oh man i have tons of favorite movies. here are some -Star Wars Episodes 1-6 -My Big Fat Greek Wedding -Wedding Planner -Lord of the Rings, Return of the King -What Lies Beneath -Black -Fifth Element -Night at the Roxbury -Sleeping Beauty
Dance with Wolves Forrest Gump Willow Star Wars (IV, V & VI) Se7en The Shawshenk Redemption Legends of the Fall Kill Bill (1 & 2 Japanese uncut, I hate the other versions) Alexander Gangs of New York Magnolia Jurassic Park The Matrix Terminator (1, 2 & 3) Fight Club Titanic Pulp Fiction
Dances with Wolves is the best movie I ever saw. Willow and Star Wars (IV, V & VI) are my favorite movies of all time. I also really liked Titanic but the ending was just stupid, turning it into some sort of happy ending...
All Quiet on the Western Front (1930) A Day at the Races Duck Soup Monkey Business Nosferatu (1922) Safety Last!
Honorable Mention: MANOS The Hands of Fate!
And also, anyone that's a fan of silent movies should check out "The Call of Cthulhu"(2005). It was released last year on DVD as an independent release, and it's a B&W silent film that tries to recreate the style in which a movie would have been made of the H.P. Lovecraft story at the time it was written. Very good stuff.
