I used "The Jerk" in a Sociology paper about the differences between 'race' and 'ethnicity'...

Other great moments in race-relations:
"But sir, you're bleck!"
"He is. You are."
"We're back, we're bad, you're black, I'm mad!"

THE ROAD WARRIOR... now i know the Road Warrior is like the worst movie ever made, but... It's just so good. Before Mel Gibson got all chunky on american fast food.
Tae Guk Gi - Korean war film... deffinatly one of the best war films ever made... makes saving private ryan's effects look like a trip to kindergarden. Not to mention a good story too.
Pitch Black - Now nobody jump on me for this one... yes i know it's Vin Diesel but unlike what the current DVD release says... he is not the main character! Fun movie, and nice visuals.
Evil Dead 2 and Army of Darkness - I don't konw what it is about Bruce Cambell but anyone who can entertain me for ten minutes as he battles it out with his own severed limb has my vote!
Short Circuit (number 1 only) - "Number 5 is alive"
The Abyss - Just a great movie period
Dog Soldiers - I heard that one mentioned before as well... Great film... My favorite Werewolf movie by far... with realistic british soldier action
and how could we forget our old friend TRON! Yes yes i know... it's sort of like road warrior where i know i shouldn't be allowed to watch the movie... but...

Six String Samurai: Already mentioned, but worth bringing up. Not much of a story, but goofy and fun. The dessert duel between Buddy Holly and Richie Valenz (in shiny gold jacket) had me rolling. Don't see how the villain was a rastafarian, struck me as Alice Cooper meets Slash, but whatever.
I sit corrected. Advancing years had fogged my memory.

Osiris! My friend!
What has happened to your nose?
Jackiechan! Jackiechan! Jackiechan! What a guy! But I have only seen the American cut.
I'm also crazy about Jet Li, but I wish he could do parts that let him smile sometimes.
Silver Hawk I don't recognize, it'll go on the list.
Solaris was enjoyable, but I didn't think it was great. I do really like futuristic stuff filmed on location. Where the heck did they film Miranda? It had kind of an Arco Santi look to it.
God, after the screaming horror of the Zardoz thread last week, I forgot how much fun a movie thread can be!
Thanks to viral marketing...SERENITY: reopening soon in a theater near you.

OK, HK version, will traipse to find. I really enjoy seeing the original versions of movies that have been sanitized for Americans. Saw the re-release of original content Godzilla recently on the big screen. Wonderful stuff, and so pretty on a big screen with real blacks and whites instead of TV blacks and whites.
Hippie.
Yeah, I've been there too, and wished it was possible. It was at least 8 parts great idea, and I gave it big scores for what execution there was too, nestled into the hillside.

I liked Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid, but hubby was more partial to The Man With Two Brains...
