Has anyone seen the little preview of "Star Trek Nemesis" ? I'll try to find a link........It looks good. www.ifilm.com Can anyone tell me why I can't get the damned links to work?

The Backdoor Lambada

Just got it this week.  Four more beers and that sucker is GOING IN THE PLAYA!

The "collections" are packaged the way they are for one reason - to sell the worst movies with the best ones. I highly recommend buying the movies individually. That way, you do not end up owning such stink bombs as "Moonraker."

Anyway, since your genre of choice seems to be action / sci-fi / war type stuff, allow me to make some more suggestions:

- Ben Hur
- Boondock Saints
- Braveheart
- The Bridge on the River Kwai

Just thought I'd give you some ideas. You have embarked on a dangerous addiction.

I have one of the Bond box sets and all the movies are good ones.  It doesn't have Moonraker in it (and I agree that Moonraker blows).  But you're right, since you probably wouldn't save much money buying the box sets versus buying the movies individually, that picking your favorite Bond movies to buy is the way to go.

Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels
Pulp Fiction
From Dusk til Dawn
Friday
Jackie Brown
Four Rooms

The Longest Day

eight legged freaks and the new starwars both are good.

Add to the list:
Platoon
American History X

Do you know why this thread sucks?

Thuis thread sucks because as others name movies, I remember that I once owned many of them. Now they are not here. In other words, I loaned them to someone and have not gotten them back. Curse my senility!!

Lord of the Rings and the Matrix are both impressive DVDs. To fully apprieciate the Matrix you need a surround sound system.

Glengarry GlenRoss!

One of my all time favorites.  Best dialogue ever.  Just came out on DVD last week.

Yes, you need at least these:

Red Dawn
Aliens: Special Edition
Lord of the Rings, Extended Edition
HEAT
T2: Ultimate Edition
Tremors

Heat

Gettysburg....  Tactics from the bow and lance day .vs basically modern weapons. The bravery of those men in the face of devastating fire power is unreal.

John Wayne ....The Searchers  Simply the best movie he ever made.

If its on DVD yet Uncommon Valor

Tombstone

Reign of Fire is out. I just finished DLing it and now it is time to burn. [:D]

Just do what I just did. Rent them all on netflix.  Thanks for the list guys I just added most of these to my order que.
