thanks, i believe saving private ryan, and monster's ball dvds are currently available at the video store for 10 bucks used.
of what i've seen so far, i would say the best scene i've ever seen is the first race in the fast and the furious, right from the beginning of a simulation of the gas going through the engine to the finish. i think it's a technically brilliant marvel.
i've seen some negative reviews of fast and the furious, but i think it's a great movie and if i ever taught a college course on cinema, i would use that film, if only for the way it creates it's own world.
and as i mentioned my favorite scene presently is arnold's plunge into the whitewater river in collateral damage. i love the way the sub rumbles when he goes under the water. and the scenery as he goes down the waterfall.
i was always a foreign film and avante garde film buff, but now i just marvel at what hollywood is doing.
