The Future series lost me after the first one (The others are okay; but not stellar like the orginal! IMO)

-

Goodfellas is so bitchen. I love that last grab where Scorsese did the push / pull Hitchcock thingy

Jeremy's Top 12

Goodfellas
Dances with Wolves
Godfather: Part III, The
Hunt for Red October, The
Miller's Crossing
Misery
Flatliners
Jacob's Ladder
Pump Up the Volume
King of New York
Memphis Belle
Night of the Living Dead


Why did Jeremy choose these?
Goodfellas - Kick ass film, nothing more to say
Dances with Wolves - Beautiful, moving, and Costners best non baseball movie
Godfather - While people ***** about it a lot, it is the logical ending to the series
Red October - Baldwin doing a Connery impression
Miller's Crossing - Dirty, nasty, and wicked
Misery - Great performance from a mediocre book
Flatliners - Brat Pack 2 killing themselves... C'mon people!
Jacob's Ladder - Scary, haunting, and requires multiple viewings
Pump Up the Volume - Great soundtrack and inspires the rebel within
King of New York - Walken being Walken
Memphis Belle - Because we're all patriots at heart
Night of the Living Dead - Didn't Rob Zombie direct this?

Jeremy's Choices for the Oscars
What does this matter? Ben Affleck has an Oscar.

-Jeremy
 
Honestly, what else do you really remember from that movie? It's just like 'The 5th Element' (or the ghetto version, Da Fiff 'Ment) and 'Multipass'

-Jeremy
 
Night of the Living Dead - Didn't Rob Zombie direct this?

Savini, right ?

The Hunt for Red October should have continued with the same director and actor I think (Regarding the other Jack Ryan vehicles)
