    Inglorious Bastards was already taken. To be fair it doesn't matter what he names it, it's gonna appear on Google... type "Kill Bill" and see what comes up.

    BTW Inglorious Bastards (1978) is terrible. Don't watch it just 'cause you happen to like the Tarrantino film.

    That is a HUGE assumption on your part. How you came to that conclusion, seems a little, (for lack of a better word) stupid.

    Well, I'd say either Pink Panther 2 or 9 (no, not that terrible movie Nine that just came out... 9 and Nine are 2 different things). It seems like many people didn't like Pink Panter 2, but it was one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. And 9, just wow. One of my favorites. Night at the Museam 2 is awesome as well.

    If you don't mind a movie from a year or two ago, check out I Am Legend if you havn't already seen that, although last time I checked it wasn't on iTunes.

    I am legend is trash compared to both the book and it's contemporaries. I know it's vampires, but it's basically a zombie movie, and I've seen many, better ones. Personal favorites are Dawn of the dead 1978 and 2004.

    Yeah, I never got around to seeing any of George Romero's movies (surprisingly) but I do want to. I Am Legend was a pretty cool movie though, but then again I havn't seen many movies, so I might not be the best person to ask. To each his own I guess.

    Strange is definetly a word that could describe it. But it was awesome. And actually, it's not AS strange as it may seem at first, but it's definetly not normal, and that's half the reason it's so cool is that there's nothing else really like it (as far as I can tell).

    It's based off a short film called 9 that you can find on youtube but I don't feel like finding right now. Just search for 9 Short Film or something along the lines of that. It gives a pretty good idea of the type of action in the movie, but the story in the full length film really has a much deeper story from what I saw.

    Well if I saw District 9 I would say that as it seems to be amazing according to, well everyone. But I would then say the Hangover. It is so funny and I could just watch it over and over.

    D9 was ok. It almost got to that point that would have made it a good movie, but it just wasn't strong enough.

    9 is fantastic...Also I may have been a little harsh with I am legend. I just feel that compared to the book it's based on, it falls terribly short, even so far as to omit, the "I am legend" theme that was the driving plot of the book.

    Does it have to be 09? I'd say the original Boondock Saints :D There's a 2nd one that just came out, but I haven't seen it yet.

    Although I see where you're coming from in regards to CG, my post was in no way meant to be taken seriously. "Paul Blart: Mall Cop" was awful on so many levels, and although I personally don't consider Avatar the best movie of '09, it definitely wipes it's ass with a movie like Paul Blart.

    Wild Hogs is another good one.

    And if you can't chuckle at something so stupid like mall cop, too bad for you.

    Wild Hogs was probably the best movie of the decade. Both it, and Paul Blart were absolute comedic masterpieces. If only Blazing Saddles had been more like Wild Hogs...

    The amount of sarcasm in your post is stiffling.
