Quote10.  Signs

9.    The Lady in the Water
Pretty much any Shamalamadingdong movie has it comming

Quote8.    One Hour Photo
I don't kniow, might be a bit too creepy to riff

Quote7.    The Warriors
Warriors come out to ri-iff. I'd like to see that purely for the cover image

Quote6.    Magnolia

5.    Being John Malkovich

Couldn't be bothered to see them, not sure even a riff would encourage me.

Quote4.    Con Air
Best suggestion on the list, I love this utterly stupid and inane movie and it's heavily pregnant with potential riffs

Quote3.    March of the Penguins
Go find the original french version, I think you'll enjoy it

Quote2.    Total Recall
I'd do another Arnie Movie first, how about Kindergarten Cop?

Quote1.    Darkman
I suppose so, not sure I could watch it but sure.

Yeah, this one does need a riffing.  It's a kick-ass movie, but it definitely takes itself too seriously.  Seems like easy pickins, in fact, it should be fan riffed first.

Hey Tripe, although we sometimes disagree on matters of taste (for example, I love Quentin Tarantino), I respect your sense of discrimination in same. I thought the above were two of the best movies of 1999; maybe you should consider giving them a try.

I never got around to seeing Magnolia (I worked at a video store at the time and never heard a single good review from the customers) but I'll throw in behind gbeenie here that Being John Malkovich was an excellent movie.  Extremely odd, but a lot of fun.

I loved "Being John Malkovich".  Magnolia wasn't bad either.

How much of this was musical?  I know that was the main (and pretty much only) selling point of the movie, but is it like a Beatles opera, or was there spoken dialog too?  It'd be interesting to hear a riff on something this song-heavy, but would there be a point where it's just too much?
