There is so much out there and sometimes things get lost because
01: No big stars 02: Never heard of it 03: Crappy Cover 04: Heard negetive remarks
ect... But sometimes they are such good films. We should list some that others may want to check out, maybe we'll have seen them and then maybe not; and it will give us a good watch.
eg: Resident Evil 2; a lot of the horror fans bagged it, but if you look it as a action film first and dont see it as a horror. You will love it. Actions galore, little comedy, and some kick ass effects.
A few from my list,
01: (Underated) Blood and Wine 02: (Misunderstood) Cuthroat Island 03: (Misunderstood) Hudson Hawk
My mind has gone blank now, but I will add more in over time.

There are a ton of underrated quality movies out in the world...some aren't in English either...

The first Resident Evil is one of my favorite movies of all time. The second one kinda sucked tho...
Yea, i love a lot of obscure (or maybe smaller movies) I cant think of too many off hand. Some that do spring to mind are :- (a) Mr Wonderful - a sweet romantic comedy (b) The craft - Neve campbell at her best. Teen horror at her best! (c) Deuce Bigelow - the first one. Ok it was ripped apart by all critics, but it is the funniest movie EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! ok, not really an obscure title but...... (the second one sucked eggs tho!)
Im sure there are so many good ones dude, but my memory is not wat it is this morning. I blame lack of sleep!!!!!

Mr. Wonderful was okay...speaking of Matt Dillon, did you see Over the Edge...teenage rebellion... Loved The Craft...this one is actually on laserdisc...haven't gotten it on DVD yet...I thought Fairuza what's her name was good (and scary)...Neve's got 5 movies going now...1 completed and 4 in pre-production...and her brother is in a new series on NBC called "Book of Daniel" starting January 6th... It's not ur memory...there are just tooooo many of them...

I was thinking of this thread on the way home from work the other day. Another cool underrated movie is "CELLULAR". the chris evans and kim bassinger movie. I love this movie. Non stop suspense. action and chase scenes. If your into action movies, you gotta watch this. I knew from the trailer that is was gonna be good. The trailer just blew me away. And not coz of chris evans hehe hes too buff for my liking. I like em skinny!! Strange, i also remember The craft on laserdisc. The witchs name is Fairuza Balk! Hehehe i remembered her. The blonde haired good witch is on my favorite show at the moment - Prison Break. I love that show, and i love wentworth miller. He is the perfect male specimen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cool neve campbell has a lot of movies out soon. the last one i saw was When Will I be Loved, where she finally showed her tities and she is the o nly reason i endured The Company. The things i do for my neve love! So im assumin your a neve fan too by your knowledge. Thats cool.

I should have looked, but, didn't and could not remember her last name...I just liked the way she went off...Love Prison Break...don't think ti will last though...Fox has a way of doing that...killing a show, that is...Either way, I recorded all the episodes so...I do like the doctor too...she was on the short lived Tarzan series...now just have to wait till March to see new episodes again... Yeah, first saw her on Catwalk...loved that series...Keram Malicki-Sánchez was in it too...I remembered him from the series War of the Worlds...anyway...time to stop rambling on...

Yea i read bout that Old School guy....RIP to him! Dude, ringworld, i cant beleive i found another Prison break fan! YES! I dont think somehow that Fox will kill it, but theyre bringing it back for mid-season only. Yea, theyre certainly f**king up with the reschedulling.....but you know why theyre bumping it, even tho its a certifiable hit. Theyre clearing everything out of the way for their ratings powerhouse, American Idol in January! Seriously, American Idol is cool and all, and i follow it religiously, its just that im still pissed they cut Prison breaks term short. I was soooo addictive. I liked Marshall Allman as well, Wentworths nephew. He had that long haired shaggy look i really find hot! The doctor is cool......but somehow, a straight love interest for wentworth....pisses me off. Id rather see him hook up with one of the inmates

Actually haven't watched it past the first season...Yeah, Marshall's cool, just wanted to smack him upside the head a few times though...good writers I guess...hehe hehe, let me guess, the you wannabe...i'm waiting to see if they find out he snitched all for a cheeseburger...I also want to see what happens to the resident perve when Abruzzi gets out of the hospital...

Why you wanna smack Marshall for? silly ringworld......you dont hav to be jealous dude, you know hes just my male-totty of the week. Im still yours.... Actually, i dont wanna see wentworth hook up with the 'cheeseburger' snitch (well hes the second choice). I actually wanna see him hook up with Marshall almans character. Is that wrong? hehehe i mean, i dont find any of the other dudes remotely attractive. Which is not so worrying i guess, coz i dont wanna be attracted to inmates And for the aussie members out there...im not too sure if you know this, but Holly Valance plays a russian stripper in the series. Lucky girl must have a good agent, breaking into hollywood. Yea, kinda wish that Prison Break was just after AI. I mean, whoever gets that slot is some lucky f**ker. I mean Greys Anatomy has found success, just being after a hit show in time slots (cant remember, either CSI or D. Housewives i think). Can you guys tell how fixated i am on tv and movies. I live as far away from the US as possible, but i can answer anything bout US tv schedulling. Am i dedicated or am i dedicated!

It's just that for a genius he's made some stupid mistakes, but that's the writers again... His own nephew!!! well, there really aren't any other choices so, no, it's his nephew...hehe... I was pissed at her character too...giving in to Bellick...she was good though... No listing yet so not sure, but yeah, lucky...Grey's is on after Desperate Housewives... Scary dedicated...hehe... hmmm...hijacked this one too... So, speaking of obscure titles have you seen Must Be The Music? Milo Ventimiglia was in it...not really a movie, more like a short, but, since Gilmore Girls he's moving up...gonna play Rocky Balboa, Jr. in the new Rocky movie...not such and obscure title, but...

Havent seen Must Be The Music, to be honest never heard of it. We dont really get 'shorts' here, but if u recomend it, i might look it up. Wats it about? Yea, hes a pretty decent guy. I used to watch Gilmore Girls, but sorta lost interest since they moved the time slot to a much later time here. I like him, he isnt too tall isnt he? Hehehe just like me. I like that! Tall guys piss me off (maybe coz im short myself) Im just 5'8. Im not gonna watch the new Rocky movie tho. Never ever seen the original. Not a stallone fan. Sorry to all of his fans, but i jst dont like him. And ringworld, if i dont Hijack threads this would be a pretty dead room. Hehehe we could be 'evil' and carry our chats into private, but that would be pretty selfish of us hehehe but i have a tendency to be evil! if pushed heheheheh *kidding*
