Bad Lieutenant scene where Kietel goes off on Kal Daniels while listening to the game in his car was epic and well racist but I was crying laughing.

Owning Mahoney as mentioned is an excellent underground film you probably have not seen.

And of course Rounders. :0074

Here is another excellent underground film no one has mentioned.

"Finder's Fee" with James Earl Jones and Matthew Lillard.

:142smilie Bookies was on one of the movie channels about a week ago. I think I made it through the first 15 minutes of that f'er, then had to turn it off before I opened up a vein. Not sure why, but that dude from Roseanne has always annoyed the shit out of me. :shrug:
