"The Train", starring Burt Lancaster. It's about a French railway worker who sets out to destroy a train bound for Germany loaded with confiscated French paintings.

"Paths of Glory" starring Kirk Douglas. An excellent anti-war film set in WWI, where three men from a French regiment are randomly chosen to be executed for cowardice during an aborted attack on a German stronghold.

'Bend it Like Beckham' is a good new release.

'Intolerable Cruelty' was surprisingly good too.  Didn't realize it was a Coen brothers film when the wife rented it, it just looked like a dumb romantic comedy, but it aint.

We're renting lots of movies this week, it's the first few days home from the hospital w/ the newborn.  We've got Lion King 1.5 as well, looks interesting (same voice actors as the original, supposedly not a cheap knockoff).

Starship Troopers is definatly a must see, again.

I saw that when I was just finnishing up 4th grade...


Give me more, most of these I've already seen!


I want war movies!

And any good Gamecube games I should get?
Title: Gamecube
Post by: RightF00T on February 18, 2004, 03:32:53 PM
Try Rogue Squadron: Rebel Strike and LOTR: Two Towers.  LOTR: ROTK leaves something to be desired unless you maybe have someone for Cooperative mode.  Mario Kart Double Dash is a party game and should be avoided if alone for fear of becoming depressed because you have no friends. :p  Splinter Cell is pretty good too.
