I'm watching Ocean's 11 and it occurred to me that from a very young age I've had an odd love for certain dude movies. It's like my secret shame. These movies aren't intellectual with hidden context that draws the mind to a higher place...no. They're shoot 'em up movies. And so... a list: Rosie's 11: My Top 11 Favorite Dude Movies:
1. The Lethal Weapons (except for the one with Rene Russo they took it too far, as they often do).
2. The Rockys (Especially the one with the Russian).
3. The Terminators (I cry when the crane thing takes Arnold down to be terminated)
4. Con Air
5. Cobra
6. Wyatt Earp (the one with Kevin Costner)
7. All of the Ocean movies
8. The Karate Kid (I'm not sure this counts, it's rather a coming of age story)
9. Man on Fire
10. The Fugitive!
11. Enemy at the Gates
And I didn't even do Will Smith movies.
*** it should be mentioned: I will watch nothing with Peirce Brosnan or Steven Seagal, as this would be crossing the line and I may have my "Girl Card" revoked.

really no rambo?
I dont know if Enemy at the Gates counts as a dude movie either cuz it has the juicy Jude Law in it. Its more of a drool over the babe movie and added blood scenes. But nonetheless it is a great movie. Who wouldn't want to have sex with a dirty soldier under his blanket with tons of people asleep around you. Romantic!

Peter- You are right, it does beloing on the list, I'm ashamed to have forgotten it.
Nadia- True, I often forget one of the reasons I LOVE that movie was the hot Jude Law facotr and the dirty sex factor. Well played.
have you seen the new james bond ? with Daniel Craig ? that is a dude movie I can get behind. And I kinda loved I Am Legend. And The Fugitive! Oh man, that was my favorite growing up. I need to re-watch.
