Non-Football open thread. Movies! (Action)

I know, I know, I was going to do this yesterday, but real life took precedent. (Sorry, WVPiratesFan)


(Jumpy jumpy)

Okay, Last week I had a pretty good turnout for the Comedy version. A couple of people drifted into different genre's, but that's fine. All that means is they get to redo their lists for when that genre is targeted.

 

This week, I'm doing Action films. There is a spot of contention as to the definition of "action". For example: "Pineapple Express" is an Action movie. However, it could be put under the category of "Action/Comedy". I'm not going to put that close of a tag on what constitutes "Pure Action" movies. If it's "Action", then, it's "Action".

 

I'm going to be doing it a bit differently this go round, by putting my top 15 here. (in no particular order)

 

#1: Sin City "Is that all you got, you pansies?"

#2: The Devils Rejects "Tutti-F__kin-Fruity!"

#3: From Dusk 'Till Dawn "You got food here, Jose?" "Best in Mexico." "I doubt that."

#4: Kung Fu Hustle "Wow! That's a big fist."

#5: Pineapple Express "I seent it!"

#6: The Rundown "You look like a little birdie up there! Ca-Caw Ca-CAW!"

#7: Hancock "I will fight crime butt-ass naked, before I'll fight it in that" "You have done that. That's on YouTube..."

#8: The Boondock Saints "And shepherds we shall be, for thee, my lord, for thee."

#9: Snatch "Why is there a dead man in your boot, with a tea cozy on his head?"

#10: Planet Terror "Useless talent #43."

#11: Nightwatch & Daywatch "Don't cross into the Gloom."

#12: 300 "And one more thing...I want a uniform."

#13: Terminator 1, 2 and 3. "Come with me, if you want to live"

#14: Pulp Fiction "Hey! Check out the big brain on Brad!"

#15: Deathproof "Which way you goin', left or right?" "Right" "Aw, that's too bad."

 

Add your list, and criticism/kudos to my list below. I had to leave some of my favorites out, but I did say "Top 15"...

 

Have fun, people!
