Here as well. My other main hobby other than music is movies; I was a DVD reviewer for a pretty large website for awhile, but it was too time consuming for a guy who was working 6 days a week at the time. I can't ever see me giving up either music or movies as my two main hobbies....I've easily got over 1500 titles sitting around here, and likely more than that. I'll throw a list out of some of my favorites -

Kill Bill Vol. 1
The Godfather
Serenity
Escape From New York
The Omega Man
Rocky
Chisum
McClintock!
Gettysburg
Saving Private Ryan
Raging Bull
Cop Land
Tombstone
Black Rain
The Shootist
Goodfellas
Patton
Diamonds Are Forever
Casino Royale (and any other Bond movie in the canon)

Charlie Varrick (Walther Matthau)
Liam Neeson (Rob Roy)
Jaws (Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw, Richard Dreyfuss)
American Grafitti (Richard Dreyfuss)
The Graduate (Dustin Hoffman)
Midnight Cowboy (Dustin Hoffman, John Voight)
Three & Four Musketeers (Oliver Reed, Michael York)

Newer -

Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr., Jeff Bridges)
Fargo (Frances McDormand, Steve Buscemi, Bill Macy)
Silence of the Lambs (Anthony Hopkins & Jody Foster)
American Psycho (Christian Bale)
Gladiator (Russell Crowe, Oliver Reed)
Election (Matthew Broderick)
Sid & Nancy (Gary Oldman)
The Fifth Element (Gary Oldman, Bruce Willis)
The 12 Monkeys (Bruce Willis)
Brazil (Jonathan Pryce)
Fisher King (Jeff Bridges)
Alien (Sigourney Weaver, Ian Holm)

Whew!
