Your Top Ten Movies All Time

My Top Ten Overlooked/Underrated/Silly Movies:

American Graffiti
Biloxi Blues
Clue
Detroit Rock City
Beautiful Girls
Creepshow
A League of Their Own
Chasing Amy
The Game
Predator

Admittedly, I don’t have such a vast film culture, and I am still waiting to finish downloadi… ermm… buying Antonioni’s films and a couple of Fellini’s which I haven’t seen, so I can make my own list, after I’ve watched them. I am particularly anxious to view, L’Avventura, L’Eclisse, La Notte, La strada, Nights of Cabiria.

Mr. Kebop, if you liked the outlandish feel of Waking Life, you could try Fellini’s 8 1/2. It is based on the same principle of mental distorsion, with emphasis this time on flash-backs, in the manner of Proust. Plus, it features Caludia Cardinale, who is a lovely girl.

Thank you sir, I’ll be sure to check it out.


ALIEN
CATCH 22
THE INSIDER
RAGING BULL
SAVE THE TIGER
THE DEER HUNTER
LAST TANGO IN PARIS
200I A SPACE ODYSSEY
ALL THE PRESIDENTS MEN
THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT

The greatest movie of all time is indisputably ‘Stand by Me’ (with The Breakfast Club at a close second place). It was our favorite as kids… in fact, my neighborhood buddies and I went on a similar adventure when we ran away from home.

I cried when I watched titanic.

No I really did. You prolly think I’m bullshitting because I always do. But not this time, ILP. Not this time.

It was under the “untab” button.

Where to start… :-k

Léon: The Professional 1995… a very memorable assassin film, in which assassin adopts girl
Dog Soldiers 2002… British soldiers inadvertently face rampant werewolves in the Scottish Highlands
All the brat pack films put together 1980s… is that cheating :confusion-shrug:
Fallen 1998… supernatural detective thriller involving Denzel Washington and an unforeseen cat
Battleship 2012… the best alien invasion film imo, for the brutal alien WMDs alone
Watchmen 2009… sci-fi at its kitschest retro best, done in the most fabulous of outfits
The Great Wall 2017… East meets West, and together saves the City from the feeding vicious wild beasts
The Watch 2012… a neighbourhood watch group v an alien invasion, whilst enjoying themselves far too much
The Fearless Vampire Killers 1967… how to kill a vampire, without stoking up their enamoured bloodlust desires
Resident Evil 2002… the highest-grossing film series based on a video game, having grossed over $1.2 billion worldwide.

Reminds me of another classic. Falling Down, from Joel Schumacher with Michael Douglas and Robert Duvall.

Sniffle… thats almost as bad as this one

Lol, I’m immediately telling everyone I know that joke. :smiley:

A good film indeed… a desperate character, very well portrayed by Douglas.

I realised a long time ago, that I have a thing for films with a 70s retro soundtrack, or with modern songs of similar sound. It creates a party in my mind.

  1. Cloud Atlas
  2. Ink
  3. belle verte.
  4. Abyss
  5. Contact
  6. Cube
    7.Snowpiercer
    8.Laberinto del Fauno
    9.Matrix
    10.The Prestige

Cant disagree.
