Beaches
Sleepless in Seattle
Pride & Prejudice
Bend it Like Beckham
When Harry Met Sally
Splash
Miss Congenality
West Side Story
Gone with the Wind
Shag
DeGrassi High Finale

EvilPrincess - you should bring it to the next movie night

 

haha, that's what he gets!

oh definitely...i haven't watched it in a while either...good music too.

Oooh, i liked Bend it Like Beckham...i have that one too. (one of the many movies i watch when Clem is not home. he should be glad i don't make him watch chick flicks!)

 

What's Shag?

 

its a dance movie came out around the same time as dirty dancing - it has Pheobe Cates in it...

We used to watch Girls Just Wanna Have Fun when I was in middle school evertime we did a sleepover - which was almost every weekend

 

yup, that was definitely a "sleepover movie"

oh my god - you made me remember Midnight Madness...does anyone else remember that? I'm sure if i wathched it now, i would think it's dumb, but i liked it when i was little.

 

Uggghhh...This is heading in the wrong direction...

 

never saw it but i know someone who just recently rented it... now I want to rent it

 

I think next Girls Night should be at MY house!!!

Okay, getting back to the thread...some of mine are:

Silence of the Lambs
The Women
Clerks
LOTR trilogy

I know there are more, that i just can't think of...brain malfunction again. And yes Bro Halo, i know i can't use Monday morning as an excuse this time. This time, it's been a long week, and so friday afternoon at 3:14pm, i'm worthless...

 

sounds good to me - i need to go bump that thread...

another great movie is... Month Python and the Holy Grail!

 

Ok, Clem, to keep you happy again, i'll get back to topic..

didn't you forget Full metal Jacket...at least the first half hour anyway.
And Miracle ROCKED. totally cool movie. And i'll always remember Clem took me to see it for our anniversary!

 

DUDE...I'll narrow it..R. Lee Ermey in Full Metal Jacket....Awesome!!

 

war movies are good... I love Platoon - especially the part when William DeFoe bites it, classic scene

 

My favorite movies of all time are:

Halloween(Probably the reason I got interested in being a psych)
Hair never saw the Broadway musical, but the movie makes me want to cry every time I watch it.
Fried Green Tomatoes(I just had to put a "chick flick" on here)

 

Bottle Rocket
Shaun of the Dead
Some Like it Hot

and many more i just can't think of right now--

I agree on Black Hawk Down, i don't know what it is about that film, but i can't help but watch it, i'm not normally into ridley scott, but everytime it comes on i have to watch it-- and then cry and cry at the end-- i'm such a sucker....

 

thank you Cyndi! I had Some Like It Hot on the brain and then I blanked when it came to typing it...

Only seen Black Hawk Down once, don't remember much but being aggrivated about the main guys pants which were way to loose for a real man in the military. Other then that I have good memories of it.

Oh another GREAT movie: Enemy at the Gates
