Social War Room Lounge Thread #324: On a long enough timeline,

[filthybliss]

My goal is to finally watch Being John Malkovich, the Big Lebowski and 12 Monkeys before voting as they seem to be blind spots I have on the list. Maybe Donnie Darko also.

Big Lebowski is spectacular

That was a hard pole.

Lots of flicks on there that I really enjoy

So, not during the day? Ok, good. Vacation plans remain intact.

Just rewatching Bullitt on Movie channel. Another classic imo. McQueen at his best.
Cool Hand Luke as well.
Add The Sting while you’re at it.
Platoon, Apocalypse Now I could go on.

Bullitt is one of my all time favorites.

AOM approves of your post BTW.

Saw her pics... no need haha. Noone cared to look at that

Video was better than pics.

As it damn well should

Some of the options there seem dumb to me. I did IMBD top 20 cult classic films. Will replace some spots if no votes show up

I'd put Big Trouble in Little China near the top. Repo Man should be there too. The Tarantino ones are great movies but not really cult classics. Pulp Fiction was a hit and had a bunch of nominations, for example.

Holy fuck. You haven't seen TBL?

You should watch the Maltese Falcon; Chinatown; The Long Goodbye; Murder, My Sweet; and the Lady in the Lake first, as prep.

Didn't know you were into talkies.

Picked my favorites but big trouble needs to be in there. Hard to define what a cult classic is these days anyway. Pulp fiction I feel like doesn’t qualify.

Haven’t seen those first two. I’m not really sure how IMBD defines them but it is kinda odd Pulp Fiction always gets a mention

Yep, we’ve been through this discussion. I’ve been close to putting it on but still haven’t. Haven’t seen any of those other ones either

I just saw Bladerunner this year

Went to replace Labrynth with BTiLC but looks like the poll is locked in now.

Are those cult classics? They are all pretty famous and mostly critically celebrated.

I believe that's where the expression, "for lack of a better term" may come into play.

IMBD top 400 “cult” movies. I guess it doesn’t say classic but still seems to me like it’s not right
