Hooligans sucked, no way an American could break into that world like that, your raised in it.

Football Factory rocked.

Also- Children of men.

I just posted something similar to this in another thread.  But seriously, I feel like the "favorite movies" for every dude in college are:
Boondock Saints
Requiem for a Dream
Fight Club

I'm going into my senior year of college right now, and I'm certain I've seen Boondock Saints at least 30 times.

I was disappointed with this. I don't think it is even close to Lock Stock.

I loved that movie.  I can't remember whether I cried or not. 

Another good one: My Cousin Vinny.  That chick is fucking hilarious.
