Okay here's a little something to think about. What is your favorite movie that wasn't a huge movie at the box office or that was not released and promoted by a major studio?A few of my favorites:1. Bottle Rocket (Owen Wilson)-bumbling criminals with dillusions of grandeur. If you liked Rushmore I think this one is funnier. "On the run from Johnny Law ain't no trip to Cleveland."2. American Movie- Chris Smith documentary on two Wisconsin film makers. Sounds like it would be boring but seriously it is pretty funny. 3. Rushmore- (Bill Murray & Jason Schwartzman)-Funny movie about a kid in a private school, actaully gets funnier the more times you see it.

Clerks

Clerks thats in the top 5. Kevin Smith is a genius, except when it comes to finishing comic book series, but that's a different story.

early Sam Raime movies, Evil Dead, and such, also anything by Roger Corman like Death Race 2000 yogi

Without a doubt, SLINGBLADE

Shall We Dansu? (Shall We Dance?) 1996Directed by Masayuki SuoDefinately one of my favorite foreign films.

Billiy Bob's finest hour."What'ya gonna do with that lawn mower blade Karl?""Mmmf, I aim da kill ya with it."JT Walsh was also classic in it."I like a woman with a lotta hair on her arms.""And there, before me, was this thin, crooked, uncircumsized (removed)!""You can imagine how bad I wanted my 25 dollars back."Sadly, I can recite this movie almost word for word. Everyone should check it out if you haven't already seen it.

GUMMO. Wierd but very good. Found it at Blockbuster.

I have one more to add to the list: FULL METAL JACKET"Gunnery Sergeant Hartman"From now on, you will speak only when spoken to, and the first and last words out of your filthy sewers will be "Sir!"Do you maggots understand that?

I can't believe that nobody has mentioned this one yet----Resovoir Dogs--Quintin Tarintino's debut film. It was never meant to be released, I believe the story goes. He made the film as a college film school project. MANY great lines in that one.
