Title: Top 5 Movies You Wished You Saw on the Big Screen
Post by: Strangeluv on January 07, 2008, 07:33:07 pm

We all have those, right? You see it on DVD or on cable and you absolutely love it and regret that you did not see it on that big silver screen. This could go also for those older movies that would've been cool as heck if you were alive back then to see it in the cinema. Maybe for the cinematography, maybe for the lush score, maybe for the special effects or visuals, or maybe it was just TOO DAMN COOL for the small screen. So what's your top 5 movies (or any five or you can't think of a top 5) that you wished you saw on the big screen?

Me?

1. Pulp Fiction
2. Saving Private Ryan
3. The Crying Game
4. The Shining
5. A Clockwork Orange

These were the three I thought of off the top of my head.

Raiders of the Lost Arc
Rumble in the Brox
The Pianist
(Blade Runner)
Maybe also Spartacus. Spartacus was pretty awesome.

2001: A Space Odyssey (of course)
The Shining
Dario Argento's Suspiria
Eraserhead
Blade Runner (I heard it originally had narration, so that'd be interesting to watch)

Basically anything by Stanley Kubrick, Dario Argento, David Lynch, or Ridley Scott.

I don't know if I can really list only five movies; pretty much any movie I've seen that I don't hate I wish I could see on the big screen.
