    One of the funniest comedies that pops into my head is Sixteen candles. That was funny.
    Other good ones: Strange Brew, Real Genius and UHF.

    ok on the bladerunner front well
    eerr kinda drunk but this springs to mind as gooda movie sequance as I ever heard

    its reminds Me of T2 by the way think james cameron tried to pinch it??.....

    ok as I remember it

    Ive seen things you ppl wouldnt believe ....
    he does a mmmm or hhhhmmmm then ......attacked ships on fire of the of the shoulder of orion ....I watched sea beams......glitter in the darkness for 10 hours a day...... .......or ten hours a day '...........never figured that bit' ....all those moments in time will be lost like tears in the rain ......

    roy then says Time to die 'if I recall ' nods a lil n terminates

    damm thats a so cool film its unreal

    I opersonally believe that james cameron took blade runner n made it his own is T2 when the terminator learned the value of HUMAN LIFE .....

    as RoY did 11 years earlier ?? what ya think??

    Prisoner ....I sadly never had the time yet to listen to the directors commentry but it has to go down as an all time classic in My opinion..:talkin bout great escape ere : re T2 NOW

    I bought the UE edition from America oohh over 4 years ago n its on a dont fuckin touch shelf it has 3 versions ......dunno if ya remember the film like I do

    the UE edition on one side carries dd dts soundtracks ....a directors cut n the Ultimate cut which goes on 4 over 2/1/2 hours 157 mins if I remember rightly theres 3 scenes never shown else were

    the stuff they did 4 universal studios is on there to not fully but partly obn one side

    NEVER to this day checked the otherside

    its still the greates dvd I ever bought anyways

    DaOst, I do remeber the film quite well. The Extreme edition is almost an exact copy of the Ultimate edition. Alleast for the movie disc side. The only difference is the bonsus disc of the extreme edition has a high resolution cut of the film in Win Media 9 version. The major bonus with the Extreme edition is that its the first time James cameron has recorded a live scene specific commentary. James Cameron and william wisher are seperated with Cameron on the right speaker and wisher on the left.

    I don't think james cameron was riping off Bladerunner. Some of the final messages are similar, but James cameron has always has a doom out look on humanity and technology. His messages or more of how to fix us. Bladrunner was more about our fear of the unknown.

    How about the best, most titillating love scene?

    Mine goes to several of the scenes with Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly in the movie "Bound".

    Do you mean like porn love scene or romantic love scene?

    For Holliwood love pornish I would say Fight club, that was a cool setup with all the cameras.
    For romantic love scene I would say Charlie Chaplins City Lights. Theres no sex, but what the characters do for love is quite romantic.

    Both. I like how from the very start of the movie it slowly builds up to the deliciously naughty scene.

    Prisoner - I don't know if I would say Bladerunner is the fear of the unknown (I know we might be beating a dead horse here on the Bladerunner front), but I would say it really speaks about the ability to know one's self at all. Truly existential in some ways (I think Sartre is smartre! For all you fans of The Critic out there).

    As an interesting side note - Bladerunner was filmed mostly in downtown LA. That 20's and 30's architecture (first grand and then grand & depressive) really stands out down there as they clean it up (ironically) and you can almost feel the set of the movie there when it is late at night and foggy. Cool stuff really...the police department is the downtown train station inside!

    otnemeM or Memento<-- those who seen that movie, know what I mean, is the best. Clever script, well acted, and throws you for a loop when you get to the end. Also, I would have to say the usual suspects is another great film. can't overlook the lord of the rings trilogy as a whole. Almost flawless

    Very good films, I own both and just watched Das Boot today :)

    The Professional is one of my faves. Gary Oldman was simply insane in that film!
