Oliver Stone's JFK is masterclass of film making, so fucking well directed and edited movie, even if it takes some liberties.

Barry Lyndon is an aesthetic achievement that will probably be remembered millienia from now.

The Next Three Days (2010). It's the only film I can watch again and again without being bored. The Lord of the Rings Trilogy definitely needs a mention as well.

Bros, which Marx Bros movie epitomizes them best of all? Horse Feathers, A Night at the Opera, Duck Soup, or Animal Crackers? I think A Night at the Opera should be nominated to the list, as the best of their movies.

Agreed. Apocalypto is a genuinely good movie that was obscured by Mel Gibson's later reputation.

It really is worth watching.

The entirety of this is available on yewtoob.

Highly recommended.

Klerik · Post by **Klerik** » July 8th, 2023, 04:38

I just watched that 2 times in a row.

You must have a 7th or even a 15th sense.

Now watch the fucking andromeda strain zoomer.

Great movie, one of my favorites. Have no idea why it's up on the internet archive for free but hey, don't look a gift horse in the mouth I guess.

Post by **rusty_shackleford** » July 8th, 2023, 05:18

Another good movie in its entirety on yewtoob, and directly related to RPGs. You'll catch a bunch of material that was obviously used by Fallout.

Klerik · Post by **Klerik** » July 8th, 2023, 05:21

I agree I like that movie. I don't see why it's the best thing ever, but it's a good B- . However in the long term you would be much better served by watching The Andromeda Strain.
