Man, you guys managed to piss off rocketpig in record time! I definitely see where he is coming from though, as I stem from the same line of expertise/artistry/snobbery.

1. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
2. Memento
3. Il Conformiste

I kind of want to say The Usual Suspects, but I have only seen it recently and have only seen it once. But it definitely gets an honorable mention.

Other favs:

Amelie
Singin' In the Rain
The Third Man
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
It's a Wonderful Life



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

Why do I have the feeling that your answer ain't serious?

You question this, but not the guy who said "Night at the Roxbury"?



The dedication you show to any particular console or company is inversely proportional to the number of times you have gotten laid. If you get laid enough, even if you prefer a certain brand, you just don't give enough of a shit to argue about it on the internet.

1: Rocky 1
2: Rocky 3
3: Rocky 4

Sad...but very close to true...



I always look for a woman who has a tattoo. I see a woman with a tattoo, and I’m thinking, okay, here’s a gal who’s capable of making a decision she’ll regret in the future.

HA! I had the exact same thought as I was reading this thread. It's like everyone thought the thread was "Name the Top 200 Selling Movies of the Last 15 Years".

My own picks:

1. Ghostbusters
2. Easy Rider
3. Dr. Strangelove or: How I Stopped Worrying and Love the Bomb

 



Tag: Became a freaking mod and a complete douche, coincidentally, at the same time.
