Okay, I also saw this one for the first time this weekend. Holy Shiznits - what a kick ass movie! Freakin loved it - I was trying to think of the perfect word all weekend for how to describe it and the only one I could find was 'COOL' The movie is just plain cool. The characters were brilliant, the plot was creative, and the ending was perfect.

Freakin loved it! What do you guys think?

If you've seen the trailer for Guy Ritchie's next film called SNATCH, you'll notice the extreme similarities between the two, so prepare yourself for another rockin' good time! This one even has Brad Pitt speaking incoherently as a pitbull fighter-type dude.

I thought Snatch was a really good movie, although at times feeling a little too Lock, Stock 2... Guy Ritchie uses the bigger budget to good effect stylewise, and although the dialogue isn't as consistently good as in Lock, Stock, it is still very funny - and Vinnie Jones is great!

I loved Lock Stock And Two Smoking Barrels!! I can't wait to see Snatch. LSaTSB is for me the coolest British film i have ever seen. It kinda reminded me of the "God Amongst Directors" --- TARANTINO!!

Snatch has been out in UK cinemas a couple of weeks now, which is how I've seen it. There was also a Lock, Stock.. spin off series on UK TV (out on PAL VHS now) which I didn't see... did you guys in America get the Director's Cut of Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels?

Hey guys i've been on hiatus for a week or so but i'm back now and this looks like the perfect category to start again...

LS2SB is my 5th favorite movie of all time. Quentin and i repeatedly argue over this film as well. I say that the plot is very original and although it has a sort of Tarantino feel to it, its very different from anything Tarantino. He says that its unoriginal and isn't great (good not great). I dont wanna start any fights its just that i thought LS2SB was one of the most original movies i've ever seen and the ending was amazing...what do you all think?
Original as sliced bread or singularly wrapped hot dogs?

The concept was pretty original - but there have been many movies out there in the last few years where the main characters get surrounded by tons of other groups that either want them dead or want something from them, then at the end it all works out to where they either kill each other off or get arrested.

But, I still loved the feel to this movie, it was so freakin sweet - I can't wait to see SNATCH.

I really dig this flick too...much more than "Pulp Fiction"...so here's some favorite lines...

Eddy: They're armed.
Soap: Armed, armed with what?
Eddy: Feather duster, colorful language, what do you think?
Guns, you tit!

Rory Breaker: If the milk turns out to be sour, I ain't the kinda
pussy to drink it.

Nick the Greek: I'll need a sample.
Tom: Ahh, no can do I'm afraid.
Nick the Greek: What's that? Some place near Katmandu?
Meet me halfway mate.

[Nick pulls out a wad of cash.]
Eddy: Jesus Christ! You could choke a dozen donkeys on that,
and you're haggling over one hundred pound? What do you do
when you're not buying stereos, Nick, finance revolutions?

Tom: Look it's all completely chicken soup.
Nick the Greek: It's what?
Tom: It's kosher. As Christmas.
Nick the Greek: The Jews don't celebrate Christmas, Tom.

Big Chris: It's been emotional.

Tom: There's no money, there's no weed. It's all been replaced
by a pile of corpses.

Rory Breaker: If you hold back anything, I'll kill ya. If you bend
the truth or I think your bending the truth, I'll kill ya. If you forget
anything I'll kill ya. In fact, you're gonna have to work very hard
to stay alive, Nick. Now do you understand everything I've said?
Because if you don't, I'll kill ya.

"Hatchet" Harry: I don't want to know who you use, as long
as they're not complete muppets.

Soap: A minute ago this was the safest job in the world. Now it's
turning into a bad day in Bosnia.

Winston: Charles, get the rifle out. We're being fucked.

Soap: Also, I think knives are a good idea. Big, fuck-off shiny
ones. Ones that look like they could skin a crocodile. You see,
knives are good, because they don't make a lot of noise. The less
noise they make, the more likely we are to use them. Shit 'em
right up. Guns for show, knives for a pro.

Barry the Baptist: Fucking northern monkeys!
Lenny: I hate these southern fairies!

Soap: OY! Keep your fingers out of my soup!

Barry the Baptist: If you don't want to be counting the fingers
you haven't got, I suggest you get those guns. Quick!

Gary: Shotguns? What, like guns that fire shot?
Barry the Baptist: Oh, you must be the brains of the operation.
Yes, guns that fire shot.

Winston: We grow copious amounts of ganja here, and you're
carrying a wasted girl and a bag of fertilizer. You don't look like
your average horti-fucking-culturalist.
