So what movies good or bad left a lasting impact on you?

hmmmmm i think maybe beauiful mind and the last samuri

Poupées Russes (Russian Dolls).

There's this amazing scene where the main character alludes to the significance of the title.

I don't remember the exact words. He says that the people you desire or sleep with are like Russian Dolls. You have to go through them all before you find the one you're meant to be with forever. While you're dating, you never know which person is going to be the last one, the innermost Russian Doll. The one at the end. It's charming, really, and the scene put this weird emotion in me. It was so well voiced, and it's so real. I love it.

has to be American Beauty... , that film just kicks arse impact wise

hmm.....wow good question titanic was a sad ass movie as long as i can remember

Brokedown Palace, The Safety of Objects, Kingdom of Heaven

Requeim for a Dream.

The Life Aquatic, I don't know why though...
The end when Steve sees that big bastard swimming at them and get's all weepy saying "I wonder if it remembers me" like I said I dunno why...

Babe and Fat Pizza

Left Behind because it made me understand the rapture more and it made me think.

Sarafina!.
What's Love Got To Do With It.
Evita.

Fight Club.

That movie was stuck in my head for a long time.

Super size me!!! i never ate mikkys again

What left an impact, Oh God, The Last Samuri for sure, and Titanic, and what was the other one...Oh yeah, Steel Magnolias *chick flick* it was sooo sad.

Oh and Erin Brokovich!! It showed that 2 people could taken down a 28 billion dollar corporation (it was based on a true story)

Fight Club, Snatch, Lock Stock ohh yea and American Beauty and Super Size Me.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

american beauty

Goldfinger

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

I'll second that.

Honourable mention:

Crash (the more recent)

Remember The titans

The Matrix.. when i saw that, it blew my mind

Lots of movies...very recently, Danton...I love historical movies and it was just so interesting to see how two people so essentially alike in ideals can manipulate those ideals and ideas to turn against each other, and how decisions are not just fueled by political ambition but also by conflicting personalities.
