But for me it has to be It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, okay , it might not be regarded by many as a classic but it is fantastic fun. Great stuff. :D

Rhumba, when I saw It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World at the theater on it's first release in 1963 I had a feeling of nostalgia for all of those wonderful comedic actors and actresses wearing their best "make them laugh" faces,fantastic fun and great stuff Bro :lol:

Blade Runner, with Ghost Busters a close second. In the musical realm, probably Walk the Line.

Ill second Clint Eastwood westerns, especially the outlaw Josey Wales.

Sci Fi probably "Aliens" (86)

An all time favourite of mine is "Ravenous" (1999) with Guy Pearce, Robert Carlisle amongst others, Great score as well by Damon Albarn, brilliant film.

Many others . . . .

Hi Solid, I saw this too at the theater when it was released. It was a saturday night and the band had a night off, so we all went to see this. It was superb fun, we were all falling out of our seats and yes! a fantastic cast of what seemed like dozens of famous faces.



One further thing about this, man. Jeff Beck did a piece called 'What Mama Said' on one of his albums and I can't be certain but it really sounds like a clip from this movie is in there.
'Y'all Hear What Mama Said' it really does sound like Sylvester, when he is in the hole digging for the money.
I've got the album somewhere, I'll find it and check it out.
Cheers Solild and take care man. :D

Platoon is way up there on my list. Then I would have to give The Jason Bourne trilogy honorable mention also.

interesting note: many people's favorite movie on here is The Shawshank Redemption but believe or not the movie was a box office flop! Did horrible in theaters and now the movie is regarded as one of the greatest movies ever. Just figured I'd share this little bit o' movie knowledge with everyone! But i do agree awesome movie, thank you Stephen King
