Like the "what's your worst movie" thread, but opposite.  What's your favorite movie (s) and why?

This Thread may contain Spoilers.  Be advised

So... fire away  It doesn't have to be a 'hollywood' movie either, and it has no requirements like black and white, color, old movie, new movie, etc.  just fire away  This should be interesting, and since a lot of us share the same opinions on movies, if you recommend a movie it's very probable that i'll go rent it and watch it!

let's do this:

(i can't think of any offhand )

[demon442]

Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 is pretty good...

I can't think of any others off the top of my head...

[Stealth]

I remembered some

Some good movies:

• Sphere
  
• Behind Enemy Lines  (I just liked this movie... )
  
• Blade of Fury (it's an Asian movie, you probably haven't heard of it)
  
• TombstoneWith Val Kilmer and Kurt Russel... one of my favorites)
  
• The Mummy/The Mummy Returns (even though some parts were incredibly cheesy and totally non-scary, i liked them)
  
• X-Men (great)
  
• Bad Company (pretty new movie, but incredibly cool)
  
• Mission: Impossible (1 and 2) (lol )
  
• Spiderman
  

can't think of any others offhand.  How about some of yours?

Well, besides the SW Trilogy, my favorite movie is definitely Memento, by Christopher Nolan. Rent it. It's gooood.

[Stealth]

Memento... cool.

The One with Jet Li was actually a pretty good movie...

I have only seen a couple of movies, but out of those i would say that Tora! Tora! Tora! is by far the best and a shining example of what a movie should be like.

Queen Of The Damned (vampires and action)
Scorpion King (action and purdy lady)

i honestly, truly thinks Star Trek Movie sucks. And anon: how can u like The One.  That's like on of the lamest movies ever created in the whole of mankind.

I can't believe i forgot Terminator 2 and Shrek.

How come no one mentioned Austin Powers and Men in Black (the first one of course)

Jet.....Li.......kicks........ass!

And besides the film could've been made from old StarTrek outakes and photos of Joan Collins the final scene would still make it s kick-ass movie.

"No. You are my *****. You are all my *****es."
*gets mobbed by like 400 people and kicks all their asses*

[Megadude]

Jet Li may kick ass (as a matter of fact he does), but that doesn't mean the movie does.

[Solid Snake]

ah hem.  Escape from New York! Escape from L.A.!
thats the good stuff.
Resident Evil, and Final Fantasy are also incredibly good. oh yeah.

[Megadude]

Also Dumn and Dumber

[Knight Templar]

All Star Wars Movies
All James Bond
Aladin
Austin Powers 1, 2, and 3
Black Hawk Down
Bad Company was cool too, anthony hopkins was a pimp
Newer Jackie Chan Movies rule
MIB
Star Trek First Contact
All i can think of... i think...


And Waynes World!!

Don't Forget Terminator 1 and 2

oooo and Resident Evil, jus saw that one. Some bad effects (the hunters sucked , claymation looks better) but good movie.

And Blue Crush looks to be a nice one

[Gortef]

Princess Mononoke
Lion King
Matrix
Dragonheart
Final Fantasy - TSW
Resident Evil
The Mummy/Mymmy Returns (I liked these... they had good humour)
Taxi1/Taxi
Rush Hour
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon

For Example...

[Stryke 9]

Fight Club was all right, it was highly entertaining bull****. Hmm... Ghost Dog was pretty good (Come on, who saw Ghost Dog and didn't like it?)... Dr. Strangelove even more so (that shot with the pilot riding the nuke down to the Russian missile silo was, in my opinion, the greatest scene that ever was or will be made)... I don't know.

[NeoHunter]

My favourite movies are:

Star Wars Trilogy including the prequels

Starship Troopers

All the Star Trek movies so far...still waiting for Nemesis. (Looks like it will be a great movie too!)

Matrix

Die Hard series

Spiderman

...and some others movies which hI have forgotten the title to.

I'm looking forward to some other movies too. Shanghai Knights (because a very pretty Singaporean actress will be acting in it), Terminator 3, The Incredible Hulk, and some other rumors like Batman VS Superman.
