Snatch is the shit.
I plan to watch MIB3 on Friday and then sneak into Battleship, anyone seen that one yet?

Well, since Citizen Kane is generally considered one of the top 50 or 100 best movies in the world, and in the top 10 or 15 best American movies (American Film Institute has it number one), I think everyone should try and watch it at least once. The only way to find out if you like or dislike Citizen Kane (or any movie) is to watch it.
My recommendation, to anyone who wanted to watch it, is to first watch it (if you have the time) with Roger Eberts commentary on, then watch it again with the normal sound track. Eberts commentary is almost a film class in itself.Don't get me wrong, I feel that everyone should watch it as well. It's just not a film I'll recommend to someone who isn't already into old movies. I like to start people off with comedies. Some Like it Hot (my personal favorite), Arsenic and Old Lace (which you also mentioned), Bringing Up Baby, The Odd Couple, Monkey Business, etc... are usually a few of the films I like to start people off with. I feel if they can get some laughs, they can get over the prejudices they have towards older flicks. Once a joy is established, then I like to hit them with Casablanca, The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, Citizen Kane, Wuthering Heights, Gilda, On the Waterfront, etc... If that goes over well, then it's on to musicals and silent films.
That's just my approach though. Start off light and fun and slowly dive into the rest.

I own all of those. i love how his movies are set up, with all those different stories all eventually converging. Snatch is my favorite though, i think. And that might be mostly because of brad pitt.

i like watching casablanca with someone that has never seen it before. so many memorable lines in that movie, always interesting seeing how many they have heard before, but didn't know it was from this movie.

Well, with the new broadcast channels that show the "oldies" available after the switch to digital TV (Antenna TV, This TV, ME TV etc.), hopefully more people will begin to appreciate the older black and white TV shows and movies. I just recently found a mystery movie series I had never heard of before: The Lone Wolf, From Columbia Pictures. It's about Michael Lanyard, known as the Lone Wolf, a former master jewel thief who solves crimes because, if he didn't, he usually wound up being the chief suspect. I could only find a short clip:
Thinking about black and white movies reminded me of the H. P. Lovecraft Historical Society production of Lovecrafts story "The Call of Cthulhu." They filmed it as it would have been made in 1926, shortly after the original story was published. Probably the most faithful adaptation of a Lovecraft story ever made.
They have recently done Lovecrafts "The Whisperer in Darkness" as a early 1930's horror movie, but I haven't seen it yet.

I bought mine from the HPLHS, but I later saw it at Best Buy.
Lurker Films has put out The H. P. Lovecraft Collection on dvd (5 volumes so far), films screened at the H. P. Lovecraft Film Festival.

Got some recorded bits of Takeshi's Castle from my cousins.
I'm a little disappointed that it's not the original JP version though. That means Takeshi Kitano won't show up. Instead, I get an Englishman VO who yells "Ya wazzick!!" every 5 minutes.
Oh well, at least I get to see it again. That show was a childhood favorite of mine.
