Looking for newer "old" movies for the cabin fever season

[mikehaugen]

Also try

Reservoir Dogs - 1992

Four Rooms - 1995

Tarintino movies so you may or may not dig it.

gotta love tarantino movies!

My mom recently lent me a collection of movies "Billy Jack" and I have watched a few. Some corny scenes, but overall pretty good plot.

For comedies I like the "Lethal Weapon" series. I like most Tom Hanks movies as well, but the first one that comes to mind is "Money Pit"

Maybe it's because I have kids, and I was a kid not that long ago, but I enjoy just about every Disney Pixar movie.

Haven't seen it for a long time, but I remember really liking "Dances With Wolves," and if you like Kevin Costner, "Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves"

Any James Bond movie is good. (or any Sean Connery movie for that matter)

"The Bourne Identity" movies are good action movies, and not as over-the-top as some of the newer ones.

"Taken" part I and II are both excellent action movies, IMHO the best ones made recently.

And of course who doesn't like Star Wars?

Any Hitchcock movie. Any Bogart movie.

Almost an Tommy Lee Jones movie. Almost any Cohen bros. movie. Here s a good example of Cohen bros. and Jones:No Country for Old Men (2007) - IMDb
Made in 2007 but it's a good one.

excellent movie...
...I love the line by Woody Harrelson's character... when asked how dangerous the bad guy is and he replies..."...compared to what?...the bubonic plague?..."

It's probably one of the best Tommy Lee Jones movies I know of and I like Tommy Lee Jones. The whole cast was great in that movie.

This is another really good Tommy Lee Jones movie: The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (2005) - IMDb

.

Agree on the "Billy Jack" movies. And "Born Losers".

Thought this was a good cartoon movie for kids, young and old:Ratatouille (2007) - IMDb

Did you ever see any of the James Coburn movies from the 60's like Our Man Flint (1966) - IMDb
Also had "In like Flint" in 1966. they were kind of drama/comedy/action rolled into one with a lot of buxom girls in bikinis that the 60's was famous for.

Just subscribe to TCM - Turner Classic Movies. If you have FOXNews, NASCAR and TCM - you can pretty much drop everything else.

Everyone needs to see this at least once

Man's Favorite Sport (1964)

I like City Heat, with Burt Reynolds and Clint Eastwood. It's a comedy. Cheesy, at times, but I truly laughed out loud. Night Shift was another fun one. I think it had Henry Winkler in it. So, I don't have suggestions for "new" movies, but good anyway.

"Taking Chance"

Want a classic "Random Harvest"
