Favorite movies of all time?

Oh yeah, Robin Hood: Men in tights is on my list too.

NOBODY SAID MEMENTO...

/ME SLAPS ALL OF EM SILLY

Another really good movie would be se7en and being John Malkovich...dunno why I liked the latter.

1. The Usual Suspects
2. The French Connection
3. The Holy TRILOGY
4. Scent of A Woman
5. Monty Python and the Holy Grail
6. The Bourne Identity
7. The Man With the Golden Gun
8. Rio Bravo
9. The Quiet Man
10. Scared Stiff
11. Topper Returns
12. The Hobbit
13. Vampire Hunter D
14. Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust
15. Willow

All I can think of for now...

Star Wars (all 5)
Face Off/Snake Yes
Indiana Jones (all 3)
Terminator I & II
Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me
Lethal Weapon (all 4)

Oh man, I knew I forgot some:

-Ringu (the original Japanese version of "The Ring")
-Inframan (don't ask)
-Perfect Blue (good anime/Hitchcockian theme marriage)
-Gladiator
-Saving Private Ryan
-Fifth Element
-Monty Python And The Quest For The Holy Grail
-Terminator movies
-The Abyss
-Sphere
-Contact
-the Gamera movies
-Vampire Hunter D (only the first one, didn't like Bloodlust)

EDIT: And Project A-Ko

I may mention me favourite anime films (again) in the near future. Project A-ko (the first movie) is still one of my favourites. Ridicilously funny with a good soundtrack and some cool fights (as well as stupid fights). Sigh! It reminds that there was a time where we fans liked it for what it was not because some punks on the net butchered it with Porn. Project a-ko is dead.

Anyways....

I have yet to see Vampire Hunter D. IIRC correctly the animators that did Fist of the north star also did the animation for Vampire Hunter D too.

guys...... the best film ever made is obviously bill and ted's bogus journey.

anyway. i'll forgive this appaling oversight and offer my list:

taxi driver
12 monkeys
requiem for a dream
american psycho
rules of attraction
natural born killers
mulholland drive
donnie darko
the vampire's kiss
scarface
the evil dead series
high plains drifter
unforgiven
naked lunch
fear and loathing in las vegas

there are undoubtably more but memory fails me.

except that Excellent Adventure was 1000 times better... Bogus Journey was alright, but it had nothing on the first one.

So many people have seen Donnie Darko now... I saw it when it was in the cinemas, and it instantly became my favourite movie. I've seen Fight Club since then though and now I can't decide which one's my fave.

Movies mentioned before that are in my top ##:

Reservoir Dogs
Big Lebowski, The
Planet of the Apes
Alien/s
2001 A Space Oddessy
Pi
Fight Club
Apocalypse Now
Pink Floyd's The Wall
A Clockwork Orange
Requiem for a Dream
Contact
12 monkeys
american psycho

Movies mentioned before that I didn't like:

Speed
True Lies
The Ring (why the hell did they had to remake that! Just like Solaris, when will hollywood learn foreign movies can be great as well...)
Brazil
Wizards
Nutty Professor
Naked Gun
Commando
Dragon Heart
Coming to America
The Mask
Twister
Godzilla (US)
6th sense

so glad to see American Psycho on there...
Ed: ever seen Reservoir Dogs, Snatch, Pulp Fiction, Trainspotting, Naked Lunch, Dawn of the Dead, Miller's Crossing, Black Hawk Down, or the Teletubbies Reunion?
okay, the last one doesn't exist. :)

Seen/own most of those.. I liked Day a lot better than Dawn (c'mon, how can you deny the greatness of Josef Pilato's acting (the captain that yells way too damn much))

Battle Royale: craziest and most immoral Jap flick ever!
Alien

Funny how I only remember these two...

since more than a few people here obviously enjoyed american psycho, what did you think of rules of attraction? it's based on another book by ellis, and even features patrick bateman's brother, sean. it's directed by roger avery, who worked on pulp fiction and killing zoe.

1.Ameracan history x.
2.Form dusk tell dawn.
3.Termanter 2
4.Ninja schroll.
5.Reavor Dogs.
6.The Mask.
7.Evil Dead seres.
8.Twilight of the dark master.
9.Predater 1
10.The Alines movies.
11.The thing.
12.The gost and the darkness.

Thats all I can think of right now.

it is Mary Harron who makes AmericanPsycho so good. I doubt rules of attraction could be close to it....

actually, i'd say it's probably bret easton ellis who made it so good, since he wrote the thing.

Have you even seen the movie? Do you even know what you are talking about? Do you even know who she is?
The movie is 10x what the book is.

The whole cainsaw part was one fo the best moive senes ever. But wouldent people in the apartments notice a naked dude,coved in blood screaming with chainsaw?

there is no need to be impolite. yes, i've seen the movie. it's pretty great. it's on my list, you may note. really, the film is, for the most part (though obviously many things had to be removed due to time constraints), very faithful to the book, and i admire ms. hannon's preservation of the integrity of the novel. anyway, this discussion is probably now far enough away from the intended topic to be considered thread rot. if you want to discuss it further, feel free to pm me.

American History X, Fight Club, and a whole bunch of documeteries i cant pick which one - im not even gonna try to name em all

pregnant: sorry. I'm just a loser with a keyboard. I'm glad someone else appreciates the movie.
Demons Hand: You do know that part is all in his mind, right?
Kain: I think of him when I look up in the night sky. :P

oops I forgot Crouching Tiger. I loved that film.

Well.. In no particular order.. Except in the case of The Terminator.

The Terminator
Terminator 2: Judgement Day
The Transformers
The Lion King
Aladdin
Ghostbusters
Gremlins
The Wizard
The Empire Strikes Back
Spider Man
Batman
Aliens
Alien Ressurrection (Until the end with the hybrid)
