Dune is not a great movie. No.

Just curious...did you read and enjoy the books?

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.

[ExtraSlow]

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.

Raiders of the Lost Ark
John Carpenter's The Thing
Aliens
The Empire Strikes Back
Goodfellas

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.

[DonJuan]

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.

[03ozwhip]

You can tell alot by the fave movies of everyone for sure. There are so many honorable mentions I could do, there's alot in here that are the same as mine fir sure

[Xtrema]

Good movies that I can rewatch infinite times:

Back to the Future
Winter Solider
Indiana Jones: Last Crusade
Empire Strike Back
T2

Good movies that takes some effort to revisit:

Schindler's list
Saving Private Ryan
Scarface
Goodfellas
Good Will Hunting

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.

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
City Of God
Shawshank Redemption
Forrest Gump

[ExtraSlow]

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

Comfort food. My go to is Naked Gun series or Police Academy. They ain't great but if they pop up out of the blue, I'll sit thru them.

[Tik-Tok]

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

[whoreads]

My top faves have all been mentioned (Goodfellas, Fargo, Godfather II, Platoon, etc) so I wanted to mention a few that haven't:

Once Upon a Time in America

First Naked Gun is a classic. Basically a perfect comedy movie.

If obscure Jason Priestley movies are your thing, and I have to assume they are, then might I recommend The Highwayman.
