[Matt Hall]

Ok, so far we have 72 89 movies. At an average of 2 hours each, we will all be spending 144[/s] 178 hours (or 6 straight days[/color] 7 days, 10 hours, non-stop) watching movies this fall, ASSUMING no one else posted in this list.

And thats not counting the pornos...

EDIT: Corrected numbers, wasn't sure how many View Askew films there were... Thanks Jay.
EDIT 2: corrected after John... I have no life.

Beverly Hills Cop I II III
Stargate
Alive
Friday
Boys in the Hood

[Mr Belvedere]

Okay, so now I have another question. While of these are good movies (and hi5 to Jay for pointing out Casino, thats a real GANGSTA movie), are we just putting uor favorite movies? Or are we supposed to be putting movies that are actually related to ideals to bettering men and/or furthuring the ideals of our fraternity? I'm not dogging any of these movies, b/c most of them are pretty good. I'm just curious.
But if we're just adding our favorites, let me add to this lovely list:
Friday 1, 2, + 3
Soul Food
How High
Martin You So Crazy (stand up comedy)
Jamie Foxx- stand up comedy
Blade 1+2
Hackers (and any other Angelina Jolie movie ever made)
The Brothers
Crooklyn
School Daze
Do Tha Right Thing
The Lion King (arguably the best movie soundtrack ever lol)
Okay thats it...for now! HOLLA!
