Seal has a new girlfriend and her name is whatshernameIdon'tcare. Will Pippa Middleton face arrest? Will switching to Progressive really give you better discounts?

Midnight Movie Marathon

Written by Jonathan Jacobs

First I will announce the top five wolves of all time:

1. Michael J Fox Teen Wolf 2. Jack Nicholson in Wolf 3. Jason Bateman in Teen Wolf 2 4. Benicio Del Toro in The Wolfman 5. Taylor Lautner as Jacob Black in New Moon

Midnight movies are the core of what is means to be a movie fan. If you love movies, and for those of you who regularly read this website I know you do, watching late night shows is the most satiating experience of them all. A midnight movie is like the Super Bowl of Hollywood, or the Wrestlemania of movies, or the World Series of films. Choosing the top ten midnight movies for a marathon is no easy task. I am torn between choosing my favorites and offering you the best possible experience, i.e. the Panglossian-Millian "greatest good for the greatest number". I bet your appetite is whetted and you cannot wait to find out what is on this list. Click read more people!

1. Sin City: This is an unconventional choice I know. Keep in mind this is a list of the top ten best midnight movies to watch, not the ten best of all time. I could have easily put Halloween 2 the original on this list. Sin City is a cinematographic masterpiece. Almost every actor is young and full of potential or is a classic veteran. From Elijah Wood to Bruce Willis, Josh Hartnett to Rosario Dawson, Michael Clarke Duncan to Clive Owen, Jessica Alba to Brittany Murphy, this is a star-studded show. I also considered The Jacket with Adrien Brody but that is too morbid to recommend.

2. The Beach: No this is not Bette Middler’s Beaches, this is Leo DiCaprio’s The Beach. While enjoying his youth, DiCaprio’s character travels to Thailand for some adventure and potentially hot buck-naked sex. He finds both and more. Watching Leo eat a live caterpillar is hilarious albeit really gross. This is a true adventure movie and the dialogue is worth lying in bed for.

3. The Wonder Boys: Robert Downey Jr., Michael Douglas and Tobey Maguire, what more can you ask for? Three stellar actors causing a raucous and spewing out bizarrely over-the-top intellectual dialogue in depressing blue lighting and wintery scenes is a sight to behold. Based on Michael Chabon’s The Wonder Boys, the movie is a real treat, it is vital hemoglobin for red-blooded male.

4. Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith: If viewed in 1080 Blue Ray quality HD this is visually stunning. When hoping to remain awake by being dazzled by special effects this is a winner. It is not the best Star Wars film of the six but it is the best of the first three remakes which turned many fans off to the series forever. The upside is watching Yoda fight for his life against a sith lord. The downside is grinding your teeth at the worst portrayed romance of all time between the over-emotional Hayden Christensen and the untalented Natalie Portman.

5. Street Kings: Is there anything better than Keanu Reeves and Forest Whitaker playing a game of life and death cat and mouse before bed? This is Reeves’ most badass performance and one of Whitaker’s gems of brutal dishonesty. For some reason I cannot stop watching it over and over again.

6. The Color of Night: Arguably this is not much of a movie at all. Instead, it is a sexual murder-mystery thriller starring Bruce Willis (whose penis is on display), Scott Bakula, and the lovely but under-rated Jane March. The graphic sex scenes in the pool and the star powered nudity are a sight to behold. Very exhilarating sexually and very nice before bed time.

7. Heart in Atlantis: Based on the novel by prolific author Stephen King, Hearts in Atlantis is a terribly sad coming of age tale told retrospectively. Starring Anthony Hopkins as an FBI psychic runaway, this is a romantic picture that may well make you cry and will at the very least make your hair stand up. Sweet dreams will follow with scenes reminiscent of your escaping youth.

8. Casablanca: Not only is this arguably the most classic film of all time, it could bore the clothing off any reluctant woman who happens to be cuddling with you in bed. Humphrey Bogart puts on a showcase of acting that has lasted for generations. It is simply a movie one can be swept away by.

9. Harold and Kumar: Possibly the most enjoyable late night movie, and certainly one of the funniest. I still want a White Castle burger. I have never had one and the thought of biting into one is making me drool. Having said that, Steak and Shake (a more than suitablke substitute, ask for the Firsco melt) is right around the corner. P.S. I do not want to be branded by Neil Patrick Harris.

10. Road Trip and Euro Trip: No they are not tied for tenth place, they are now on the same DVD! How amazing is that? Both films are hysterical. Watching the bone thin DJ Qualls initiate sex with a four hundred black college girl is worth $9.99. In Euro Trip the breasts are flourishing and sex is a hallmark of a midnight movie. Seeing Matt Damon as a rock star lip singing "Scotty Don’t Know" is classic.

Make your own top ten list, it is more fun than you would expect. Feel free to share!
