Don't think about it! Don't reconsider! Just spontaneously!

I say:
Dark City
The Royal Tenenbaums
The Hudsucker Proxy
Hopscotch
Pump up the Volume

The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzaii Across the Eighth Dimension
Moulon Rouge
Bladerunner (Cult favorite, box-office bomb yet frequently imitated)
Hudson Hawk
Harold and Maude

Oh, yeah! Even though I suspect that the German dubbing made it even funnier than it really was....

Once Upon a Time in China:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103285/

Underrated in the US, at least.

Also, The Sweet Hereafter:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120255/

Do I have to come up with FIVE??? Now, I might come up with more later, but these are the ones (in no particular order) that come to mind right away.

Paper House (http://movies2.nytimes.com/gst/movies/m ... v_id=37209)
The Changeling (http://efilmcritic.com/review.php?movie ... viewer=301)
The Dark Crystal (http://www.fast-rewind.com/darkcrystal.htm)
Immortal Beloved (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110116/)
Secondhand Lions (http://www.secondhandlions.com/)

The kentucky fried movie (stupid funny)
Big definately on Hudsucker Proxy (did it go straight to video or what, it's great)
Boondock Saints
Joe Dirt


That all I can do right now, counting to five was always my achilles

Office Space (uh...yeah...)
The Dish (unsung drama about a moment in world history)
Fall (If they made a "Last Tango in Paris" in New York City, this is it)
Harold and Maude (Bandit12 won't like it - it's about an EMO)
The Hudsucker Proxy (Don't watch it, and they DOCK ya!)

Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion
Office Space
Full Metal Jacket
Fast Times at Rifgemont High
That last sex tape I tore apart and burned....

Italian Job (original)

Labrynthe

can't think of anymore titles off the top of my head...

Smoke Signals (anyone seen it?)
Army of Darkness
Four Weddings and a Funeral
The Big Lebowski
Trainspotting

By the way....Joe Dirt was GREAT. I agree. Stoopid great, but great nonetheless.

Taxi
Faster
Boondock Saints
Search for the Holy Grail
um, um, times up, crap, um, um, um........

Hey Schotzy,
For the life of me I could not remember the title "Office Space" thanks for noticing one of the all time sleeper film. That's my first pick it was funny as hell. If I ever have to return to a cubicle that film would be a guide for existance.

The Pirate Movie
Muppets remake of The Frog Prince
The Last Unicorn
Labrinth
Heathers

Here are a few cusack movies i think should be in there :

One Crazy Summer
Better Off Dead
and
Gross Point Blank

After "Eek the Cat!" in the early 1990's he's been directing a lot of television (Sabrina, VIP, Even Stevens, among others).
He's currently credited with the script for "Porky's 4." Kind of makes you wish you didn't know, doesn't it?

1. Mallrats - while not a cinematic great, it still makes me laugh and it REALY got crapped on by the critics...

2. Boondock Saints - had they put afleck and Damon in the leads and released it through miramax... who knows.

3. The man who sued god. - Australian production... very good but never hear about it.

4. The wog boy - Big in australia... damn americans didnt get it.

5. Varsity blues - Usualy dismissed as a excuse to put paul walker, scott caan and james van der beek in the one movie, but its actualy pretty good.

Deaconblooz: I've seen Smoke Signals and LOVE it!!! Adam Beach is one of my fave actors.
Midlife: I LOVED Office Space. "This one's fo' da homies".... ROFLMAO
