    One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest is a great movie, so you could probably torrent buy it somewhere online. I actually think they play it frequently on AMC; which has a plethora amount of good movies played daily.

    Also, this movie is so great. Rube, from Dead Like Me, plays the part of the Spaniard after revenge for his father's death. :P

    Some of my fav classic movies have been

    Clash of the Titans.. You had to love the effects... Inspiring at that time.. Ridiculous now.. Still it was a good movie

    Breakfast at Tiffany's... "How do I look!!" What a line!

    Planet of the Apes.... The best scene is the ending.. Dammmmmmmmmmn You ALLLLL TO HELL!!!

    Earthquake... The effects were also awe inspiring at the time

    The Poseidon Adventure... no overly a great movie but you gotta love the effects as well.

    Street Car named Desire... Need I say more


    Gone with the Wind... It was such a long movie... I nearly fell asleep...But it was the costumes that really dug about it

    Gentlemen's Prefer Blondes

    Gone with the Wind is good. Clark Gable is a pimp.
    The Warriors is hella rad.

    I can't think of anything else.

    Supporting these movies:
    Casablanca
    The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
    Citizen Kane
    Taxi Driver
    Rocky (They're all mostly good)
    Full Metal Jacket
    The Princess Bride
    Scarface
    A Clockwork Orange

    I've seen The Princess Bride, Sleepy Hollow (does that count? the Johnny Depp version), Rocky, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Interview With the Vampire (also unsure if this fits), History of the World Part 1 (I think that's the right one...it was the one about the Spanish Inquisition), something something Thunderdome (Mel Gibson was in it, I watched it with my dad), Romeo and Juliet...I know there's more, I just can't think of them right now.

    Anyway, I need to watch Princess of the Bride again, because that movie just plain rocks. I totally want to own it on DVD too.

    The Planet of the Apes ending is much funnier when it's a non sequitur, like in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.

    I watched <a href=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0047478/>Seven Samurai</a> one night around 2 AM on AMC and I couldn't bring myself to shut it off. I like <a href=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094226/>The Untouchables</a> a lot too. We watched that in American History in high school.

    <a href=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0137523/>Fight Club</a> and <a href=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110912/>Pulp Fiction</a> are two movies I'll sometimes watch for the millionth time too.

    And yeah, just go <a href=http://www.imdb.com/chart/top>here</a>, pick something at random, and watch it.
