Hey, I like movies too...

What are everyone's favorite movies? I'm kind of a big movie buff too (yeah, I know, I live a doubly vicarious life), and I was just interested.

Some of my favorites off the top of my head: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Once Upon a Time in the West, Lawrence of Arabia, Bottle Rocket, Vertigo, Touch of Evil, Alien, Blade Runner, Hud, Heat, Almost Famous, Sideways, Bringing Out the Dead, The Empire Strikes Back, The Bridge on the River Kwai, Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex but Were Afraid to Ask, Sleeper, Annie Hall, Jackie Brown, The Godfather and GoodFellas

Yeah but the documentary has Bob Saget talking like this:

Yeah, I think Saget may have had the best bit in that movie. And the mime, I thought he was pretty funny. I would have loved to see Robin Williams take a crack at it.

Speaking of Saget, do any of you all watch Entourage? He had one of the funniest cameos I've ever seen on that show... and that show has had a lot of great cameos.

Sin City was a bit brilliant to be fair. Anybody a fan of that?

I'm not really a man of films although Film4 has just become a free channel here, so that'll probabaly make me watch some more. I've been a bit dissapointed with it so far though, it's been on for a week (counting this morning) and they've already started repeating films. Pah!

I must say Haarry I'm not a big fan of the Clockwork Orange film. Don't get me wrong, it's good, but our English teacher at school made the whole class read the book and then write essays about it. When I finally got round to seeing the film I think having read the book in such detail put me off.. if you get me? I expected the same to happen with Brighton Rock although the film version I seen was from the 1940's and it was fantastich.

Oh, another film that's brilliant is 1984 (the one that was filmed in 1984). Everyone should see that version if they get a chance.

Sin city was cool. It had probably the worst one liners ever though, that made it more amusing. It was done so cooly.

I'm a big fan of the burgess novel, and had read it before seeing the movie. I really liked the adaption, it was true to the book, but still stood up on it's own. Besides Kubrick is the best.

Trainspotting, The Shawshank Redemption, The Pianist, Life is Beautiful, Requiem for A Dream, Kill Bill, Pi, Life of Brian, The Big Lebowski, Full Metal Jacket, Pulp Fiction, O Brother Where Art Thou

I don't like comedies. At least not normal ones. I enjoy the Coen Brothers very much!

Sin City had bad one liners because the comics have bad one liners. Most of the dialogue came directly out of those. It's very reminiscent of film noirs and seedy detective stories.

tmills - I agree, it was pretty disapointing that he didn't actually get to do the joke. Sarah Silverman was pretty awesome too.

Oh yeah, she was hysterical as always. I've been meaning to rent that comedy special Jesus Is Magic. I see you're a fan of it.

I want to ask any of you who listed Kill Bill:

What is there to like about that movie? i don't get it.
Was it just cause tarantino directed it and he directed Pulp fiction which ruled? cause that's the only good thing i could say about it.

The second Kill Bill was great. Fans of director Sergio Leone will know why - Tarantino makes it exactly like a Leone western.

I didn't like the first one as much.

Wow! Not only do people in this group have great taste in music but also movies.

Some of my favourites:
Deer Hunter, The Godfather, Pulp Fiction, Goodfellas, Leon, Fight Club, The Holy Grail, Apocalypse Now

p.s. I though Kill Bill 2 was very dull - though I somehow managed to see it without seeing the first one. Maybe that was the problem?

THE BIG LEBOWSKI!

Also, I love The Royal Tenenbaums, Pulp Fiction, O Brother Where Art Thou?, Amelie, Apocalypse Now, and everything Pixar, among others.

I find that my favorites fall into two catagories: offbeat, non-slapstick comedies or reflective drama/action flicks.

Fight Club, Clockwork Orange, Bottle Rocket, Lost in Translation, Mulholland Drive, Scarface and the Godfather are high on my must see list. I've got a lot of holes in my movie watchings.

You can probably skip Fight Club and Scarface (in my opinion), but the rest are all really great. Everybody I know despises Mullholand Drive, but I really loved it.

Bottle Rocket is hilarious. It's the first Owen Wilson/Wes Andersen full-length film, and it had me laughing my ass off.

Bottle Rocket is one of my all time favorites. It's one of those movies I can watch again and again. I definitely think Wes Anderson has yet to top it.

I love Bob Maplethorpe - I wish the guy who played him was in more movies.

Hahah, yeah they have some great scenes together. The resemblance between his brother and my stepbrother (personality-wise) is uncanny. Did you know that the guy who plays his older brother is Owen and Luke's brother in real life?

For someone who doesn't like comedies you included a shitload of funny movies. I mean for god's sake one of the movies on there is a monty python flick. How could you say you don't like comedy? I think someone's in denial :D.
