I suppose I cheated because I just scrolled down my DVD database program. But is was hard to narrow them down based on a desert island scenario, as opposed to just the best movie of that letter. I could easily do a second one with no repeats (except maybe for Q.)
Actually, if it was a desert island scenario, I probably would have thrown at least one porn in there.
Aargh! It is difficult than I thought it would be…
my bro posted it, and his specific wording which i forgot to include was ‘26 Movies I could watch a million times:’
The only one in mine I’m not sure I could watch a million times is quick and the dead. Damn that letter Q!
I’m telling you, The Quiet Earth is good stuff. As is The Quiet American, but probably less rewatchable.
I like both those lists – possible exception = on deadly ground – is it so bad its funny? – I couldn’t watch Sad-gel’s woodeness once – yet alone a million times
I would have put Quiet Earth if you hadn’t already. I’d get it if they put out a region 1 dvd release.
Seagal directed On Deadly Ground, and it’s like a psychedelic window into his mind and the way he perceives things. Plus Michael Caine with a horrrible dye job is the villain.
OWww. No way I watch enough movies to do this…
I remember seeing Killer Klowns from Outer Space when I was, like, 9…and it scared me for life.
That movie is so wrong on so many levels…
Here is mine…
A = Army Of Darkness
B = (The) Breakfast Club
C = Chasing Amy
D = Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge
E = Evil Dead 2
F = Fast Times at Ridgemont High
G = Ghost World
H = High Fidelity
I = Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
J = Jumanji
K = Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham…
L = Living In Oblivion
M = Mad Cowgirl
N = No Way Out
O = Office Space
P = (The) Professional
Q = Quills (that Kate Winslet…)
R = Ronin
S = Star Wars
T = Terminator 2
U = Unforgiven
V = Vision Quest (just that scene where Madonna is singing “Crazy For You.”)
W = When Harry Met Sally
X = (The) X-Files: Fight The Future
Y = You Can Count On Me
Z = Zapped!
