I have not even seen that, I mean why do I want to watch a movie with Kate in it when she is in a parka for most of it. I did hear there was a shower scene, so maybe I need to rent it.....

Awwww...I only remember her in The Shining and Nashville. I know a lot of people don't care for her in The Shining but I think she's great in it.

As predictable of an answer as it is, and as much as I tend to stray from popular picks, I just love Seven Samurai the best. It was the first Kurosawa film I ever watched and it may always be my favorite. After that, it's Yojimbo. I first caught it on TCM at a 1 am showing about 15 years ago and had no idea what to expect. I'd never heard of it before. I absolutely loved it and later found out it was considered another of his masterpieces. Rashomon is probably third. I found it just slightly disappointing upon first viewing, having heard it was considered one of his best. But subsequent viewings I've enjoyed it more each time. Ran is great and probably my fourth favorite. And I love the ridiculousness of Sanjuro. I have to admit, however, that I still haven't seen Ikiru and Throne of Blood. :oops:

Short Cuts is great. Watch it. I just returned Nashville to the library without finishing it. No indication of how much I liked or disliked it, as I'd seen it before, just didn't have time.

I was about 16 when the movie came out (probably the target market for such a film) and, for some reason, had the LP but have never really sat down and watched the entire film. I have the feeling we're not missing that much, from what I've seen.

Let's bring the conversation down a few levels. Jackass 3D is going to rule:
[SHOW]
The scene starts with an overhead view of a very impressive model railroad track. There are beautiful trees and houses and even some little people. The camera cuts to a first-person perspective from the train as it rounds the corner towards a giant hill with a tunnel. Wait...is..that hill moving? And that isn't a tunnel, that's an [expletive]! There seems to be something coming out of the top...is it a volcano?! NO! IT'S [expletive]! That isn't a hill! It's Ehren's ass! [expletive] literally sprays EVERYWHERE. It flies at your face. Diarrhoea all over the little train, all over the houses. All over the poor little people. Everyone filming and watching is laughing and puking their brains up. So basically Ehren was standing in the middle of the traintrack and sprayed diarrhoea everywhere. EVERYWHERE. I know you might be thinking "oh..[expletive]? That's not so bad." But when it's liquid and meaty chunks of [expletive] flying at your face, it's not something you want to see after breakfast. Also the Port-O Potty scene is [expletive] up. There is [expletive] in there. Lots and lots of [expletive].
