVD)

Sir_Minimus on Feb 13 '08 at 9:53pm

do you only like anderson's rushmore and tenenbaums? because i love the life aquatic.

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 9:55pm

Actually, I NEVER saw The Life Aquatic all the way through. I'll get around to it though. I have Bottle Rocket on DVD, too.

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 9:55pm

okay, to make up for The Boondock Saints:

Requiem for a Dream

and

Pi

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 9:56pm

Sir Minimus, did you see The Darjeeling Limited when it was in theaters? I didn't get to... But if you did, was it good?

Puma7 on Feb 13 '08 at 9:56pm

Rent or buy the 3 seasons of the Office, as well as the 6 or so episodes from season 4 online. You will not regret it.

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 9:57pm

yes. puma is so right.

do yourself a favor and buy the office 1-3.

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 9:57pm

I have Requiem. Haha. But I've never seen Pi.

Book, did you watch The Fountain? It's from the same director, I believe. I didn't really get it.

I have a lot of others DVDs that I just didn't mention because although they are worthy of owning on DVD, I wouldn't say that they are worthy of my "Top Favorite Movies" list... Haha.

Puma7 on Feb 13 '08 at 9:58pm

Another good one - Happy Gilmore...

...I like comedies.

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 9:58pm

Puma and Book, I am a fan of Rainn Wilson (just because he had a role on Six Feet Under though... haha)

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 9:58pm

haha, strike two for me.

and the fountain is supposed to be arriving tomorrow from netflix.

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 10:00pm

Well Book, don't listen to me, actually. I'll be honest... I watched The Fountain when I was wasted. So that's probably why it didn't make sense to me. But all I remember was that it was really repetitive and it was messing with me because I was like "Wait... Didn't I JUST see this scene? Huh? What?"

Haha... sooo... Maybe after you watch it, you can let me know if it actually IS good.

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 10:00pm

i am so excited to watch it.

did you like it?

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 10:02pm

ahh, okay. haha.

some of the reviews said that it is all over the place; very spontaenous.

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 10:02pm

spontaneous*

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 10:02pm

I don't remember if I liked it or not. Haha. The best explanation that I can give of The Fountain is that it is repetitive. That I remember.

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 10:03pm

alright, if it's anything like the style of pi and requiem for a dream, i am sure i will love it.

Puma7 on Feb 13 '08 at 10:03pm

Rainn Wilson is in The Office... so... I don't know where I was going.

Sir_Minimus on Feb 13 '08 at 10:04pm

i couldnt make it to darj because there were no theatres around that were showing it.. but all my friends really liked it. it comes out on video the 26th and i am pumped.

i am kind of a wes anderson fanboy... or whatever.

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 10:06pm

Haha, yeah Puma, that's why I mentioned Rainn... I know that he's a big star on The Office or whatever. And so is Steve Carell, right? He's a funny guy. Is the show quirky or full of dry humor or what? I might check it out; I've heard good things about it.

Sir, I'll probably buy the Darjeeling Limited when it comes out even though I have never seen it... But that's because I trust Wes Anderson films, so...

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 10:07pm

the office needs to come back on.

but not on thursdays because i won't be able to watch lost.

Sir_Minimus on Feb 13 '08 at 10:08pm

truth.

Nigil on Feb 13 '08 at 10:08pm

Nigil on Feb 13 '08 at 10:09pm

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 10:10pm

i wish my ex girlfriend hadn't taken fight club from my room without me knowing about it.

i really miss that movie.

kayceislost on Feb 13 '08 at 10:11pm

Me and you and everyone we know

the squid and the whale

ill list more in a sec. you like a lot of the same movies as me... so im trying to think of the ones i have that you dont.

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 10:12pm

Haha, Nigil. Just put this blog on your watch list and we can both benefit from it :)

Honestly, my all-time favorite movie out of all of the ones listed above is probably Fight Club. Amazing movie that's actually BETTER than the book (in my opinion)... Good message, too.

Now time to go be a good little consumer and shop for some shirts on Threadless!! Haha... yeeeeah...

Ccraiger on Feb 13 '08 at 10:12pm

You should watch the dangerous lives of alter boys.. i love that movie

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 10:13pm

Yeah, Book, my old roommate stole my Fight Club movie!! Two disc special edition!!!! Along with numerous other DVDs before he moved out :( Dick.

But I bought Fight Club again (along with a lot of the other movies that I needed to replace after he moved)

Nigil on Feb 13 '08 at 10:14pm

sin city, grindhouse, crank

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 10:14pm

haha that sucks.

i just ordered requiem for a dream from alibris last night because my ex also pocketed that one. i need to order fight club tonight.

Puma7 on Feb 13 '08 at 10:14pm

Here's some clips I pulled up on youtube of the office... some moments in the episodes are so funny I am laughing way into the next scene. It's just... I don't even know. It's so funny.

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 10:15pm

you need to find the "i'm prison mike!" scene, please.

Nigil on Feb 13 '08 at 10:16pm

You should watch the dangerous lives of alter boys.. i love that movie

Imaginary heroes is not half bad either with emile hirsch as well

fuck-a-doodle-doo on Feb 13 '08 at 10:16pm

Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels

Snatch

Fistful of Dollars

For a Few Dollars More

Awesome: I Fucking Show That (beastie boys concert)

The Warriors

Dave Chapelles's Block Party

Shaun of the Dead

Hot Fuzz

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 10:17pm

apocalypto.

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 10:17pm

Nigil, I have Sin City on DVD :)

I didn't get to see Grindhouse, though. I should check that out....

As for Crank... Jason Statham?! He is a sexy man. Haha. But I thought that it would be cheesy... And yes, for as sexy as he is, did you ever see Transporter or Transporter 2? That guy DOES do some cheesy movies, unfortunately.

fuck-a-doodle-doo on Feb 13 '08 at 10:17pm

Oh sorry, that was - Awesome I fucking Shot That. oops

casemee on Feb 13 '08 at 10:19pm

Doodle-Doo -- I have Lock, Stock as well as Snatch. As for the rest of this list, I haven't seen any of those movies... Thanks for the extensive list of suggestions!!

Book, I saw Apocalypto in theaters. It was actually a very good movie... But I just don't know if I would buy it because I would REALLY have to be in the mood for it. It's pretty hard to get through at times (the ritual scene? Yeah, that's just... ridiculous....)

Nigil on Feb 13 '08 at 10:19pm

american gangsters wasnt bad either although its like 3 hours long

book02683 on Feb 13 '08 at 10:21pm

wow, i am so glad you bought pan's labyrinth. it is one of my all time favorites. you have to, have to, have to buy Pi and A Beautiful Mind, though. they are spectacular.

fuck-a-doodle-doo on Feb 13 '08 at 10:21pm

And there was a time that Jason Stathem did good movies.

"Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels" and "Snatch" are two very good examples
