-Mallrats
-Slap Shot
-Young Guns
-Ronin
-Suicide Kings
-True Romance (this is my biggest suggestion....it's not a romance film by any means, and has one of the best ensemble casts ever. It wasn't directed by Tarantino....but was written by him. If you trust me hoops...and I know you do....check it out.
-A life Less Ordinary
-Office Space
-The Ghost and the Darkness
-Heist
-Tombstone
-U-turn
-Into the Wild
-The Big Lebowski
-The Beach
-Permanent Midnight (worth watching once....but DO NOT BUY)
-Boondock Saints
 
 
I own a shitload more (to many to name off), but I'm assuming you've seen most the others.
 

I just suggested True Romance as well

Awesome Flick

I was reading Mattbrot's quote about DD Lewis' performance in "In the Name of the Father" and my first thought was...."better than Bill the Butcher?"

- The Station Agent: great flick to watch with the missus
- DeerHunter: wedding scene was about 9 hours too long, but a great, great movie
- The French Connection: for the car chase scene alone, with no blocked off traffic. Supposedly that's how it went down.
- Ronin: best car chase scene, on a closed set. Very good list AJ
- As Good as it Gets: maybe one of the best written movies ever.
 
(The world is divided along many lines. But one division is those who have seen 'Snatch', and those who haven't. Have yet to meet anyone who has watched it that didn't say it was one of the funniest/best movies ever )
 
 
 
Got about 493 more in case you get really bored

excellent suggestions there

add The Bank Job

and In The Name of the Father. Daniel Day Lewis at his best

I do not want to over sell but man I really liked Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.  It was a random rental one night but I was very pleasantly surprised.  It is a little different and requires some attention but one of those movies that kept you guessing all the way through.  That and Usual Suspects are 2 of my favorites.

Then I'll take the advice even more to heart. 

I'll add "In the Name of the Father" to my Blockbuster queue and report back soon, Thanks 2nd.

 

btw.....for Hoops' sake with the thread title "que" means "what" in Spanish....a queue refers to a waiting line.
