Just curious...did you read and enjoy the books?This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Seems like everyone I know that was a fan of the book loved the movie, but people that hadn't read it hated the movie. Which I can definitely understand, there was a whole lot of lore that wasn't explained.
Read the book, saw the old movie. Liked the new movie least of all three, by a mile. It was short of story, and I think story matters more than visual.

Now that's a 6-10 list, or even a 1-5 list, I can get down with. The Thing is a film which is my go-to when I really need to forget about the regular life BS we all go through. Can't believe I forgot about it, and same can be said for a ton of films here. Good thread, reminding me to rewatch about 1/2 dozen great films I've not seen in a long while.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I'd also like to toss in Team America in there also...
Also I don't think Raiders of the Lost Ark doesn't get enough credit from critics (lots of love in this thread). It really is one of the greatest movies.

First Dune movie was like 98% setup. I mean I liked it because it follows the book more closely, but yeah, less filler shots and more story.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I’m disappointed I don’t think I’ve seen Empire Strikes Back once

Ok, not "the greatest" but this is one I've watched many times, and it puts a smile on my face.

Forrest Gump is a weird one. I LOVE the movie, but I somehow don't think it's a "good" movie.

It's difficult to nail down favorites because I've watched them so much before I had a kid, that I don't know if they're my favorites anymore just because of repetition.
Airplane!
The Matrix
National Lampoon Christmas Vacation
Full Metal Jacket
Shaun of the Dead
Honorable 1/2 mention: the first half of Super Troopers

First Naked Gun is a classic. Basically a perfect comedy movie.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
If obscure Jason Priestley movies are your thing, and I have to assume they are, then might I recommend The Highwayman.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
