Dambusters (617sqdn's raid on the Dams of the Ruhr valley)
633 Squadron (633sqdn's raid on Norway)
I believe that both the above were used as source material for the Deathstar attack in StarWars IV
12 Angry Men (Henry Fonda and 11 other actors in one room in real time. B&W but riveting)
The Man in the White Suit (Sir Alec Guiness What happens if someoen develops clothes tht never need washing?)
Maltese Falcon (No introduction needed)
When Harry met Sally (How I started to figure women out)
Chopper Chicks in Zombie Town (Best Tromo ever, very very funny)
Pitch Black
Mad Max II
Brazil (Terry Gilliam again)
Aliens
Snatch (London Criminals getting proper mental)
Once upon a Time in the West (Classic western)
The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai across the Eighth Dimension (Peter Weller, Jeff Goldblum, John Lithgow before they were famous)
Robocop (Too many good one liners)
Terminator (Spoilt only by the tanker sequence at the end. "Sarah Conner?")
Excalibur (Patrick Stewart, Liam Neilson, Helen Miram & friends - top class!)
Free Money (Low budget Charlie Sheen vehicle, co stars Donald Sutherland & Marlon Brando)
Apocolypse Now - Original Cut (Like Bladerunner an awesome film tat should have been left in its original format)
Big Trouble in Little China (John Carpenter, Kurt Russell "You know what Jack Burton always says... what the hell?")
The Thing (John Carpenter, Kurt Russell - the ultimate stalker -awesome)
Invincible (Dodgy martial Arts movie with Billy Zane taking the Mick for the entire film!)
and anything starring Jackie Chan,especially the older stuff...
Dude - we like a whole lot of the same movies. I can't believe someone else liked Buckaroo Banzai. Cool.

Yep Buckaroo was great. I like to many movies to list, but i have the majority of what has been posted here on DVD. Evil Dead2 is one of my favorites, all the Dead movies and if it has anything to do with time travel or a "bug hunt" I'm into those too!

An Evil Dead without Bruce Campbell is not an Evil Dead movie. Bruce rocks.

No particular order:
Goodfellas
gambling
The Cooler
Star Wars (original trilogy, though Episode III was pretty good, except for Vader's cheezy "NOOOOOOO" at the end)
Star Trek: The Wrath of Kahn
Star Trek: First Contact
Star Trek: Insurrection
Coming to AMerica
Indiana Jones Trilogy (please, Lucas; don't wreck it with another one)
Lethal Weapon I
A Few Good Men
Godfather II
American Beauty
Braveheart (Awesome; but not historically accurate at all)
Gladiator
Die Hard (set the pace for all action movies after it)
