BlackFlagg Posted June 28, 2008 Report Posted June 28, 2008 oh you bastard, that was one of my few must haves <shakes fist>
Nighthawk Posted June 28, 2008 Author Report Posted June 28, 2008 I think it would just go Coffin Surfer to Milky twice, and then start over with Milky again and then continue in Serpentine after that since we had two rounds forward. Ok, we're doing this then. I trust you.
Nighthawk Posted June 29, 2008 Author Report Posted June 29, 2008 This false start makes it difficult to tell who... Well, we've had two full rounds of Milky to Coffin Surfer, so now begins two full rounds of Coffin Surfer to Milky. So I guess, next choice is to Coffin Surfer, and the last choice was made by... Coffin Surfer. Since Detox was taking a lost pick... GAH! This was why I didn't want to run this, but hopefully it'll pan out in the end. In any case, we have two rounds of Coffin Surfer to Milky ahead of us.
Detox Posted June 30, 2008 Report Posted June 30, 2008 This false start makes it difficult to tell who... Well, we've had two full rounds of Milky to Coffin Surfer, so now begins two full rounds of Coffin Surfer to Milky. So I guess, next choice is to Coffin Surfer, and the last choice was made by... Coffin Surfer. Since Detox was taking a lost pick... GAH! This was why I didn't want to run this, but hopefully it'll pan out in the end. In any case, we have two rounds of Coffin Surfer to Milky ahead of us. If I wasn't supposed to pick I apologize, I will check back and make sure I stay with the rules.
Nighthawk Posted June 30, 2008 Author Report Posted June 30, 2008 No, you were. Since you missed your last pick, you were allowed to take it at any time.
Coffin Surfer Posted June 30, 2008 Report Posted June 30, 2008 Animal House 1978 The ultimate goofy fun comedy for me, really surprised this hasn't been took. A huge cast with everyone in top form and getting more than a few moments to shine.
Gert T Posted June 30, 2008 Report Posted June 30, 2008 Thats a great pick. I could probably watch that movie a 100 times and still enjoy it.
Aero Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 So, I think Detox missed his pick a long time ago, and it's now YNA's pick.
Youth N Asia Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 Young Guns Don't care if this movie wouldn't have gone till much later...I won't miss it. Favorite movie ever and I can quote the hell out of it while watching
Blade2kxx Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 ... I'm glad I went with logic. I just hope I get another crack at what I almost went with. The Incredibles - 2004 - Brad Bird Simply put, it's probably Pixar's best film, though, choosing between Pixar films is like choosing between flavors of chocolate. The ripe characterization is a norm for the company, as well as jaw-dropping visuals. What seperates and makes this film Incredible, to use a bad pun, is both the action, which is as good as any superhero film I've ever seen, and the joy that the movie brings. When Dash runs across water, you're laughing, cheering, and ready for more...
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted July 1, 2008 Report Posted July 1, 2008 Lethal Weapon (Richard Donner, 1987) - My favorite movie since I was a kid. It would've probably never been selected but I can't risk losing the movie I have rewatched more than any other. Plus the best buddy cop movie and one of the best action movies ever made.
Nighthawk Posted July 2, 2008 Author Report Posted July 2, 2008 I'd like to see Lethal Weapon 5: this time Riggs is really crazy.
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted July 2, 2008 Report Posted July 2, 2008 I'm happy the series ended before we got to Lethal Weapon 7 starring Chris Rock and David Spade.
Aero Posted July 2, 2008 Report Posted July 2, 2008 Looks like gWIL missed his pick, so I'll move forward. Back to the Future, Zemeckis, 1985 I won't take the chance of losing this in a later round. Awesome quotes throughout, just a great movie, easily ranking in my top 5. "There's that word again... Heavy. Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there something wrong with the Earth's gravitational pull?" "1.21 GIGAWATTS!" "Who's the President in 1985?" "Ronald Reagan..." "THE ACTOR!?"
godthedog Posted July 2, 2008 Report Posted July 2, 2008 i'd like to think that jay-z watched that movie as a teenager and misheard the wattage as "jiggawhats."
Gert T Posted July 2, 2008 Report Posted July 2, 2008 With my 3rd Round pick, I select: Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy/2004/McKay Maybe not the best comedy of all-time and somewhat over-played recently, but on my island, it would be a must-have.
Zack Malibu Posted July 2, 2008 Report Posted July 2, 2008 For my 3rd pick, I'm going to go with something that I know I could easily take later in the draft, but it's one of my all-time favorites and a definite must-have, so I'm not going to risk it... Sleepaway Camp, 1983 Some of you have heard of it, some of you haven't. When it first came out it got tossed into the mix of "another horror movie at camp=Friday The 13th ripoff", but it's so much more than that. The acting is what you'd expect from an early 80's horror effort, but this movie has the perfect creepy overtones to it throughout the whole movie (from the cast/victims being much younger than usual horror movie fare, not to mention thinks like the cook or the girl counselors infatuation with the old camp owner) that set you up for the big twist at the end. If you've seen it, you've never forgotten it, and if you haven't seen it, I strongly recommned that you do. Excellent movie.
Mecha Mummy Posted July 3, 2008 Report Posted July 3, 2008 One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Man, I'm going with really upbeat movies on my list, aren't I. But yeah, this is another one of my definite all-time favorites, one of the first movies to really grab me as a true contender as being my all-time favorite. Plus I need some Jack Nicholson on my island, how can I not have Jack Nicholson?
Nighthawk Posted July 3, 2008 Author Report Posted July 3, 2008 Brutal, as I love these last four picks, though I wasn't necessarily planning to choose them...
Brett Favre Posted July 3, 2008 Report Posted July 3, 2008 Kiss Kiss Bang Bang One of the more underrated comedies. Downey Jr. and Kilmer are brilliant. Perry: My $2000 ceramic Vektor my mother got me as a special gift. You threw in the lake next to the car. What happens when they drag the lake? You think they'll find my pistol. Jesus. Look up "idiot" in the dictionary. You know what you'll find? Harry: A picture of me? Perry: No! The definition of the word idiot, which you fucking are!
The Amazing Rando Posted July 4, 2008 Report Posted July 4, 2008 3. Instinct / Turteltaub / 1999 I doubt anyone would pick this, but dammit it has to be on my island. Some very powerful scenes throughout and based on one of my favorite novels of all time (Ishmael by Daniel Quinn). "What did I take from you? What have you lost?!" Oh yes.
BlackFlagg Posted July 4, 2008 Report Posted July 4, 2008 Alien One of the best sci-fi movies of all time, period.
Nighthawk Posted July 4, 2008 Author Report Posted July 4, 2008 There Will Be Blood - Anderson, 2007 As called, this is my third choice. When I first saw this movie, it was sort of hovering around the same area as No Country For Old Men as my favorite movie of the year, but with the passage of time this has far surpassed No Country for favorite of the year, and is now well into my favorites of all time. Daniel Plainview is one of the absolute greatest characters/performances I've ever seen. I watch this regularly, and see reflections of myself in it.
