I haven't seen Collateral, Funny People, Step Brothers (heard good things about this one), Count of Monte Cristo, Defiance, Kingdom, Open Range (heard good things about this one too), Ghost Town or Dodgeball. I've seen There Will Be Blood (not worth watching), Public Enemies (never finished, not that much interest in it), V for Vendetta (some eye candy, but meh), Superbad (saw bits and pieces, want to finish it). The ones I highlighted in red and bold are must sees. Especially the Departed, Butch Cassidy, Taxi Driver ("wash the streets"), Dark Knight and Shaun of the Dead.

Out of the ones you havent seen i would say you should watch, the kingdom, collateral, and ghost town i thought was a pretty good plot...but i have to say out of my list of favorites Gangs of New York and The Departed are my favorites, i mean directed by Scorsese with DiCaprio and all the other fantastic actors, it just doesnt get much better, IMO
 
I just saw Raging Bull for the first time a couple days ago. Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, Casino, all great movies, especially Goodfellas.

The Departed is his best work IMHO. Great in the theater, great on dvd at home.

well i think im gonna watch goodfellas next, ive only seen pieces here and there, i think i need to watch the whole thing:thumbup:
 
Some that I like that haven't been mentioned:

Donnie Brasco
Gran Torino
Unforgiven
The Culpepper Cattle Co.
Death Wish
 
Anchorman with Will Ferrel, The Sting, Mean Streets, and Desperado.
 
" The Searchers ", ..... John Wayne. :thumbup:


:thumbup: I was just thinking of the "Searchers" while reading thru earlier posts, great choice. "Zulu" is one of my favs. "Last of the Mohicans" with Daniel Day Lewis is another.

If you get around to TV series, "Firefly" is worth checking out. "Torchwood" on BBC is pretty good, too, IMHO.
