sleeper hits no one saw

[Duck]

Frequency... What a great flick.

City of God

Fastest Indian

Green Street Hooligans

Radio Flyer

Two AMAZING films right there. City of God blew me away when I watched it.

Oh yes. That had me squirming. Ellen Page is a scary mother ****er.

Yeah she is


Another film I know a lot of people have not seen and I loved was Mysterious Skin. JGL was so ****ing good in this movie. It's not easy to watch, but it is a damn good film.

Your a hypocrite. This thread is titled sleepers, sorry I missed the one thread or post that brought this movie up

Why are you acting like I lashed out on you. I just said you should've been here when Scott died. And you'd get your wish of people praising it. Nothing more/

My bad I am so used to you disagreeing with my post or being sarcastic that I miss interpreted it's meaning. I assure you nothing is wrong with me and I am not even upset. Sorry if I came off that way. Was minding my own business trying to add to the thread and I thought yow were calling me out. If u re-read it you could see why I came to that conclusion. Also look at the QT thread u obviously disagreed with my list lol

Not sure if this qualifies as a sleeper for people in their 30s but True Romance is a fantastic film that rarely gets talked about in this forum. I definitely recommend everyone who likes mob/QT movies (he wrote the script) to watch it if they haven't seen it

did you know true romance has two different endings? the unrated version has a much more violent scene with james gandolfini and patricia arquette. it also has patricia arquette shooting and killing officer dimes (chris penn) instead of the hitman luca. check it out...it's a better edit if you ask me.

True Romance is a Tony Scott film. Even QT would tell you that. The original script was quite different and even linked to a sequel that later became Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers. QT sold the True Romance screenplay and used the money to make Reservoir Dogs. The script was the genesis, but Scott reworked it and made it what it was.

I own it. I love movie maybe more then I should. Funny thing is I am not a fan of christian slater, but still love this freak in movie. The soundtrack is total QT too. Do you know that brad Pitt was once quoted as saying that it is his favorite role he ever played and a character he related to most in his real life.


I know he likes to hit the bong but didn't know he did that much.

I'll go with Dredd also to get this back on track from the trainwreck...


I'll add in Fight Club, cannot believe how undersold this movie was when it was released.

Why is it absolute like that? QT wrote and did all that you acknowledge he did but yet you say its a Tony Scott Film. Tony scott directed it and gets credit but its just as much QT creation then scotts. In fact had QT not written it, the movie would never have existed. QT was a nobody and Tony Scott had the name that would sell films.

Sleeper hits are movies that don't have high expectations but achieve some level of success, right? Not good movies no one has hardly heard of or seen.

 

[CelticPredator]

That's correct.

District 9 is a sleeper hit.

I would guess if hardly no one has seen or heard of it yet, its still just sleeping and hasn't gotten to the hit part.

And wasn't Star Wars like the sleeper hit of like ever? It was supposed to be a back up film or something like that?

according to merriam-webster: 'someone or something unpromising or unnoticed that suddenly attains prominence or value'. doesn't have to have worldwide box office success...just recognized and written about in this thread.

Lol can you imagine their bong display. She needs to smoke more weed though and get some serious munchies before she wilts away from malnutrition.

Worst movie ever!!!!!!!!!!!! First one was decent, makes you feel sick watching it though. Part of me kept thinking why am I watching this, and the other half said keep watching. Don't put that movie on when u have guest over, they will think something is wrong with you. Unless they are annoying neighbors u want to get rid of.


Two movies you never put on for guests or people you don't know to well: human centipede and I spit on your grave

I'll add let me in to the list. Such an amazing movie.
