Very simple and topic, what's your favorite movie?
I know it's quite random, but I enjoy watching good movies and want to see what others think are a good flick.
I'd say for myself, The Bourne Trilogy is on the top of my list.
BASEket Ball
Office Space
Orgasmo
The Wrong Guy
Night at The Roxburry
Donnie Darko
Those are just a few of the movies I watch over and over again.
* The James Bond series is always on top of my list. (Next one filming now)
* Indiana Jones series comes in second. (Cant wait for the new one)
* The original Star Trek series is in third. (never could get into the next gen)
* The original Star Wars Series is in forth. (I must be old!)
I have my favorites within each series but love them all.
All the movies of Arnold but the best that I like is Terminator series. And of others I like "Just Like Heaven" and to Top it "Water World".
Im an 80's horror nut to be honest but my fav of all time has to be The Crow
The Pursuit of Happyness
50 first dates
American Gangster
Shawshank Redemption
The Green Mile
Not a movie, a series. Prison break. i love it.
Star wars and Iron man (b/c i just saw it today)
Ironman looks awesome, how was it, as far as story and action?
Oh yeah, forgot to mention Back to the Future!!!!
Marty McFly: Doc, we need to back up, we don't have enough road to hit 88mph.
Doc: Roads, where we're goin' we don't need roads.
Biff: Butthead!

Since I'm bored and didn't search and see if there was a thread like this already lol. So the question is, What's your favorite band?
Mine is:
Muse FTW!
If I had to pick a current band it would be The Mars Volta
but I listen to a lot of underground Hip-Hop and in that case it would be MF DOOM

That is what I was implying Shane, that they copied everything Radiohead did so thus I like Radiohead better. Also I don't think that most people a little younger then me realize that Muse was a huge joke when they came out but because they are still around they somehow have this credibility...lol.
I like alot of bands, but the band im really into at the moment is ELBOW.
They have just won the Mercury Music Award here in the UK and the album The Seldom Seen Kid is just amazing. Would recommend it
No Finnish metal? Strange.
Korpiklaani ****ing rocks!!!
I like too many bands to list all, but this band has been breaking the sound barrier's for some time: MINISTRY
Minor Threat for their influence on me
Flyleaf
Aroarah
Pipedown
Audio Karate
All That Remains
Heaven Shall Burn
and the progressive increase in length up there was by complete accident lol.
MUSE!!! Duhhh, I am a pwoper pwoud MUSER!

I can't remeber any great movie in this year, but I think The Collector 2009 is mine favorite.
Definitely best movie of the year, if you haven't seen it, rent/buy/download; It is "Killer Inside Me"
By far the best movie, and you get to see Jessica Alba partially naked and doing it!
I love her and all of her STD's

The 6th movie (Half-blood Prince) was really bad. So, the only positive thing about the seventh HP Movie is, that it can't be any worse than the 6th
My fav is Machete
So far I would say inception.. but that might change this weekend... HP6!

I guess I'll talk about with Empty Walls how the Bush administration incorporated censorship in the US preventing american people from seing what really is going on in Iraq and Afghanistan. Also how rarely we see any caskets despite hearing how many soldiers died in those wars. This is also how the people have pretty much became ignorant of all the death. Also what I think the Empty Walls are are windows, through which we can see what is going on, but not sure how I can really formulate that.
Oh, you have to describle what the song says about...
Well, I forgot 2:
Hold On - Good Charlotte
And
Civil War - Gun n' Roses

MoPhoACTV Initiative
The purpose of this thread is to both provide others with ideas of what to watch and perhaps build interest in shows that you may have not previously considered.
List (in your own words):
The shows that you are currently watching
What the are about
Why you like them
Black Mirror (Contains profanity)
About: A dystopian future drama/sci-fi series in which humanity has become enslaved in itself. Each episode is basically it's own show and has some sort of bizarre twist.
Why I like it: It's bizarre, you don't really know the twist until the end and it is a fresh take at TV. Nothing is outside the realm of possibility on this show. (Netflix is renewing this one)
The Transporter (Contains nudity)
About: Based on the movies, it a series of mini-stories of Frank's life as the transporter
Why I like it While it isn't the same actor as the movie (Jason Statham), it is entertaining never the less. It's a bit cheesy but the plot lines are interesting and the special effects aren't bad.
X-Files
About: Mystery stories about the bizarre and aliens.
Why I like it: Really really cheesy by todays standards but its nostalgia.
Hemlock Grove (Contains profanity)
About: To be honest I have no fricken clue but see below
Why I like it It has a bizarre feel to it, almost like American Horror story'ish but better
LillyHammer (Contains profanity & Nudity)
About: A comedy mob story about a mobster who goes into hiding in Norway and tries to live a quite life but don't go as planned.
Why I like it It's got Steven Van Zandt from the Sopranos and it is just a funny awkward humors show.
Marco Polo (Contains profanity & Nudity)
About: Netflix's verison of Game of Thrones but taking place in Asia. That about sums it up.
Why I like it It's a different take on Game of Thrones (which I have never seen because I don't have HBO)
Orange is the New Black (Contains profanity & Nudity)
About: A girl who made all the right choices to live the high life find that they were wrong once she's grown up. Goes to prison and learns that life is very different.
Why I like it It's interesting to see how different interaction is on the inside and the characters she encounters. Crazy Eyes is hilarious too.
House of Cards
I just binge watched all 3 seasons of House of Cards this Labor Day weekend. It was pretty good and I recommend it. Political drama with scandals, getting ahead, etc etc
Very reflective of our current political scene with the lack of ethics etc, but holds your attention with amazing acting, especially by Kevin Spacey who was an awesome actor in his own right before the show.
Definitely recommend, and you can get all 3 seasons on Netflix, with season 4 coming in 2016 (filming now)
Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt
This show is funny as hell. And not that lame humor you see in most shows like Big Bang Theory and Friends etc (no offense if you like those shows) but more subtle and "intelligent" humor, somewhat like 30 Rock but even a bit different and better I think.
The plot doesn't matter too much, but it's some girl who was in a bunker for years while some dude had them in there because they thought the end of the world happened, then she comes out to see the world etc, but it's really funny and definitely recommended. Season 1 is on Netflix to binge watch, season 2 coming in 2016.
__________________________________________________
Both shows I mention are actually owned by Netflix, who in my opinion has hit home runs with their original broadcasting.
@SyCoREAPER - you've got me interested in Black Mirror now, never even heard of it and have been looking for a new binge watching show to compliment my Sunday NFL couch sitting!
I watch very little TV, I will go a month without watching literally anything then spend 3 days literally do nothing but binge watching a show, so these Netflix shows are really good for that purpose.

Not really on topic for this thread, but I think you can only do it with a VPN possibly... probably better to discuss it in another thread though.
