A little bit more PG than Ash's deep dicking thread - what are your top 5 favourite movies?

You may have liked Police Acadamy 1-5 the best (6 just plain sucked) - but try to vary the genres - and even provide some rationale for your responses. Give us all a bit of an insight oh why you like these films.

Maybe we can pool the results and have an SAU DVD night...

Anyhoo:

1. Aliens - Sci Fi

The movie that taught me to hate Paul Riser. A timeless classic of the space hero vs space monster story. A-grade acting from B-grade stars. The last great sci-fi adventure to be made with sets rather then green-screen CGI - thus giving it's endeering realism and the fact it is still watchable 18-years from its release. Ripley!

2. North by Northwest - Classic Thriller

Hitchc*ck at his finest. Funny, glamorous and exciting - with all the class of the 60's. Cary Grant is excellent as the accidental-hero. Always keen to mak the chicks, and stop for a dry martini. Fantasitc chase down Mt Rushmore - and that Frank Lloyd Wright house... mmmm.

3. American Psycho - Thriller/Arthouse

Every cinematographic element of this film is flawless. A good 'thinking' film - very dark humor lets you look past the implied violence for a more interesting story. Christian Bale is the best 'love to hate' character - and the business card scene always cracks me up.

4. A Life Less Ordinary - Romantic/Comedy

Under-rated. Bizzare 'angels on earth' love story - with awsome acting/dialogue from everyone involved. Top soundtrack too - Karaoke scene proves Cameron Diaz can't sing for sh*t :D

5. Akira - Animation

Manga benchmark. Fantasic animation, cool characters - and a bizarre WTF story that could never make it in the live-action world. The 'remastered' version is even better with full 5.1 audio.

Haha - top stuff!

I bought that on DVD last week - I hadn't seen it since 1988 or so. Jack Burton still rocks as a suburban hero.

My brother and I used to watch it at least twice a week - in fact, I think it was the first movie we 'pirated' with mum's VCR and granny's VCR and some stolen BNC cables. Ah - memories.

    • Nah, just take the other one off too 
    • Oh yeah forgot to also mention need to also unplug the IACV as well. Thanks for the reminder @MBS206 Unplugging the TPS takes it out of closed loop so you're able to screw down the IACV without the ECU trying to add/subtract timing to maintain the idle (not sure PowerFC can even do this, but Nistune and the OEM definitely does)
    • For sale is my 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T, tuned to 234 kW / 313 hp. I've had the car for a few years as my daily driver. The car is original (as far as Skylines go), with only a few minor upgrades to enhance performance and driving experience, as typical for such a car of its age. Overall, it is in great condition with no body rust, thanks to its earlier import date. It features a top-notch security system (not literally, but it's great!) with remote start and still functional 4-wheel steering via HICAS. It comes with several performance and handling upgrades, including:     Hypergear 450HP Turbocharger running 17 PSI boost, installed mid-2021 by Jaustech     550cc injectors     Nistune ECU     Front-Mount Return-Flow Intercooler     X-Force Stainless Steel Exhaust     Upgraded engine mounts     Bottom end bearings replaced     BC Coilovers     Lenso DR1 rims     Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE003 TL 245/40R18 97W tires, fitted early 2023 The interior is mostly stock, with a few additions:     Viper Satellite Tracking System with remote start     Bluetooth Double-Din Touchscreen Head Unit     Steering wheel cover Cons:     A few paint imperfections here and there     Driver’s seat shows more wear than the others. It's not torn at all, but I've added a seat cover to protect its condition. I also have a CarVX Vehicle History report available for serious buyers, so you don’t need to purchase it yourself. Price: $26,000 ONO.
    • I've had two suzukis in the past have an extremely hard time turning over and not starting after sitting for a few weeks. Ended up the alternator would seize up causing the starter to force. Same issue both times.  Maybe they're sourcing their alternators from the same place...
