I actually thought that Arsenic and Old Lace was funnier than His Girl Friday.

Yeah, I've been hitting the pipe pretty hard in the past few weeks. ;)

Still, I don't trust a list that ranks the Star Wars and Lord of the Rings movies above Citizen Kane and Sunset Blvd.

You've been grumpy enough for me to suspect barbiturates ;)

But yeah the films on that list are from IMDB which is always a little suspect.

So come on give us ten suggestions, and Jacob will watch them, assuming he watches any of our suggestions :)

Has Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song been suggested yet?

No and in fact I laid off the blaxsploitation is the assumption that you or somebody else would provide some titles :)

Sweet Sweetback is not actually blaxploitation, though, considering that the director actually is black. I'd also recommend The Story of a Three-Day Pass, Don't Play Us Cheap and Watermelon Man from Brer Soul. As far as "blaxploitation" goes, hit up Ralph Bakshi's Coonskin (Streetfight) for some satire on the genre, and Coffy and Foxy Brown for actual blaxploitation. :)

Yes, fair point I was generalising, you get the idea though.

And I think you can add three more films to the list. :)

Just for clarity and list making purposes:

Also, Jacob needs to get a bottle of Faygo and a copy of Miles Davis' On the Corner. ;D

Detroit thanks you for your continued use of its product.  :speechless:

The album is very good though.

I agree with Courtney, WATCH AND LOVE
