    - Sweeney Todd
    - Schindler's List
    - American History X
    - Full Metal Jacket
    - The Fountain
    - No Country For Old Men
    Because I'm somewhere in between,
    My love and my agony.

    Hmm, as far as I can remember:-

    - Princess and the Frog ~ yeah, I missed the movie in the big screen
    - 300 ~ I'm keen to know if the producers have adopted it, any part or the idea, from the bible - Chapter: Judges.
    - Wind Talkers
    - Selective movies from Hilary Swank ~ I'm keen to learn more about her performances after watching Freedom Writers. Any recommendation?

    - Gattaca ~ heard from SS about this movie and on the look out for it!
    What can I say? I'm still standing! No weapon against me shall prosper! I am more than a conqueror!!!

    I don't care to sit by the window on an airplane. If I can't control it, why look?

    I heard that 300 sucked.
    Gattaca is probably one of my favourite movies.

    Boys Don't Cry, if you haven't watched it yet. That's the movie that catapulted her to fame.

    I have both movies on my laptop, but I just haven't had the time to watch them yet.

    To anyone who hasn't seen Pulp Fiction - go see it now! It's probably one of the best movies I've ever seen. I don't think Tarantino could ever really top that one. Though Inglourious Basterds was very nice too, especially if you have somewhat of a German background - you can really catch the subtle things that makes it a great movie.

    Jackie Chan movie's are rather funny.As for Scarface,its pretty violent.The famous quote:Say hello to my little friend.

    I also saw Aliens collection.I am hoping they could continue to Aliens 4.

    @Canuck21,saw Godfather complete.Although,I find the first one much better.Its rather a long story,but I can understand the character who started out poor coming from Italy and trying to adapted into the streets of NYC isn't easy life;eventually became who he is.

    Continuation:-

    - Night At the Museum 1 ~ I watched the part 2 and was told that the humourous adventure pales in compare to part 1.

    - The Digital Fortress ~ I know this title doesn't exist in the big screen (as yet) but I look forward to watch it. Since Angels & Demons, Da Vinci's Code already turned into films, I don't see why this Dan Brown series cannot be done. And, it can be as interesting provided the director does a good job (including selection of fitting cast).

    I know there was one movie that glamour-ed Swank. Now you've reminded me! Thanks! And, Freedom Writer is inspirational for me, especially due to the fact that I live outside US.

    I think Guo Xiang is right since Hilary won her first Oscar for Boys Don't Cry. Million Dollar Baby further established her credibility as an A-list actress.

    Movies I want to see include Climber's High, Golden Slumber, Some Like It Hot, Shrink, Precious, and District 9.

    Definitely a must watch. Her performance in this movie was phenomenal. She had become one of my all-time favorite actresses ever since.

    My list in no particular order:
    -Schindler's List
    -The Shawshank Redemption
    -Inglourious Basterds
    -Pulp Fiction
    -City of God
    -Avatar
    -Slumdog Millionaire

    and basically, anything I haven't already seen on IMDB's top 250.

    Hmm, "Inglorious Basterds" would have to be on my list, too.
    My best friend was raving about it some time ago. Heard something about Brad Pitt's accent.
    At least I'll get a good laugh, to say the least.

    Out of all the movies on that list this would be the one you can't miss.Very clever movie I do highly recommended it.I saw it about 2-3 times,although its a long movie but Steven King really know how to capture you into the story.Note:No horror in this one.

    I concur, The Shawshank Redemption is GREAT. Don't wait anymore, I saw it like 5 times if not more!

    Bringing Up Baby (Katharine Hepburn and Cary Grant), have been looking for this movie for ages...sigh.
    When I wake up in the morning I always remind myself to 'Seize the Day.'
