Which classic should I watch?

[kneeblock]

For whatever reason there are several films I missed growing up that are considered classics. This week I'll watch one of them. Which one should it be?

Bear in mind, I know the basic premise and conclusion of all of these and have seen bits and pieces, but never all the way through.

 

[Hauler]

Jaws. Perfect summer movie.

 

[Ballzy]

Jaws. Perfect summer movie.

Almost as perfect as Platoon.

 

[Priziesthorse]

The Exorcist and Jaws are the 2 best movies on the list imo. However, I am going with The Shining. Afterwards, I recommend going down the rabbit hole of all the wild interpretations and perceived meanings of the film.

 

[RaginCajun]

Jaws.

 

[Psychotropic Wanderlust]

Silence of the Lambs.

but I would go all in and watch all 4 movies chronologically.

Hannibal Rising
Red Dragon
Silence of the Lambs
Hannibal

 

[Lord Vutulaki]

Silence of the Lambs bro

 

[Robbie Hart]

Fast times at ridgemont high.......thank me later

Because of Robert Shaw's Indianapolis speech. Brilliant

 

[Psychotropic Wanderlust]

Jaws

fairwell and adieu to the fair spanish lady.....

 

[Ballzy]

^^^originally I thought that too. But the introspective monologs from sheen and The better cast put platoon over the top. And heels...no contest. Barnes would eat jaws.

 

[SongExotic2]

I picked silence of the lambs. All time great

Here's to swimmin' with bow-legged women.

 

[Psychotropic Wanderlust]

Here's to swimmin' with bow-legged women.

Here lies the body of Mary-Lee, died at the age of a hundred and three. For fifteen years she kept her virginity not a bad record in this vicinity.

That used to be my toast when drinking with the boys...a classic

The thing about Silence of the Lambs is that it's a pretty terrible movie.

 

[Disciplined Galt]

Watching back to the future, according to my girlfriend I look like Michael j fox. Racist.

Had to go with Jaws. I don't know how many times I've seen it but I never tire of it. I think it holds up pretty well too. Obviously the close ups of the shark are cheesy but the rest is great.

I recommend slowly picking away at that list. A lot of great movies on there.

 

[Super Dave]

The only one on the list I've never seen Platoon. Speaking of war movies I've never seen Apocalypse Now either.

Room 237
