That's just like, your opinion, man.

[-] Maturin@hexbear.net 3 points 7 months ago

Why is this one of the best lines of all time? I think it almost every day.

[-] cmhickman358@hexbear.net 13 points 7 months ago

Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (Extended Edition), Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (Extended Edition), Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (Extended Edition)

[-] Comp4@hexbear.net 2 points 7 months ago

Its certainly the best trilogy I can think of

[-] Owl@hexbear.net 12 points 7 months ago

the best three movies are Casablanca, The Man From Earth, and Princess Mononoke

[-] someone@hexbear.net 4 points 7 months ago

I don't trust anyone who dislikes Casablanca.

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 12 points 7 months ago

For me it's They Live, Aliens, and Empire Strikes Back.

I love scifi movies.

[-] delirious_owl@discuss.online 3 points 7 months ago

They Live, actually?

I mean the first 20 minutes were great, buy once they get guns it falls flat

[-] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 6 points 7 months ago
[-] OgdenTO@hexbear.net 12 points 7 months ago

The Lighthouse, Synechdoche New York, Super Troopers

I genuinely thought only a boomer could like Blues Brothers

[-] FALGSConaut@hexbear.net 3 points 7 months ago

Shit, I didn't realize I'm a boomer

[-] Lemmy_2019@lemmy.one 2 points 7 months ago

When The Blues Brothers was released, a lot of Gen Xers were teenagers. A lot of Boomers were already in their 30s. It's a knockabout farce for a juvenile audience. Boomer movies probably start about 20 years earlier.

[-] MamaVomit@hexbear.net 9 points 7 months ago

My Cousin Vinny, My Cousin Vinny, and My Cousin Vinny

[-] Dolores@hexbear.net 5 points 7 months ago

finally, a good fucking post on this godforsaken website

[-] dat_math@hexbear.net 9 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Would you rather watch Blues Brothers 2000 or a hypothetical 2024 sequel to The Big Lebowski?

[-] Weedian@hexbear.net 12 points 7 months ago
[-] dat_math@hexbear.net 6 points 7 months ago

Same lol

The question did feel like the fastest way to start a fight on this topic, but idk

[-] someone@hexbear.net 9 points 7 months ago

Casablanca, 2001: A Space Odyssey, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

[-] WashedAnus@hexbear.net 6 points 7 months ago

The three best Depeche Mode songs are Strangelove, Blue Dress, and the Big Muff

[-] HiImThomasPynchon@hexbear.net 5 points 7 months ago

Not one vote for Buckaroo Banzai?

Philistines

[-] naevaTheRat@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 7 months ago

idk they're winners but Rashomon is pretty much the GOAT.

It's beautiful, there's so much to chew on, and in the end the selflessness displayed is all the purer for the flawed person it comes from.

[-] EllenKelly@hexbear.net 5 points 7 months ago

I dont think any of these pass the Bechdel test, I know for sure big lebowski doesn't, I can't even remember dr strange love having any women in it lol

anyway, I think they're all alright

[-] Philosoraptor@hexbear.net 4 points 7 months ago

There's General Buck Turgidson's secretary/mistress. I think that might be it, though.

[-] delirious_owl@discuss.online 4 points 7 months ago

Big Lebowsk

Is that a prequel?

[-] MF_COOM@hexbear.net 4 points 7 months ago

Alien, Magnolia, Z

[-] hexaflexagonbear@hexbear.net 3 points 7 months ago
[-] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 3 points 7 months ago

Wrong.

it's willy wonka with Gene wilder, the iron giant, FernGully: The Last Rainforest.

[-] dat_math@hexbear.net 2 points 7 months ago

Stargate Atlantis, Stargate SG1, Wormhole X-treme

[-] Philosoraptor@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago

Replace Blue's Brothers with Young Frankenstein and you've maybe got something there.

[-] PapaEmeritusIII@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago

My partner and I had to turn off Young Frankenstein after 20 minutes because we were bored and didn’t like the jokes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[-] Philosoraptor@hexbear.net 1 points 7 months ago

It's definitely got it's own vibe, and I can see how it wouldn't land with everyone. Same with Strangelove and Lebowski, actually.
