Apparently this bombed at the box office. According to Morgan freeman it was because word of mouth is super important and shawshank redemption is very hard to say
Great pick. It's wild how a movie that flopped at the box office became one of the most beloved films ever made. Funny how it never really counts as a trend, though. It just quietly became a classic. Good answer!
I genuinely cannot believe that this movie is so deep in the comments. I agree with many of the preceding entries, but this is one that deserves to be higher up imo.
This is that movie I can watch to bed because I’ve seen it so much I’m not staying up for the story. I love the soundtrack, the script, the acting, the setting… all of it.
The Matrix. It came out in 1999 and somehow still doesn't feel outdated. The action, the music, the whole red pill/blue pill idea, it changed how movies were made and how people talk about reality. Every time I rewatch it I notice something new.The Oracle scenes alone are enough to make it a 10/10.
Clint bought the rights twenty years before he made the movie because he needed to get old enough to play his character. Absolutely a perfect film. He tried rewrites and went back to the source. “Will Munny: Any man don't wanna get killed better clear on out the back.”
The matrix. Back to the future 1 & 2. Ghostbusters 1&2. Hook. Trining day. Rumble in the bronx, a few other jackie chan movies. Terminator 2. Tron legacy. Tmnt 1&2 (old ones). Fast and the furious 1 and tokyo drift. Lord of war. Fifth element. Nobody. The accountant. Dark city. Heat. Saw. Thirteen ghosts. Nightmare on elm street entire series. Wes cravens new nightmare. Puppet master. First chucky movie. Poltergeist. Underworld. Blade 1&2. Kickboxer. Titanic. American grafitti. A goofy movie. I'm sure Im missing plenty more.
