Just watched Snowpiercer nice story following the book

What would you give this movie on a scale of 1-10?   I was going to watch it, but haven't had time yet...

I really liked it. Watch the trailer it doesnt give much away: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6UmqNuMdY4

I also love me some dystopian films one that comes to mind the "They Live".  That is a clever film indeed and another one I think is the "The Network".  I liked that one also and they are worth a watch.

Anyone seen both cuts of Anchorman 2? Is there a big difference between them?

I havent seen either in its entirety, but the extended one is like 22 or 23 mins longer

I read it's a much different cut with different plot lines as well though. Not sure how much truth there is too it.

The Island, 2005
Very well-made Sci-Fi adaption of the island theme.

Brave New World, Huxley (1980)
All-time classic (link is full movie), if you haven't seen it yet - it's a must see, cultural icon.

1984 (George Orwell)
Again, must-see if you haven't already (link is full movie). Cultural icon and frightening how close we've already gotten...

V for Vendetta, 2005
For all those that want to understand the background of the Mask, pretty deep movie (not your typical hollywood action blockbuster but still well-made)

Animal Farm (George Orwell)
Original movie from 1945, still very worthwhile to watch.

Lord of the Flies, 1990
(Full Movie) extremely well-made and dense social/psychological movie.

And someone likes dystopian films haha. I've read 1984 but not seen the film. I reckon it'd benefit from a modern remake though.

And if you haven't seen the film What Dream May Come you may want to check it out...

Less known (maybe a little pretentious) stuff Smiley

Jin-Roh: the wolf brigade
(Drama with a some bit of action, animated movie, but not your typical anime. Great piece of work.)

Los cronocrimenes
(Another take on timetravel, low budget movie, only for time-travel fans)

Sleuth (1972 or 2007)
(It's like watching a two man theater show, with a twist in the end)

Grosse Pointe Blank
(funny old school movie about an assassin going on a school reunion meeting)

Cube
(Cult sci-fi thriller with some claustrophobia and plot twists going on)

Brazil
(Bizzare movie about Orwelian Future with unimportant main character being an unlikely hero)

well I thought it was kubrik's work honestly so don't feel bad.  Clockwork Orange is another film I've been meaning to watch for along time and was under the impression they were directed by him also.

So I decided to do a search and seem to be finding conflicting answers.  I believe their both his films and will continue to believe so until someone posts proof that I'm to lazy to look for lol.

Weird, I could have sworn that it was Kubrick....

A Clockwork Orange is Kubrick, Cuckoos Nest isn't. All you need to do is look on IMDB or wikipedia.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073486/
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066921/

I wonder why we both thought that?   I remember seeing both of the dvds in the store and the letters on the box being almost the same font...but I don't think that would have made me think that they were both Kubrick films...

I was sure my buddy had a Kubrick film box set years ago and One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest was in there but I guess I was wrong.  When I searched there were other's that made the same mistake...  Maybe it was because of Jack Nicholas was the leading role it caused some confusion?

Nicholas wasn't in ACO so not sure why there'd be confusion lol.

Yea but he was in the shining ahaha wait that wasn't that funny was it lol.

I just google'd it..and Cuckoo's Nest was in Kubrick's list of his favorite films...but I did see some others that posted online thinking that it was one of his movies as well...

No idea, but I guess it's not a ridiculous mistake to make. Apparently Cuckoos Nest was one of Kubrick's favourite films: http://www.firstshowing.net/2013/criterions-compiled-list-of-stanley-kubricks-top-15-favorite-films/
