Your top 25 favorite movies.

[BB73]

I need to re-do my list. I have some changes.. The new Star Trek, The Godfather, Taxi Driver... probably The Dark Knight.. probably a few others I'm not thinking about right now. And there are a handful on there I don't consider my favorites anymore. I'm looking at you, Little Miss Sunshine.

[BUCKYLE] Make sure you're honest with yourself and keep WALL-E on there. [/BUCKYLE]

Cool Hand Luke - "What we've got here is, - failure to communicate."
(No offense to your pick)

No offense at all. I wanted to pick some that weren't always the most famous quotes from the movie.

2001! Damnit, forgot. Gonna have to fix my list....:tongue2:


I haven't seen The Usual Suspects. I have caught that movie a hundred times in the middle and I will turn it off. I want to see it from the beginning. Everybody tells me it's great.

War of the Worlds (original)

[Mark May] - Mili reminds me in an indirect way of

The Third Man - Haunting, complex movie exploring human weakness and the nature of evil. Best Zither score evah :p

And I love this ad lib by Harry Lime (Orson Welles):

"Don't be so gloomy. After all it's not that awful. Like the fella says, in Italy for 30 years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love - they had 500 years of democracy and peace. And what did that produce? The cuckoo clock...."

 

[Muck]

Aliens
American Beauty
Big Trouble in Little China

Galaxy Quest
Groundhog Day
Jaws
Kill Bill
Leap of Faith
Letters from Iwo Jima
National Lampoon's Vacation

Raiders of the Lost Ark
Romancing the Stone
Seven Samurai
Shaun of the Dead

Wow, that's a lot of movies to nail down, but off the top of my head...(I'm sure I forgot several and will resist the urge to edit)
- The Godfather (Set the standard)
- The Godfather II (Improved on the standard)
- Goodfellas (has it all)
- Raging Bull (Godfellas was great, but this was DeNiro and Pesci at their best)
- Dog Day Afternoon (Attica! Attica! Attica!)
- The Empire Strikes Back (ah, childhood)
- Star Wars: A New Hope (ah, childhood part deux)
- There Will Be Blood (DDL is out of his mind)
- The Big Lebowski ("What are you now? A [censored]ing park ranger?!?", Walter Sobcheck is one of the funniest characters in cinematic history)
- O Brother Where Art Thou (Such a cool movie)
- Rocky (Best "feelgood" movie ever)
- Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas (Come on, it's HST and Depp nails it)
- Donnie Brasco (never would've guessed Depp and Pacino would make such a great onscreen duo)
- Matchstick Men (Nic Cage is really hit-or-miss, but I love this movie)
- Gladiator (if this movie doesn't get your blood pumping, uh...buy a blood pumping machine)
- Grosse Point Blank (Cool movie...awesome soundtrack)
- High Fidelity (Cusack very easy to identify with)
- Rushmore (such a great script)
- The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou ("Son of a bitch, I'm sick of these dolphins."...Bill Murray is a genius)
- Wonderboys (I'm a big Michael Chabon fan and this is a great adaptation)
- Tombstone (filled with great quotes and Kilmer's Doc Holliday is one of my favorite movie characters ever.)
- Dazed and Confused ("Alright, alright, alright!")
- Glengarry Glen Ross (Great cast, under-appreciated flick)
- Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind (Was blown away when I first saw this)
- Forrest Gump (It's [censored]ing Forrest Gump)
- Requiem For A Dream (Dark, creepy, the best anti-drug message money can buy)

Looking back 3+ years later, can't say it's really changed...
