Animated :
Fantasia
Ponyo
Fantastic Planet - Trippy French movie
Ghost in the Shell
A Scanner Darkly - This counts as animation right?
Action :
Crank & Crank 2 - These are two of the most ridiculous action movies on the planet.
True Lies - It’s almost a spoof on spy movies and a lot of crazy things happen.
Five Element Ninjas - one of the best martial arts movies ever.
Shoot ‘Em Up - Fast forward to more shooting. Oh, that didn’t take long.
Bad Boys 2 - Best Michael Bay movie. No, I’m not kidding.
Sci-Fi Masterpieces:
The Matrix
Tron
Dark City
Minority Report
Total Recall - Pull a tracker out of your head through your nose, go to Mars, and meet a man that lives on another mans abdomen. Just a day in the life of Schwarzenegger in this one.
SUCK Otherwise :
Speed Racer - I actually like this movie, but a lot of other people don’t. It’s very colorful
Batman & Robin - One of the funniest movies by accident ever? Unless you’re a big Batman fan, then this movie is your Bane. Get it? GET IT?!
Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus - This can be interchangeable with any Sci-Fi/SyFy original movie.
Van Helsing - Vampires, werewolves, and Frankenstein’s monster. What did I just watch?
The Island - Again, what did I just watch?
