[Bone idleness]

Deer Hunter
Godfather
Shindlers List (must see)
Apocalypse Now
If
Et

More seriously than my earlier reply:

Eurotrip, it is simply awesome, probably the only movie I can watch again and again and again without getting bored

You, sir (or ma'am), are an uncultured buffoon.

Right... Why do you think I am one?

[Parthenon]

American History X

[Valipac]

American History X

This is the only movie that has ever made me cry.

[Londim]

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang is quite awesome. Also:

Fight Club
American Gangster
Man on Fire
Goodfellas

[New Heliopolis]

The Matrix Trilogy (especially 3), The Star Wars series (especially III), Hellboy II, and the X-men Trilogy (especially 3, again ), PoTC II, and...one more, I'll remember it soon...

That's serious movies though

[Yootopia]

I'll be boring and go for Citizen Kane

How would anyone know he said "Rosebud"?

[Pantera]

Lonesome Dove
Boondock Saints
Easy Rider

Thank you all for conceding your defeat.

[Trve]

The Matrix Trilogy (especially 3), The Star Wars series (especially III), Hellboy II, and the X-men Trilogy (especially 3, again ), PoTC II, and...one more, I'll remember it soon...

...the fuck did you just say?

Star Wars Episide III? The Matrix Revolution? X-men III? PotC II?


This is 'best movie ever', not 'worst movie in a trilogy'.

All though I guess you get some credit for not saying Clone Wars. You just like shiney CGI and big 'splodies in your movies, dontcha?

[Gnoria]

Dr. Strangelove
Airplane!
Airplane 2
Duck Soup/anything by the Marx Brothers

Dunno if the last three count as "good," but they're fun as anything to watch.

[Jordsindia]

i liked the dark night

[Secruss]

Star Wars: A New Hope.

[New Heliopolis]

The Matrix Trilogy (especially 3), The Star Wars series (especially III), Hellboy II, and the X-men Trilogy (especially 3, again ), PoTC II, and...one more, I'll remember it soon...

More like at least some of that combined with some psychodrama and/or good theme and I'm good.

[Bluth Corporation]

I can't believe I left "Blackula" out of my list!

(kidding)

[Big Jim P]

"Dracula Sucks" was better, but only if you like gay vampires.

[Pope Joan]

The best movie would have to be the one I have spent real money to see more than once.

So:

The Sting

Girl Interrupted

The Never Ending Story

It

Legend

Midway

Invasion of the Body Snatchers

Nausicaa

[Cazelia]

If you don't agree with me that Gran Torino is the best movie ever, get off my lawn.

[Londim]

Also Kingdom of Heaven with the best part being played by Ghassan Massoud's as Saladin.

[Seraosha]

For a long time I would have said Donnie Darko to this but these days it has competition from quite a few other things. I'd still say Donnie Darko has the best film soundtrack of all time however.

28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later are tied.

I actually thought the 2nd movie was crap.

Liked the original, though.

Agreed. 28 Weeks Later was an abysmal and horrifying cash in on the breath of fresh air that was 28 Days Later. I also hate Robbie Carlisle for giving it much needed legitimacy in the UK after it turned out we'd became a colony of the United States in the aftermath of the first film. Though who knows? Perhaps that was a really, really subtle dig at the apparent relationship between our two leaders and our two fabulous nations at the time -_-

[Atheist Arrondisments]

Angels&Demons

[Rainasia]

The Godfather Trilogy has got to be one of the best films in history. Long I know, but pure quality cinema. Possibly the first time the unedited version won over the production company directors, rather than a shorter 2 hour version.

[Call to power]

Horton hears a who there is so much in that film that just cracks me up like the monkey using banana binoculars >.<

Platoon.

so basically you just want to watch a baww fest with the entire worlds supply of violins being consumed in the soundtrack?

Eurotrip, it is simply awesome, probably the only movie I can watch again and again and again without getting bored

don't tell Scotty!

[The Ivory Eagle]

Brazil, One Flew Over the Cuccoos Nest, Persepolis,Anchorman,The Third man and Oh what a Lovely War.

I just watched The Big Sleep and I lost the thread after 45 mins.

[Ravea]

Angels&Demons

I just threw up in my mouth.

Also, I forgot to add Akira, pretty much any Miazayki movie, and Requiem for a Dream. Even if it is so god damn terrifying.

[SaintB]

I haven't written and produced my action comedy scripts so the best movies in the world aren;t out yet.
