What's Your Favorite Underappreciated Movie?
Moses Lawn asks: "With the impending re-release of Spirited Away, I've been wondering about this. There are a lot of movies I love that no one else seems to know about. Some of them disappeared from theaters within a week, some came out years ago and seem to have been forgotten. Here are a few of my favorites: The Hot Rock, The Pope Must Diet (formerly 'The Pope Must Die'), They Might Be Giants, and The Big Hit. Maybe you like these, too. Maybe you think they stink up the joint. So what are your favorite forgotten movies?"
It was funny, but almost went to extremes for the humor so a lot of it was missed by many people.

"You're my Juliet... *kiss* my Venus... *kiss*...Do you want me to talk dirty to you now?"
"Do you smell something?"
"Like what?"
"Like a Xa--forget it."
The Big Hit was good, but I think my all-time favourite "underrated" movie was:

The Boondock Saints
It rocks
As for underrated TV shows, my all-time favourite is Vengeance Unlimited, with Firefly being a close second. I heard a rumor that Firefly is coming out on DVD! woo!
The Adventures of Buckeroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension.
It's a definate original. If only they had been able to make the planned sequal.
