So we have the watching thread but seeing as I’ve completed Netflix & new stuff has pretty much dried up I’m looking for inspiration in old classics.
To make a start obvs no.1, Shawshank Redemption.

True Romance. Tarantino’s best in my opinion.
Oosh, good one.
Needs a bit more narrowing down.
Give me a genre or mood you’re in
He didn’t direct though
Bladerunner
Which version?
Don’t really care, I’m interested in yours to have somthing I might not normally go for, hoping for a few to go at. We have Rocky cued up for tonight on the back of a friend posting it on Facebook last night.
original
So, theatrical, Director’s or Final version
yes
28 Days Later
Well for a Friday / Saturday night, can’t go wrong with Aliens (Special Edition if you can find it)
or
Scott Pilgrim vs the World for some batshit-ness
For a warm hug of a movie, Paddington or Paddington 2
For something more up to date, Parasite is on Amazon
Pirates of the Carribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl
Literally never get tired of watching it
Almost Famous. Love that film. Having spent much of my life in bands this is my go to feel good film.
Airplane/Goodfellas/Major League spring to mind - all fairly similar too
Apocalypse Now, Shawshank probably battling it out.
Not my favourite, but underappreciated/known: A Life Less Ordinary.
Favourite film has evolved over the years.
Certainly was Aliens for me back in the day. Then Shawshank for years. Then Gravity when I saw that on a big screen and was blown away.
Nothing since has come close.
Although I’ve high hopes for Top Gun: Maverick.
I’ve just order the Blu Ray as the Atmos soundtrack is meant to be stunning
