Princess Mononoke is a very good movie.

Princess Bride is a classic though

Excalibur is like $9.99 at Best Buy.

There's also Highlander, Evil Dead Trilogy, Shrek, X-Men..

And um I think that's all the mass-market movies I've got that haven't been previously mentioned.

OMG OMG OMG OMG SPOILER OMG SPLURT SPLURT OMG

Fight club DVD is awesome to go through frame by frame in key points and see Tyler before he meets tyler (When he's making copies in the office. There's a flash. Thats him.) and a movie sized penis at the end.

Plus it takes a few good views, even after you know what happened, to really get the movie.
Watch it sometime, remembering that Tyler and whats his face are the SAME guy. Things that seemed weird the first time around (As in people's reactions to him) start to make sense.

Like the time he came back home to celebrate with the guys about the job they pulled making that giant smiley face.. He walks in with a pouch that he absentmindedly puts on the table.. the plans for the very thing he asks about not two minutes later..

Edit: Happy, Mr. Spoilerman?

heathers if you can get the tin.
Silently, the unnamed Senshi drew a small jewel-hilted athame from some form of pocket-space, and lightly ran it across the back of her left hand. Good, she wasn't one of those fools that slashed their palm open whenever one of the various reasons to use blood arose. I did the same with my own vorpal-bladed athame. It was a much plainer affair than my counterpart's, but I bet hers couldn't call up a higher-level demon just by carving a smiley face in the ground.

But you seem to like the new anime's...I suggest Gun Ro...or something like that..Gen Ro? Jin Roh? Something with the 'roh' sound at the end.

ALL Kevin Smith movies, INCLUDING Chasing Amy. You do NOT break up the Jersey Trilogy, Fuckchop.

MUST get Hudson Hawk, theres no bonus stuff, but its hard to find on tape. most people thought the movie sucked. They tend to hide the VHS in the "Get it the fuck out of the store, and we'll pay YOU" bin. But its a GOOD movie. Dammit.

Skip ALL that Anime crap. There is no point to it.

MUST get Princess Bride. Also must get M.A.S.H. It has a bonus thingy, and a second disc of bonus shit, and its a fucking classic.
