    Transformers 2 was the worst movie I've seen in a long time. Worse than the 1st.

    The new star trek movie
    Dark Night
    Forest Gump
    Star Wars(the ones without the guy who played as Anakin and ruined the series)

    Forest Gump
    Glory
    Waterboy (Actually, every movie in the 90s from Adam Sandler is a classic)
    Predator 2 (Didn't see 1)
    Spaceballs

    I think the Dark Knight is going to be a classic too along with the other 1.

    V for Vendetta was one of the best movies I have seen in the past 3 years. It was very interesting. The part where he tricked the girl into thinking she was being questioned, was definitely pretty unique.

    I enjoyed Revenge of the Fallen. I'll agree it's not amazing and there are a lot of things that were unneccesary(the twins) but it's still a half decent film.

    Spirited Away.

    One of my favorites. It is also yours. Because who doesn't like this movie?

    I could really argue against that, but it's just a blockbuster action film... so really... it meets expectations in the sense.

    I just found there to be waaaay too many plot holes to find the story line enjoyable. And while I like comic relief in movies like this... they went a bit overboard at times here...

    Bruno is just a shock value movie that will be forgotten by most in 10 years. It's the kind of movie I only want to see once... and never again after that.

    These are my favourite Scottish films:
    Trainspotting
    Braveheart
    Last King of Scotland (has strong elements about Scotland)
    Highlander

    Also there is a zombie movie in which a virus spreads across Scotland and it is walled off but I cant remember what its called.

    Also, Mean Machine has a Scottish guy in it who is funny and Ewan MacGregor is the man.

    Also, Fitzie in The Departed WOOT! Daniel Craig, not a big fan of him.

    Yeah, I agree with you on that. The Ali G show was much, much better than all 3 of his movies. They've progressively gotten worse. Bruno, with most scenes, it was merely a build up to the joke and he's harassed, essentially, the same crowd of people.

    I think the only thing that'll be remembered of the movies are the catchphrases, one-liners and the mankini.

    The Movie is Doomsday

    Then there is this other movie where Tom Cruise is some Irish Guy who moves to America. If you don't like Tom Cruise there are still some funny parts. Like he has this unruly horse and he decides the best way to tame is to punch it across the face and for a long time he is a boxer and hops around dodging blows and my friend remarked, "He moves which such grace almost as a fairy if you will."
