    My ex made me watch Stardust and I must say it was quite enjoyable.

    "I mean, don't you just want to feel that cozy little box grip down on your Johnson?" is the funniest description of sex I have ever heard. :D

    Any of the Lethal Weapon series

    Die Hard used to be in there but the first DVDs we owned when we got a dvd player were Die Hard 1 & 2. I watched them just a little too much and had to find my 80s cop fix elsewhere

    I always find A Matter of Life and Death uplifting.

    Or anything with Terry-Thomas, the scoundrel.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,794 ✭✭✭Aongus Von Bismarck


    The Dollar Trilogy, especially A Fistful of Dollars.

    2001, A Space Odyssey. It's just so ambitious, cinematic, and strangely soothing for large parts of it while always having the menacing backdrop running through it.

    I'll openly admit to having a soft spot for Clueless.

    He’s great in ‘School for Scoundrels’.

    The tide is turning…

    Oh, The Field.

    I know it all - God made the world, but seaweed made that field boy.
    And every line gets better. And everyone thinks its crap till they see it. And its class. And Sean Bean dies.

    Clueless is a great film and rightfully highly regarded. Not a guilty pleasure at all.

    Anything from Studio Ghibli or Laika Studios
