How about:

Animal House-LMAO

Apocalypse Now-Something special in a surrealistic way

Life Force- just to see that chick wander around naked for the first 5 minutes

Yes, I've heard of Blockbusters but I never seem to go there, and some movies don't seem to get much cable play-never seen Animal House on cable..

while not historically too accurate, but close enough.

Enemy at the Gates

otherwise most of the ones mentioned before, and pretty much any western based on a Louis L'amour novel.

Watched "The Guns of Navaronne" night before last. Very good for 1961! Still "The Green Mile", "Apocalypse Now" and "The Great Escape" are for me!

The Last of the Mohicans. Only saw it once, but was REALLY impressed. Good he-man stuff here. I once tried to read a couple of those old "Leatherstocking Tales" books, but this movie version was WAY more interesting to my Jello-like brain.

Rob Roy. Something like Braveheart, but I liked it better.

Legends of the Fall. I like long, sweeping, depressing movies. Had a nice anti-government message too.

Crimson Tide. I thought this was really a gripping movie. It was sort of paradoxical how both guys were "right," depending on your understanding of what their duties were.

The Hunt for Red October was pretty good after having read the book, but I felt people who hadn't read the book would have missed a lot of what was going on. Unless maybe they are submarine crewmen. Many details and the importance of certain things just weren't explained fully in the movie.

Manhunter. I saw this once long ago and found it interesting. I can't even remember it well enough to recommend it as good, but there was a slightly disturbing psychological thing to it that makes me want to see it again.

It's a Wonderful Life. I never get tired of watching this sappy old movie, even though my own life seems less wonderful in comparison. Did I mention I like depressing movies?

palmer, I have to say I thought Air Force One was one of the dumbest movies I ever saw. Just the end part, where they are sliding back and forth on a cable between two aircraft travelling at hundreds of miles per hour. It didn't make any difference which way they wanted to go, just let go and zoom you slide AHEAD through the windstream to the other plane. Then zoom back again, stopping gently in the doorway instead of splattering on the side of the fuselage. And the part where the jet fuel fire climbs against the wind, up the refueling pipe to the tanker? Holy cow, what is jet fuel, like kerosene? Or maybe nitroglycerine?

Fuzz- Topic is what you wouldn't mind seeing again, not the greatest movies made. Okay cut out those parts you mentioned, it's still the dumbest movie you ever saw? Come on! I think Harrison Ford is a great actor, including this movie and he is a Republican! I think every movie has at least one scene which is way out there compared to reality, thats why it's a movie.

PS; I have to add to my list:
   
  Braveheart [%(]
  Gladiator  
  Reservior Dogs
  The Mask Of Zorro

palmer, I like some pretty sappy movies, but find it distracting when the Laws of Nature are violated too frequently.

Ditto on the "Road Warrior". Man that movie has some of the best stunts ever put on film. I remember when Siskel and Ebert reviewed it way back when. I thought they were gonna trash it, but they were blown away by the stunt shots too. They said they couldn't believe no one was killed or seriously injured filming it from watching it in the theatre. Still makes me go Damn, that's gotta hurt many times when I watch it. Also in no particular order...
