What Movie Should I Watch?

[jallenw]

Alright, your job is to tell me the name of a movie.  If I haven't seen it already, I'm going to watch it.  I will watch every suggestion (if I haven't seen it already) in the order that they are posted.  Please only suggest 1 movie.  Thanks for your help, I look forward to enjoying your recommendations.

Shouldn't this be in Off-Topic?

[jallenw]

Wait? General discussion isn't for general discussion? 

Sorry, I missed something.  My bad for posting in the wrong spot.

Yeah, this is kinda off topic, but I guess I'll start off

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

Wait? General discussion isn't for general discussion? 

"General Discussion" is for Elements related general discussion. anything not Elements related goes under "Off-Topic".

Here are some of my absolute favourites, all of which are set in the organized-crime surrounding:

GhostDog (Jim Jarmusch)
-> Forest Whitaker as a postmodern "Samurai" takes out the italian mob, very poetic

Brother (Takeshi Kitano)
-> Takeshi Kitano as high-ranking Yakuza-Boss got banished to L.A. and takes on the whole city with just a handful of loyals, very cool and brutal

For an amazingly close-to-real-world and awesome TV-show:

TheWire (David Simon)
-> behind the scenes of Baltimores drug-trafficing and its prosecution, very realistic and illuminating - a TV-show with movie-qualities

[Boingo]

Miller's Crossing  Probably want to watch it twice just to see how tight the film is.

If you want to see a cool movie that not so many people have seen, I know a couple of good Korean movies.

Memories of Murder
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0353969/

It's an awesome Korean serial killer movie that is based on real life events in 1986.


Here's another one:

Oldboy
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0364569/

It's about a guy who's been a prisoner in an apartment for 15 years, and after getting released, goes out to find the person who was behind it.


These two have been rated "AWESOME" by me personally and I recommend everyone to watch them.

There are also many other good Korean movies. They are great diversion from the usual Hollywood crap.

Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

Best. Movie. Ever.

Wall-E and Up. A little bit of childhood never hurt anyone, and they are really both brilliant.

Yeah! Oldboy is really good... And different. I really recommend it  8)
