Dang librasoul, I just PMd you and said I was going to come start this thread. It was taking me forever, so thanks. I love this topic.

I saw Requiem for a Dream and loved it. It was very disturbing, though. I mean, it bothered me for days after I watched it. I just felt dirty or someting. It definitely offers a true depiction of the ugliness of drug addiction. But, didn't the mother crack y'all up???

Mulholland Drive - Saw it, think I loved it, but can't quite comment on it yet.

Natural Born Killers - Now this movie is VERY violent, so if you can't tolerate a little killing, this is not the movie for you. Beyond all the violence, there is a message, though.

Freeway - I have a "different" kind of sense of humor, so this is one of my all time favorite movies. Reese Witherspoon is in it and she is just hilarious. The movie is supposed to be a spoof of Little Red Riding Hood, and in a way, it does have some semblance. I have so many quotes I randomly use from this movie. Man, I'm cracking up just thinking about it.

A Clockwork Orange - Now this is an older movie, but one of my coworkers put me on to it about a year ago. It has sort of a Sci-Fi feel to it, but man is it obscure. It's a must see classic.

Pulp Fiction - Again, one of my favorites. I'm sure most of you have already seen it.

Time Code - This movie is a little hard to follow because it is split into four separate squares the entire time. Within each square, a separate story is being told and you have to train yourself to focus on the right one at the right time. By the end, you see how all of the stories are intertwined. It is off the hook.

Ok, I have more, but I'm sure I have already totally dominated the discussion. I'll come back with more.
