Films worth watching again

[Annierak]

Brian Glover epitomised the male 'games' teacher of that era. My brother went through brutal realms of shite at the hands of a games teacher exactly like that...with the unfortunate name of Mr Crapper Our Lee didn't like football, and by the christ he paid for it

Great name

 

[sojourner]

Great name

We thought so - it was the only relief me brother got from the whole football fiasco

 

[Part 2]

The Departed

I rewatched that last weekend, definitely a good second time rounder. All my others have been mentioned too. Big Lebowski, Memento, Donnie Darko, Dead Mans Shoes.

Shaun of the Dead and School of Rock are my kids most watched films by far.

That remake has been in the pipeline for at least a decade now. In a way Crichton already reworked the premise already with Jurassic Park.

Truth time:

I've never watched the Wizard of Oz. Should I?

Yes.

 

[soulman]

At least tell me why you think I should watch it...

[butchersapron]

You should watch Army of the Shadows and stop crying
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0064040/

If you've not seen it, watch it twice.

 

[soulman]

You should watch...

 

[butchersapron]

I refuse to watch this film because a nasty man likes it.

Your loss.

[Vash]

80's films tend to be pretty rewatchable.

Awesome film.

And Matewan.

 

[soulman]

Matewan is a good film, but I'm not sure what I'd get out of watching it again.

Oh, right, sorry. Cos it's a well-rendered adventure with some clever touches, great design, fun numbers, and the witch and her accomplices provide genuine menace.
It's an Alice-in-Wonderland, Spirited Away, Northern Lights style adventure, and a technicolour breakthrough film.
It's a little bit gooey (as in camp, or sentimental) but it has real pathos, lucid dreaminess, and a romantic outlook that will warm the darkest cynic.
So... follow the yellow brick road .
