recommend me a movie
here are the criteria
1) engulfing- I want to be into it and forget everything else 2) follow up- I should get so into it I am excited and want to find out info about it afterward, if this is available it is a bonus. (i.e. Highlander, star trek shit) 3) fantastic- great movie and not sucky 4) well made 5) it can be funny as well. But it'd need to be like annie hall or come close Quote:

They are all freaking great. Any one you choose will be a good choice. You should watch every single one of them in fact. Out of the ones you listed...
- COMEDY Living in Oblivion - Steve Buscemi tries to direct an indie movie but everything keeps going wrong. The Naked Gun - Come on. Swingers - Swingers. The Ten - I love this fucking movie. It is such stupid/surreal humor. 10 diff stories based on the 10 commandments. Wet Hot American Summer - Same director/writers as above. One of the funniest movies ever imo. Real "silly" humor. - WEIRD/trippy/fucked up Audition - The last half hour is the most fucked up shit ever. First half is good but slow, but then it just gets insane. Barton Fink - My god I love this movie. It is slowly paced but so fucking perfect I can't even describe it. Also, John Goodman. Blue Velvet - David Lynch. Dude finds an ear on the floor, then tries to solve the mystery behind it. If anything watch it just for Dennis Hopper's performance/character. Dead Ringers - Identical twin gynecologists. One confident, one shy. They get addicted to drugs. Everything gets fucked up and bizarre. David Cronenberg movie. Eraserhead - It is Eraserhead. David Lynch movie. Weirdest shit ever. You will either love it or you will hate it and not understand why people like it. It is one of the best movies ever though IMO. Amazing mood it sets. Creeps me out. Eyes Wide Shut - Kubrick's last movie. It's gonna be hit or miss for you. I love it so much and Kubrick says it's his best movie so who is everyone to argue with him. Freaks - Yeah like you described. Love this movie so much. I watched it like 5 times in a week the first time I saw it, couldn't get it out of my head. Mulholland Dr. - David Lynch. Weird as fuck movie. Makes no real sense. Lesbian sex. Open Your Eyes - Most perfect concept for a movie ever. Great looking guy, has everything, has accident, his face gets fucked up, nobody likes him anymore. Run Lola Run - Story is told 3 different times, with 3 diff outcomes each time. It's cool. Vanilla Sky (remake of Open Your Eyes. Both are good. Original is prob better) Yellow Submarine - Yellow Submarine bro. Trippiest movie ever. Blood Simple - First Coen brothers movie. Love it. Guy hires a hitman to kill his cheating wife. Boogie Nights - One of the most perfect movies IMO. About the PORN industry. Lilja 4-ever - saddest movie I've ever seen. Amazing. You have to watch this. Dog Day Afternoon - Al Pacino. Classic. Glengarry GlenRoss - Incredible. Incredible. You have to watch it. Goodfellas - It's Goodfellas. Watch it. Happiness - Most fucked up movie I've ever seen. I love this fucking movie so much it's unbelievable. In my top 3 fav movies probably. Darkest humor possible. Kids - AIDS Paths of Glory - Best war movie I've seen besides Full Metal Jacket. Kubrick also directed this. Show Me Love - same director as Lilja 4-ever. Amazing also. True Romance - Written by Tarantino. It's great. Watch it. Welcome to the Dollhouse - Same director/writer of Happiness. About a nerdy girl. It is good.

Also if you don't mind foreign films watch The Diving Bell and the Butterfly. It was recently released on dvd. The best film of 2007.

Just watched The Ten as suggested by AAA. Normally any movie I have seen AAA recommend I either already love or I watched it and it became one of my favorites. Not the case here. While The Ten was good and had it's moments, I wasn't overly impressed.

The Ten is amazing. It is a love it or hate it movie though, depending on your sense of humor. I love all the guys from The State and that kind of humor in general. Did you like Wet Hot American Summer? So many people I recommended that movie to hated it but I think it is one of the funniest movies ever.

Acid House, look it up.
I liked the collection of stories in book form better, but if you haven't read them the film is definitely one to watch. I think it is subtitled for those of the cross Atlantic persuasion. |

I am yet to see Wet Hot American Summer, but it has Christopher Meloni in it. That scores it points from me.
