Which to Choose? Marathoning Again.
 

Having a little movie night this weekend, before exam-cramming time comes along. I'm renting 6 films from the list below... and need some help narrowing it down to such a limited amount.

Lost Highway
The Matador
Being John Malkovich
Any Given Sunday
Pleasantville
The Big Lebowski
Ed Wood
The Thing
Misery
The Virgin Suicides

Lost Highway
The Matador
Ed Wood
The Thing
Misery
The Virgin Suicides


try them 6 dunno why

Well Ive oly seen 3 of them (:o), but they're all great films for totally different reasons.

Ed Wood
The Thing
The Matador

i hated leaving this one off the list :Being John Malkovich

Pleasantville
The Big Lebowski

I'd do:

The Matador
The Big Leibowski
The Virgin Suicides
Misery
Ed Wood
Lost Highway

in that order

--- I LOVE Being John Malkovich, but feel it would lose impact when lumped into a marathon...should be viewed seperately:)

The Matador
Misery
The Thing
Lost Highway
The Big Lebowski
Ed Wood

The Matador, Ed Wood and The Thing all ran in at 5 votes.
Lost Highway and The Big Lebowski come in at 4.
Misery and The Virgin Suicides are at 3.
Pleasantville has 1. It's gone.
Any Given Sunday has 0. It's outta here.
And Being John Malkovich is exempted for being too good for a marathon. :p

I give a vote to Lost Highway, The Big Lebowski, The Virgin Suicides, Misery, The Matador and Ed Wood for being those that I'll select. I'll definately pick up Being John Malkovich another time out-of-marathon.

Would everyone agree with this order?

The Matador
The Big Leibowski
The Virgin Suicides
Misery
Ed Wood
Lost Highway

i'd bump Misery for Malkovich in a heartbeat.

i never cared for that film.

have you never seen The Thing ?

if not - it should be at the top of your list.

I've seen them all and would go with these six in no particular order:

The Thing
Any Given Sunday
The Big Lebowski
Being John Malkovich
The Matador
Ed Wood

the order he said....

I haven't. I wasn't too interested in it either, all the acclaim is sure to let me down... plus I'm not at all into the sci-fi kind of horror involving aliens.

Lost Highway
Being John Malkovich
The Big Lebowski
Ed Wood
The Thing
Misery

i think this might suprise you ..
its the best film on your list

Well I'll have to see what's in-stock when I go rent a few films tomorrow night. I'll probably pick it up in the end.

lol I would put a vote in for The Thing also.
It was one I chose for a film night and it was a hit (even with non horror fans).

*copies list of films for other film night ideas* hehe.

I ended up renting... Lost Highway, The Thing, Being John Malkovich, The Big Lebowski, Pumpkin and Carnivale episodes 1 and 2.

Here's the nightly schedule.
6-8: ???
8-10: The Thing
10-12: Lost Highway

Which should I fill in for 6-8?

I went with...

The Big Lebowski
The Thing
- The Short Films of David Lynch -
Lost Highway

Any Given Sunday is a fuckng amazing flick. Make sure you watch it sometime, I would say now since there's only 3 games left before the superbowl and it will fucking charge you to watch the big game. Of course you could leave it for midway through the off season when you are jonesing for football, it usually makes its way into my player a couple times during the offseason every year. :D
