Documentaries I would Like to see Made 11-29-10
Walmart Bakery- I know it's obvious to make a documentary about the place you work... but this place would be interesting to watch from an objective point of view... there's even a lot of humor and stupidity!
Dreamscapes-- If I was not lazy I would love to study the psychology of dreams... it would be cool to see a documentary with imagery and everything about this subject
The Mystery of Cats- There may be already a documentary on this... but cats are very odd in a lot of ways and it would be interesting to see some of the history and lore behind them
Victory 11-22-09
Inglourious Basterds (2009)- I loved this movie because it was NOT historically accurate... we all know what happened in WWII... we don't need another retelling of the failures of the attempts on Hitler's life... well... this one succeeded which was unexpected and awesome.
Homeward Bound (1993)- Great movie... great pets... very touching victory of the coming home of household pets
LOTR (2001-03)- "For victory and the red dawn!" Chilling victory sequences... The Battle of Helm's deep when Gandalf arrives with the Rohirram... and the Ents overtaking Isengard... and then in the last one when all hope is lost and Frodo and Sam succeed in destroying the Ring! =D
Death Scenes 11-15-09
Lord of the Rings FOTR (2001)- Gandalf- Every bit of cinematic bliss merged perfectly (through this whole trilogy) but it made Gandalf's "death" amazingly devastating
Pirates of the Caribbean (2003)- Cpt. Barbosa- Awesome character and great fight between him and Jack Sparrow.. and then when the apple falls out of his hand!
My Girl (1991)- Thomas- This is only on here because it's the first movie I actually ever cried while watching... very sad when the little boy dies and the girl is devastated
The Cottage (2008)- David- WONDERFUL underground gem! All the deaths in this are memorable but the expressions in this particular one are what make it win out among other movies of its kind
Watchmen (2009)- Rorschach- He allows himself to be killed because he knows what's right and he can't live with just letting it happen... and then he leaves a Rorschach shaped bloodstain in the snow...
Life Changers 11-8-09
Lord of the Rings (2001-03) I know it's cliche... it may not have "changed" my life... I am still pretty young... but it is something that I will always remember... it has everything in it and as nerdy and possibly crazy as it is.. almost everything in my life can be mirrored by situations or quotes from this trilogy
Mobsters 11-1-09
Mickey Blue Eyes (1999)- Great comedy about the mob and Hugh Grant getting caught in the middle of everything
Boondock Saints (1999)- I'm pretty sure this counts... 2 irish brothers taking out members of the mob (and other bad guys)
The Whole Nine Yards (2000)- Bruce Willis and Matthew Perry play off of each other in this very well
A History of Violence (2005)- Really good past catching up with your present kind of movie
Public Enemies (2009)- Don't watch a lot of true mobster movies but Johnny Depp was great in this movie

Identity (2003)
Re-cycle (2006)

Western 10-18-09
Tombstone (1993)- The only true classic western I've seen.. and very good!
No Country for Old Men (2007)- Not a great movie... but the disturbed feeling at the end is very memorable
Serenity (2005)- A space western!
Hidalgo (2004)

School 09-27-09
Charlie Bartlett (2007)- Anton Yelchin stars as a rich kid who wants to be liked at his new school.. he achieves this by helping his fellow students through the most difficult years of their lives... along with a little perscription drug use. Robert Downey Jr. also costars as the principal and the object of Charlie's affection's father.
A Little Princess (1995)- Sarah goes to a girls school where she is well loved until it is found that her father has died at war and she is all alone (and pennyless) so the evil headmistress makes her a servent girl and she is shunned by the students for a while until they all realize it's not money that makes friends.
Clueless (1995)- Alicia Silverstone stars as Cher as she and her friends make their way through high school while doing "good deeds" for the "less fortunate" backfires.
Dance of the Dead (2008)- One of the better Films to Die For that we've found.. definately the best high school/zombie movie out there.
