Sling Blade anyone?

Great movie. Except for the retard, the homo, and the stupid little kid. Everything was going along fine until that retard showed up. The ending sucked too.

[CrystalTears]

[Celephais]

I could give a fuck. I loved that movie as a kid.

Oh I agree, it was great as a kid, but it's so funny to watch it now and see how ridiculous it is... it's like watching Short Circuit now...

Ah, the memories...

[Tisket]

I think there is a more recent thread for good movies but I couldn't locate it so giving this one a bump.

Starbuck (no not that Starbuck) is an awesome new French-Canadian film. It is in subtitled French but, if you let that detail stop you from watching it, you are missing out on a real gem of a movie. Not one sour note in the whole fucking movie. If you can watch it and NOT laugh and feel good, you're not human. That is all.

[SHAFT]

Can't believe Highlander wasn't mentioned.
