Default February: Film Review request month - what you want?

I've decided all films reviewed in February will be requests only, and I'm now taking them. 3-4 a week is my limit for this.

People have sent me requests before, but I lost all of them when my palm pc crashed [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] , and I can't remember who asked for what.

So fire away for any other film/TV show reviews you want to see. I'll be choosing them on the basis of what I've seen or have on my shelf to see, how popular specific requests are, how appealing I think they may be to OOT tastes, and special preference to any odd/mostly unseen ones that I think will appeal to OOTers.

Pryor and Dom seem to do the classics, and Dom/Pryor/KDawg seem to do recent and current releases, so lets steer clear of those maybe?

Now, to keep this a reasonable thread promoting discussion rather than a string of requests, I'll also welcome any comments on my past selection process, what films best suit my style, and stuff like that.

EDIT: Here's a link to ALL reviews done so far, and a link to the top 100 Pryor is following, so no films from these please.

You could fill some holes in your list with regard to the upcoming Oscars:

Squid and the Whale
Walk the Line
Capote
Good Night & Good Luck

Or a few of my all-time favorites that have not yet been reviewed:

Almost Famous
Enternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
You Can Count on Me

Anybody who will review X-The Man with the X-Ray Eyes can pretty much pick whatever he wants as far as I'm concerned.
