Conan the Barbarian. Not the remake with some skinny underwear model. But the original dino de laurentis epic. It's as true to Robert Ervin Howards original character as could be. Conan wasn't some hairdoed model, he was a big muscled monster of a man.

Highly agree with Life Of Brian. And that it's superior to the holy grail. It is a beautiful example of what humans do. And, it should be said, not nearly as blasphemous as you would think. It's much more about what we do as followers than it is about a specific religion.

I'd add Shrek 2 though. Not as brilliant as the first- but solid. As far as I'm concerned they never went any further. Sort of like how they've never done a Fantastic 4 film. Because NO-ONE gets to ruin the origin story of Victor Von Doom like that. It never happened.

"Facts stand wholly outside our gates; they are what they are, and no more;they know nothing about themselves and they pass no judgement upon themselves. What is it, then, that pronounces the judgement? Our own guide and ruler, Reason."

shrek 2 was rubbish. No ogrey stuff, no caterpillar toothpaste.

And what's wrong with the f4 films ? I rather like them

I'll add the first ironman film and the avengers film. And the other two iron man films.
I'll throw OUT the second captain america film - what was the point ?
And the second thor film was also somewhat pointless.

Damn right we are Groot. Also for the fact that they signed up Vin diesel to play the voice of groot. Man bet that ws one short recording session

Aliens who aren't humans wearing masks - finally someone gets the idea of ALIEN

And speaking of ron perlman... And not just for sygourney weaver in her undies Great aliens - although a tad too human shaped for my liking, but still very good.

It's in my top ten if not the top five of best films ever made. Kurt Russel at his prime was unbeatable. 'It's all in the reflexes'.

Curious Aardvark Forum Moderation Offline Taller than the average Dwarf Posts: 13965 Midlands England Gender:	Re: Let's Build a Film Library Reply #27 - Jul 24^th, 2015 at 3:31pm Animal house The late great John Belushi at his mental finest. Not that great a film as it kind of grinds to a halt in places - but a classic of it's genre and some truly memorable scenes.

But the 3d effects were mind blowing. The screen and tablets were full 3d within the 3d of the room. One of the few films I'd urge you to see 3d in a cinema.
