	What movie should I bring home tonight? Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

I'm looking to watch a quality movie tonight, something that's around 2 hours. I think I'm in the mood for a dark comedy, or maybe a thriller. I want something that has meaning behind it as well. I work at a video store and have seen a lot of movies.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Evil Twins, starring Charlene Aspen

Life of Brian. The best movie I have seen. Better than Holy Grail.

bullshit, Holy Grail is a lot better

The Big Lebowski if you're in an indifferent mood. might make you sleepy though

ever seen Memento?

I've seen all those except Evil Twins, which I'm looking up on IMDB right now

I would prefer something that wouldn't make me sleepy...I had that problem the other day with Shadow of the Vampire...great, great actors (Malcovich, DaFoe, Elwes, Izzard) still cannot make up for a bad script

...for a dark comedy, that...

the fact that you work at a video store means:

1. that you're quentin tarantino

and 2. most importantly, how are we average guys to help you here?

or watch a foreign movie... some japanese stuff, like Battle Royale

or watch Lola, should do for a laugh... a little too arty though

the game, but you probably know that one out of your head entirely...

maybe some superficial action, password swordfish or heat

all 90s movies I've recently seen, regretted none. different genres though, and different levels

you guys can help me by giving me suggestions apart from the usual videostore kind...something away from Big Lebowski/High Fidelity/American History X that every videostore employee has seen

And I've seen all those...including almost all Tarantino films

OK, I almost only know the popular kind, wouldn't have been a must to know Battle Royale though, so it was worth an attempt... Mononoke?

MAGNOLIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's 4 hours, and pumped FULL of meaning, and BRILLIANT performances (Tom Cruise' best to date, imo)

You want a dark comedy Euro themed? Try Siberia. Good times, especially when with a date

it's a shame some of them you haven't, try

American Beauty
Godfather

Dune

Godfather is night long though.

Hmm sorry to crank out Tom Cruise flics, but have you seen "Vanilla Sky"? You could like that one, but beware... it's one that gets quite heavy towards the end

Hey I've finally got AIM, btw - we can do that old EmpFab interview planned like a year ago!

I see little to no feel good or comedy in these titles... Sadistic comedy, yes - but these are the kind of flics to terrify you with lands of defeat

Itchi the killer. Good comedy!

Have I seen Vanilla Sky? I OWN Vanilla Sky, one of my favorite movies.

And I was actually thinking about that interview again Zylka. If I get a movie and find its slow, I'll be willing to do it.

I've changed my screenname. It's now NotAHero42

I'm going to see if we have Siberia, if not then prolly American Beauty. However, I have yet to check which screeners (movies released prior to street date for videostore employees) that we got this weekend

Good, sweet and sour mood Pitt flics.. Although if you haven't seen these and work in a video store, I question your actions to date:

TWELVE MONKEYS
OCEAN'S ELEVEN
SPY GAME
A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT
SNATCH
FIGHT CLUB

BLOW is a great one you'd love - and does the name "Penelope Cruz" do anything for you down below?

Yeah, Siberia is only on VHS though - it's fun, but a cult classic much like Run Lola

There's a reason all these movies weren't on that list...personally though, I didn't like Spy Game

goddamn...I've seen so many movies...I had no idea

yeah, go for Fight Club, too. Snatch is sort of funny, but also very strange.

snatch is a watered down copy of lock, stock and two smoking barrels. the latter is the real thing, the former the silly copy

fight club is great if you havent seen it too
