LotR, maybe, but the bus ride would kinda ruin the atmosphere. I'd suggest (like many other before) Pirates and Holy Grail. Ocean's 11 would also be a good choice. Dr. Strangelove is a classic, but if you don't have a lot of crazy global-dictator still-living-in-the-cold-war-era type of students, most of the bus will be crying to turn it off. Robin Hood: Men in Tights or History of the World Part I are good for some cheap laughs (Spaceballs is good, but not funny after the first time), and Shrek and Finding Nemo are always good fall-backs. Of course if you've completely given up on finding a movie with any sort of decent plot at all, you can always turn on Starship Troopers.
I love Shawshank and American History X there both really good movies. But like you said our coaches wouldn't approve it. But I'll take the other ones in considernation(sp)
