Heard good things about a new Woody Allen movie out now. The main point of my post is what are some Woody movies I should watch to get me into him?

I have seen a couple and really enjoyed them, but its been so long that I cannot remember them.

He sure seems to get a lot of acclaim but gets next to no publicity for his movies and they never play around here. I find all that strange since he seems to always get big name actors.

So what should I go out and rent/buy right now?

Annie Hall is a definite.

Is that the movie with Sean Penn? If so, I have seen that one but didn't realize it was a Woody Allen movie.

Bananas is worth repeating!

As is Hannah & Her Sisters & Crimes & Misdemeanors

I'd advise u to stay away from Interiors, though

Yup. Definitely not a typical Woody Allen movie.

Broadway Danny Rose
I think that's a really great movie. The recent one (too lazy to search imdb) with the guy from american pie is cool. Watching Woody tearing apart a sports car and talking about violent self-defense is excellent !

Same here. I watched Deconstructing Harry a few weeks ago and really liked it.

Thank you, netflix.

I've seen Annie Hall, Crimes and Misdemeanors, The Purple Rose of Cairo, Scoop, Match Point, and Small Time Crooks.

I can't wait to get through the rest.

Husbands & Wives and Manhattan are my favorites.

Take the Money and Run is his funniest, probably.

Match Point fucking blows.

It's definitely between Manhattan and Annie Hall. Forced to pick I'd go with the latter.
