This is a thread for movie recommendations. People can post cool movies they've seen and all that other stuff. If it is the will of the mods, they could make this a sticky.

Anyway, here are two of mine.

The Boondock Saints
The Messenger

Contact was one of movies that inspired me to study science, and turned me on to Carl Sagan's writings. The ending bombed though IMHO!

How about guilty pleasure movies?

Mine is Mortal Kombat. The acting is atrocious in spots, and the plot is just an excuse to move from one fight scene to another, but I really get a kick out of this movie anyway.

OK, another one is Gangbang Girl 14, but I don't think that's the kind of movie you were talking about :)

I though it had a fairly good plot, except for a MAJOR COP OUT ENDING!!!! :evil:

Sorry. I love dragons, and that ending just didn't do them justice. :?
