[QUOTE=That Guy;208199]one of the python guys (terry gillam?) was involved in that... i liked it when i was ten. when i re-watched it a couple years ago though :/[/QUOTE]

terry gilliam directed it. I remember being a bit freaked out the first time when I was around 5 or so cuz of when some of the people get turned into pigs and especially when that dude gets his arm ripped off during the arm wrestling contest, haha.

gilliam makes some pretty good flicks... i'd kinda describe his work as tim burton on acid. "Fear and Loathing" and "12 Monkeys" rock!

Speaking of Goonies, I sat next to Data during opening night of Epidsode I a few years back... he was much older, but his voice sounded the exact same. I kept hearing in my head, "Fifty dowah bill! Fifty dowah bill!"

One movie i saw that i really liked was Ned Kelly, at first i thought it was kinda stupid but it grew on me, now i really like it. The end almost got to me, i thought it was sad the way he was forced to become an outlaw to help out his family.

Re: Favorite Movies.
 
Fandango is a really cool movie. I saw it for the first time when I had like a week left in college, and it spoke to me...

I love ranking things. Movies need to be ranked in comedy and non-comedy lists...

I submit mine and I dare anyone to disagree.. with one special mention:The Life Aquatic (my current favorite)

Comedy:
10.Spaceballs
9.Zoolander
8.Top Secret
7.Dodgeball
6.Spinal Tap
5.The Blues Brothers
4.Caddyshack
3.Airplane
2.The Holy Grail
1.Animal house

Non-comedy:
10.Apocalypse Now
9.Dr. Strangelove (really a comedy, but it belongs here)
8.The Godfather
7.Braveheart (although Mel makes me puke...)
6.The Empire Strikes Back
5.Schindler's List
4.Star Wars
3.Citizen Kane
2.Blade Runner
1.2001: a Space Oddesy
