Started by Mike Olbinski · 10 months ago

Ever since Jim Halpert did Desert Island on the Fire Guy episode of The Office, it’s been a fun style of questioning to think about and use from time to time.

  • I guess my two movies I'd bring would be any HD-DVD movie because without a player on the deserted island they would be uselss kinda like they already are today =)

    But if there was a player with power etc, I'd bring:

    Cast Away - to get my self ready for a life on the island
    McGuyver, The Return - made for TV movie, in that I wouldnt have to have a life on the island and could learn how to get off it, using just a palma granite and my shoe laces, because I would HAVE to get back to A MO's Life blog!!! Whatever it takes man!!
  • McGuyver??? LOL!
  • The Cap'n beat me to the humorous answer, so I'll just answer straight.

    Legally Blond and Ghost. But just the scene with the pottery wheel.

  • Like any real man, one would have to the Godfather (note, since I have the set and they are all in one case, I think all 3 should count as 1), the other would be a toss up between Shawshank Redemption and Caddyshack.

  • 1. LOTR - because it is one movie. :)
    2. PulpFictionKillBill1&2ResevoirDogsPrincessBrideTheUsualSuspects
  • Seven Samurai
    Lawrence of Arabia
  • Tough question and my answer could change from minute to minute, but as of right now -

    Goodfellas

    The Big Lebowski

    By the way Mike, I agree with you about A Few Good Men - can't help but watch it if its on TV.

    Steven's last blog post..Site Update
  • R.A....I am not sure exactly why you'd pick the Ghost pottery scene out of all the ones out there...but alright :)
  • This is an easy question. While there are a ton of movies I love, there are two favorites that rise above the rest.

    1. Three Amigos - I laugh hard every time, in fact I watched it last night.
    2. Braveheart - greatest movie ever made. period.
  • Braveheart is indeed awesome...FREEEEDOM!

    But on a deserted island, not sure I could watch that chicks neck getting sliced over and over...
  • Castaway and Lord of the Flies. :)
  • What a nerd :)
