What's the geekiest movie you own?
 
Just wondering what the geekiest movie everyone owns is... bonus points for owning an obscure cult hit on DVD...

Personally, i'm tied between the Tron collectors DVD and Spaceballs.... soon to add UHF to the list.

Grondar 04-22-2003 07:10 PM

I own Alice and Wonderland.

SecretMethod70 04-22-2003 07:15 PM

honestly I don't really own a geeky DVD. I suppose the Island of Dr. Moreau or the Matrix are the closest I come. However I wold like to get the Tron Anniversary edition DVD so I guess that will count once I get it.

World's King 04-22-2003 07:17 PM

Either "Toys" or "Big."

These are classics not geeky.

TaLoN 04-22-2003 07:27 PM

i have all the movies mentioned above WKings post. i have so many movies i don't know exactly which ones to consider geeky. i like to collect the most novelty movies i can find. if it is weird/crazy i either have it or want it. would "hackers" count as a geeky one?

The_Dude 04-22-2003 07:46 PM

jay and silent bob?

way2young 04-22-2003 07:48 PM

The Ancient Civilizations box set on dvd....it doesn't get more boring than that!:p

G_Whiz 04-22-2003 07:52 PM

I've got all the above named movies plus about 3 different versions of Bladerunner.

Probably my geekiest is The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension. I have it in 3 formats (VHS, Laser Disk, and DVD).

XtremeSlacker 04-22-2003 07:58 PM

TRON, Air Jaws 1 & 2, matrix/matrix revisted, Highlander Immortal Edition, Spawn Director's Cut, Blackhole, Spaceballs, Time Bandits, all on DVD soon to add Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Record Of Lodoss War, and Starblazers entire series (hopefully)

lola218 04-22-2003 08:12 PM

I own ,and have probably watched at least 100 times,the H.P.Lovecraft classic, "From Beyond." How sad is it when you can recite lines from this movie and countless other"B" movies?:o

phoenix1002 04-22-2003 08:21 PM

Hmm.. how about "The Abyss special edition DVD"
Gotta love the cheesy looking aliens that don't kill us, because they're our friends...:D

napking 04-22-2003 08:24 PM

not quite a movie, but i did order a copy of starcraft cinematics on dvd when i was really drunk this one time.

phredgreen 04-22-2003 08:28 PM

heh... up until recently the crown jewel of my collection was ben hur - now i'm happy as hell to have novocaine.. awesome flick.

btw, i've moved this thread to the entertainment forum... let's do our best to post threads in the appropriate forums. thanks.

Transformers: The Movie.

A true tear-jerker.

Cynthetiq 04-22-2003 09:23 PM

Civil War Box Set by Ken Burns... oooh... geeky.. no nerdy

Reese 04-22-2003 11:12 PM

I guess Lost boys and Clerks would be considered Pretty Geeky DVDs.

I also have some of the OLD Disney movies In original cases.

Alot of Abbott and Costello too.. I dont know whats more 'geeky'

Mr.Deflok 04-23-2003 12:10 AM

HERCULES IN NEW YORK
Biggest Crap Fest since the last one.

KillerYoda 04-23-2003 12:21 AM

Not really mine, but I had it in my possession (it was a friends) for a few days:

Mummy Raider: A horrible 45 minute long Tomb Raider themed softcore porn.

Keyword: softcore.

krazykemist 04-23-2003 01:59 AM

Hackers 2: Operation Takedown
also Ray Stevens Classic Hits VHS

skinnedmink 04-23-2003 03:27 AM

For cult hit I have Evil Dead.

Pure geekness would be Hackers.

BTW is Hackers 2 good?

DonnChadh 04-23-2003 03:38 AM

Dune, the Special TV Edition

krazykemist 04-23-2003 04:13 AM

skinnedmink- I dont think Hackers 2 is the official name of it. I got it from a friend at a LAN and have since burned to DVD. Its the story of Kevin Mitnick, the infamous Hacker sent to prison that spawned the Free Kevin Campaign. I would not put it in the same category as Hackers or compare them. It doesnt have the lame Hollywood computer hacking effects of Hackers like the computer code walls and such. It does have more realistic elements that can be enjoyed by any old school hacker who ever experiemented with phreaking and the likes. In my opinion an excellent movie to own, especially if your a geek.

TheDave87 04-23-2003 04:47 AM

I think the official name for "Hackers 2" is just Operation: Takedown. at any rate the movie owns.

Rinndalir 04-23-2003 12:09 PM

PI.

"12:50 press Return..."

Atropos4 04-23-2003 12:58 PM

Wizard of Oz
I don't consider it geeky , just a classic

apetaster 04-23-2003 04:13 PM

That would be The Matrix.

ishkeb 04-23-2003 04:46 PM

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles I, II, and III. The first one was good, but they got progressively worse. I saw the third one and bought it, and I haven't even watched it yet, I just had to own it. I have tons of B horror movies, the favorite being Motel Hell, and stuff by Full Moon. I also have lots of anime...thankfully, I didn't buy it, but I have a good friend with a DVD burner who's obsessed with it. Some of those series are expensive, and I don't like spending money.

Scorpio 04-23-2003 04:50 PM

Krull! Where else can you find aliens vs. knights????

Silentdreamer 04-23-2003 04:56 PM

Stephen King's "IT", I happen to love it...but many would consider it geeky.

sierra2774 04-23-2003 06:56 PM

Feeling Minnesota....It was a walmart special.

Gortexfogg 04-23-2003 07:10 PM

Bruce Cambell v. The Army of Darkness: Directers Cut. Yup, that's the geekiest.

Peetster 04-23-2003 07:24 PM

geekiest? That's tough.

I have every Disney movie ever released to home theatre. Which means I DON'T have "Song of the South". Uncle Remus as a content slave didn't fit the Disney profile.

tinger 04-24-2003 12:37 AM

I'm pretty sure I have all of you beat.

I have the Magic: The Gathering U.S. National Championships from 1998 on video.

As an additional point, I've watched it more than once.

iktoweya 04-24-2003 01:45 AM

ummm i have labrynth and the black crystal

K-Billy 04-24-2003 04:32 AM

Spaceballs, The Matrix, Revenge of the Nerds II: Nerds in Paradise (whether or not its geeky, it was a terrible movie that no one should have)

paddyjoe 04-24-2003 04:55 AM

I have the cartoon version of `How the Grinch Stole Christmas', but I don't have any kids.

onodrim 04-24-2003 09:42 AM

I guess Lord of the Rings is the closest thing I own to "geeky." But I wouldn't really call LOTR a geeky movie. :)

burnhm 04-24-2003 09:59 AM

Prob. Groundhog Day or Rudy although tey are two of my faves

eyeronic 04-24-2003 10:12 AM

Spawn. The cartoon. Given to me by my brother. I love it, but I hide it behind other movies in my collection. Just a bit too geeky.

diergray 04-24-2003 01:36 PM

Free Enterprise. The movie is hysterical. Definitely worth a rent.
