Sans boxsets... (so no LOTR, Harry Potter, Star Wars - I don't believe in cutting up series)

Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Saving Private Ryan
Best In Show
Dodgeball
The Matrix

I know Dodgeball is kind of odd to be in there, but seriously, it's an awesome comedy. I've seen it at least 4 or 5 times within the past month and it never gets old. Best In Show is a not-so-well known 'mockumentary' done by the exceptional Christopher Guest (Spinal Tap, Waiting For Guffman, Mighty Wind), about a dog show and the neroutic contestants. Brilliant. As for the others, they should speak for themself.

The Matrix



And yet you would cut up the Matrix trilogy?!?!

Come on-the first one is just filler for the second and third! I can't believe this!!!

Ack; forgot that. My bad. Although honestly, I feel The Matrix can stand on it's own. I viewed Reloaded as a good action flick that sort-of explained some more of the story, and Revolutions was just weird. Didn't care for it much, other than the attack on Zion scene.

Some examples, I got:

1. Saving Private Ryan
2. 13th Warrior
3. Zoolander
4. Cats Musical (don't laugh, well if you do laugh, try doing the moves they do in that musical... and sing too...

5. Finding Nemo
