like most other threads on HoP, this has probly been asked before, but i didnt see it on the first page of social chat so therefore its outdated
one of mine would have to be Donnie Darko.. i think anemone would agree with me if he ever reads this..
another is Waking Life..
i love those kinds of movies, where you just sit and discuss the meaning of it for an hour and a half after its over..
reactions??

Life is Beautiful made me cry so bloody much - I don't think I could ever see it again!
I really want to see a Streetcar named Desire! I missed out by a year on studying it in literature!

yannicus: i agree books are better.. i love watching a movie and then reading the book cuz the book is always better, and that way you wont be dissapointed by the movie if you read the book first.. for example. LOTR, trainspotting, the beach (awesome book btw), im addicted to Dark Tower series by STephen King... anyone? i just hope they dont make movies out of it cuz that would ruin it i think.. although LOTR wasnt that bad as movie..

anyone see cube and hypercube.. hahah, cooooooooolll
ok ok now then mister Stickman
cube was good but Hypercube 
. now I like crap films the are very entertaining take "Tango and cash" or for example terrible terrible film but very entertaining nevertheless 
but hypercube just pushed me over the edge it was so so so bad on so many levels . I have an interesting fact about cube
99.99999999% of men who watch it think it is good and increasing
and
99.99999999% of women who watch it think it is the biggest pile of dog poo! ever
now explain that one
before i met those lot i thought they'd be a bunch of dreadlocked hippies that smoked, set things on fire ,and drank a lot of tea but then when i met them....oh wait (PyroWill)

Ok now then favourite film of all time I would have to say
One flew Over the cuckoo’s Nest
Jack Nicholson best performance I think you all have to agree
makes me cry so much every time I watch it which I have done several million times now. 
Best film I saw within the last 2 years that would have to be K-pax. Think this is one of the only films that actually does the book justice it is just like getting the story form a different perspective just adds to the overall enjoyment. “which was nice

oh i had forgot about the cube, i loved that film, if you are talking about the one i think you are... big rubix cube with a handful of people and a surprise almost in each room
one flew over the cuckoo's nest another great film
there are just so many good films out there... although still have not found my fave of all time

ive never read one flew over the cookoos nest, but i heard that its from the perspective of that mute native american guy
that should be interesting..

Umm, good films...
Saw Moulin Rouge last night. I want to live in an elephant.

Trainspotting. (all so terribly true. I have been to that toilet!)
Caberet
I love sci fi, but I have yet to see the cube, though I reckon I'd like it but my bloke wouldn't.
Mostly I see a film when it comes on TV. Don't go to the pictures much. In fact the last time was the Matrix and I was semiconcious through out, waste of money. Should have been Trainspotting really.
