What are some of your go-to's when it comes to bringing with movies to watch after a long day on the water? I think I've seen the movie, "The Edge" about 15 times. We watch it every year on our Canada trip. That being said, we're looking to throw in some new oldies.

Is someone else a Bruce Campbell fan? If so then "My Name Is Bruce" and obviously any of the Evil Dead trilogy would be good for a trip. "Alien Apocalypse" on the "it's so bad it's awesome" end of the spectrum....but anything with Bruce Campbell is automatically awesome.

Other good ones that have that campy type of humor would be "Big Trouble in Little China" or "They Live"

ALL of these are solid. I checked the trailer for Blood Hook.....how have I never heard of this!? TOP WATER, Keep in mind, it usually takes us about 3/4 nights to finish a movie. Last time up we threw on Jackass a few times but everyone wanted to shave someone's eyebrows off when they passed out. #*#* got tense.

Bob Mehsakomer,

Starting to see a pattern here? In other words, I'm looking to jog my brain into thinking what I might do tomorrow on the water that I didn't do today. Also, if you pay attention to the background in the video's sometimes you can pick out fishing spots. I've even seen where they've accidently, on purpose, have shown GPS coordinates. So even if I've watched them many times before I just might remember a tip, tactic, or something that will help me on the water tomorrow.

What TOP H20 said - ditto! Eating, catching up on sleep to get fully recharged or sharpening hooks, discussing what has worked so far and plotting strategy for when the thunder & lightning go away! Oh yeah, also monitoring the weather "if" the camp has internet or cell phone service.

Have fun!

In July with the long days it is nothing but eat, fish, sleep, but in October where it is dark so early we usually watch a movie every night while playing Rummy until lights out. The movie is usually Rounders, but Shawshank Redemption, No Country for Old Men, A River Runs Through It, Heat, or Silence of the Lambs are chosen as well to name a few. The movie is always good for background entertainment while heating dinner, eating, and playing cards. My friends and I can pretty much recite Rounders line for line.

I watch movies at home. When I make a trip for muskies. I fish, eat good food, drink good bourbon and stare into a good camp fire. And this all brings on massive amounts of B.S.. All is right with the world.

I'm either a great or terrible person to reply to this. I am a film buff, but not into too much mainstream stuff and I watch a lot of foreign stuff. The other day I watched Dead Man's Shoes--a British revenge thriller from 2005, very good. On a past trip I watched Charley Varrick, a pretty sweet '70s crime film w/Walter Mathau. Really '70s crime movies (whether they're US, British, Japanese or Italian) never get old with me. I watched Re-animator for the first time in years the other week, it's still an awesome horror-comedy and it's getting to be time of year for that kinda thing and I think it plays better to a crowd than straight drama. I always watch Jaws before a trip.

The Edge

It gets tense when you're walking down a narrow lake to lake portage trail and there's a big gigantic pile of warm bear scat - How did I know it was warm?

Have fun!

I used to be ALL about the fish on trips and do nothing but prepare, baits, hooks, etc, etc. I still have hardcore trips where its just sleep/eat/fish but I enjoy the more laid back ones with more memories than big fish. Here are a few:
The Great Outdoors
Pulp Fiction
Wedding Crashers
Hot Fuzz
Blood Hook
Snatch
Boondock Saints
***anything Quentin Taurentino***
