The Godfather is a good movie because it's not mindless, like most of the "gangster" films that it inspired. I don't think it's about what you think it's about.

I liked the films. I thought it was interesting because the more they tried to protect their family, the further they got dragged into violence and revenge they had helped initiate. Especially in the third part.

It was a long series though, and the second one I really can't remember much. I think it's mostly a flashback.

Yeah, same here. Can't really remember all the details, but I have vague impressions.

Only part I remember is them stealing a carpet. I think it's mostly origins and their justifications for why the family was formed.

The Kid by Charlie Chaplin. Dammit, the kid's acting. Outstanding. And The Tramp.

Okay, I recently saw two particular films that were much better than I had anticipated.

• El Topo, wherein crazy things and symbolism happen in the desert. Pretty interesting imagery and concepts, and it was also really fun to watch.
• Apocalypse Now, which I had heard was boring (and Heart of Darkness, which is what it's based on, really was kind of a boring book, though I suspect I'd like it better on the second read), but turned out to be one of the better road trip movies I have seen. Pretty atmospheric, and it's got the Vietnam War in it.

I love Apocalypse Now, but try to avoid the extended edition. All it adds is a really drawn out bit involving a French colonial house that basically detracts from the plot because it's so long.

I can't recommend Ravenous enough. That one's on Netflix. It's terribly intriguing and it had me guessing the whole way through.

Was that the one with cannibals during the Civil War?

[Parsely]

Yes!

The cranked series of movies is just nuts like someone decided to turn PCP into a movie

Seconded.  Loved that movie.

If you're into action movies I would suggest Troll Hunter. It's a movie set in Norway about some university students who end up finding a government agent who hunts trolls for a living. It's available on Netflix last I checked. Although if you can't stand subtitles I wouldn't bother

I would recommend this one as well. Isn't nearly as B-movie as it sounds.

Meh, it was alright. Not brilliant though.
