In no particular order….

1. Street Fighter 2 (the animated movie)
2. Princess Mononoke
3. Ninja Scroll
4. Waynes World
5. Some Like it Hot

as you can see I dont think much about plot or character, just if its good. On that topic I watched Spawn today (the one from a bit ago based on the comic book) and have to say i was impressed. Some of the cgi (though may have been animatronics at parts) was astounding for a film at least 10 years old. Though some….was shite.

But a few that I like to watch quite regularly are (in no paticular order):

Akira
Donnie Darko
Vampire Hunter D
Winds of Amnesia
Planes, Trains & Automobiles
Twin Town
Going off big time
Dead mans shoes

Sorry I know that’s not 5.

Recent good films i’ve seen are:

Mancurian candidate
Layer Cake

Haven’t seen Ninja Scroll. I’d like to though. It was around the time that it came out that I stopped buying anime for some reason. I think I just got disapointed with the new art on dominion tank police and the later guyvers.

I love the bit with the Koga ninjas stealthin through the trees. Also how could I forget Blues Brithers….treating Toys R Us with the contempt it deserves. Someone needed to teach them how to spell (and some grammar to boot).

dazed and cofused! classic rite of passage gubbins, in the great tradition of the last picture show and american grafitti.

has anyone seen richard licklaters film befoire dazed? its called slacker and it has no plot, it randomly follows arbitary people around for a day, it has no obvious structure, but its one of the most satisfying and original films ive seen.

dark days… is a must see.. people do actually live underground for fuck sake

requiem for a dream… not a wasted frame, character or word…intensity

robert de niro in taxi driver… wasting child pimps… superhero

there was a jack nicholson film i watched (4 years ago?) where he retires from the pohleese and then there’s a load of psychological nooo about if he’s sharp or mad… starts with him fishing and drinking in a shack over a frozen alaskan lake …dunno the title…

easy rider

baraka

quadrophenia… it could be raving

butterfly effect… good indy

square eyes! :apathy:

in no particular order…

A clockwork orange
If (had some of the same actors IIRC)
The Italian Job (NOT THE US REMAKE FFS!)
Babylon (rather obscure late 70s film about a reggae sound system in West London and how they are destroyed by racism)

And on a lighter note

The Great St Trinians Train Robbery (how many films have a “train” chase? – perhaps rather un-PC portrayal of Asian guard by Frankie Howerd in blackface, but they just didn’t have many Asian actors until the mid 1970s…)

Yep – that’s “IF”…

the scene where the teacher rides his bike into class is fucking hilarious – its a perfect run down a narrow corridor full of bookshelves etc with a sharp turn at the end – whilst singing “to be a pilgrim”

Babylon is here. Actually made in 1980 – I thought it was done earlier..

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080406/

The lead guy was in Aswad but was also the (only) black kid in the “double deckers” (if it wasn’t repeated in your area in the late 80s ask your mum/dad, or the next ageing hippy you meet)
