Saving Private Ryan
Shawshank Redemption
Dirty Dancing

I like gunplay stuff like Die Hard and Heat, also pretty much anything with Rodney, like Easy Money and Caddyshack. Used Cars is also an all time favorite. Plenty others as well.

It should go without saying that you should also be able to do a ton if quotes from any movie on your list. Smile

The Godfather
Young Frankenstein
The Fellowship of the Ring
The Pink Panther
The Naked Gun
The Seven Samurai
The Deer Hunter
Glory

(at least ten more if I really thought about it.)

Oh, yeah: (TMats)-- The Outlaw Josey Wales-- for sure.

I don't think many people know about Glory. Great movie, very well researched, my favorite Civil War movie. One detail skipped in the movie-- I have no idea why-- is that the actual Sgt. Major of the 154th Massachusetts was Frederick Douglass' son. The campfire scene the night before the attack on Fort Wagner is-- for me-- one of the most moving scenes ever.

additions:

The Man Who Would Be King
The Year of Living Dangerously

I can watch Heat any time, along with some of the others mentioned like Pulp Fiction, The Godfather, Casino, etc.

One that I have seen a bunch, and still laugh out loud during is Napoleon Dynamite. I've watched it a dozen times and it still makes me laugh.

A good movie and hard to find.

Of course my favorite scene is the naked chick on the motorcycle.
