NGC Recommendations for Great Guy movies
boatdetective:
OK, so I'm trying to pull together an excuse for "guys night out" for my married buddies. My idea is "the Testosterone Film Festival". It will rotate from one man cave to the next, and the host can choose, but the requirement is that it must be an iconic guy movie. Doesn't mean it has to be mindless explosions. Basically, if you had a 13 year old son and wanted to set some role models, you could give him a list and he'd pretty much get it. The following are obvious examples. Just for fun- what would you all select? I'm running a bit dry finding modern actors/movies that fit the bill- so help me there.
The Magnificent Seven Yul Brynner, McQueen, Bronson, James Coburn, Eli Wallach -Faggedaboutit!
The Great Escape extra points if you can whistle the theme song
Bridge on the River Kwai ...speaking of whistling
Cool Hand Luke the egg eating scene is unforgetable
Scarface "I only got two things- my word and my balls. ..and I don't break 'em for nobody"
Animal House "Seven years of college down the drain"
Goodfellas "You're saying I'm funny? Funny like a clowwn?"
Alien controversial, but Sigourney Weaver is pretty damn tough
Strangelove "There'll be no fighting in the War Room!"
Road Warrior "Ya wanna get outta here? Ya talk to me"
Green1000S:
Scarface
Borat
Saving private Ryan
Gran Torino
Oh... And Borat is offensive unless you like retarded old English humor. Just warning...
