Well I have an idea.
This thread will be about films in the past. Everyday one of us will post an old movie(basically anything you can watch on dvd or older) and everyone else will discuss how they feel about the movie and if they're feelings have changed since the first time they watched. Then the next day the cycle repeats. There must be only one movie a day, so before you post make sure nobody else posted before you on that day. Also if the the movie is not well known please provide a basic plot summary.

Okay lets get this started...

It will always be a movie that people will say was good, or "great." Yet, people will not know why they say that because they will only remember two things about the whole movie....Pvt. Pyle, which was a great job by D'Onofrio, and "me so horny." which is all anybody remembers about the movie now anyway. This movie is not the pinnacle that people have made it out to be, but a decent one none the less.

The main thing that always sticks out for me in this movie was Sgt. Hartman, that guy cracks me up. I think he does the best take on using the four letter language I've ever heard in a movie.

The first movie I ever saw on VCR. I still love this movie. Unlike a lot of movies I remember from my childhood, this one has not gotten old. For me at least, it has stood up to the test of time.

Yeah, I really consider this one a classic. I especially like the acting by Michael J.Fox and Christopher Lloyd.

Meh. It was alright for a movie. Nothing to get thrilled with.

I'd watch it on a lazy day.

I really like the acting ny Jean Reno. There was alot of good action in the movie. However the hint of sexual attraction between Mathilda(Natalie Portman) and Leon(Jean Reno) kinda creeped me out. But all together pretty good.
