My "Favourite Movie" Thread

There is a movie thread here [Movie Thread!-Part 2) this is part 2. that you may want to read.
It may be an idea to keep this one just for everyone’s top ten films. :content:

Good idea for a string by the way.

  1. Donnie Darko
  2. American Beauty
  3. Bringing Out the Dead
  4. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
  5. Punch Drunk Love
  6. Fight Club
  7. Taxi Driver
  8. Vanilla Sky
  9. Fritz The Cat
  10. Meet Joe Black

Other good ones that I like: Pulse, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Trainspotting, Memento, Akira, Nine Lives of Fritz the Cat, Heavy Metal, Requiem Of A Dream, and Jesus’s Son. Those are just a few.

  1. LOTR Trilogy
  2. Schindler’s List
  3. The Matrix Trilogy
  4. The Shining
  5. Pulp Fiction
  6. The Usual Suspects
  7. The Sixth Sense
  8. American History X
  9. Reservoir Dogs
  10. X-Files: Fight The Future

I don’t know what movie I think is the best, but to my best ten belong:

The Matrix (of course duhhh)
Day after tomorrow (although to bad for the very happy ending)
Armageddon (love that one :smile: )
American History X
Independence Day
Titanic
The Day After
The Champ (very old one, but really touching :smile: )
Sixth Sence
Artificial Intelligence

Heh, you people like a lot of natural disaster movies.

donnie darko
eternal sunshine of a spotless mind
mulholland drive
the matrix
kill bill (mainly volume 2)
pulp fiction
zoolander
pee wee’s big adventure

… other things.

I can’t really rank them in order of most favorite.

i really need to see more movies though, I have this thing where I don’t feel comfortable watching movies around other people… plus we only have good channels on one tv…

stuff i want to see
requiem for a dream
waking life
garden state
napolean dynamite
farenheight 9/11 (probably boring though)
wicker park (it looks interesting)
donnie darko director’s cut (COME TO ALL CITIES DAMMIT!)
harold and kumar go to whitecastle
the village
i know i’m forgetting something…

well the poitn is there are many movies I want to see currently playing… will i see them? I don’t think I can afford t hem, and it’s so far away to get to a good theater… I can probably do one a week during school I guess.

I didn’t really like Requiem for a Dream. The Village was really good though, holy reality.

I just like the part where the lady takes all of the uppers and freaks out. Heh, good stuff. I did not understand the end of Mulhulland Drive at all. That is mainly what made me not like the movie, is that the ending just doesn’t make sense to me. I don’t remember if I was really paying attention the whole movie though. I’m going to have to watch it again.

let’s not post (semi) spoilers in here…

i’ll explain the movie to you if you want via pm i guess, or you can just go to imdb.com and look it up, but you should see it again first if you are so inclined.

Hey Doba, what is Ichi the Killer? I have seen it in the video store many times but never checked it out.

Thanx.

What about Harry potter? I noticed no one listed his films. I thought they were great. :smile:

Hehe yeah… Harry Potter 1st and 2nd were great, but 3rd movie was DISAPPOINTING! :sad: Oh well hopefully when 4th one comes out… it would be much better than 3rd one.
