Ok I have heard of none of those except Dodgeball :biggrin:

I would have to list favs in each genre, because I am a movie freak, but if I tried to pick......

1. The Godfather
2. Braveheart
3. Kill Bill
4. A Tale of 2 Sisters (Korean, but one of the most brilliant stories ever)
5. Goodfellas
6. Tombstone

I am probably leaving some out.

Kill Bill...that is a good one. I liked Kill Bill 2 better than 1.

The problem I have is that I like certain directors so I tend to like their movies. Stanley Kubrick is my fav by a wide margin, Turantino, Orsen Wells, Hitchcock all have movies that were important and I loved them.

Any top 10 that starts with "1. Godfather" has instant credibility far as I'm concerned.

Based on your list, I strongly recommend "Infernal Affairs" to you. It's kind of like a Hong Kong version of "Heat".

Check out Dead Again for sure; it's a neglected masterpiece.

Here's my top ten list of favorites, which I also posted on the other thread:

Lord of the Rings Trilogy
Ben-Hur (1959 version)
Star Wars
Mr. Smith Goes to Washington
The Quiet Man
Stagecoach (1939 version)
Captains Courageous (1937 version)
Patton
Singin' In the Rain
It's a Wonderful Life

I guess I won't be having drinks with Folanator anytime soon because I think Stanley Kubrick is a hack. :biggrin:

1. Crash
2. American History X
3. Boondock Saints
4. The Green Mile.
5. Forrest Gump
6. Braveheart
7. Gladiator
8. Pulp Fiction
9. Saving Private Ryan
