    Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
    Fight Club
    Finding Nemo
    Serenity
    And of course, The Princess Bride

    I have to agree with Shawshank, The Princess Bride and Green Mile for the more modern films and then add:

    Singing in the Rain
    American in Paris
    His Girl Friday
    Arsenic and Old Lace
    Young Frankenstein

    (Classic Movie Fan)

    By the way "The Princess Bride" was a great film but the book is MUCH Better.

    all time fav - Eat, Drink, Man, Woman - but I'll watch anything by Ang Lee
    then:
    Pride and Prejudice - 6 hour version - love most costume dramas
    Shawshank
    Dogma
    Shall We Dance - Japanese version
    Seven Samurai
    Lady and the Tramp
    and though it isn't technically a film - Planet Earth

    Oh and the best documentary ever (and funniest) Hands on a Hard Body - very hard to find now.:cry:

    The Green Mile

    Tom Hanks is such a great actor.


    Confession:


    I can't watch this movie...I absolutely love it (top 5 for sure), but I cry like a little girl the entire time it's on. I don't know what it is, but I just can't do it. :cry:

    I agree with so many of these movies...(Boondock Saints, Green Mile, Forrest Gump, Seven Samurai, Shawshank Redemption, Goonies, Serenity)


    Road to Perdition (Amazing movie)

    Man On Fire (greatest portrayal of fatherly rage I have ever seen)

    The Last Samurai (Ken Watannabe....good lord he's awesome)

    American Beauty (Truly a beautiful movie)

    Aliens (AWESOME.)

    The Empire Strikes Back (cmon, you had to know it would be on this list)

    Conan the Barbarian (To Crush you enemies, to see them driven before you, to hear the lamentations of their women!)

    Napoleon Dynamite (Tina, come get some ham!!!)

    Bubba Hotep (BRUCE CAMPBELL!!!)

    Army of Darkness (BRUCE CAMPBELL AGAIN!!!)

    Run Lola Run (german movie that ROOLS!!!)

    Das Boot (snowing 6 inches outside, but we were so into the movie we had every window open...so intense)

    Monty Python and the Search for the Holy Grail (If I went around proclaiming myself Emperor, just because some moistened bink lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!)

    Borat (I'm going to look through your treasures now gypsy...)

    300 (I swearI will have my 300 spartan body back someday...or not...)

    Iron Man (RDJ is so freakin AWESOME in this)

    My Dog Skip (another tear jerker, I loved it)

    Sin City (Another amazingly well done movie)

    Kindergarden Cop (BEST. MOVIE. EVER.)

    3 Amigos (BEST. MOVIE. EVER. PART. 2)




    Haha, sorry I got a bit out of hand. Ok, that's enough for now. :laugh:

    Ooh, you had some good ones, Sarge! :wink:
    Bubba Hotep (BRUCE CAMPBELL!!!)
    I may have to check this one out after you and Manda were talking about it...
    Army of Darkness (BRUCE CAMPBELL AGAIN!!!)
    OK - But I really prefer EVIL DEAD II to Army of Darkness. Just sayin'. :wink:
    I love how Sam Raimi has given Bruce Campbell cameos in all the Spider-Man movies.
    American Beauty (Truly a beautiful movie)
    Great film. And a good quote for all of us trying to get in shape - "I want to look good naked." :tongue:
    The Empire Strikes Back (cmon, you had to know it would be on this list)
    Yep, definitely my favorite Star Wars movie!
    Run Lola Run (german movie that ROOLS!!!)
    Ooh, good call - I may have to throw that one on my Netflix queue so I can watch it again.
    Monty Python and the Search for the Holy Grail (If I went around proclaiming myself Emperor, just because some moistened bink lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!)
    Help! Help! I'm being repressed!
    Iron Man (RDJ is so freakin AWESOME in this)
    I might not put Iron Man on my all-time fave list, but I really enjoyed it and thought RDJ was absolutely fantastic.
    Sin City (Another amazingly well done movie)
    Actually, I couldn't get into this one. I love some other comic-book style movies (like Kill Bill), but Sin City was too over-the-top even for me. Although I think being female might have something to do with it - all the women in that movie really bugged me!

    And for a different take on the traditional comic-book movie - I LOVED Batman Begins.

    And I just thought of one more...

    Spirited Away (Hiyao Miyazaki, Japanese animation)

    Batman Begins was fantastic. Dark Knight looks like it might even surpass the first. :bigsmile:
