American History X-Makes you think a lot and has a really sick ending.
From IMDb film-A former neo-nazi skinhead (Norton) tries to prevent his younger brother (Furlong) from going down the same wrong path that he did.
its got Edward Norton and Edward Furlong
Nominated for 9 oscars and won 2
Its pretty amazing

It depends what you have seen and like. I am a big movie nut. But I didn't like American History X. My college teammates liked it, but it just wasn't my style I guess (but I like most movies).
Going all disney on you - I really liked the Chronicles of Narnia. I liked the old movie, so that may be why. It starts slow, it has to, but I think the story is really good.
Always loved movies like First Knight, The Patriot, and movies like that. If you haven't seen them, definitely ones to see.
A movie that is not that great the first time you watch it, but the more you watch it, and when you watch it with a group is awesome is Monty Python and the Holy Grail. This is a group movie, and you have to have people that have seen it before watching it. As you get to knwo the lines, it gets better and better. I remember first watching the movie and thought it was ok, but now I think it is a riot.
My all-time favorite movie may be Aspen Extreme. Also really liked For Love of the Game (know a lot of people that have never seen that).
Want something funny that you probably haven't seen - watch Born in East L.A. This was especially funny at work when one of my co-workers got stuck in Japan cause their wife went home before he did and left with his passport. The movie is about a guy getting stuck in Mexico without any identification and can't get back to LA (tries to sneak across the border to go back home).
If you don't want to admit you like chick flicks (but you do), Serendipity is one of my favorites. I don't like John Cusak all that much, but this one hit it for me.
Got to love movies like The Goonies, A knights Tale and The Usual Suspects.

1. Rocky I-IV, Rocky V sucked and i really hope they dont make Rocky VI like they are planning to
2. American History X
3. Old School
Coach, another one that falls into that Chick Flick category is Love and Basketball. Gotta love sports movies, and you definately feel a little more feminine after watching it.
How about TV shows?
1. Seinfeld
2. Prision Break
T3. All in the Family
T3. House
