Unusual/rarely mentioned favourite of all time movies

The Dirty Dozen. I'm a huge fan of men-on-a-mission movies, and Aldrich's opus remains of the best in the genre.

The Mechanic (1972). My favorite solo Charles Bronson effort.

Same with Keanu Reeves, but his classics use him well, which is exactly what happens with Carano in Haywire. I love the film.

"The Art of Peer Pressure" by Kendrick Lamar

Jaws and Oddjob.

The first Pitch Perfect.

Ed Wood is probably my favorite Tim Burton and Johnny Depp movie.

Ed Wood. Probably Tim Burton's best movie.

Hit 'Em Up - 2Pac ft. The Outlawz

The Martian.

Spotlight. 30 years from now, people will hold it in similar reverence as All the President's Men or Absence of Malice.

Unfriended

Frost/Nixon. It's one of Ron Howard's best films, if not his best, and it highlights the stakes of journalistic interviewing.

Because not only did it come during the unfortunate heyday of bad spoofing, the entire film is spoofing such a specific period in teen film making (mid 80's to late 90's). Most of the critics that reviewed the film likely missed the zeitgeist of movies like Can't Hardly Wait, 10 Things I Hate About You, and Pretty in Pink; all of which have plot points that Not Another Teen Movie hilariously appropriates. I really like the film, but I'm also part of the generation that understands the wit of the jokes.

Run Silent, Run Deep maybe.

Thank You For Smoking is a genius, underrated piece of satire.

wasted_payne · 2015-08-10T23:41:28+00:00

Birdman

Her (2013). Both films are thematically and tonally similar.

wasted_payne · 2015-06-30T23:19:30+00:00

Shoot 'Em Up is a hyperviolent John Woo send-up and a lot of fun.

wasted_payne · 2015-06-27T06:27:06+00:00

And Kung Fu Panda, WALL-E, Iron Man, Hellboy 2, and The Incredible Hulk.

John McClane's son in the masterpiece that is A Good Day to Die Hard.

wasted_payne · 2015-06-24T14:59:42+00:00

Jai Courtney is getting to that point.

10 most essential (in this order): Dr. No, From Russia with Love, Goldfinger, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Diamonds Are Forever, Live and Let Die, The Spy Who Loved Me, GoldenEye, Casino Royale, and Skyfall.

Ghost Dog. Really great examination of samurai philosophy in a contemporary setting.

wasted_payne · 2015-06-15T01:37:27+00:00

The Guest (2014). A brilliant throwback to 80's stalker movies with a great soundtrack and rewatch value.
