    If you were talking about the German army or Germans in general I’d agree with but the Nazis were what they were. No use pretending otherwise.

    And if you are one of those flutes who thinks they don't like it, well, then you are mistaken.
    That bit with the Rabbi's head melting when he looks at the Face of God scared the absolutel living ****e out of me as a kid.
    Asked my mum why that happened and she said no one could look at God's face and survive. Was terrified for a while after that God would appear in Mass and we'd all melt.

    this thread reminds me of the Seinfeld episode where Elaine hates "the English patient "and everyone around her is enthralled by it ...very funny episode.

    also I hated shrek and am the only person in the world with that opinion I believe

    Stand by me.
    What a movie. One of those that can be watched again and again.
    Don't know anyone that has ever had anything but good to say about it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 612 ✭✭✭KevinCavan


    Weekend At Bernies.

    Love the offbeat, dark humour of this film. Brilliantly made.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,737 ✭✭✭Yer Da sells Avon


    The original Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.

    If you don't like it, you're a cunt. I'm sorry, I don't make the rules.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,232 ✭✭✭TheRiverman


    I know it's still months away, but surely everyone loves the Christmas films Home Alone and Die Hard?


    *edit; someone already beat me to it!

    I like Home Alone 2,because it has a great song, All Alone On Christmas by Darlene Love with the E Street Band on it's soundtrack.I don't like Die Hard.

    I've never met anyone who didn't like The Big Lebowski.

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Overrated and shown way too often on various TV channels all year round.It was just finishing on Channel 5 this evening when it was starting on BBC 1.Ridiculous.

    The only musical I ever liked was the 60s version of 'Oliver' with Oliver Reed as Bill Sykes.

    In fairness, it took me a couple of watches to appreciate it to.

    Agree 100%, I saw 0liver as a young child and still love it today. But I have never been able to stomach any other musical.

    Another vote here for Stand by Me, Back to the Future and also The Lost Boys. The Butterfly Effect is another.

    Yes, men.

    I'm a man and I went to the cinema with my wife to watch it. Have to say the first one was enjoyable as I found it amateurish, the 2nd way to serious and too much choreography.

    Young Frankenstein.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,944 ✭✭✭indioblack


    Tremors starring Kevin Bacon- it's awful but I know you didn't turn it off when you last seen it
    Midnight Cowboy
    Back to the future trilogy
    Watched Midnight Cowboy at the cinema when it came out.
    Absolutely brilliant score from John Barry.

    Tom is very easy to dislike.

    The films are good, but any other Hollywood A lister could do them as well.

    Tom Cruise was Christian Bale’s Inspiration for Patrick Bateman in American Psycho.
    "he just had this very intense friendliness with nothing behind the eyes, and he was really taken with this energy."

    Roald Dahl wasn't too keen on it by all accounts.
