While you are looking at Russel Crowe, check out Gladiator.

An overlooked film, Speed Racer, is a favorite. Written and directed by the Wachowskis (The Matrix), staring Emile Hirsch, Christina Ricci, John Goodman, Susan Sarandon. Music score by Michael Giacchino.

I just watched Tropic Thunder again last week. I think that movie should definitely be in a regular rotation.

And I know you have Saving Silverman in there already, but worth mentioning again.

That's another movie that was way better than I expected.

Anybody remember "The last star fighter"?
Watched this one dozens of time as a kid.

I'm thinking about getting Rooster Cogburn and both versions of True Grit.

John Goodman reminded me....The Big Lebowski!

If you haven't seen 10 Cloverfield Lane you have to give that one a shot. It's weird.  Goodman is an awesome actor.
