Blade Runner is still my #1.



Lord of the Rings movies comes in at a close second (except for that lame part where Legolas "snowboards" down the flight of stairs at Helms Deep.



I still love the first 2 Star Wars films.



Gotta love Human Traffic!



Raising Arizona is Nicholas Cage's best movie ever.



Saving Private Ryan (a movie I shouldn't have seen first thing after having a baby)



All Quiet on the Western Front is still awesome.



Fantasia, the first one.



And... craploads more: Orgazmo, Amelie, City of Lost Children, 12 Monkeys, 5th Element (it's very cheesy and stupid, but it looks like Blad Runner on ecstasy), Delicatessan, Breakfast At Tiffany's, Roman Holiday, My Fair Lady (yes I do love Audrey Hepburn)

aye, Empire's "I am you father" twist and depressing ending set a fabulous precedent that nothing has really matched since.



I really enjoyed The Balrog and its effects in the Lord of the Rings. The war of the Ents was cool too.



5th element is hilarious. There's even a mistake in the movie, where the priest answers the door "Mr. Willis" and he's corrected, "It's Dallas."



Forgot About All Quiet on the Western Front. Watched that with Ben Kingsley's Ghandi in freshman social studies class, and both kicked ass.



And as far as war movies go, Band of Brothers is top notch.

Yeah, The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones are amazing!!!! Can't believe the series degenerates into a soap opera about a whiny farmboy and his incestuous relationship with his sister. Sheesh! :D

Yeah, Band of Brothers is a great series, really engaging and gritty and emotional. It puts you right in the action.



It's sometimes hard watching war movies especially nowadays, though. The news takes care of that. :/



I also dig the sci fi horror flicks like Alien and Aliens and Event Horizon. Also like the cheesy horror flicks along with the genuine creepy classics like Amityville Horror and Excorcist.



My fave horror flick is Se7en. When the movie first came to rent, we were living with our friend Todd who worked strange late night hours delivering pizzas. Well, we rented Se7en and left it in the vcr knowing full well he's the type of person that will watch whatever is in the vcr, no matter what movie it is. So we wake up the next morning to get ready for work, and Todd is sitting on the couch huddled in a blanket and frantically sipping a cup of coffee. "Goddamn you two," he says. "I watched that fuckin movie when I got home from work and I haven't been able to sleep all night!!"



(Is the forum slower than f*ck this evening, or is it my end?)

I'd been holding off making my list, but here goes in no particular order (and keeping it to one movie per director....well, trying to...)......



Trainspotting

Empire Strikes Back

Blue Velvet

Aliens The Living Daylights

Jerry Maguire (ugh, I know, sappy Cameron Crowe crap, but once I watch a couple minutes I'm hooked for the duration..... although Vanilla Sky comes close behind: I cried the last time I watched it)

Seven (ooh, but to pick it over Fight Club......)

Blade Runner

Eyes Wide Shut (or The Shining ... or anything by Kubrick that I've seen, honestly)

The Big Lebowski

Heat

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Unforgiven

Wall Street

Das Boot



That's a good start, I guess......

My fave horror flick is Se7en.

sloth: with the hundreds of pine tree air fresheners an the living victim is still a vivid movie memory. envy and wrath at the end was an amazing combo too.



fight club is awfully impressive too with its cineamatography and direction. fincher always makes a solid flick. and don't forget the dust brothers.

1997! it does not seem that long ago, i was about the same age then too. it was a bit Scary

Anyone here seen the movie Pi?

Yeah, I saw some of Pi when it first came out to rent.



I know it sounds terrible, but I fell asleep a half hour into the film - in my defense I have a couch that induces narcolepsy and if I'm even remotely tired going into a film, chances are I'll be out like a light before the film's finished.



I've heard nothing but good things about the movie, so maybe one day I'll rent it and watch the whole thing through next time.

I've seen the first half and quite liked it, but had to go out so missed the rest. Aronofsky is a great director, as I quite liked Requiem, so...
