Older movies that you enjoy?

I like lots of older movies, I consider older movies ones that are before my time. Usualy movies between the 70's- 80's. Some examples of the movies that I frequently watch are, The Warriors, Duel, Taxi Driver, Predator,Maximum Overdrive, Killdozer, Christine, The Shining, Transformers The Movie. Uhhh Nothing really comes to mind. Oh I do watch alot of John Wayne westerns too. I do have a large collection of classic movies on VHS and DVD. But I dont feel like going through them. Those are the movies I watch more than anything. I also watch movies that pre-date the 80's and surpass the 90's. But newer movies dont really intrest me other than Transformers and Transformers Revenge Of The Fallen. Im pretty picky. What about you?

Oh jeez... There would be too many films to list, but here's a few... A Clockwork Orange, Psycho, Strangers on a Train, 12 Angry Men, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Dr. Strangelove, etc.

yeah, the warriors was before its time (plus demontrated the best use of the synthesizer - BEFORE the 80's!), dog day afternoon is fairly good, scarface is a classic...there's alot of old movies dude....

Lawrence of Arabia, The Bridge on the River Kwai, All Quiet on the Western Front, Patton, Seven Samurai, Godzilla (1954) are older movies I highly enjoy

The Thing was always my favorite old movie :DMrLions

I like some of the old black-and-white movies for their dark atmosphere ("The Thing from Outer Space," "Night of the Living Dead" (the original, not Tom Savini's remake) and the original "Psycho") or because they relied more on story/characters than special effects ("Seven Samurai," "The Hidden Fortress"... pretty much any of Kurosawa's samurai movies).

The original king kong and the original godzilla. Along with all those old poorly dubbed martial art films.

Forgot to mention Night of the Living Dead; and The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

I love the movie Clue, and Full Metal Jacket.

20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Sadly, it's been awhile since I've seen it. But I refuse to buy the DVD (unless there's an unedited version I haven't heard of)

Basically every movie that you guys have mentioned are GREAT movies =D. I believe that Full Metal Jacket is one of the most quoted movies of all time. Along Taxi Diver and Dirty Harry. =P
