Evil Dead is the shit.
Am I right?


I would call it a Saga.

Evil Dead also, but hard to argue they are great films per se.

Dollars trilogy not even close, sorry. Not even near the top for westerns (outlaw josey wales dunks) let alone all time.

Naked gun shit and if we are listing Die Hard might as well get Rush Hour and Bad Boys on the list too.

My only hang up on Godfather is the violence cycle is predictable. Everything else is great in it. Hbo has 1 and 2 in chronological order uncut. Worth the 8 hrs.

Godfather still holding the crown in competition with Star Wars. Step to me.

Won't argue with this. LOTR is still a visual masterpiece that broke new ground that you probably want in your dream home theater you plan to build some day, but indeed Gollum has not aged well at all.

LOTR 2 is ok, the 3rd has some strange pacing and editing. I remember us going full ADD in the theater about 2 hours in and mocking the gay innuendo close-ups of everyones face (the way the reaction shots were done was meant to be "fantasy-esque" and borderline surreal I guess but instead came off gay and indicating) about 2.5 hours in towards the end of the movie.

Havent seen it but want to. To me, its something you watch with another person.

And godfather/film/premium TV connoisseurs in general are hard to find. Esp ladies.

Well not college educated ladies. seriously there's a "hobby" gap between highschool dropout women and college women in this area. its really bad.

You try to show them stuff or share interests and they pretend because they like you and feel attracted to you, but since they have never had an interest of their own, they cant appreciate it at all....I guess its hard to appreciate anything when you have never appreciated anything from a critical standpoint. College tends to decrease this "lack of hobbies and interests" syndrome among women.

Men on the other hand tend to self-teach and learn their own 5% lessons just fine without the college thing. I'd go so far as to say you cant tell the difference between a college guy and a highschool dropout. The guy is either woke or he isn't. He either has interests or he doesn't.

Anyone else notice this phenomenon?

I actually hated Army of darkness :rolleyes:

The TV series is not too bad Ash Vs The Undead keeps with the whole gore/horror/comedy type theme same actor too Bruce Campell.

Also the remake "evil dead." was pretty poor.

I think we are all burying the lead story here...

I am embarrassed to say it, but cut out all the filler and Naruto is a super good story.

Also enjoyed the Sherlock Holmes and Pitch Black movies ^^ Don't know if those really fit though ^^
