On that note, Did anybody else have the black kids come to their elementary and flip? Those dudes were bad.

The film was a criticism of the film industry, specifically aimed at the horror genre.

thought-provoking


Shindler's List - I thought about that movie for awhile after seeing it.

I'll throw 12 Monkeys in there - this movie was discussed among my friends often after viewing.

Not "intellectual" type thought provoking... but The Prestige and Memento are high up on my "gets yer gears turning" list.

Do you remember an old who done it from the 80's called Shattered? I'm drawing a blank but the main character played the catcher Jake in Major League.
