Happy Gillmore is a classic, still laugh everytime I see it.

Love the Lord of the Ring trilogy, must have watched the extended versions a few times now.
 
In no real order:

Back To The Future Trilogy
The Blues Brothers
Shawshank Redemption
Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy

always enjoy a cheesy action movie too, but would never buy one, just wait for ITV to re-show them.
 
All time favorite
Star wars IV very much ahead of its time when it was released
Star wars V & VI good follow ups
Can't really rave about I II & III but not bad Prequals

Matrix is pretty good too.

Top gun for the sound effects as well

 
OK....your gonna laugh i know....but my all time favourite film is........Dirty dancing....just love it.......xx
 
For me the favourite is Highlander, just love it and the soundtrack :thumbs:
Closely followed by The Italian Job(orig version) and Zulu, could watch em for hours :D
 
For me, Deliverance with Jon Voight and Burt Reynolds.
For the way it starts off as an innocent trip on the river to something a bit more terrifying than the rapids. and of course this,

I have a list of movies I really enjoy, and a clear favourite. A film I never watch so I don't spoil it by over watching it. When I choose to rewatch it I want it to be as fresh as the day I saw it. I haven't seen it in about 4 years now. I haven't seen it since I became a photographer in fact. The film is Amélie. "Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain" The cinematography is beautiful. There's a red and green theme running through the film. Its simply an inspiring film that reminds you to look at clouds.
 
Amelie! lovely film :)
 
Agree about Amelie :)
I like all sorts of films but my all time favourite is Seven Samurai brilliant
Just watched Black Hawk Down excellent action film
I know its not a film but I'm watching Firefly the series at the mo really good

Whats your favourite movie? - is such a hard question to answer. There are so many films that I love, picking one is almost impossible.

Today I have decided to say:

Mean Streets

Total Classic. First Scorsese/De Niro combo. Hervey Keitel in there as well, a fantastic film. The spawn of a genre, its style imitated in films made even to this day. Love it


Saying that, I did watch an Australia film called 'Kenny' the other day. It made me laugh so hard I nearly threw up.
