Street Fighter

I never caught the end I left the movie after about an hour. Couldn't take it.

Braveheart, Last of the Mohicans, The Shining, I know the acting is a little gay but best flight sequences of the 80s Top Gun.

89' Batman closely followed by Batman Begins

is there such thing as a bodybuilder who's a film buff?

the films usually mentioned on this site are all terrible action flicks or comic-book adaptations, nothing 'serious'

There's a couple of us. I can think of Bay, offhand. But, why mention movies that people have never seen, let alone heard of!? You'll just get slammed, and maybe rightly so. $:-\$

RZA · « **Reply #19 on:** May 28, 2008, 07:51:18 AM »

Seriously:

-Ingmar Bergman's "Fanny and Alexander" (the 6-hour long version is even better).

-Once Upon A time in America

-Umberto D. by Vittorio De Sica

-Robert Bresson's "Au Hasard, Balthasar"

Hmm. That's Bergman's last one. I like the earlier ones, like Wild Strawberries. Fuckin' gloomy guy, Bergman. I find more resonance with the whimsy of Fellini - La Strada being brilliant.

Love Leone, but prefer Once upon the time in the West.

Umberto D is one of the 10 best movies ever!

I tend to like the Lubitsch comedies and I absolutely love Preston Sturges.

RZA · « **Reply #21 on:** May 28, 2008, 08:02:13 AM »

I love "The Shop Around The Corner", one of my all time favorites. I always quote that particular Bergman because it sums up all his obsessions and his artistic career in a brilliant way but I also love "Persona", "Vargtimmen", "Wild Strawberries" and most of his work from the end of the 50's to the 70's. I'm a big Leone fan, I've seen "The Good, The Bad and the Ugly" more than any other movie and "Once Upon A Time In The West" is also one of my all-time favorites. With "The Wild Bunch", it's the best western about the end of the west and the rise of "modern times".
