Aliens

 

Saving Private Ryan
Gladiator
3.10 to Yuma
The good the bad and the ugly
Forrest Gump

 

My Top 5 in order:

True Romance
Pulp Fiction
Training Day
Goodfellas
Shawshank Redemption

 

True Romance. .nice!

 

You know Telis, maby Shawshank quotes apply to tinnitus beautifully...for example-

ANDY: I guess it comes down to a simple choice, really. Get busy living or get busy dying......

RED: Same old sh*t, different day.......

BROOKS: Easy peasy japanesey........ (Life with mild T)

ANDY: You know what the Mexicans say about the Pacific?
RED: No.
ANDY: They say it has no memory. That's where I want to live the rest of my life. A warm place with no memory.......

ANDY: Remember Red, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies......

 

I loved Whiplash!

 

I'm not a big movie watcher. most likely I've never seen any movie you name before 1990. Lol
But here goes my favorite movies:

The Eye (Chinese version... So much better than the American version)
V for Vendetta
Oldboy (Korean ver... Highly recommended!)
Princess Mononoke
Spirited Away

...

 

You're like me...I love Studio Ghibli.

 

Well, I think studio ghibli is alright. I've only seen spirited away, princess Mononoke, howls moving castle and ponyo. Though I love spirited away and princess Mononoke, I thought the other two were alright. I've never seen my neighbor totoro though. Lol

 

I've seen all of their films. You needs to see more, trust me, it's worth it.

 

weekend at bernies

 

My all time great film is deliverance it's some time ago but it's timeless.

 

The Mist
Der Untergang
Das Leben der Anderen
Pulp Fiction
Dawn of the Dead (remake)
Generation War

And many many more.

 

The Mist is very good except for the unexpected ending.

 

I forgot to include the movie "GLORY" in my list. For those that haven't seen it, it's based on a true story and has a fantastic cast. In this scene, just before going into battle, the black soldiers of the Massachusetts 54th realize that they are finally accepted and respected as equals by the white soldiers.

Give'm Hell

@ManApart I will not say a word haha.

So many good movies. I wouldnt know what to choose.

This is a Canadian forum I often visit. This thread is called "What was the last good movie you watched?". Sometimes I go on there to get some ideas on some movies to watch. Although there is over 600 pages to go through. @Telis may have heard of this site http://forums.redflagdeals.com/what-last-good-movie-you-watched-617176/653/

 

If u want something a little different , watch snowpiercer , that was quite good.

It's about how the world is frozen over and a train has the only humans left on the earth.

The train is dictated by soldiers and treat Some humans in the last carriage really badly ( think f third class citizens) and the third class citizens have enough , so they decide to fight their way through the train and each carriage has a different "surprise" waiting for them.

Sounds a little morbid, but it's got comedy in it, a lot of action in it and it's interesting.

 

My favorite movie is the one I will watch when I'll be able to go back to the movies

 

A quick top 5:

1. Blade Runner.
2. Crouching tiger, hidden dragon.
3. The matrix.
4. Apocalypse Now.
5. Contact.

 

I tried to get into blade runner, I just didn't like it :s.

Other goood movies :

Scar face
Death becomes her
Cloverfield Lane
Mad Max
interstellar
The Martian

 

Some great films represented here!
I love movies and would have a hard time nailing down my list to just a few.

For pure film craft (great writing, acting, cinematography, etc, all rolled into one)?

Apocalypse Now, as @InfiniteLoop mentioned.
Gone with the Wind
Citizen Kane
