The choice is simple: This Is Spinal Tap

OK, there are other favourites, but this should be near the top of every list.

Ignore Richey, he's just miffed he's only allowed one birthday a year.

Hmm, can we please streamline this to one film per person?
Long lists make me switch off.

My fave is Mad Max 2

Why? I don't know.

Surely if you want to complain, a better place is in feedback or indeed on those threads that are more truelly worthless than this. Alternatively, you might post something?
and who the f**k died and left you in charge? i happen to feel that favourite movie/band/record/colour/my little pony/vegetable/allergy threads are an utter waste of bandwidth. i feel that given the thread's title my comment was perfectly valid in this context.

now, what's your problem with free speech?

A japanese film (not anim) set in a not too distant future where parents have passed laws due to kids being too violent.

A class full of kids is sent off to an desserted island to battle it out until only one survives, kinda in a big brother reality TV sort of way. Only the last survivor will be let of the island and they have to knock off everyone else in a certain amount of time or they all die.

Oh, and they get given random weapons.

It was kinda cool.
