I recently decide to subscribe to NetFlix because I don't like to go to the movies anymore; too much @#$%& commercials prior to the film and the sound is generally unneccessary loud. I don't mind loud music at a rock and roll show though...
I am curious what are your favorites movies. I want to make a list to use when I decide to place an order to Netflix. I know there are lists of best movies but lot of you Stonesfans here have great tastes and insights.So gimme your list! Thank you
Rock and roll,
Mops

Are you interested in recent releases or blasts from the past ?

My informal list - subject to change is:

Jaws (#1 definitely)
Good Fellas
Braveheart
Team America
Young Frankenstein
Pride & Prejudice (Colin Firth version)
American Dreamer (total chick flick, but I'm allowed!)
Boondock Saints
Tommy Boy - makes me laugh every single time
that's all i can think of right now.

It doesn't matter old or new as long as there are very good movies to you.

Mops

Thank you CindyC. Goodfellas is a great, great one.
Rock and Roll,
Mops

Is this about movies that feature Stones songs?

I eagerly await your response of how difficult it would be for me to sound smart.

not to spoil the plot - but i guarantee you it's the best movie about a guy getting baked in an oven and served for dinner that you'll ever see

Basic Instinct - Bad Boy Bubby - Up in Smoke - Trains,Planes and Automobiles - Blues Brothers - Delirious( Eddie Murphy) - Easy Rider - Mad max 1 & 2.
