Omg I have millions of them. One of my favourites has got to be Shawshank Redemption. That film is just the sex, makes me cry every time. For a comedy, it has to be Rat Race I think. It is hilerious. For a childrens classic, it is definatly Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, the origional. Gene Wilder and his freaky hair, ow yessa.
Sin City is my favourite, I think it's absolutely brilliant - the effects, the way it's shot, the soundtrack, the lack of colour, the acting, it all astounds me. Also love the X-Men movies, all the Batman movies and Fantastic 4 cause I love DC comics and think they're all very well done. Brokeback Mountain also blows me away every time I see it, and both Bridget Jones movies because I find them hilarious. Chicago is another, I love the songs and the acting and all the drama. Four Weddings and a Funeral, too, because it's hilarious but also incredibly moving. LOTR series is another due to the effects, acting, plot, intensity and its brilliance Lastly 300 because it's so powerful and moving and riveting, and the effects are insane. Think that's enough for now
Gladiator Pitch Black Star Wars (The whole franchise, movies, games, books, comics etc rocks in my opinion. It did for Sci-fi what Lord of the Rings did for fantasy.) Lord of the Rings of course V for Vendetta Kingdom of Heaven Monty Python and the Holy Grail Shaun of the Dead October Sky Saving Private Ryan Blackhawk Down Kelly's Heroes (Most people have never heard of it, but Three Kings is a modern take on the storyline which took place in WWII and the quest for Nazi Gold!) Band of Brothers I just recently say this really cool movie called Equilibrium. Has anyone else seen it? I loved the themes, the characters, adn the actions equences were top notch. It screams cult classic.
The Last of the Mohicans, simply because it teachs a very important less about love and determination. I have to agree Saving Private Ryan is really good as well as The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Some others that i enjoy are as followed: Braveheart Dragonheart Pearl Harbor Troy The Patriot Pirates of the Carribean(All three) Ususally any movie at has to do with history and old times I really enjoy watching. Legend of the Fall I Enjoy that movie but its very sad. The Breakfast Club Sixteen Candles St. Elmo's Fire Ferris Bueller's Day Off The Bucket List Got to have the funny movies Those are just a few
I'm a sucker for kung-fu films, so... Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon- An Instant Classic Hero- BEST MOVIE EVER! House of the Flying Daggers- For the irony towards the ending Iron Monkey- For Wong Fei Hong!
Harry Potter LOTR's Ever After Peter Pan (Disney and real actors, not the musical from the 70's) Hook Super Troopers The King and I Sound of Music Phantom of the Opera Mary Poppins Chicago Shawshank Redemption The Green Mile and the list goes on and on...these are on the top of my head
Pitch Black was my favorite movie. It was really good. I love the ideas and images in Pitch Black. Riddick was my all time favorite hero, but not hero.
American Beauty - for being beautiful Contact - for being stunning, and having my favourite scene of all-time (on the beach ) Casino - the best Scorsese movie, with some classic scenes The Birdcage - my favourite comedy. I think it's faultless bar one line. American Psycho - an excellent film to study, but so underappreciated. Thankfully, much tamer than the book. Christian Bale deserved an Oscar. Jurassic Park - I love dinosaurs, and this movie has a creepy atmosphere throughout
Princess Mononoke is possibly the greatest Animated film in history, except for maybe Ghost in the Shell. Anything from Hayao Miyazaki is pretty good. I liked American History X. It wasn't what I expected but it was a great film with a totally unpredictable ending. I don't like Tom Cruise, but the Last Samurai was ok.
The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (Love the books, and the movies are so epic and awesome!) Star Wars (Do I need to explain?)
Gladiator - best movie ever with the epic thing down to the nail, you gotta love the Elysium scene. Pitch Black - Riddick is just too cool and unpredictable Lord of the Rings - because it was half as good as the books V for Vendetta - Hugo Weaving totally got into it Saving Private Ryan - A great war movie no list is complete without it Blackhawk Down - It kinda sounds like a videogame story but it's good Pearl Harbor - for the planes Pirates of the Carribean(All three) - duh!!!!!! 300 - special effects were insane. that's all from the top of my head
Gotta love Serenity Exciting, witty, and a great plot- exactly the finish that Firefly deserved. For some reason I can't think of any others, but I'm sure they'll come to me soon enough.
Favorite TV Show The title of the thread says it all... Lost The Unit Whose Line Is It Anyway How I Met Your Mother Two and a Half Men CSI: Miami and I think that's it.
I particularly like the Canadian show Corner Gas and the Sci Fi show Who Wants To Be a Superhero? Other then that I'm mostly an anime fan. I like these ones: Trigun Death Note Hellsing Gungrave Black Lagoon Berserk Gantz Elfen Lied Excel Saga
Favorite Movie? Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle Die Hard Die Hard With a Vengeance The Whole Nine Yards The Whole Ten Yards Pitch Black The Chronicles of Riddick Resident Evil American Gangster I can't think of any others
I didn't really think of anime here...hm....*adding* Friends Seinfeld M*A*S*H* s-cry-ed Neon Genesis Evangelion Zombie Powder Mahou Sensei Negima The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzima Trinity Blood Ghost In the Shell Cowboy Bebop Naruto Bleach
Favorite Band(s) (in no specific order) Oasis Matchbox 20 Linkin Park Billy Talent Chronic Future Sum 41 Rise Against Johnny Cash Pennywise One Republic Gorillaz Good Charlotte Eminem Common Breaking Benjamin Bon Jovi Three Days Grace 3 Doors Down Schoolyard Heroes Story of the Year
I was listening to Champagne Supernova the other day ... My essentials: Okkervil River Arcade Fire British Sea Power My Morning Jacket Sarah Brightman
