    Oh man, I'm gonna fucking love this thread! :D I highlighted #2 and #3 because they're VERY under-appreciated(well amongst friends seems like I'm the only person in the world that ever saw these 2 movies).
    I can't wait to see other's lists.

    1: Pulp Fiction

    2: Being John Malkovich --- Spike Jonze's directorial debut. Charlie Kaufman's first screenplay. A fucking masterpiece!

    3: Swimming With Sharks --- indie film, I highly recommend it. Frank Whaley and Kevin Spacey at their best. The ending is fucked up! I always try to plug this movie ever chance I get, usually in discussion about the 90's. :lol:

    4: Leon: The Professional

    5: Silents of the Lambs

    6: Reservoir Dogs

    7: Chasing Amy

    8: American History X

    9: The Usual Suspects

    10: Rounders

    add Saving Private Ryan and Fight Club to that list and I think we have a winner!
