Or if you are in a serious mood - American History X is a good film

my Blockbuster has Repulsion on DVD


anyway: Three O'clock high (1987). brilliant comedy. a decade ahead of its time.

edited anything sucks - that's why I hate blockbuster. That and their unwillingness to rent anything not suitable for a 14 year old.

Dead Alive edited sucks, or Dead Alive sucks - ? Perdita is so foxy.

that's the 2nd film by James Cameron, not the first one. Best film in the series and Cameron's best flick period.

If by old you mean from the mid 20th century go with:
Easy Rider
La dolce vita (its italian/black & white but very cool)

Otherwise:
Reality bites - it reeks of MTV , infact its really crap, but I love it.

there's a great Jeff Bridges movie from 1981 called CUTTER'S WAY about a disabled, alcoholic Vietnam vet who gets his friend to find out if an oil tycoon is a murderer. You'll probably have no trouble finding it at a typical Blockbuster.

is the black collarbone before or after Lion King and Aladdin Emperor's New Groove? if its after, then you may be right, but if it is before, than your assesment is wrong. Emperors New Groove is quite amazing.

CAULDRON, and it was released in 1985, before the decent Aladdin and plagiarizing LION KING. I've never seen EMPEROR'S NEW GROOVE, and I don't particularly want to.http://www.animated-movies.net/TheBlackCauldron14.jpg

It's not plagiarizing if i like it, and The Emperors New Groove is hilarious. The guy who plays Elaine's boyfriend on SEINFELD is in it, and he is a fantastic character.

I'm actually liking the Hitchcock idea. I recommend "Rebecca" though- I recently saw an awesome stage version of it.
