Your Favorite Movie/s?

Greg21 · 24-07-2006, 03:19 AM

I could narrow it down to about 3, and they're completely different.
Office Space, Snatch, and the POTC movies.

Swordsman · 24-07-2006, 03:25 AM

I'm pretty sure if you just went back a few pages, you'd find this thread.

Hazzle · 24-07-2006, 08:48 AM

Don't believe there's one exactly like this. There's one for favourite Keira movie, and one for movies seen today etc but nothing specifically about a top 3 of all time.

DefyingGravity · 24-07-2006, 08:42 PM

The POTC movies are plural, which means it's more than one, which means your total is more than three, silly.

My top 3:

1. Millenium Actress
2. Bend it Like Beckham
3. Dr. Strangelove

Greg21 · 24-07-2006, 09:33 PM

You don't have to post top 3, I did just because I like them equally in different ways.

I said ABOUT 3, and the potc movies are like just 1 big movie.

hasselbrad · 24-07-2006, 10:02 PM

Pirates of the Caribbean-The Curse of the Black Pearl
Dazed and Confused
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
The Usual Suspects

There are others, but I can't really think right now.

I saw District 13, and I feel as if I don't need to watch films ever again.
Well, the occasional rewatch of Ong Bak and Tom Yoong Goon (aka, warrior king, even though it has nothing to do with a warrior king)

Lacy · 24-07-2006, 10:55 PM

Gah, I couldn't possibly narrow them down. I will just post them in no order and more than three

Trainspotting
Requiem for a Dream
POTC movies
Donnie Darko
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

Any person who considers Requiem for a Dream as one of their favourite films are mentally fucked up, and obviously has deep rooted psychological problems.
Don't get me wrong, its a great great film, but I couldn't watch it more than once.

GoPre · 25-07-2006, 01:14 AM

Lotr, potc, kill bill, and starwars series

and hostel, last samurai, kingdom of heaven.

Well aren't you a little ray of sunshine. Just because I consider it one of my favorite movies doesn't mean I don't think it is f***ed up. Yes, it is disturbing and extremely depressing, but it moves you. You couldn't possibly watch that movie and leave without being touched. Perhaps it wasn't in a way you wanted or liked, but it moved you nontheless. It is a very powerful film. I might, infact, have "deep rooted psychological problems" but that has nothing to do with me loving the movie.

Pygmalion · 25-07-2006, 03:20 AM

1. Kill Bill vol. 1
2. Sin City
3. Snatch

GoPre do you like The Hostel because it has lots of boobs in? Because I've seen a lot of disgusting gruesome movies in my time and that one comes top. I think they should've gone into the whole idea the movie was based on more rather than the boobs and gore.

Ed Wood is brilliant I can't believe I forgot that on my list :icon_redf

Swordsman · 25-07-2006, 06:18 AM

Fight Club, Pulp Fiction, any Wes Anderson films, Kevin Smith films except Jersey Girl, Sin City, Kill Bill, Resevoir Dogs, Cinatown, Garden State, i'm always up for a Scorsese flick (should've won so many fucking oscars). There's probably other movies.

runangl · 25-07-2006, 06:44 AM

hmmm...

if i HAD to choose just one, i'd say:

and if i had another three after that (in no particular order) garden state, sin city, eternal sunshine of the spotless mind

Hazzle · 25-07-2006, 08:47 AM

I'm with Cliffeh on Requiem. I'm fucked up and even I wouldn't have that as a "favourite" film so anyone who does is a certified nutjob.

Win a Date with Tad Hamilton...heh.

Cara rocks. I want to have your babies.

A few of my favourites that noone's mentioned by name:

Taxi Driver.
Dogma.
Shallow Grave.
The Crow.
Shawshank Redemption.
As Good as It Gets.
Gladiator.
Big Trouble In Little China.
It's A Wonderful Life.
Leon.

Digital_Ice · 25-07-2006, 09:40 AM

I'm going to throw in a different viewpoint. from a cinematography point of view, requiem is an amazing film. I love it. From a script point of view, yes, its a bit, erm, well, weird. I'd watch it more than once... but not too often.

I am a huge movie fan, so i can possibly pick a top three, but to name but a few;
The Princess Bride,
POTC: CBP
Donnie Darko
Labyrinth
The Fast & The Furious
Trainspotting
Italian Job
The Love Bug (herbie is the kewlest Volkswagen ever!)
*batteries not included
Fight Club
Big Fish
It's A Wonderful Life.
The Hitchickers Guide to the Galaxy (the original... yes i know it was a tv series but pfft)
Batman Begins

...i could go on... but i wont.
