    Micah,

    Yes, Pulp Fiction or are you one of those people who couldn't follow what was going on? BTW, your picks---not bad.

    "2001: A Space Odyssey." This is the way it should have been, instead of flying trucks called the space shuttle, no moon base, no missions to outer planets...man...reality really screwed us over.

    another would have to be "Save The Tiger," although it is fiercely depressing. But the scene where he smokes pot with the young girl...........and rattles off all the old names. My God.

    Great flicks in this thread. I have to add a bunch of them -- FIVE EASY PIECES, SANDPEBBLES! -- to my rentmydvd.com list! Time to see them again for the first time!

    >> [PULP FICTION] are you one of those people who couldn't follow what was going on? <<

    Yeah, that original super-genius Quentin Tarantino really bamboozled me with his stupendous filmmaking skill and screenwriting innovations. Ever seen THE BIG SLEEP, pre-release 1945 version? Christ, PULP FICTION was a big zero.

    :D

    Sheer greatness......I taped, some years back, the unedited version off of AMC. Man, I got to watch that again, soon.

    Major hotties in that movie as well.

    I have to go with Heat

    Michael Mann made you love the "Bad Guys". And I have never had another movie experience like that. I wanted DeNiro (McCauley) to jump on that plane instead of going after Wayne Gro. I didn't want Pacino (Hannah) killing him. And you saw the pain in his eye's when he did, because Hannah actually liked him.

    Plus the cinematography was excellent from McCauleys pad on the ocean to the shoot out scene after the bank heist. And the final scenes in 5.1 at the airport are just plain terrific.

    Most of the other movies you guys picked were great picks, but for some reason I keep coming back to this movie.:D
