Blue Ruin ..... written and directed by Jeremy Saulnier (Green Room, Hold the Dark, Rebel Ridge) is one of my favorite revenge films.

I like to consider myself fairly well versed when it comes to movies, but I have never even heard of this one. Looks interesting will check it out.

Also, I’ve never seen black rain with Michael Douglas, any good?

This thread blew up fast so I haven't had a chance to read through it. Hopefully these aren't duplicates.

The Villain (1979) - western comedy directed by Hal Needham, starring Kirk Douglas, Ann-Margret, and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

There Was a Crooked Man (1970) - Western comedy starring Kirk Douglas and Henry Fonda. Maybe the only western I've seen that includes a poontang joke.

There's some LOL names being thrown out here.

Michael Douglas in Wonder Boys? Someone thinks less than 10% of this board has seen that movie?

Boiler Room with Ben Affleck, Vin Diesel, and Giovanni Ribisi's first hit, but you don't think 10% of this board has seen it?

Butterfly Effect? LOL. It was a blockbuster with Ashton Kucher at his peak of fame.

I got a submission.

It's a movie about a killer shark made by a no-name director with mostly no-name actors at the time. And it's over 50 years old so it's old and so obscure that probably less than 10% of people on this board have seen it.

Maybe instead of being a dick in one of the better threads this board has had lately you should watch the movie again, Shia LaBeouf is not in Boiler Room.

Some people just want to shite on others to make themselves feel smart. It's easier than having an original thought.

Nasty habit on this board

Gun to my head, I would bet less than 10% of this board saw Boiler Room, Glengarry Glenross, Tin Men, and many other presumed classic films. How many watched White Heat? Not as many as you'd think, but we all know the oft misquoted "Made it, Ma. Top of the world!"

It would surprise some to learn how many watch the films through clips and synopsis. My Son was telling me how common that is at LSU.

Mako: Jaws of Death? HOLY shite.

I figured I was the only guy who has seen that movie b/c my dad worked on it.

Have you ever seen Whiskey Mountain? My dad worked on that, too, but it's more low budget and obscure.

Wouldn't be surprised. Have you seen a lot of threads or discussion about it on here?

Both are really good. Though, Star Chamber has better staying power, Black Rain is good for what it is.

Aronofsky is a weird bird. He can cut you deep with The Fountain and then leave you scratching your head with Mother.
