Another Night At The Movies.....

As for movies, how 'bout something by Akira Kurasawa, like Seven Samurai? (oh man i'm a nerd)

Did he do Yojimbo too? (Basically 'The Good, The Bad & The Ugly' with swords. Lots and lots of swords...)

Great Idea. I hadn't even thought about more 'down to earth' films. More, more, more!

"Apocalypse Now" (1979)
"Saving Private Ryan" (1998)
"The Lord of the Rings" Trilogy (2001-2003) (can you say D&D cross-over?)
"Leon: The Professional"
"Indiana Jones" Trilogy

Those could make very some interesting plots/twists. And speaking of twists, how about a natural disaster with "Twister"?

Yeah, actually Seven Samurai is The Magnificent Seven (another cowboy movie). And parts of Star Wars are based off of his movie Hidden Fortress. Any Kurasawa movie would be cool, just because they are all chock full of samurai and Toshiro Mifune.

ALSO:
Full Metal Jacket
12 Monkeys
Last Samurai
Gettysburg
The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe
LoTR (can't beleive I forgot that)

What about a less deadily choice like one of the muppet movies, or an old classic like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, The Sound of Music. :cool:

Certainly I wouldn't want to see a zombie flick like 28 Weeks Later or even Resident Evil. :heh:
 

Batman Begins, what with that whole poison thing and all.
Mortal Kombat? I actually statted out a lot of those characters some time ago. Fun indeed.
Braveheart/The Patriot
Oh, and Bram Stoker's Dracula, of course. ;)
 


Dude: one last player for your cinema crawl. Any room at the inn?
