I dont care if the rest of the list is filled with Adam Sandler movies. Those are two of the best movies ever made period.

And one I believe to be overrated, at that.

Heat too really - probably the best bank heist movie of all time, had Deniro and Pacino on screen together...it's certainly up there for that particular genre..

Donnie Brasco was dope too..

I still have the VHS of Heat.

I liked it but it's not a move I'll watch anytime its on (see: Shawshank)

Snatch is the most entertaining movie on that whole list and its the only comedy. Everything about that movie is fun from the score to the scenery.

The Usual suspects I kinda agree only cause on a 2nd and 3rd viewing you aren't wowed like the first time you saw it. Only cause its a mystery/suspense movie. The acting is top notch however.

"Arm Leg Leg Arm How you doin?" (c)T510

and The Godfather films are the BEST films

it's a classic in my eyes

Let me sport my Air Hyperbole 2010s in peace. (c) ansomble

Building repetoires (c) spm since 1983

does that make it a classic movie though?

I'm not really saying it's not? I can be convinced that it is...it's more of a visceral feeling I'm going off of

I'm a chick so Sharon Stone in Casino is iconic to me, and I love a good love tale with a hot Italian guy... A Bronx Tale has some of my favorite Quotables too, so does Scarface though...

=======================================
Coolin...

Casino and Bronx Tale are huge to me...

i'm not that huge a mob movie person so it's pretty much a toss up...

Snatch is one of my fav movies period though

since i slightly like the godfathers more than goodfellas and Heat and Scarface kinda cancel each other out i'm going with A...

but it's very close

so is that really something?

November 8th, 2005 The greatest night in the history of GD!

to keep em busy while you eat the prime rib.

King of New York
Pusher 1,2,&3
The Professional
Sexy Beast
City of God

Fresh
Malcolm X
A Soldier Story
Dead Presidents
Color Purple

I'd pick ^^ over your A and B (which would be a push if forced to choose between)

belong on the list w/these movies?

I'd replace it w/something like 'Daughters of the Dust' or 'Lady Sings The Blues' if we're talking movies that are universally recognized as classics.

1st thought was "Do the Right Thing" but two spike movies were a bit much

I considered Eve's Bayou also

Dead Presidents is a good movie tho (bokeem??! dog!)

I honestly off-the-top couldn't think of a unarguably better pick for the "Best Black Movie" list

It's just that the movies you has it listed with are some time-tested heavyweight films

I thought Fresh would be the one to get push-back (if anything I thought Dead Presidents was more known)

neither "Menace", "Boyz" or the other two you listed is *as* good (imho) than anything listed there

good...but not as good or better

>Menace II Society
>Malcolm X
>A Soldier Story
>Dead Presidents
>Boyz N The Hood

Nice lists otherwise.
