Movie requests
Yes, two posts one right after the other, but I don't have much else to do right now so I'm posting anyway.
OKAY SO, in the month of August (so a couple of weeks from now) I think that I am going to hold off on any video games until BBS comes out, and instead focus on movies. For how much I want to, y'know, work in entertainment, I don't think that my movie literacy is up to snuff. So in the month of August, I will make it a point to watch one movie that I haven't seen yet every day of the month. 30 new movies should help me a bunch!
Flist, I want YOU to recommend me movies to watch! It can be anything you can think of, but since I am specifically looking to expand my movie literacy, I am looking for classics and/or landmarks in film. The sort of things people go "what, you haven't seen that?!" when you mention not having seen it.
- Black and white films are a-o-kay, even encouraged. Any time period is fine.
- Comedy, drama, action, don't care what it is, as long as it's good. I am not a fan of horror/slasher and would rather avoid horror recs (unless it's a classic/landmark film, like 'Alien.')
- No classically bad films, please! I get plenty of my bad-film dosage from MST3K! Would prefer good films for this.
- I love animated films the most, but just FYI, you will be VERY hard-pressed to find a Disney film that I haven't seen.
- If I've already seen it, I'll let you know!
EXTRA CREDIT: If you can link me to your movie rec on YouTube, Hulu, iTunes or any other place online, in return I will give you a free sketch request! (Something small and non-complicated, please.)
THANK YOU FLIST! And in return, I'll offer up a few movies that are pretty classic that other dudes may not have seen yet:
Wait Until Dark (Thriller/Suspense, 1967)
It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World (Comedy, 1963)

- History of the World Part I (I love it, but it's veeeery dirty... for the 70's.)
- Dracula: Dead and Loving It (This one isn't all that good, but it's worth a watch.)
Outside of the realm of Mel:
- Monty Python's Life of Brian (if you can handle brief full frontal male nudity)
Here's some more MODERN comedies that get the GG Seal of Approval:
- Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy
- Dodgeball
- So I Married An Axe Murderer
- Both Wayne's Worlds. REQUIRED VIEWING.
- Zombieland if you haven't seen it yet
