Urg - look at BladeRunner everywhere. Man, I HATED that movie. It was one of the few movies I've actually turned off because I was so bored.
2001 made me nauseous, so I didn't finish that one either.

I have to admit that I've watched Aliens a ton of times; I quite liked it.

Excellent choices. The lazy git in me finds much agreement with all of these. But that's me being lazy and not coming up with others that I like.

I'm getting married to a film student. I would hope they're decent!

Really, I just love anything Kubrick did save Eyes Wide Shut, and I would have probably liked that had it been his own cut not the studio's -- in fact, I would recommend watching the UK cut as it was done by his daughter.

Edit: my fiancé certified that as a pretentious comment.

I loved Eyes Wide Shut; I saw it with 8 people, and 6 of them were rolling their chairs with boredom. I was enraptured. A lot of the movie was spent watching Tommy-boy thinking, and for those who weren't in the 'mood' for the movie were just bored. I absolutely got into his mind-set though, and was thinking right along with the character.

I don't think I could watch it again, though, I think you needed to be in a certain mood to see it.

Count me in as another 'Eyes Wide Shut' fan.
