    If you want a film with comedy, tragedy and some romantic weepy moments then my favourite is Shakespeare in Love :) For SciFi with a large dose of dark humour, Dark Star. An oldie, difficult to get but amazing :cool: Or maybe you could tell us what kind of films you prefer ? Elaine :rose: The tigress is here :-D

                      Real Genius - Val Kilmer Older movie about a bunch of geeks at a very prestigious college who unknowingly create a super weapon in the lab. Ridiculously funny.

                      Robert Prescott as Kent Torokvei: You are just a bunch of degenerates.
                      Val Kilmer as Chris Knight: We are, but what about that time I found you naked with a bowl of jell-o?
                      Kent: You did not.
                      Chris: This is true.
                      Kent: I was hot and I was hungry, okay?

                      You can listen to a few more quotes here[^]. Enjoy! -Mike Zinni "No shit it's tough. If it wasn't, everybody and their sister would be an engineer and then you wouldn't have a job."

                            O, Brother where art thou? an American backwoods take of the odyssey. A fun watch, and some great music too. Pulp Fiction A great flick on the seedy underbelly.
