This is an excellent thread, I hope no one erases it. I now have a reason to go to Block Buster. Two decades ago, I asked a younger colleage what his favorite movie was..."The Big Chill." It was a hit at home and I own it. I have not been in a theater since the Danny Glover's A-6 raid on Hanoi movie was done...1990? Christmas Vacation is a manditory own...Bloody Marys help. I don't do war movies, unless they're in black & white.

This one is on the rise, Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior
Return of the dark, no wire, no slapstick "kung fu" movie (eg. BL movies) and may one day become a cult movie.
This time is Thailand though, not Hong Kong or China or Japan
fans of Bruce Lee may like it

another trivia:
thanks to Bruce Lee, kung fu is well known in the west as those Chinese/Eastern martial art thing. The literal translation of "kung fu" actually goes more towards "skill," as in one can say my kung fu is cooking, shooting, painting etc.

The Chinese character of Wu shu on the other hand, means "war" and "art," which is more prone to the interpretation of martial art.
However, wushu is now known more as "martial" turned into "art", which is an acrobatic/dance adaptation of martial art moves.

Man, I can't believe so few people nailed that one as number one. A cult is a bunch of nuts. When that movie came out it played for months at the movie house on Bragg Blvd by the old K-Mart. On Saturday night's the cult followers would all show up dressed as their favorite characters. It would be a chanting session as they all shouted their lines along with the movie. They would see that movie over and over and over again.

Night of the Living Dead.

Kwik story. The area 'tween the mess hall and the NCO Cluf at FOB-2 is where they showed some movies at night. One night they showed this movie.

I had alla RT Claifornia yards with me that night. Joe was standing down in Saigon. The yard were gatehred around me, and as the zombies started munching, they crowded closer and closer. They had nightmares for 3 nights.

When Joe came back, he called me a dumb Mo-Fo for letting them see that movie!!

Rushmore.

"What kind of uniform is that?"

"These are O R Scrubs."

"O R they?"

162. EXT. CITY STREET - LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING

Sailor continues walking down the street. A GANG OF INSANE KILLER
TEENAGERS on PCP appear and come towards Sailor. They circle around
him, coming in closer for the kill.

SAILOR
What do you faggots want?

That’s all it takes. The gang is on him. Sailor tries to defend
himself, but one big punch to his nose sends him down and out. Blood

162. EXT. CITY STREET - LATE AFTERNOON/EVENING

Sailor opens his eyes and drags himself and his giant swollen nose up on
his feet. The gang still stands around him.

GANG MEMBER
You had enough, asshole?

SAILOR
Yes, I have... And I wanna apologize
to you gentlemen for referring to
you as homosexuals. I also want to
thank you fellas, you’ve taught me
a valuable lesson in life.
(lifts his head high)
LULA!!!!

Sailor turns around and starts running back. The gang watches him go.
begins to pour from his swelling nose.

classic scene, done in inimitable Nick Cage style.

I remember it clearly.

he was wearing a snakeskin jacket, black jeans, cowboy boots.

as the hooligan punks surround him, he pauses, looks around at them, lights a smoke.

then, fully knowing that he is already in for an ass-whupping, he asks, "what do you faggots want?"

easily the best scene in the entire movie.

I hated Willem Dafoe in that flick. Too authentic. Made me shudder.

I just saw this for the first time. It was weird, because I loved it at the beginning, then gradually started to hate the movie. It just took way too long to finish. By the time I got to the scene at the end, I was on the verge of turning it off.

This was my favorite line. I might even have to get on of those jackets. LMAO

Hey, my snakeskin jacket... Thanks, baby... Did I ever tell you that this here jacket for me is a symbol of my individuality and my belief in personal freedom?
