1. The Usual Suspects - Kevin Spacey is great - who is Keyser Soze?
2. Monty Python and the Holy Grail
3. Spaceballs - funny as hell
4. Snatch/Lock, Stock & 2 Smoking Barrels - very similar movies so I will put them as one.
5. Saving Private Ryan

Others that are near the top, Jaws, Kingpin, Way of the Gun, Clerks, Stargate (for sci-fi fans) and.........Baseketball (I just have a soft spot for this movie)

Since most of my favorites(favourites) were already mentioned,

Mad Max -(get the original mono version to hear mel gibsons voice not the overdub)

Dawn of the Dead- the helicoptor scene is great, but the blood pressure machine scene makes me look over my shoulder whenever I see one. (did that make sense?)

Monty Python and The Holy Grail- still quoted to this day :wink:

Heavy Metal- great soundtrack for its day

The Wall- high concept art film based on a high concept album, will induce flashbacks on people who have not ever done drugs.

Honorable mention for Jacobs Ladder, a must see.

Edit: didn't see brians post.

Vinny: Why are we stopped here? What's wrong with that spot?
Tyrone: It's too tight.
Vinny: Too tight? You could land a jumbo f*cking jet in that.
