Any movie suggestions?

Any movie suggestions that fit the same styles as any of these? I like a vast variety, so there's some examples. Just so sick of wasting my time with stupid movies, when I could be watching great ones.





Any movies like Little Miss Sunshine or The History Boys;


English movies like Bridget Jones' Diary, About A Boy and Love Actually;


Musicals like Moulin Rouge and The Producers;


80's movies like the Back To The Future trilogy and Ferris Buellers' Day Off.


I also love mean teen movies like Mean Girls and Cruel Intentions.





Thanks :)

Any movie suggestions?
Gotta second the vote for 10 Things I Hate About You. Very funny. Lots of heart.





In the English Movie tradition, I'd say Brassed-Off about a local band in a town during the 80's when they were closing down the mines. Again. Lots of heart. Also Circle of Friends with Minnie Driver. Oh, and Love, Actually is genius, so yeah.





For musicals, well Grease, but I'm guessing you've seen it since it's a law that everyone has to. A Chorus Line is wonderful. Chicago has three of the best numbers in HISTORY. Sweeney Todd might ring your bell. For me it was all about the art design as I thought the music sucked. If you enjoyed Moulin Rogue, you may want to see Baz Luhrman's other big movie (non-musical) Romeo+Juliet with Leo and Claire Danes. ...if you haven't already.





Check St. Elmo's Fire and The Breakfast club for your Brat Pack overdose. And if mean is your thing try Heathers. Oops. Don't forget Saved. It's mean AND sweet.





Harol and Kumar is wonderful, but if you're not paying attention it looks like a stoner movie. Look deeper. There's some wonderful stuff about racism and what it means to be American in that film. Also some just crazy stuff from Anthony Anderson as a drive-through employee who don't care no more, and Neil Patrick Harris as... ummm... an evil Neil Patrick Harris.





I could go on, but I find a few good suggestions clouds the issue less than too many choices.
