List Rules
Vote up all your favorite films that it seems like the rest of the world forgot.
The same movies seem to pop up over and over again on lists of "the best" films, and perhaps overlap with your own favorites. What about those other movies you watched growing up, but probably wouldn't find on any Top 10 (or even Top 100) list - the ones everyone except you forgot about? Maybe as a kid you had a few VHS tapes you watched over and over, or you watched a movie multiple times on a cable channel during a a particularly impressionable weekend.
When you tell people these films are your favorites, perhaps they give you puzzled looks. But surely you aren't the only one who considers them classics.
I showed my kids that movie ([they were] 12 and 15 at the time), and that scene when the cook farts during silent operation, my daughter legitimately pissed herself laughing and my son was in pain from laughing so hard.
A Fish Called Wanda. I don't know anyone irl, under the age of 40, that knows this movie! It's one of the funniest movies ever. My favorite Kevin Kline movie, hand[s] down!
Let me just correct a few things, okay? Aristotle was not Belgian, the principle of Buddhism is not "every man for himself," and the London Underground is not a political movement.
It's a cute little '80s movie about some alien robots who took up residence in this old apartment complex, and when the residents are threatened with eviction so the place could be torn down, the robots help the tenants, and the tenants help the robot aliens. Anyway, I enjoyed it.
