I'll go along with either Fight Club or Pulp Fiction. But before Fight Club was... The Usual Suspects!
Genius film.

It stars Sean Connery and Nicholas Cage. It's set in the world's most secure prison. It has a gas that melts your skin off.

THE ROCK. :(

It's just so brilliant on so many levels.

Robocop.

Nicely dark and gritty. Gives a scary glimpse into the near future, where corporations take a blatant role in the operation of a country.

The Usual Suspects.

The film that defined the word 'twist', and don't pretend you knew! That bit at the end,

, with the music building up and building up....awesome.

Wedding Crashers

or

Equilibrium

or

Boondock Saints


I pretty much just lump all three of those movies as one under the title of awesome any way.

@ Khellendros - I think you should put your Usual Suspects answer in spoiler tags because some people may not have seen the movie.

Good choice though.

Usual Suspects I could agree with... but Zoolander? You chose Zoolander over Usual Suspects?!

My god man, it has ben stiller in it.

Ben Stiller can be funny - as will be evidenced in the upcoming Tropic Thunder I suspect ;)

I just think Zoolander is the king of silly comedy films, every line's a classic zinger! Don't get mad just because you're not, like, ridiculously good-looking like De-rock Zoolander :)

Wedding Crashers, Ace Ventura, Austin Powers 1 and 2, etc. they are great comedies. Ben Stillers movies are some times good but often poo.

I was positively surprised by Night at the Museum though.

Wedding Crashers has a bloody rape scene in it. How is that funny? Because it's a guy that's funny? Oh, it's alright, because they get together afterwards. Same thing I didn't get with 40 days and 40 nights. She has sex with the guy, against his will - surely that is rape....sorry, getting off the thread a little bit here, but I just never got why that was meant to be funny.

Are you serious?

Apt>> Vince Vaughn. But it isn't really rape. If she was shoving a dildo up his arse against his will it would be rape.

Also, The Godfather damnit!!

Trying not to get all serious here but....try telling a girl that she hasn't been raped because a good-looking guy did it. I'm just saying, there really shouldn't be this distinction made in films, that the rape of a woman is wrong but that the rape of a man is funny.
I do like parts of Wedding Crashers, but the way that scene was played just left me shaking my head in disbelief.
