Lord of the Rings - all Man With a Movie Camera Metropolis Playtime Red Balloon, The Trainspotting Trip to the Moon, A Williamsburg - Story of a Patriot Wizard of Oz, The These are all films where I see something new with every screening, and where I will go out of my way to see them if they are being screened at any theatre within a reasonable driving distance. I've seen them all multiple times in 35mm or 70mm. I think that Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow will soon be added to this list.  |  IP: Logged Mark Ogden Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 943 From: Little Falls, N.J. Registered: Jun 99 posted 01-18-2005 09:26 AM                     Almost any mid-fifties radiation-altered giant mutant bug-eyed monster flick, especially those featuring the stop-motion animation work of the incomparable Ray Harryhausen: The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms and Earth vs. Flying Saucers are my personal faves, followed by Twenty Million Miles to Earth and It Came From Beneath the Sea. Also from that same genre: Them!, Forbidden Planet, The Thing From Another World, The Giant Behemoth, and many, many more. Also: The Marx Brothers: Duck Soup, Animal Crackers, Monkey Business Almost any Hope/Crosby/Lamour “Road” movie The last three "Gamera" flicks, starting with Guardian of the Universe Blazing Saddles Metropolis 2001: A Space Odyssey The Fifth Element A Clockwork Orange Dr. Strangelove What’s Up, Doc? Annie Hall Manhattan Sleeper Monty Python and the Holy Grail (neek!) Life of Brian Ferris Bueller's Day Off (whenever the significant other and I dine out with another couple, I always make the reservation under name "Abe Froman") And on and on and on . . . . .  |  IP: Logged Christian Volpi Master Film Handler Posts: 349 From: Arlington, NE Registered: Apr 2004 posted 01-18-2005 09:36 AM                        Shawshank Redemption Blues Brothers Animal house Fast Times at Ridgemont High Blazing Saddles Pulp Fiction Ferris Bueller's Day Off Almost Famous Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas Election Swingers Clerks The Godfather There's about a thousand more but I'm drawing a blank...  |  IP: Logged Chris Mosel Film Handler Posts: 74 From: New Braunfels, TX, USA Registered: Sep 2002 posted 01-18-2005 03:55 PM                     PRINCESS BRIDE Stalag 17 Sgt.

The first sound-on-film projection occurred on 9/17/1922 in Berlin using the Triergon system on which movietone is based.  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan."

"Alien" & "Aliens" "American Beauty" "Animal House" Any movie from Pixar thus far "Apocalypse Now" "Apollo 13" "Back to the Future" "Baraka" (true 65mm/70mm) "Blazing Saddles" "The Bridge on the River Kwai" "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" "Das Boot" "Dark City" "Die Hard" "Dirty Harry" "E.T." "Fargo" "Fight Club" "A Fish Called Wanda" "The Godfather, Parts I & II" "The Good, The Bad & The Ugly" "Goodfellas" "Heat" "Independence Day" (guilty pleasure) "Jaws" "Jurassic Park" "Kingpin" "L.A. Confidential" "Lawrence of Arabia" (true 65mm/70mm) "Magnolia" "The Matrix" "Mars Attacks!" "Men In Black" "Miller's Crossing" "A Nightmare on Elm Street" "Poltergeist" "Pulp Fiction" "Raiders of the Lost Ark" "Raising Arizona" "Resevoir Dogs" "Revenge of the Nerds" "The Road Warrior" "Robocop" "Saving Private Ryan" "Seven" "Speed" "Star Wars" (the original trilogy) "Superman: The Movie" "The Terminator" & "T2" "There's Something About Mary" "Tombstone" (guilty pleasure) "Trainspotting" "Tron" (cool DVD, would like to see it in 70mm) "2001: A Space Odyssey" (would like to see it in 70mm) "The Usual Suspects" "Unforgiven" "The Way of the Gun" "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" This list could go on, but I think this is more than enough indulgence.  |  IP: Logged
