<p>My guys like
Scarface, Boondock Saints, Shawshank Redemption, Top Gun, Days of Thunder, The Transporter, Pi</p>
<p>Gosh - look at the movies males like. It’s no wonder women think we’re all dain bramaged. :)</p>
<p>If we’re not fighting or rebelling, we’re drinking ourselves senseless or chasing women.</p>
<p>^Yep.</p>
<p>Other thematic guy movies that [bold]I[/bold] like: Old Man and the Sea, The River Runs Through It.</p>
<p>…how about Traffic, Crash and Dances With Wolves. Also, my husband enjoyed National Treasure (I did too…Sean Bean… 
)</p>
<p>Ironically, my husband claims his number one favorite movie of all time is…Armageddon. Huh? What is up with Armageddon…I don’t get it. My 13 year old son’s favorite is Day After Tomorrow…he’s always had a thing about weather/meteorology.</p>
<p>My husband has different taste in movies than I do.
He liked Forest Gump- and I could hardly stand to sit through it, and he also liked Mystic River & I thought it was overdone
( can you tell we don’t go out to many movies?)
He of course- likes the movies I like- since I have excellent taste-
but I am very picky, much more so with dramas than comedys, all a comedy has to do is make me laugh- although I haven’t heard anything that makes me want to see Borat- and I haven’t seen the Aristocrats either.
But I do like “guy” movies- although perhaps that is because of all the * guys* in them! :D</p>
<p>more movies-
Pulp Fiction
the first three Star Wars ( only)
One flew over the cuckoos nest
LOTR all three
Chinatown
The Usual Suspects
The Grifters
Fargo
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Ran
Stand by Me
Die Hard
Glory
The Big Lebowski</p>
<p>One of my favorite movies is The Producers with Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder. I’ve probably seen it 100 times and it still cracks me up. I think I can recite over 1/2 the dialogue.</p>
<p>For some reason, men seem to like it more than women. Not sure why.</p>
<p>This guy movie list is getting pretty all-incompassing. Is everything a guy movie that doesn’t have a lot of women in dresses talking over tea? I mean, come on, how are all these good, classic movies “guy movies”?</p>
<p>See, we’re all about noble causes and rescuing damsels in distress. Fighting the good fight, as it were. Feel free to swoon at our feet. :)</p>
<p>Then we’d pick you up, make honest women of you and have you as the mother of our children. Growing old and gray with great-grandchildren at our feet.</p>
<p>So am I! Well, not the damsels in distress part, but the rest!</p>
<p>But I mean, c’mon–Glory, Shawshank Redemption, Rudy, Cool Hand Luke, Office Space, the Matrix, Shrek, Clerks, Bull Durham, Field of Dreams, My Cousin Vinny, Star Wars, Monty Python, Indiana Jones, Harry Potter…</p>
<p>Those are movies about people, being people (or ogres)! Not to mention that many of them have extremely equally heroic women characters.</p>
<p>Now Saw, I’ll give you…</p>
<p>I’m the only XX in a house full of XYs including the dog. haha</p>
<p>Two favorites of my family’s favorites are, Lonesome Dove and The Last of the Mohicans. We’ve watched all the Rambo’s, of course, and although not a favorite, they are definitely guy flicks. Luckily, I prefer these types to the typical chick flick. </p>
<p>I also second the Band of Brothers. We’ve watched our DVDs of the series several times.</p>
<p>Gladiator hasn’t been mentioned. Master and Commander is a guy movie for all ages; defuineitly a father-and-son movie.</p>
<p>garland is right about going overboard in labeling something a guy movie. However, Clerks is defintiely a guy movie.</p>
<p>Cool Hand Luke is certainly a guy movie. I can only think of one female speaking part in the movie, that of Luke’s dying mother that comes to visit him.</p>
<p>“That Luke, he a good ol’ boy!”</p>
<p>Guy Movie Hall of Fame Scenes:</p>
<p>Car washing scene in Cool Hand Luke
3-way scene in Wild Things (Denise Richards/Neve Campbell/Matt Dillon)</p>
<p>Dadguy, somebody did mention Gladiator several posts back. </p>
<p>My H likes all those older Clint Eastwood westerns. And the Dirty Harry movies. I can take them or leave them. I do like a lot of the “guy” movies that are action movies—I just don’t like the gory war and horror movies. </p>
<p>sons like:
Hero
all LOTR
all MI
Office Space
Gladiator
Sandlot
Rudy
James Bond movies
Pirates of the Carribbean (first and second)</p>
<p>How about The Rock?</p>
<p>It’s clear that guys like a wide variety of movies, making it hard to define exactly what a Guy Movie is. It’s easier to say what a guy movie is not:</p>
<p>A sensitive movie about the sensitive relationship between two sensitive women and all the sensitive ups and downs of their lives and relationship over the years = NOT a guy movie.</p>
<p>Most underrated “guy movie” in the world: Princess Bride.</p>
<p>Any guy who doesn’t get why it’s a “guy movie” doesn’t get guy movies, guys.</p>
<p>Does anyone remember North Dallas Forty? Both my dad and my dh loved that movie. I think we need to narrow the genre down: </p>
<p>Best Guy Movies About …(Football)…</p>
<p>For football, my guys would say…North Dallas Forty, Any Given Sunday and Friday Night Lights. (I would say Rudy…that movie makes me cry. But my vote doesn’t count. )</p>
<p>Well, if you’re looking for a football movie that makes grown men cry:
** Brian’s Song**</p>
<p>James Bond movie marathons on TV are a must for husband, even though he’s seen them all double digit times.</p>
