Thread: What are your favourite movies?

People that say movies aren't an art form needs to wake up. Also, while it's true that movies based on a book fall flat more often than not, movies in themselves can portray emotion and circumstance that engages your mind in a whole other way. So, I'll start with a few of my favourites!

The Royal Tennenbaums
The Life Aquatic
Pulp Fiction
2001: A Space Odyssey
Papillon
Iron Man
Sideways
Forrest Gump
Robocop
Contact
Close Encounters of The Third Kind
The Incredibles
Four Rooms
Kill Bill 1&2

You should see these. I’m not saying you will like them, but you should see them.

Primer

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primer_(film)




I apologize in advance, for both.

Too many to mention. My favorite movies of this year are The Dark Knight and The Iron Man.

Now, to demonstrate my age:

Duck Soup - Without the Marx Brothers there would have been no Goons, no MontyPython.

Casablanca - Bogart at his best. A shoestring budget. A rushed production. An incisive script. A total masterpiece. (Small time gambler: "You despise me don't you Rick?" Bogart: "I suppose I would if I ever thought about it.")

Citizen Kane - Orson Welles invented modern cinema with this film. (While that is true I've only really put this in because every amateur cinema buff is meant to declare this the greatest film ever made.)

Zulu - The sound of Men of Harlech sung by the hundred odd Welshmen of the 24th Regiment of Foot, slowly swelling to overpower the chanting and drumbeats of the 4,000 beseiging Zulu's is a masterpiece of cinematic metaphor.

My Fair Lady - Perfection in every regard.

The Lord of the Rings - the most accurate and the most sincere transfer of book to screen ever. (But I missed Tom Bombadil and they should have made it longer.)

A Hard Day's Night - It captures Beatlemania and my teenage years to perfection.

Saving Private Ryan - Without meaning to be nasty there are times I am glad John Wayne is dead. Unfortunately we still have Stallone.

I could go on. I shan't. Most recently watched film. I watched two last night and have no idea what they were. I enjoyed Wild Hogs at the weekend.

Ever watch Bridge over the river Kwai, Incredible lightness of being, Papillon, Ben Hur, Little big man and Das Boot?

Any western with Clint Eastwood with stubble and spitting baccy........

makes the back of my knees go weak for some odd reason

And Jack Nicholson......mmm....it's that wicked 'I'm up to mischief' look he's got.

Johnny Depp.........gulp....I've come over all funny....s'cuze me

This day and age it almost seems easier to classify movies by their directors rather than listing off 10 movies directed by the same guy. So I'll say:
I love Tim Burton movies.

"Brazil".


("We're all in this, together")






("Then, tomorrow was another day,
The morning found me miles away,
With still a million things to say...
Now, when twilight dims the sky above
Recalling thrills of our love,
There’s one thing I’m certain of
Return I will to old Brazil")

Some good new movies I've seen recently:

The Children of Huang Shi
Mongol
Hancock
W.A.L.L - E

aww! Full Metal Alchemist (series and the movie(FMA:Conqueror of Shamballa)) -- REALLY GR8! xD

there are so many...

AI: Artificial Intelligence
Big Fish
Man On Fire
Minority Report
Pan's Labyrinth
Thank You For Smoking
V For Vendetta

My all time favourites but I haven't found a film I have not liked yet :-D

Anyone who doesn't say Cloverfield obviously hasn't seen it or is wrong. Clearly.

Resident Evil(1-3) movies (I'm yet to see the 3rd one, but it's already on download xD )

Recently saw Miyazaki's "Howl's Moving Castle". Not quite the perfection of his earlier "Spirited Away", but still vastly superior to any other fantasy (live action or animated) I've seen. Highly recommended. The man's a genius (and I have forgiven Disney any number of horrors for its vision in dubbing and releasing these films in the West).

Agreed! They shouldn't have let Pretty Boy's vanity off so easily.

Miyazaki's Grave of the Fireflies had me blubbering hard at the end, which is unique. Uncomfortably, it and Totoro first showed as a double bill. So millions of small children took that in. I consider it a cultural item everybody must experience, like every kid must lose a game of Monopoly or see Charlie Chaplin eat a boiled boot in The Gold Rush.

Silent films lately. My favorite so far: Buster Keaton's The General. It isn't necessary. It's just a fun movie.

I also thoroughly enjoyed Spirited Away. I love the weirdness and artiness of it.

Two other movies:

"Burn After Reading" - Coen brother’s movie. Really great performances by some of my favourite actors. Frances McDormand just always nail her roles. Original and funny, but also a revealing look at society and the human condition.

"Mirrormask" - stop-motion animation masterpiece!

Anyone else watch these?

I'll rent Mirrormask for my son, at your cue Kalster. We're getting into stop-motion 'w Lego.

To my utter shame (and NO reflection on the film) I fell asleep half way through it. My god-daughter's mum (who was my 'date' for the night, daddy doing the baby-sitting) has sworn never to take me to a film again - I was actually snoring.

The bits I did see, though, were really good fun!

Baby (2008)

Whistle Down The Wind with Hayley Mills

I love the movie My Cousin Vinny It's relatively old, but hilarious! Always makes me laugh!

I saw Fargo last night. Distilled genius.

I watched Bound (1996) Directed by Andy Wachowski a neo-noir crime thriller with some lesbian action..... :-D

's a good film!

Gods Must Be Crazy I & II - So so funny...

Serenity - one of my all-time favourite films.

tritai =) =) =) what's your favorite scene? I love it when train passes his motel at 5 am every freakin morning !!! rofl...im literally dying @ that scene.

Just finished watching a great indie movie written, directed and starring Marianna Palka with Jason Ritter, called Good Dick. Very original and subtle, great performances and very engaging. Not a crowd pleaser, but some people in the crowd will absolutely love it.

I can't believe no-one mentionned The Shawshank Redemption

My favorite movies are...
Lost in Translation (#1!!!)
Watership Down (#2)
and in no particular order
In Good Company, Ratatouille, Harold and Maude

Honorable mention going to...
House of Sand and Fog, Gattaca, Juno, and the Prince of Egypt. And pretty much all Pixar films, especially Up.

Watership Down truly is a stunning adaptation of the book. In general I like easy-going films.

My favourite movie are:

1. The Matrix movies
2. American History X
3. Fight Club

1 and 2 are basically a tie though.

Matrix because it is so out there and gets you thinking.
American History X because it shows the negative aspects of gangs and racism.
Fight Club...2 hot actors and a great plot...and a big surprise at the end.

The Blue Butterfly
A.I.
E.T.
The butterfly effect (but only the first part)
Moulen Rouge
Phantom of the opera

And many, many more (^_^)

I love:

The Painted Veil
Book of Love
Twilight
Wild Child
13 going on 30
The Rebound
The Devil Wears Prada
Enchanted
Jersey Girl
The Waiting City
Atonement

I am passionate about all genres of movies and often spend lots of my precious time in watching them.

my favorite movie are

Wanted
Fight Club
SALT
Prince of Persia
Terminator
Fast and Furious
Casino Royal
Hollow man

The Godfather Parts 1 and 2 (not 3)
Groundhog Day
The Asphalt Jungle

Hang Em High
Throne of Blood
The Searchers
The Blue Angel (German Version)
Seven Samurai
Once Upon a Time in the West

Christmas is on the way so it has to be " Bad Santa " it is a very politically incorrect film.

Bad Santa (2003) - IMDb

i watch lots of movies but "Lord of the Rings series" & "Terminator series" are my Favorite.

Once upon a time in the West

Absolutely brilliant, timeless classic, from the visuals to the actors to the soundtrack. Highly recommended, even for someone not into Westerns.

4 off the top of my head.

Forbidden Planet
The Day the Earth Stood Still
War of the Worlds (1950's version)
Ice Station Zebra

Fritz the Cat

Not to be missed on any such list

The Space Odyssee Movies
Space:1999 ( stupid, I know )

Ice Station Zebra

I can understand the first three - Forbidden Planet would be in my Top Fifty - but seriously Wayne, Ice Station Zebra! The only endearing thing in the movie is Patrick McGooghans line (I peraphrase) "We have to recover the device for our German scientists before the Russians recover it for their German scientists."

Der Untergang (Downfall). A German movie with English subtitles about the last days of Hitler. Completely brilliant.

It was pretty emotional in a way to see some of the story from the perspective of Hitler's secretary Traudl Junge. I had watched the whole World at War series narrated by Laurence Olivier and there were several bits of an interview with Traudl Junge interspersed in the series. The series was made in '73. The emotional bit was seeing a few words by Traudl Junge at the end of Downfall as an old lady shortly before her death. Great movie.

And of course Sin City.
For some reason the last sentence always stuck in my head : "An old man dies. A young girl lives. Fair trade."

One I forgot to mention...
12 Angry Men

Originally Posted by MeteorWayne

The one with George C Scott?

No, No George C Scott
1957: Martin Balsam, Lee J Cobb, E G Marshall, Jack Klugman, Henry Fonda, Ed Begley, et al... What a great cast, and a taut, tense, one camera drama.

Haven't seen that version before. The 1997 version was pretty good as well, directed by William Friedkin and also with a great cast, including Jack Lemmon, George C. Scott, Tony Danza, Edward James Olmos, James Gandolfini, Armin Mueller-Stahl, William Petersen.

It pales in comparison to the 1957 version... but I almost always prefer the classics.

Worth renting or streaming if you can, IMHO.

There is absolutely no comparison between the two. The first version was as near perfection as cinema can be. Attempting a remake was ludicrous. Since it is such a well constructed and powerful story the remake is a good film, but the original was a great film.

Trainspotting
Ladri di Biciclette
Aguirre, the Wrath of God
Un Prophete
Fitzcarraldo
Insurgentes
Office Space
We Live in Public
Uganda Rising
Poltergeist

Edit: Also the Commitments, I always forget the name of it.

Wow, I thought the 1997 version was great, so the original must be brilliant after two such glowing recommendations. I'll definitely try to get my hands on it!

It is one of those few films that if I run across it on one of the film channels I just sit and watch it again. I just hope I haven't oversold it to you, like taking someone to ones favourite restaurant and they get food poisoning.

I won't get my hopes too high up. I am not used to movies from that era, but I have watched a few and liked them, with people like Buster Keaton and Micky Roony. One thing though is that the kind of acting style from that era I have always found to be a bit put on and not as believable as some great modern films, though I do respect Peter Fonda. I am quite a bit younger than you guys after all. Still looking forward to it. I did enjoy Bridge Over the River Kwai a lot.

Agreed John. Whatever my plans were for that time, I stop and watch transfixed.

Yeah that's the one. The movie is great though.

Your choices are impecable, I find it hard to disagree with any of them

Red Wall (4+hr version) (foreign)
Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man (also most recently watched) (corny action "You shot me Harley... I can't believe you shot me."
Wag the Dog and War Inc. (If you haven't you should)
13th Warrior
Troy (the fight between Achilles and Hector)
Serenity (Joss Whedon)
The Dark Crystal (puppets... YEEAAAH)
7 Samurai
Battle Beyond the Stars (7 Samurai sci-fi)

Most of my favs have already been mentioned. I really liked Masterpiece theaters rendition of "Any Human Heart". The only romance film I've ever liked was "Before Sunset" because it felt real as opposed to a fairy tale.

silent running

Thank you, sculptor, thank you!

I'd been trying to think of the name of that film.

Thats the one with the ships in space carrying the forest domes right? I could not remember the name either.

That was good, but not as good as Before Sunrise, the first one that came out in 1995.
