The Castle
Chopper
Shawshank
Pulp fiction
Fight Club
Good Will Hunting
Forrest Gump
Contact
Blues Brothers
The sixth sense
Grand Torino
Scar Face
Wolf of wall street
Fear and loathing
My big fat Greek wedding (yep my secret)
Something’s gotta give
American Psycho
No country for old men
Spirited away (if I’m hung over or any studio ghibli)

These are ones I’ll watch again if it’s on and I should go to bed. I guess I like a journey in my taste of films apart obviously from blues brothers I just like the music.

Shaun of the Dead

But if we're just talking serious movies, I grew up on the Romero originals and still rate them as the best. The original Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead are classics.

28 Days Later..

I didn't even know it was a predator movie until the obvious scene showing him near the start.

Koreans make great zombie stuff, train to Busan is my favourite one.

 

[N4TE]

28 Days Later..

I love that movie. Also I Am Legend. But the Koreans do them well too.

N4 have you ever read the ‘I am Legend’ novel?

 

[Hacky McAxe]

28 Days Later..

That always brings up the old debate of, "what do you consider a zombie movie?"

28 Days Later technically isn't a zombie movie, as they are rage virus infected humans. The major difference being that rage virus infected are fast and they are alive so they can starve to death if they don't eat, while zombies are un/dead so they never really die until the brain is destroyed. Technically Last of Us zombies are more zombies than 28 Days, Weeks, and eternally in development hell... Months Later movies.

But nuance is messy and I like to just consider them all zombie movies.

I watched Ambulance a few days ago, Jake Gyllenhaal stars feel i may have seen it before although it's only a 2022 vintage.
Good movie but the main point I wanna mention is a scene where the baddies are in full pursuit mode, wounded and under major duress and JG is listening to an ipod and the go to song is Sailing by Christopher Cross
I literally had completely forgotten about that song for idk maybe as long as 30 years fuck me!

Anyway, I've since listened/watched it maybe up to 50 times lol.

I recommend get your nostalgia on and have a watch on youtube, it may not be for everyone but it's a beautiful and touching song.
So suitable and appropriate as a what's the word profound song I would have undoubtedly played it at my old mans funeral in 2004 had I not completely forgotten about it..it's that good imo.

 

[Mr 95%]

@Hacky McAxe i watched Oppenheimer. Thought it was a great movie. The direction by Nolan was top notch, the acting, in particular Cillian Murphy, and Robert Downer Jr. They were aptly supported Matt Damon and a host of actors, including a memorable cameo as President by a an actor who played a British PM.

Yes some parts of the film aren’t quite historically accurate, however the movie overall does a good job on its presentation of what happened.

Throughly enjoyed it, even though its subject matter is not to be enjoyed.

edit: have a watch @Rodzilla

I still have the cassette and Sailing was my fav track on it
