Invictus, the rugby movie with Morgan Freeman.
He really was an awesome Nelson Mandela. A great light, fun feel-good movie -- well, at least for sports fans. Interesting that Eastwood directed that one.

I have an off-topic but VT antidote about that movie
My wife and I sent our two boys (middle-school aged then) to VT hoops camp back when Seth was coached. Pretty cool in that they got to stay on the same floor of Lee Hall that I was in as a Freshman . My wife and I used the 2 or 3 days to chill out in the NRV. So driving back to Maryland we wanted to know what they were doing in the evenings. This was the relatively early days of digital download/streaming of movies but of course the kids were already running circles around us. "So what did you watch kids?" Younger one blurts out "Hot Tub Time Machine". Of course the wife and I are wow, we are like really awful parents :-)

Zombie Nightmare. But avoid "Bridges of Madison County". Just disturbing.

The Man Who Would Be King.

Something about Mary or Naked gun….
Borat movie for total randomness….maybe just some comedy stand up…Brian Regan is one of my favorites. Then the ultimate classics like Caddy, Animal house, vacation…etc…. Hope you find something

"American Graffiti", "Nightshift", and the "Italian Job" Shun inside...

Maybe I’m too young, but I don’t get the love for American Graffiti.
It seemed like a mix of a weak Happy Days episode and a boring coming-of-age story. What am I missing? For context, I’m 49 and saw it for the first time about 3 weeks ago.

I'm old but it reminds me of my days cruising with
my muscle car on Williams Road in Roanoke, Va looking for girls.

I’m 60 and its always been just a fun movie to watch the younger versions
of some later famous actors. It was also the precursor to later coming of age flicks…Have you seen Diner? Another fun movie, for us seniors, lol!

Terrific movie. Especially the Baltimore Colt quiz for the future bride.

I think it might be a tie between the quiz and the popcorn scene in the
moviehouse (with now unrecognizable) Mickey Rourke, and Colette Blonigan? I wonder how many teenage guys tried that after seeing the movie, lol?! ** Edited by PWR2LZ at 8/8/2023, 7:24:45 PM ** Edited by PWR2LZ at 8/8/2023, 7:30:38 PM ** Edited by PWR2LZ at 8/8/2023, 7:47:14 PM

I haven’t, but I checked IMDB and what a cast! I was 7 when it came out
so it wasn’t even on my radar then. I was watching Rocky III , Poltergeist, and ET.

Watch Diner and then watch Mickey Rourke in the "Wrestler", you'll hardly
recognize him. BTW: Marisa Tomei looks great too! ** Edited by PWR2LZ at 8/8/2023, 7:46:38 PM
