Jeebling, MACS, dedeyedick, I think you need to specify which Godfather. I suppose if you liked one or two or the other one you could use those as separate picks. I think Godfather II was the best of the bunch of Godfather movies. They made a documentary movie about the making of the Godfather that was pretty good.

Palama, I was able to catch Kurosawa's Seven Samurai on the big screen when I took a film studies class, he was an excellent filmmaker.

DrafterX, We just watched Idiocracy not too long ago and that is a funny but scary movie.

delta1, Training Day, pretty hard core but a good one for sure.

Brewha, Unforgiven was a good one for sure and I always got a kick out of the Mystery Science Theater.

In no order,

Tombstone - Cant watch and not think of my dad, if its on i must stop flipping channels Also a go 2 for long flights.

Clerks (i could have picked Dogma, Chasing Amy, Clerks 3, Red State or ay other KS movie but kept it to the one that started it all)

White Christmas Watch this every Christmas Eve with the Family, Fireplace going, snacks and drinks, since my daughter was very little she has been allowed to open 1 present on Christmas Eve. when they get to Vermont on the train she pauses the movie and runs to get the gift she wants to open.

Newer Movie Hon Mentions
Deadpool 3 was the most fun movie i have seen in a while lots of great music and many laughs.
4:30 Movie - Feel good throw back to the 80s without feeling dated. Felt very John Hughes like but written and directed by Kevin Smith.

Nice list...My go to Christmas movies are Christmas In Connecticut and We're No Angels (NOT the DeNiro version!)

I'll have to look for 4:30...haven't seen that one yet and yes...Deadpool was hilarious! I couldn't believe how bad he slagged on Disney throughout the whole movie. THAT was great.

Absolutely a wonderful movie. Excellent recommendation. The Unforgiven is an excellent follow through on the Dirty Harry series examination of justice.

Tombstone is excellent and the interviews they have made with the stars involved with that movie have been very interesting to me.
