HELP WANTED! What Should I Watch Next On This List?

Hello there! I record a lot of movies from the dish and always have a backlog of 70+ of them at my disposal, but actually choosing one on movie night often turns into a paralytic chore. So why not seek the advice of this knowledgable community to help out? I invite you to post a comment telling me what I should see, maybe one of your favorites or a cult classic I shouldn't miss, or perhaps one you want me to review or for completely no reason at all! You make the call, I constantly update this list and would appreciate anyone's help, no matter which way my thumb points :-)

    "District 13 - Ultimatum" for pure mindless action.
    Todd Solandz' "Happiness" for demented comedy.
    "The Secret of the Grain" for solid drama.
    "Fear(s) of the Dark" for cool animation.

    Of the ones you have here on your list already, see Stalag 17!

    I think you owe it to yourself to see LA DOLCE VITA---not guaranteeing it's the most fun movie on the list or even that you'll like it, but you'll be better for having seen it.

    I've seen Polanski's Cul-de-sac recently. I'm curious to know of your impressions of it.

    go see The Reader-nothing much else grabs me on this list but The Reader was good.

    Hey there,
    Check out Woody Allen's 'Radio Days' - you can see my reasons why from my Flixster review. :)

    For some truly stunning visual storytelling, Wong Kar Wei's 'In the Mood for Love' is a must see. It's minimal and heart-wrenchingly beautiful.
