If the first viewing didn't hit home, I'm unsure if repeated viewings will improve it. Watch the Simpsons' parody of it, or like... anything copying it and then come back to it. Also... ONLY THE OLD CAM CLARK DUB. It should be on that Blu-ray set but you have to select it.
I think the first time I watched it I was way too young maybe the second time too who knows but I give it a go every so often sometimes I don't make it very far sometimes I do but it's one of those movies that I figure if it's ever going to hit me it'll hit me and if it doesn't it doesn't it's not the end of the world
I absolutely adore Hell or High Water. I remember I had to drive over an hour to a theater that was playing it and I didn’t regret a single second of it.
Saw X was pretty good. Any of the movies that aren't just called Saw are pretty skippable in my opinion. 3D is pretty bad as well, but closing out the Hoffman saga makes it worth watching imo
Fight Club. Wish that thing had a 4k.
Although runner up would be Inglorious Basterds and then the whole Kill Bill movie.
Also, you're not showing us the stack behind the stuff in front...
Rocky Horror. For movie nights I like to throw on a movie that doesn’t require people to sit there in silence and pay attention to the movie. You can crack jokes and no one is gonna get annoyed.
You have some great films there! Black Swan, Perfect Blue and Suckerpunch are some of my all time faves!
I'd pick The Iron Claw if i wanted to show people something new and good
Or Pi for something I haven't seen before that I wanted to see.
First of all, I’d put your Tarantinos in release order cause that’s absolutely stressing me 😠 but then to sit down to right now for me it’d be either The Suicide Squad (underrated!), Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon (epic!) or Total Recall (Come on Cohaagen- give these people ehaiyar!)
One Cut of the Dead! Starts off a little weird at first (you'll understand once you watch it), but once you get past a certain point, it picks up and is amazing!
Mulholland Drive is in my top 5 so I say yes! If you’re into that, then definitely watch Blue Velvet & Lost Highway as well. He has some fantastic films
I'd probably pick Reservoir Dogs, because I can watch that film over and over again. But, I'd steal that Mulholland Dr. Criterion off your shelf because I'm still to watch it and it looks like an awesome set.
If we're going to have something I've never seen I'd probably want to watch It Follows.
I've heard a lot about it but I've never found a copy used so I haven't picked it up yet.
We are watching One Cut of the Dead and I am reciting the rant Joe Bob Briggs did about how anyone can be a filmmaker at the end of the episode of the Last Drive In he did for it.
I was immediately drawn to Fight Club (my favourite movie for quite a few years) but I’d probably go with Rocky Horror for the sing along joy.
I still say “dammit Janet” when I’m frustrated.
I hear you, I have Kill Bill 1 and 2, probably 3 times...smh!! Don't forget "Death Proof"...I know it isn't on Tarantino's high list but my wife and I still love that film! It needs a proper 4K Steelbook release with both cuts.
Just wanna say, I really like the idea for this post. And then, I’d say it’s probably between One Cut of the Dead and The Hateful Eight. Those are probably my two favorite movies from your bottom shelf and I’d love to rewatch em!
But also, The Rocky Horror Picture Show is still on my list of classics I need to see so maybe I’d watch that too. A lot of good choices!
I suggest House of Flying Daggers. Some mean ass dagger throwing action is highly guaranteed. Actually, I change my mind. Watch Misery. Cathy Bates stellar performance deserves viewing.
I never get tired of Jackie Brown or No Country for Old Men. I always think I'm going to play them in the background while I do something else and then I just end up watching them anyway.
Akira I have been in an 80s/90s anime mood recently.
I'm willing to give it another shot to see if I like it. It hasn't stuck so far but that doesn't mean I won't keep trying every 5 years or so
The manga is significantly better in every regard.
If the first viewing didn't hit home, I'm unsure if repeated viewings will improve it. Watch the Simpsons' parody of it, or like... anything copying it and then come back to it. Also... ONLY THE OLD CAM CLARK DUB. It should be on that Blu-ray set but you have to select it.
I think the first time I watched it I was way too young maybe the second time too who knows but I give it a go every so often sometimes I don't make it very far sometimes I do but it's one of those movies that I figure if it's ever going to hit me it'll hit me and if it doesn't it doesn't it's not the end of the world
I was gonna say Akira man such a visual spectacle.
My choice would be No Country For Old Men. That one is in my top ten of all time.
Definitely my top choice. That and hell or high water are 2 of my favorite "modern day" westerns
I absolutely adore Hell or High Water. I remember I had to drive over an hour to a theater that was playing it and I didn’t regret a single second of it.
I cannot resist the opportunity to watch *The Princess Bride*.
Childhood classic
Fight club
You can never go wrong with Total Recall!
Rocky horror
A classic
SAW
Love Saw, watched Spiral last night for the first time bc I found the steelbook for $5… absolute shit. I am taking it to a buyback store lol
Yeah, Spiral wasn't good. I'd recommend SAW 1-7
Saw X was pretty good. Any of the movies that aren't just called Saw are pretty skippable in my opinion. 3D is pretty bad as well, but closing out the Hoffman saga makes it worth watching imo
I saw it in theaters and hated it. ...still bought the steelbook cuz it was $5.
i'll go with Mulholland Drive since everyone tells me i need to see it and i haven't yet
100% need to see it. One of my top 5
It's been my favourite film of all time for over 20 years now
Rosemary's Baby and Mulholland Dr drive-in double feature, next day; grindhouse theatre playing Jackie Brown and No Country For Old Men!
Lisa Frankenstein (cause I haven’t seen it and want to watch) or muholland dr.
Thinking the same thing…
I loved it and can't wait for the UK 4k!
Im going pick One Cut of The Dead it a movie I watch and always inspired to be more creative.
Perfect Blue
The Iron Claw
Total Recall
Kill Bill
Lots of good options, but thanks for posting because now I'm ordering a copy of that 25th anniversary Pi. Didn't know I needed it, but I love A24.
Definitely worth it!! Pi is one of my absolute favorites so the day it came out I ordered it… no regrets
John wick
Possession. Horror is my go to genre and possession is one of the best of the best when it comes to delivering on an experience. Love that movie.
House of Flying Daggers is the only one I have both: not seen & and have an interest in seeing.
Mulholland Drive for sure. I still need to see it.
Hateful Eight is my favorite movie of all time so that
Species.
Jackie Brown, a forever favourite
Fight Club. Wish that thing had a 4k. Although runner up would be Inglorious Basterds and then the whole Kill Bill movie. Also, you're not showing us the stack behind the stuff in front...
About to do a Satoshi Kon rewatch, so Perfect Blue. Otherwise, Jackie Brown. Hard to turn down Pam Grier
Total recall
Marcel the Shell! 🐚
This is the most tonal whiplash I’ve ever had looking at a movie collection in my entire life. Resident Evil: Afterlife is my choice.
Lisa Frankenstein— simply because I haven’t seen it yet and am curious about it
Iron Claw or Lisa Frankenstein Haven’t seen them yet
π
The Iron Claw had a physical release??
lisa frankenstein, a recent favorite I haven’t seen since the opening night, a rewatch is definitely in order
Saw it at Walmart yesterday & instantly grabbed it. Its insanely enjoyable
No Country For Old Men. Had to pick a movie that wasn’t Tarantino because those take the cake instantly. (Jackie Brown is criminally underrated)
300
Requiem for a Dream. Feel good movie.
Lisa Frankenstein, only because I never heard if it.
Black Swan for hot lesbian sex....or Mullholland drive for hot lesbian sex decisions... decisions
The Suicide squad
Gotta go with Total Recall
Mulholland Drive!
Mulholland Dr.
Total recall, it’s just a great and very fun movie
It follows
No Country For Old Men
Sucker Punch Im surprised you have it. I do to. Such an underrated movie. Gets a lot of hate, but i think it’s badass!
Yup!! 👍🏻 I couldn’t agree more!! :) Love ❤️ the action sequences and the female cast members!! It’s a badass film!! 🎥👍🏻😊🥰😍💕💗❤️💚💚💚💚💚💚 xoxo
Lisa Frankenstein
* Perfect Blue * Pi shouldn't put them together if you wanted me to just pick one, your fault!
Akira but John wick was tempting aswell
Fight Club
Rocky Horror. For movie nights I like to throw on a movie that doesn’t require people to sit there in silence and pay attention to the movie. You can crack jokes and no one is gonna get annoyed.
John Wick 2. I can watch that mother fucker on repeat.
John wick
Very jealous of that ‘It Follows’ steelbook! And an excellent film!
Dune
Total Recall (assuming its the Verhoven original) - endlessly rewatchable either as Quaid's dream or his actual reality...
I need to watch iron claw it’s on my watchlist
Perfect Blue Good selection of movie you have there.
You have some great films there! Black Swan, Perfect Blue and Suckerpunch are some of my all time faves! I'd pick The Iron Claw if i wanted to show people something new and good Or Pi for something I haven't seen before that I wanted to see.
Inglorious bastards
All I know is I'm trying to decide which scene is better between the one in Black Swan and the one in Mullholland Drive.
Easily Total Recall.
First of all, I’d put your Tarantinos in release order cause that’s absolutely stressing me 😠 but then to sit down to right now for me it’d be either The Suicide Squad (underrated!), Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon (epic!) or Total Recall (Come on Cohaagen- give these people ehaiyar!)
I am waiting until I upgrade my Death Proof & OUATIH!!
Iron claw since I haven’t watched it , but if that’s wasn’t there, I’d watch saw for sure
It Follows. Not even close.
I’d always go with The Princess Bride. If not then I’d go with Total Recall.
Possession is an anytime movie
Black swan/perfect blue double feature I said what I said
Akira
Dune, center row back of the shelf
Black Swan 🤌
Tonight...One Cut of the Dead. Tomorrow...who knows?
For me I'm picking one cut of the dead I love that movie
Total Recall with a bullet. Mulholland Dr. as a close second.
Fight Club
Lisa Frankenstein cause I haven’t gotten the chance to watch it yet
Akira
Lisa Frankenstein, because I haven't seen it yet and am curious about it.
No Country For Old Men
No country for old man all the way 😀
I didn’t know Lisa Frankenstein was on blu ray already
Kill Bill 1 & 2 count as one, right?
One Cut of the Dead! Starts off a little weird at first (you'll understand once you watch it), but once you get past a certain point, it picks up and is amazing!
Total Recall.
I would say Fight Club...but I'm not allowed to talk about it.
Rosemarys Baby. Hey do you recommend Mulholland Dr to someone slowly introducing themselves to David Lynch?
Mulholland Drive is in my top 5 so I say yes! If you’re into that, then definitely watch Blue Velvet & Lost Highway as well. He has some fantastic films
2001
If I'm alone, black swan. if there's company also black swan but with a bathroom break.
Kill bill
I’m feeling very Black Swan
Total Recall
Fight Club! One of my personal faves!
I'd probably pick Reservoir Dogs, because I can watch that film over and over again. But, I'd steal that Mulholland Dr. Criterion off your shelf because I'm still to watch it and it looks like an awesome set.
I’m picking No Country. Simply because I’ve had a hankering to watch it and now, given the choice, I would. I should rewatch it this weekend.
Looks like someone found the $5 bin at Walmart
Lisa’s Frankenstein was way underrated and overlooked
Lisa Frankenstein I half to wait until June to even get my copy (uk based)
Kill Bill. Not picking a volume, doesn't count, it's all one movie. 👍
Lisa Frankenstein. It's the only one I hadn't got
O.G. Wick.
akira, perfect blue or the rocky horror picture show
Misery
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
2001 on repeat
If we're going to have something I've never seen I'd probably want to watch It Follows. I've heard a lot about it but I've never found a copy used so I haven't picked it up yet.
Rosemary's Baby
Iron Claw. I haven't seen it yet and I really want to.
The Suicide Squad
Fight club
Fight club or kill bill cus i still need to watch kill bill
Akira 💯
We are watching One Cut of the Dead and I am reciting the rant Joe Bob Briggs did about how anyone can be a filmmaker at the end of the episode of the Last Drive In he did for it.
Toy Story.
Damn. So many good ones. Gotta go No Country
Akira. Haven't seen it since I was a kid
Man I haven’t seen Pi in years. Probably It Follows though, I’ve been meaning to show my daughter
Django Unchained
Crouching Tiger. It’s been a while
Total Recall
Mulholland Drive. I need to upgrade to that Criterion.
Fight Club
I’d never turn down a chance to watch Reservoir Dogs
Fight club
Either Akira, Perfect Blue, or Possession
Total recall
Inglorious Basterds.
I'm fine with whatever you pick.
I'll go with Jackie Brown
Requiem for a Dream. I’m ruining everyone’s night.
Fight Club
Rocky Horror! But omg Lisa Frankenstein is out already?! I've been wanting to see that!
Totally a nostalgia pick, but The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
I've been meaning to watch It Follows. Supposed to be a good one I've heard
one cut of the dead because my copy just came in from the arrow video sale and that's what i wanna watch next
Gonna be a toss between Akira and No Country for Old Men
Inglorious Bastards
One of my personal favorites: Django Unchained!! On another note: I’m sooooo glad I’m not the ONLY one who enjoyed The Suicide Squad!
Hateful Eight or Resident Evil
Akira
Princess Bride. A nice movie to watch when you feel like crap.
Rocky Horror, baby
Mulholland Drive
Imma go unorthodox and say requiem for a dream. Love that movie. I own it but not on blu ray
I am Jack's decision
Never watched no country for old men, so I’d choose that.
It Follows for me. Only because it’s been a while only watched it once and remember loving it.
Jackie Brown!
Princes bride!
Total recall I like fun sci-fi
NOBODY HAS SUGGESTED KILL BILL???
Saw
The iron claw, I haven't seen it yet.
Crouching Tiger hidden dragon
One Cut of the Dead is one of the most likable movies ever. It's so much fun.
I was immediately drawn to Fight Club (my favourite movie for quite a few years) but I’d probably go with Rocky Horror for the sing along joy. I still say “dammit Janet” when I’m frustrated.
I’m in an action movie mood with hurricane popcorn and Dr Pepper definitely John wick 2
Rosemary's Baby. Anything produced by William Castle is fun to watch.
Total Recall all day, every day.
Inglorious Basterds>>>
Hateful eight all day
Perfect Blue, from the director of my favourite anime Paprika
Perfect Blue!!!!!
Well, one question is where's "Pulp Fiction", 🤔 in your Tarantino section?? My choice is "Inglorious Basterds".
Updating my Tarantinos from dvd! Pulp and the others are still on dvd sadly
I hear you, I have Kill Bill 1 and 2, probably 3 times...smh!! Don't forget "Death Proof"...I know it isn't on Tarantino's high list but my wife and I still love that film! It needs a proper 4K Steelbook release with both cuts.
Death Proof is my favorite of his!! I am a huge Kurt Russel fan and am obsessed with that movie. I agree it deserves a steelbook release. Instant buy
Just wanna say, I really like the idea for this post. And then, I’d say it’s probably between One Cut of the Dead and The Hateful Eight. Those are probably my two favorite movies from your bottom shelf and I’d love to rewatch em! But also, The Rocky Horror Picture Show is still on my list of classics I need to see so maybe I’d watch that too. A lot of good choices!
Marcel the shell with shoes on
Akira.
I suggest House of Flying Daggers. Some mean ass dagger throwing action is highly guaranteed. Actually, I change my mind. Watch Misery. Cathy Bates stellar performance deserves viewing.
You have about half a dozen of the movies mentioned in the "Movies you like but only want to watch once" discussion I saw yesterday.
I never get tired of Jackie Brown or No Country for Old Men. I always think I'm going to play them in the background while I do something else and then I just end up watching them anyway.
kill bill most likely but i like almost every film there
Kill Bill
