We don't have set rules for the show, but one thing we try to do is remain cognizant when we're taking on a franchise, and do the franchise rather than just isolated movies.* We don't want to have too many franchises-in-progress at one time.

That being said, we do intend to eventually take on Indy, Back to the Future, and probably Pirates, down the line.

If it's a franchise, assume it's on our radar. Help us think of less obvious movies!

*Star Trek being so far the exception, and I don't want to think about the future of commenting on that franchise until I at least get the blood out of my clothes from this last time.

Real Genius is a favorite of mine, as is Big Trouble

I know Ive mentioned it, but Dorkman and I want to do a Crouching Tiger/Karate Kid double feature next time I sit in for someone other than Dorkman (its sad that the anniversary show was the first time I had DiF'd with Mr. Scott).

I was doing a thing.

"Forget it, Mayhew, it's..." Ah forget it.

Just registered, so "hi"

1) Silence of the Lambs - It's a thriller classic and pretty much set the standard of what a psychological thriller / serial killer film should aspire to. Kinda surprised no one's suggested it yet.
2) Jackie Brown - Probably Tarantino's least well known film. Pretty dissimilar to his other stuff.
3) Where The Wild Things Are - There seems to be two camps on this: you either love it to death or think it's pointless, dull crap.
4) Mel Brooks films would probably make for awesome commentary material. Blazing Saddles, Young Frankenstein, or Space Balls.

If you want to get into some of the more obscure stuff you should consider some of the Takeshi Kitano films. Hana-Bi or Sonotine. One of the greatest directors currently walking the earth.

That's "Fronkunschteen."

Sigh. This is the part where I'm forced to admit publicly that ive never seen that one.

Hated it.

As your making you way through the Alien franchise, will you have a chance to do the Predator movies as well, eventually?

Though you can skip the comic if you watch the webisodes.

Link?
