Every forum of note has to have one, its an unwritten rule!
I might as well start then:
1) The Big Labowski
2) Captain RonWhenever I am feeling down or need a bit of a g up, I pop the Big Labowski in and all my problems disappear.
I reckon I have seen it about 70 odd times, and Captain Ron about 30 odd.
“Dude, if you will it, it is no dream”
November 14, 2009 at 1:09 am #1016303Up::0‘The World According to Garp’ for me. I could watch it every week.
One minute I’m p*ssing myself laughing, the next I’m crying like a baby….November 14, 2009 at 3:38 am #1016304Up::0” The American President”
Then any music DVD’s Im not really a movie buff, my wife is but a live concert DVD gives me all the zip I need.There was a movie I saw with Jack Nicholson and Dianne Keeting had a good laugh but cant remember the movie title.
November 14, 2009 at 6:11 am #1016305Up::0Oh dear…
Ok – here goes!
Titanic (Leonardo deCaprio and Kate Winslet)
Romeo & Juliet (Baz Luhrmann version – Leonardo again! +Claire Danes++++)
Rambo 4.
War of the Worlds (live stage version)
any Jason Bourne film…
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. (Zooey Deschanel)
Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. (BBC original)Too many to list!
What’s your fave?
November 14, 2009 at 6:35 am #1016306Up::0Ahhhh, Titanic!!! I have only watched it once and all I can think of when I consider watching it again is all those bodies everywhere – yeh, and bodies falling off the Big Boat into the water. Not quite my idea of an uplifting story.
My choices?
Anything Lord of the Rings, films (even the how it’s made is exciting), books and music (I have the FULL music of the films on LOTS of CDs including audio DVD versions in surround sound).
Also any movies of the Jane Austin novels.
Plus a few like Master and Commander, Dances With Wolves,,,, give me time I’ll come up with more!
November 14, 2009 at 7:21 am #1016307Up::0I’ve got to admit I haven’t seen half the movies that you guys have mentioned. I can’t split my favourites. It would be between:
– Shawshank Redemption
– The Matrix
– Anchorman
– Top GunNovember 14, 2009 at 8:05 am #1016308Up::0Burgo, post: 18720 wrote:There was a movie I saw with Jack Nicholson and Dianne Keeting had a good laugh but cant remember the movie title.Sounds like Something’s Gotta Give:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0337741/was quite funny – probably wouldn’t put it in my top 10 though
How about “The Notebook” for a soppy girly movie?

We’ve had a few threads on the 4-Hour Work Week and Gerber and Drucker, (and of course the FS book by Robert and Sam!), but there is so much else out there… good and bad!
Thoughts? Anyone got a good book review to start a new thread with?

November 15, 2009 at 10:48 pm #1016312Up::0Hey Jayne,
Maybe a sub-forum for it, so that each book can have its own thread. One thread full of multiple reviews would eventually get hard to navigate amongst all the opinions.
I’m sure that it would get used though, I’m waiting for my library to get the 4 hour work week back in for me, due to that thread!
Cheers,
ChrisNovember 16, 2009 at 12:15 am #1016313Up::0Ok, here’s mine:
– Step Brothers
– Pulp Fiction
– Old School
– Wedding CrashersI managed to get in and see Inglourious Basterds which, despite still being in the movies, has a good chance to edge its way into my list. A few more views on DVD when it’s released will tell all…
November 16, 2009 at 12:52 am #1016314Up::0– Fight Club – is easily the best movie ever made.
– Donnie Darko – another mind-bender favourite.
– Labyrinth – David Bowie in tights. Enough Said.
– The Princess Bride – of course.
– Boiler Room – best sales movie ever.December 2, 2009 at 7:53 pm #1016315December 12, 2009 at 6:10 am #1016316Up::0Hey guys,
Wayne’s World 1 and 2. I know, incredibly low-brow, but so funny.
I really liked Watchmen too.Thanks.
