Follow up the trifecta with Requiem for a Dream for a taste of the fringes of suicide.
I think those two were actually first put out as a double feature in Japan

Or watch 2001 and go out and buy all the books and realise how sometimes, just sometimes, the movie is better than the book it was based on.
In no particular order
(apart from Robocop, that's no.1)
Robocop
Starship Troopers
Pulp Fiction
Moon
Dan in Real Life (met my current girlfriend on a plane. We started chatting while watching this. I know I know, I'm a soppy cunt)
I must suck at Google when it's in the damn title! Thanks.
I haven't watched and read some stuff that's considered cannon, but i'm kinda ashamed of it, to be honest. I had a period in my life after high school when i just wanted to educate myself as much as a can and watched a lot of classic stuff, Citizen Kane, all of Scorsese movies and so on.
I even watch some damn Bergman, or at least i tried to, but god dammit it's so boring.
I do too, but deep in my heart i know i would just hop into my max level character and grind fucking reputation for no apparent reason instead of actually enjoying any content. I will never be so blissfully ignorant in this game as Dan is

That might be a little too much phallic imagery for one evening.

I'm marathoning the Persona 4 ED like it's a show on Netlix, even though i just beat the game.
Whoever rates movies on imdb must be really mad at you.
I'd be more concerned if you had never seen a Kim Ki-Duk or Tarkovsky or Kaurismäki or Kurosawa or Polanski or Coen brothers or Lynch or Bergman or Woody Allen or Fritz Lang or von Trier or Bertolucci or Fassbinder or Kobayashi or Lumet or Tarantino or Jarmusch or Fellini or Truffaut or Forman or Godard or Rohmer or Greenaway or Werner Herzog or Antonioni or Beat Takeshi movie.
Did Dan say Blair Witch is boring and a dumb film? Then he is right.
I am as old as Patrick and saw the film when it came out. it did absolutely nothing for me.

I thought Running Man was fucking awesome.
Brad and Dan are going to be on The Lobby in about 2 and a half hours. http://www.gamespot.com/videos/rogue-legacy-the-swapper-the-lobby/2300-6420616/
The Blair Witch Project terrified me as a child.
But you have to remember, it was sort of the first of its kind. I remember newspapers being confused if it was real or not.
It was so built up. So hyped. And it delivered.
But, you go back to it. And there is pretty much nothing scary about it in the slightest.

Dan is right

Having Brad and Dan on is interesting. Maybe they are returning a favour for some GS members coming on this week's Bombcast. I'd be very happy if Mary Kish was on today's Bombcast, she is right up there with Danny as one of the top Gamespot staffers.

1. Lost in Translation
2. Children of Men maybe?
3. O Brother Where Art Thou is pretty good
4. ???
5. ???
I don't do many favorite lists but Back to the Future and Fargo are in my top 5 for sure. Back to the Future is my most watched movie. I would probably put The Bourne Identity in there as well. The first time I saw any of the trilogy, I watched all 3 in one evening. That was a good night.
Mary's great. One of the few GS staffers who aren't afraid of letting their personalities shine through - she even knows her segment on The Lobby is total bullshit and jokes through it while Danny takes the piss.
Wonder if the recent cull means CBSi might try to get more camera friendly/funny presenters? Even if their views aren't great yet, they must have realised their audience responds better to Danny?
Yeah, but everything is better than Assassin's Creed. That's some low-hanging fruit right there.
Collect all 100 low-hanging fruits.
pls repost this when it's on air <3

If you keep the tab open, I believe it will just magically start for you in a beautiful surprising way come show time

Not only do I enjoy how bitterly opposed to so much shit Jeff is, I revel in how angry it makes so many people that he doesn't like things they like.
I've been told not to believe your lies. I've been hurt before
Thanks.
I now what film I'm going to be watching next.
I've only watched Spirited Away and Shawshank Redemption on that list.

No.
What'd you think of Before Midnight?
I'm with you on Studio Ghibli. I saw Princess Mononoke and that was it for me. Two hours of exploding animated goop.

I love Dan as an addition to the show, but more in a train-wreck sort of way. The things that come out of his mouth astound me - I'm not sure if he plays it up or what, but it's crazy.
Just from the last podcast - not understanding recycling or biodegradability? Used a single shoebox for weeks to reheat frozen pizza in the microwave? Uses only disposable cutlery? As time goes on the list just piles up. It's marvelous.
He's no Ryan, but he's still a great complement to Jeff in a totally different way.

So many plebeians in this thread.

Totally. Tried watching Spirited Away and couldn't get into it at all. Didn't bother with any others. Sometimes I wonder if Japanese media is put on a pedestal just because it's Japanese.
That said, I've always been curios about the moving castle movie, simply because the castle itself looks boss on the poster.
Brick
Weekend
Audition
The Nightmare Before Christmas
Battle Royale
Everything except Brick and Weekend changes depending on my mood.
