The Year of the Movies

[Doublehex]

I am going to attempt something that some would consider insane. Others would call it a brilliant move. Others will just be envious.

For one year -365 days - I will watch a single movie, ever day, until this day next year. Wherever it will be online, at the movies, or on my very small DVD collection, I will watch a different movie every day.

I want your help in selecting the movies. I already plan on using [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AFI%27s_100_Years..._100_Movies_(10th_Anniversary_Edition)"][B]AFIs 100 Years...100 Movies[/B][/URL] list as a way to start, but there is still 265 movies which remain.

I do have a few rules, in accordance with this:

1. A different movie must be watched ever day.
2. If should I ever miss a day, I must watch two movies on the next day, to make up for it. This will add up until I am back on track.
3. There must be no repeats. Every movie must be unique.
4. Every movie must be watched, from beginning to end, regardless of length, content, or quality.
5. All genres are allowed.
6. Popcorn is optional.

[Mr. Blonde]

I would suggest no popcorn. Don't be one of [I]those[/I] people.

Alright I'll run through some of my favorite classics first:

The Apartment (Anything that teams up Wilder and Lemmon is great)
Directed by: Billy Wilder

Rear Window
Directed by: Alfred Hitchcock

Somebody Up There Likes Me
Directed by: Robert Wise

My Left Foot (newer, 1989, but still a classic in my view)
Directed by: Jim Sheridan

Cat On a Hot Tin Roof
Directed by: Richard Brooks

The Misfits
Directed by: John Huston

She Wore a Yellow Ribbon
Directed by: John Ford

To Kill a Mockingbird

The Bridge on the River Kwai (Historically inacurate but Alec Guinness is amazing)
Directed by: David Lean

Twelve Angry Men (Lee. J Cobb's performance is reason alone to watch this)
Directed by: Sydney Lumet

Marty
Directed by: Delbert Mann

There's quite a few to soak in there, but if you want some more suggestions I'd be pleased to provide you with them.

[Doublehex]

Great list. I have heard a few of those. I'll definitely put them on my list, at one point or another.

Horror movies count, right?

--Silent Hill
--The Man With Two Brains
--Creepshow
--The Exoricism of Emily Rose
--Scary Movie(1,2,3, and 4)
--Date Movie
-- The Spongebob Squarepants Movie
--I Am Legend
--Love & Basketball

--Ghost Rider
--Blade(1, 2, & 3)
--Interview with the Vampire

And that's all I can think of right now. I just woke up, so my mind is a little foggy, but I shall have more up, later!:animesmil[/COLOR]

[Vicky]

[size=1]I know a few:

Requiem for a Dream
Trainspotting
Rainman
Quadrophenia
24 Hour Party People
Pi
Boys Don't Cry
Edward Scissorhands
The Butterfly Effect
Lords of Dogtown
Gladiator
Labyrinth
The Hunger
The Man Who Fell to Earth
Sleepers

They're just my favourite movies in order =p. Requiem for a Dream is probably a must watch and Pi, as well. Not groundbreaking movies but they're probably better than Blockbusters.[/size]

[Mr. Blonde]

[quote name='Lrb'][FONT="Tahoma"][COLOR="DimGray"]28 Days Later
Directed by Danny Boyle

Danny Boyle, yes.

I'd also check out "Sunshine" by Danny Boyle, which also features Cilian Murphy as well.

I find that most Sci-Fi films (Sunshine included) have a very strong horror aspect to them as well

I'll throw these great sci-fi/horror flicks out there too:

Alien
Directed by: Ridley Scott

Children of Men
Directed by: Alfonso Cuarón

Planet of the Apes (1968)
Directed by: Franklin J. Schaffner

The Wicker Man (1973)-(not really Sci-Fi but very freaky)
Directed by: Robin Hardy.

Plan 9 From Outerspace (This movie is so bad that you HAVE to see it)
Directed by: Ed Wood

[Shinmaru]

As silly and full of fantards as it is, [url=imdb.com][b]IMDb[/b][/url] is a good source for finding new movies to watch. Check its Top 250 list and the list of top movies by genre. You'll find a bunch of great ones there. I also get a lot of ideas about good movies to watch from Roger Ebert's [url=http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/section?category=REVIEWS08][b]Great Movies page[/b][/url] on his Web site. I don't always agree with the man, but he knows his movies.

Haha, so there are plenty of good movies to put on your plate, buddy. Write about the movies you see every day! :)

I think Shinmaru just copied and pasted the entire IMDB website in his post, ha.

But thats a good idea. You should write a short review everyday after you watch the movie. It would create a lot of discussion among those whom have already seen the film and have an opinion of their own on it. Good call, Shinmaru.

lol, you have no idea how tempting it was to take every good movie I have seen and plop it into that post. But then it would have taken me way too long to write. >>

Plan 9 from Outer Space (1959).

[Darren]

Okay, so I was bummed that there are some others who have already listed some of my suggestions. Darn, but I'll list them again just because they're too good to be left out. And actually, thinking about it now, some of these are probably on AFI's list or you've already seen them. I did take it a bit further, and decided to give you trailers (the bolded ones) in case you've never heard of them

1) [URL="http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi2527396121/"][B]Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind[/B][/URL] (2004) starring Jim Carry and Kate Winslet
2) The Rainmaker (1997) starring Matt Damon, Danny DeVito, and Claire Danes
3) [URL="http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi414974233/"][B]Brick[/B][/URL] (2005) starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt
4) [URL="http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi2896494873/"][B]Europa Europa[/B][/URL] (1990) starring Marco Hofschneider [Foreign Film]
5) [URL="http://www.imdb.com/video/screenplay/vi981795097/"][B]Running with Scissors[/B][/URL] (2006) starring Joseph Cross and Evan Rachel Wood

I would give more, but searching for the trailers and all that is becoming tiresome. Plus, everyone else has pretty much taken all of the others from my list.

[Mr. Blonde]

You have some real solid choices there, but I do think you're going to be disappointed by a number of films on that list, however I suppose you need to see the bad to better appreciate the good. My only suggestion might be putting the sequels right next to each other because once you see Godfather 1 you'll want to see 2, but you'll throw up after 3.:sick:

Here's some more classic must-sees:

Serpico (1973)-My favorite Pacino film
Directed by: Sydney Lumet

(By now I'm sure you've recognized that I've suggested multiple films by the same directors. There's a reason for that, these are some of the best directors of their day.)

Dog Day Afternoon (1975)
Directed by: Sydney Lumet

Apocalypse Now (1979)
Directed by: Francis Ford Coppola

On the Waterfront (1954)
Directed by: Elia Kazan

A Streetcar Named Desire (1951)-Watch this for Brando's performance alone.
(Just like Cat On a Hot Tin Roof, another Tennessee Williams adaptation)
Directed by: Elia Kazan

Bonnie and Clyde (1967)
Directed by: Arthur Penn

Annie Hall (1977) In my opinion the best love story ever put on film.
Directed by: Woody Allen

These to me are the type of films that have shaped American cinema. These are must-sees, but I'll get back to you with some Gene Wilder- Richard Pryor films, because Stir Crazy is just hilarious.

Check out anything by these directors:

John Ford

John Huston

Sydney Lumet

Billy Wilder

Martin Scorcese

-That reminds me:

Gangs of New York (2002)-My favorite Scorcese film.


Enjoy.

Indeed. Ed Wood is infamous for being a terrible director, its insane.

Haha, I never would have pegged you as a fan of [b]A Hard Day's Night[/b]! Really good movie, though. The Beatles are great in front of the camera (Ringo has a big part!), and the whole thing is filmed with this amazing, exuberant energy and humor. This is one of the movies I'd watch to cheer me up after a lousy day.

My sister and I grew up loving the Beatles, and we loved their films too. :animesmil

What I need to do is get DVDs of Help! and Yellow Submarine too. The only one I didn't like was Magical Mystery Tour.

[Mr. Blonde]

You have some great ones on there. Just to let you know you have "To Kill a Mockingbird" on there twice. And I noticed you have Rambo 4 but no other Rambo films? If you've never seen "First Blood" (the first Rambo) I'd definitely check that out before Rambo 4. And I saw you have Mad Max, would that be the first Mad Max film (The Road Warrior)? You gotta love "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome". Tina Turner's hair is Eighties-rific.

You've done a fine job at putting a very eclectic group of films on there. I would only suggest not ending with "Shoot em' Up", I'd go out with something epic if I was you. I don't know how you're getting these films but my local blockbuster hardly has any classics, they suck. Good luck.

[Doublehex]

Smith kills a man by punching a carrot through his throat.

How is that not epic?

[Mr. Blonde]

Oh so you've seen "Shoot em' Up" and you're going to subject yourself to the agony again? You're a brave man.
