When he said your favourite films, i didn't think that meant a list of all the films which came to mind neverworlder :D J/K

Anyway i like:
Star wars IV,V,VI (But not that ***** excuse for a movie episode 1)
All Monty Python Movies
Commando (The funniest action movie ever)
Matrix
Star Trek 6
Hackers (I think)

and proabably lots others, but I cant remember them

Aliens
Das Boot
Platoon
Saving Private Ryan
Conan The Barbarian

And others that dont come to my mind right now.

Er...

dragonheart
Gone in 60 seconds
the man who would be king
dead poets society
Lethal weapon (any)
Lock, Stock ATSB

Believe me: The list was longer. I had to edit it down. What can I say, I like movies. And, no offense, these little lists that have the same few movies (Matrix, SW, etc.) bore me. Like the separate Favorite Bands posting, where everyone likes the same six bands (Blink, Limp, etc.).

Yawn

I'm here to add some spice, stir the pot, do foul things with the spoon, and leave a mess. That's what they pay me for. :D

And Sniper: Prince of Thieves? You mean the Kevin Costner movie? Are you kidding me? Oof! That movie makes crap smell good.

Aliens! Thats the one! Those movies were class! Especially the movie AlienS

blade runner
star wars (except episode 1)
any star trek
any monty python
office space
the wall
12 monkeys
brazil
jabberwocky
max headroom
dune
mad max (except last one)
hoffa
any godfather
dead poets society
dogma
dr.strangelove
the matrix
nostradamus
nosferatu (yeah i know, but it was the only scary horror movie ever made)
some like it hot
lock stock and two smoking barrels
magnolia
nothing to lose
south park (any of them)
predator
the wonderful world of the brothers grim

I'm really not big on movies, but there are a few that I enjoyed a lot. They are...

The Usual Suspects
Instinct
Friday
Cheech & Chong's Up In Smoke
The Shawshank Redemption
Saving Private Ryan
The Outlaw Josie Wales
Gladiator (story was a bit predictable, but the battles were awesome)
The Devil's Advocate

P.S. I hope I'm not the only one that thought the Hobbit cartoon was horrible. Not even the finest 'pipe weed' from the Southfarthing is an adequate excuse for trying to jam the entirety of the book into a half-hour show.

[This message has been edited by The Wise, The Grey (edited January 29, 2001).]

it was actually about 80 minutes, but yeah, it wasn't that good.

Hm. Movie deja-vu all over again.

Matrix
Star Wars (IV and V...Ewoks and Gungans are lame!)
Star Trek (I and II)
Alien
Aliens
Predator
Terminator (I and II)
X-Men (Could've been better, but it was a great effort.)
Fugitive
Flash Gordan :D
Dune (The newer one. Although there was way too much sex. Mr. Herbert would be appalled, I'm positive.)

There are a couple more, but I think that list is good enough.

BTW - I heard that a movie of Rainbow Six/Rogue Spear is coming out.

Hmmm,

Scent of a Woman
What Dreams May Come
The Matrix
Gladiator
Grumpy Old Men
First Night
Beautiful Girls
The Saint
Ever After

Well...That's what comes to mind at the moment, but I love going to the movies! So I'm sure I've left some out. :D

Pulp Fiction !!!! (why did nobody come up with that?)
Resevoir Dogs
The Matrix
Dumb and Dumber
Seven
Saving Private Ryan

The quest for the holy grail was great to!
And I have to see The green mile and Gladiator.

What I saw must have been chopped to hell then, because I'm sure it was only a half-hour. It was aired on the Disney channel. I'd like to see the full version, maybe it won't leave such a nasty taste in my mouth...

Not so curious but mine are
Porn Adventures I
Porn Adventures II
Porn Adventures III
Porn Adventures IV
Porn Adventures V
Porn Adventures VI
Porn Adventures VII

Porn Adventures IX

Dismissed!

Beware the attack of Giant Horny Fatmakas. Coming to a message board near you. (Not, if you're lucky).

Tal
At last you and the others wanted me to go on the forums!Freaker is a freaker!
oh i remembered another good films

Tal's Fantasies (featuring guess who?:P)
and of course
Dismissed!

*No Tals were harmerd during replying this post ;)

You're asking for it Fat...

The 'supposedly horror film' that you are referring to septic, is final destination and it actually freaked me out cos i have a thing about death...but that's just me, anyway:
blade runner
fifth element
early tom hanks films
shooting fish
star wars (yoda)
toy story 1+2 (classics) :)
labyrinth
silent bob and jay films (dogma etc.)
...and a whole load of other stuff, this is all i can think of right now

Some that just pop into my mind:
Tampopo (a Japanese film about the relationshiop between erotics and culinary stile)
Mystery train (just wierd 'n' cool)
Starship Orion (the coolest SF)

Nightal,

I have to agree with your list. The only change I'd make is the movie Seven. It seemed to me that the movie was just using shock value to entertain the audience. That is all fine and dandy, but you also need proper characters. I thought Brad Pitt sucked in this part, he just wasn't believeable as a forensic detective. He was just too stupid and ridiculous. Too bad cause the movie could have been ok.

Strange, Brad Pitt won most of his fame being a pretty boy, but I like him in his dirt-bag roles. Anyone see:
True Romance: Christian Slater, Brad played a druggie named Floyd.
Kalifornia: Juliette Lewis, David Duchovny, Brad played a redneck psychopath.
Just saw the movie 'Snatch' was pretty good.

As for my list of favorites I would also add:

A Few Good Men,
As Good As It Gets: I love Jack Nicholson, Greg Kinear was good too.
The Princess Bride: "Inconceivable"
Braveheart
Apocolypse Now: I hated it when I was a kid, just rented it recently, pretty good stuff.
Red Violin: Samuel L. Jackson. That is one mysterious instrument, alot of physics involved.
Aliens
The Sound of Music: I hate to admit it, but I watch it every Christmas.
Life is Beautiful: One sad film.
Last of the Mohicans: awesome wilderness scenery.
Gladiator: Great on DVD
Battlefield Earth: Just Kidding, I haven't even seen it yet.

Ugh! My dad got a DVD player for Xmas, so I went up last weekend with a movie. His choice: Battlefield Earth!

Every bad thing you've ever heard about it is true. Half of the actors looked like they were going to fall off their stilts! Then I spent more time explaining the storyline to everyone, than I did watching the movie. No one could follow the plot.

Bad, Bad movie...

I was really hoping they were going to be true to the book...But it wasn't even close! It was extremely painful to watch!

I'm having flashbacks right now, and it's not pretty!

I like The Princess Bride too Lord Moeken, good choice!

I have many days when i'm 'mostly dead' usually on monday mornings :)

"Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya! You Killed my father! Prepare to die!"

[This message has been edited by Duskai (edited February 05, 2001).]

Inconceivable!

OK OK OK

5.no
6.more

8.people
9.i

IF THIS MAKES YOU FEEL BETTER OK

Dismissed.

The Princess Bride has been quoted in other threads, there are so many funny ones. Like the one where the Spaniard is fighting the five fingered man.
This one isn't exact, but you get my idea:
"I'll give you anything you want"
"Offer me Land and titles"
"It's yours! anyplace in my kingdom"
"Offer me wealth and riches"
"Gold and Jewels will be yours, and more!"
"Offer me anything that I want"
"Anything that your heart desires is yours!"
"Give me my father back you son of a *****!"

Oooh, awesome.

Did anyone notice that Inigo Montoya was a surgeon on Chicago Hope?
Or Wesley was the nerd father on Liar, Liar?

I need to add a few more to my list:

Dumb and Dumber: too funny, my wife hates it that I can relate to most of the humour.
Ferris Bueller's Day Off: Classic humour
Contact: A bit slow, but I like Jodie Foster, and the movie idea was neat.
Scent of a Woman: Pacino is great. "I'd take a flame thrower to this place!"
Bridges of Madison County: I hate saying it, but I thought it was well done. I like both Eastwood and Streep.
The Professional: Apparently there is an uncut international version that I haven't seen yet. Gary Oldman is very good.

Here ya go Lord Moeken (from the Favorite Movie Quotes post):

Inigo Montoya: Hallo, my name is Inigo Montoya; you killed my father. Prepare to die!
Six Fingered Man: No!

IM: Offer me money.

SFM: Yes...

IM: Power too; promise me that...

SFM: All that I have and more... Please...

IM: Offer me everything I ask for...

SFM: Anything you want...

IM: I want my father back you son of a *****!

From "The Princess Bride"

Thanks Blackthorne, I forgot to change the batteries in my photographic memory. ;)

Heh, I've got the DVD so I was able to get the quotes exact when I posted the last time :)

Oh that was you. I thought I had read it here before. OOPS. Well it's a qood quote, deserves a repeat (even if it is wrong)

Absolutely... It's one of my favorites :)

Love that movie! Thanks for the reminder, I'll have to go dig up the video this weekend.

Some others are...

The Dark Crystal
The Matrix
All Indiana Jones
Of course, Star Wars
and Beastmaster :D
Hey Sapiryl-I like Flash Gordon, too!
Shawshank Redemption, I watch it every time it comes on cable.
Apollo 13

and on the lighter side...
Grease
The Breakfast Club (and most other Brat Pack flicks)
Ferris Beuller (sp?)
Better Off Dead
Real Genius (and anything else with Val Kilmer, except At First Sight)

Oh, and Ladyhawke!

"Stop rhyming now! I mean it!"
"Anybody want a peanut?"

[This message has been edited by Vile (edited February 12, 2001).]

Vile- ROTF!! That one kills me every time! :D

Doesn't seem to be much going on, so resurect an old thread why don't we.

I won't bother to agree with most of whats been said before, but a few others need mentioning.

VERY diappointing to only see one mention of "The Usual Suspects" It is fantastic, one of the absolute best.

Totally neglected as well:

"Trainspotting" - Funnier than funny. Accent can be a bit tricky, but give it a go, you will not be sorry.

Can't go wrong with the "Junglebook" (Disney version) either. My fave cartoon feature film. Greatest sing-along ever when we had it as part of an all-nighter at uni with about 500 students.

For more sobering stuff, "The Killing Fields" and "Midnight Express". Strong stuff.

I'm not a movie maniac but some of my favourites are

The Coocoo's Nest (Jack Nicholson is the
best)
A few good men ( Love the final court scene)
As good as it gets
The Exorcist (not that good as a horror
film for me but a great movie
in general)

If I must, let's say my ace of aces is Ben Hur.
Why? It simply points out my motto "everything pays back", except it doesn't count for Jesus.

OK, there are more good movies, but this is not the place to write my biography, so last one I watched a few days ago and liked is 4th floor.

I just saw Swingers the other night, for the first time. It was 'money' to say the least.

The Jerk was great.

I've never seen the TV show, but I was impressed by Charlie's Angels. Nothing profound, but it was entertaining.

Any Given Sunday was pretty damn good.

Has anyone seen Freddie Got Fingered yet? Very, um... DISTURBING.

Would anyone believe that I have yet to watch a Star Wars movie?

Deep blue sea

*

Thats right, i'm quoting a great film that everyone has neglected.

Fight Club

(yes, I am back for some light entertainment, Brian or someone has nerfed my account (again))

Someone nailed most of the good Clint movies, someone else got most of the Jack movies. What about Tombstone and the Unforgiven. Or the Shootist, True Grit, Winchester '74, the Man Who Shot Liberty Valance and one of the greatest westerns; the original Lonesome Dove mini series.

The most recent great movie I've seen is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
