[JohnKleeb]

I am gonna head up to best buy in about 10 mins lets say, and I am gonna update my DVD collection. I am gonna get a new copy of Goodfellas because my old one is screwy, the new special edition of saving private ryan, now I need 2-3 new DVDs. I was thinking Schindler's list. but I dont kow.

[reprehensor]

[JohnKleeb]

[Speck Tater]

18. and/or Kill Bill. It doesn't get any better. (nt)

[BigMcLargehuge]

2. Onmyoji (Traditional Japanese fantasy story)

also recently saw and loved:

Universal Dracula Boxed set featuring 1931 Dracula with original score, new score by Philip Glass and Kronos Quartet, Spanish Dracula (same film with a few different scenes and all Spanish dialogue {subbed}) Son of Dracula, Daughter of Dracula, and a host of short documentaries. If you like Golden Age horror, this DVD is the SHIT man.

Bubba Ho-Tep

[AwakeAtLast]

4. Band of Brothers

I want it for myself.

[JohnKleeb]

6. own it, got it two xmas's ago

[Tripper11]

5. Dazed and Confused.....

I like your choices in movies there JOhn, but you need to lighten up a little to, know what I mean?

[JohnKleeb]

7. ahh?

nah waht kinda movie is that? I like a good action story, a good drama, good comedy etc. Even an occasional foreign film is nice.

[Tripper11]

17. A good comedy.....

ntohing too taxing, very fun to watch. I know you're a young guy, but it's set in the mid 70's ish and is about a bunch of kids about to graduate and their last day of high school.

21. Dazed and Confused is possibly one of the 10 worst movies of all time

Just my opinion, of course, but it stunk on ice.

[LibertyorDeath]

8. Snatch & Lock Stock n 2 smoking barrels

[Tummler]

9. You might want to wait on Goodfellas

There's a 2-disc special edition scheduled to come out on August 17. It should be a big improvement over the craptacular, outdated "flipper" (2 sided) edition currently out there.

[Burma Jones]

10. The Big Lebowski

It looks as though you need something in a lighter vein......

[Wickerman]

11. Groundhog's Day with Bill Murray

to round out your day with some comedy

[lazarus]

12. Heh

Snatch, Fight Club (lots of good extras), Ocean's Eleven.

[Nomad559]

13. The Last Supper

Another vote for The Big Lebowski, but I also recommend "The Last Supper"

It's a political movie (Comedy)

[Feanorcurufinwe]

14. Freaks and Geeks

if it's not out of your budget, you won't be disappointed.

[Twillig]

15. Do you have 'Spinal Tap'?

The parody "rocumentary" of the fading english rockers/metalband?

It's a great DVD. You can watch the non-commented film, then turn on the comments and watch it again. Guest, McKean, and Shearer all are in character (Tufnel, St.Hubbins, and Smalls) for the comments. It's like a whole new movie. :)

[Speck Tater]

19. A Mighty Wind and Comic Book, the Movie are also both excellent

samples of the mocumentary genre.

[LiviaOlivia]

16. Get a comedy or two.

I recently bought "Happy, Texas" and "Go" and have enjoyed these comedies every time I've watched them. Steve Zahn is amazing.

Be careful with too much heavy-themed movies, regardless how great they may be; everyone needs a good laugh.

"Jackie Brown" is Tarantino's best in my opinion.

20. Mooseport is a good politcal comedy. (nt)
