Your Favorite Movies...(I Know I know)

[bRyaN]

After witnessing much debate over the Matrix movies, how good/bad it was...a persons taste in cinema can definately affect how they enjoy movies...

Some people have gone on to say that Matrix: Reloaded was the worst movie they ever saw...slight exaggeration? maybe, but I would like to see what are your favorite movies/or most hated...no particualr order or genre is necessary...


LOTR:Fellowship of the Ring
LOTR:Two Towers
LOTR:Return of the King-Hasn't been released but there are some things you just know..
Matrix
Matrix:Reloaded
Matrix:Revolutions
Fight Club
Gladiator
Braveheart
Spiderman
Memento
Kill Bill
Reservoir Dogs
Pulp Fiction
13th Warrior
Brotherhood of the Wolf
Minority Report
The Recruit
Scarface
The Godfather
Boondock Saints
Underworld-could've been better in some parts
The Rundown-Suprisingly very entertaining
Bourne Identity

Many many more...

[Payback]

How can you think the 13th warrior was good?

And Boondock Saints isn't really that good either, it just has kick ass action scenes and Willem Dafoe (which was the only reason I bought it on dvd :D).

Star Wars ep. IV, V, VI.
Le Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain
Alien
Aliens
Blade Runner
Donnie Darko

[al-x]

everything Kubrick...

Best so far this year is either Pirates of the Caribbean or Ang Lee's Hulk (the best comic movie since Tim Burtons first Batman movie). Tim Burton's movies are really good also, but his Planet of the Apes was a dissapointment.

But there are way to many great movies out there to list them all here (though most movies that you see today is crap)

aahh... Blade Runner is the best sci-fi movie ever (directors cut, that is)

donnie darko
requiem for a dream
fear and loathing in las vegas
