Favorite Movies

I have a feeling i'm going to be watching a lot of movies soon and I was just wondering what peoples top picks were both for personal favorites and ones everyone should see. personally the cream of the crop is the princes bride and Monty python and the holy grail, although there are many right on their heals.

my all time favorite movie is "the salton sea."

it also has one of my favorite aphex twin songs in it, which is "rhubab" of selected ambient works volume 2. it is such a meditative track, and the more you listen, the more you notice the crazy oscillations going on. its the song at the very end...

i enjoyed "spun."

"natural born killers" is an insane movie, as is "american history x." "resevoir dogs" is, of course, a classic.
