View Full Version : New 10 favorite movies

About six/seven months ago (or something like that) there was a thread started asking everyone's favorite movies. Well, mine changed since then. If your top ten movies of all time changed, or you never posted them, post them now! Here is my revised list:

Fistful of Dollars
Star Wars (pretend none of the other Star Wars movies exist)
The Matrix
Dirty Harry
Casablanca
Pulp Fiction
Life is Beautiful
Citizen Kane
It's a wonderful Life
The Life of Brian

Honorable Mention:
Dumb and Dumber. One of the funniest and most well-written comedies I've seen.

Scarface. Just great gritty pure testosterone. Didn't make the list because there's little to make me like Tony.

Braveheart. Got knocked off the list probably because I haven't seen it in a while and looking back on it...it's not as great as the others.

Back to the Future. In a time when movies SUCKED (the 80s) this gem stands out.

The Godfather. Again, haven't seen it in a while and sort of lost my passion for it.

College. I have never desired to see a silent film in my life, but when I saw this it made me laugh the entire time...except for one scene that went on like 5 minutes too long. Definitely watch it if you ever can.

...I haven't seen The French Connection or Easy Riders, but based on what I've heard, they sound like my kind of movies...so much to watch. So little time.

For reference, that original thread was here (http://www.indietalk.com/showthread.php?t=3900).

It will be interesting to see what (if anything) has changed.

Back then I said...


1 ) Moulin Rouge.
2 ) The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover.
3 ) Star Wars: A New Hope (Should have stopped right there, in '77)
4 ) Babbette's Feast
5 ) Schindler's List
6 ) Ed Wood
7 ) The Manchurian Candidate (original version)
8 ) Twelve Angry Men
9 ) Judgement At Nuremburg.
10 ) The Rocky Horror Picture Show :shock:

I'm not really sure how I could update that... but I'll think about it, over the weekend. :cool:

I think we should start listing our top 10 "guilty pleasures" movies. You know, those movies we can't get enough of, but are embarassed to tell anyone else that we like them.

Example:

) Maximum Overdrive
) Beavis & Butthead 6 DVD set
) Aqua Teen Hunger Force (All 3 Seasons)
) Any Godzilla film pre 1980's

:haha: ...the list goes on.

7. Snatch
8. Dumb and Dumber
9. Army Of Darkness
10. Kill Bill Vol. 1

Other Movies That Deserve To Be Mentioned
Bubba Ho-Tep--Resevoir Dogs--Killer Klowns from Outer Space--The Toxic Avenger--
Spidey 2--Man on the Moon--Monty Python and the Holy Grail--The Nutty Professor (orginal)
--Sin City--Office Space--Space Balls--Ghost World and much more that I can't think of right now

I love you Bruff... but Killer Klowns was the WORST movie I've ever seen. I hate you for mentioning it. But since I loved you before I hated you, it's all good.

Evil Dead 2 is the BEST movie ever. Makes Speilburg, Kubrick and Lucas look like children!
(lol- just kidding, but I love the style, the grit, the cheese... it's my kinda stuff!)

Anyone ever see the movie Gerry

Yeah, by accident.

Although the landscape cinematography was beautiful, the film was hell to sit through. Even the behind the scenes doc was tedious.

I imagine you enjoyed it since you have mentioned it in this thread, I would be curious to know why.

'tis a cryin' shame...

I think we should start listing our top 10 "guilty pleasures" movies. You know, those movies we can't get enough of, but are embarassed to tell anyone else that we like them.

Sudden Death with Jean Claude Van Dang. A Canadian exprofessional hockey player turned fire-fighter finds himself the only man at the stanley cup (tied series, 6-6) who is aware that the Vice President is being held hostage and the building is wired to blow, if money is not delivered by the time the game is over. It goes into sudden death (overtime, where first score wins) and the heat is on. Definetly not a bad movie for a Van Dang flick. :)

Nique Zoolio
05-28-2005, 07:55 AM
superb idea mrde50!speaking of the Van Man - how about we consider for guilty pleasures the Tsui Hark flick Knock-Off.
A Hong Kong fashion designer (Jean Claude Van Damme, if you can believe that billing) who had previously been involved in knock offs of major label merchandise, such as "Pumma" running shoes, attempts to go straight with the help of his new partner (Rob Schneider), who is secretly an undercover CIA agent involved in an investigation of the black market. Their new products, jeans shipped in by the boatful, are of course all the rage in mid 90s consumer Hong Kong. However, little does our Claude know that deep inside each of his counterfeit jeans is a bomb. And it will go off the second that the zips go below the appropriate level. BOOM. Jean has to run around Hong Kong putting his hand in places no hands should go. Amazing.

Nique Zoolio
05-28-2005, 08:02 AM
ok, ok - the zip part is made up. but the rest of it is 100% for real.
van damme must have had such a great life back then. can you imagine your agents getting these and saying 'yeah, jean, this is the one!'
what a life.

I imagine you enjoyed it since you have mentioned it in this thread, I would be curious to know why.

The movie Gerry (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0302674/combined)

I mentioned it to see if anyone else had an opinion on this movie because I watched it TWICE (unbelievable but true) and I still don’t know if I like it … is this movie truly brilliant or just about the worst movie ever made?

I’ve given a few people the “Gerry Challenge” – I let them borrow the DVD with specific instructions that when they watch it they have to watch the entire movie completely through without stopping, pausing, or any outside distractions. Preferably you watch the movie by yourself but if you do watch it with someone, don’t talk during the movie. I’ve found that most people find this movie to be like an unpleasant but rewarding task … you hate going through it but once it’s over you have a feeling of accomplishment.

**Here Be Spoilers** (if that is possible with this movie)

PROS:
-The cinematography in this movie was great but take away shots of the desert scenery and the movie would have only been about 3 minutes long instead of 103.

- Because the movie was so long with absolutely nothing happening I think the movie did a great job of giving you the feeling of boredom and hopelessness of being lost in the desert. Although the movie could have been edited down to 3 minutes without cutting any dialogue or “plot” it wouldn’t have had the same affect. Some of the shots in this movie were so long that I would go thorough a full range of emotions … I start off curious about what was happening to boredom because nothing was happening to angry because still nothing was happening and then finally I would just start laughing because the shot just seemed to never end and I couldn’t believe I was still watching it and then – nothing would happen!

-What other movie gives you great lines like “shirt basket” and “dirt mattress”

CONS:
- *See Pros…

UprightCitizen
05-31-2005, 09:48 PM
I agree with you. I remember watching Gerry one day when I was bored at home, thinking, "Hey, I'll watch a movie, that won't be boring."

Oh boy, was I in for a surprise!

I have to agree with you completely though, after I watched the entire movie through, I felt like I had accomplished something, and I personally ended up liking it. I don't know if I would watch it a second time though!

Props to you for sitting through it again after know what it's like! ;)

...I was watching Henry's Corner on IFC and Michael Madsen was on. I got the impression that there is a Sin City sequel in the works. Which is good if they don't rush it and actually have a story to present. I'm all about going to see it. But we all know that a good idea can be killed ie- Matrix:Revolutions (that's 3, right?). Geez, just watch the first Matrix and leave it at that

No particular order, and of course the list changes depending upon mood:

1. Raiders of the Lost Ark (for pure entertainment value)
2. Manhatten
3. Casablanca
4. Waiting for Guffman
5. Blue Velvet
6. The Godfathers, I & II
7. The English Patient
8. Groundhog Day
9. Psycho
9. His Girl Friday

Here are other interesting ways to pull these surveys:

Top three films by genre? (1. Comedey 2. Drama 3. Horror 4. Blockbuster 5. Indie/Small film) or my favorite, Top 3 films by decade. You see some interesting patterns that way, doesn't it seem harder to pick from the 80's than the 70's?

Lilith

Here's a list of film I've watched on DVD this year that I've enjoyed, and all are non-Hollywood films, you can get them at www.yesasia.com but some are not Region 1 coded, so you either need an all region dvd player or you find a combination of commands for your current dvd player to make it all region - yes, that's possible, more info about dvd player stand alone info can be found at www.vcdhelp.com


- 2046, the lost memory (interesting twist movie - Korean, available at Hollywood Video)
- Kung Fu Hustle (no need to write anything here)
- New Police Story (Jackie Chan's latest, more drama than comedy based, soon to be released by Miramax in US)
- DragonBlade (HK animated movie)
- Ong Bak (Thai's film with Tony Jaa)
- Born to Fight (I believed this is Tony's 2nd)
- House of Fury (Stephen Fund's 2nd directorial film - produced by Jackie Chan's company)

About six/seven months ago (or something like that) there was a thread started asking everyone's favorite movies. Well, mine changed since then. If your top ten movies of all time changed, or you never posted them, post them now! Here is my revised list:


Star Wars (pretend none of the other Star Wars movies exist)
.

I hope by that you mean teh first three and not Empire?
