i don't have one specific one
as i like different films when i'm in different moods.
it's like asking what your favourite song is.
what's your favourite song?
mine's Boom shake shake the room by jazzy jeff and the fresh prince. It reminds me of a simpler time.
Mine is What is Love
by Haddaway. For similar reasons. It's still being played quite widely in Belgium I found this weekend.
manos: the hands of fate
and, harold and maude.
bamos: hands of steel
i STILL haven't watched Manos
i remember you telling me it was on youtube well over a year ago :(
FOOL!
you should watch it, it's brilliant.
Ghostbusters
I'm still a child inside which means my girlfriend is a peadophile
Josie and the Pussycats

It's very ace.
Can't watch this clip though cos they ba fun stuff like this at work.
it was the video of 'pretend to be nice'
with the lyrics so you can sing along!
i actually have the sountrack to josie and the pussycats. it's truly a great film and i can never get bored of watching it.
Good stuff
I picked up the soundtrack a few months ago. great pop numbers. It's definitely underrated.
varies
probably either Blade Runner, Big Lebowski, Empire Strikes Back, Royal Tenenbaums, Spinal Tap or Requiem for a Dream.
all films i could watch again and again
Beavis and Butthead do America
^20
To the lady with big boobs

but i've decided it's in the mood for love now.
basically, wong kar wai is king.
Blah blah blaaah
not seen that

Awesome x10
aceness
It's a revolving line-up, but headliner is usually
Dazed and Confused or Wayne's World.
Dead Man's Shoes is fantastic but I couldn't really choose one film
Old Boy, Sin City, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Duel and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (original) would be up there too
Die Hard With A Vengeance
too difficult.
Nah, s'easy.
Films suck.
It was Scum when I was about 14
I haven't reevaluated since then.
it changes but at the moment
ghost in the shell. not a fan of anime but that film is so fucking good

But...how do you remember what happens in that many films?!
I can barely remember the plot of two.
Oh yeah, work...
Bad Education? I didn't mean that, surely. 8/10 film at best. I suck. Replace it with back to the future. Thanks.
8/10 at best??
9/10 easily.
Different ranking system.
Probably only about 3 of my list would get 10/10.
It's my favourite Almodovar
That, and you know, Gael Garcia Bernal....
Yeah, it's my favourite Almodovar too.
But we're talking top 100 films here! I've got to be cruel.
Your prescence has reminded me I haven't put Pather Panchali in there. That's all manner of wrong.
VERY wrong
Lots of good stuff
but I have to express surprise at Planes, Trains and Automobiles.
Also, no Stop or my Mom will Shoot?
Yeah, but it still makes me laugh.
And feel good about the world at Christmas. See also: 'It's a wonderful life'. But this has the added advantage of John Candy turning into a devil!
I'm just a big softy at heart.
is that in order?
I watched Seven Samurai for the first time a couple of nights ago, and I'd be inclined to agree.
Not in that order,
but seven samurai is my favourite, yep.
My brother won a big Kurosawa
box set at his uni. I'm so excited to work my way through them all.
Also - good that it's not in order, Blue Velvet should be much, much higher...
Kurosawa is pretty much
my favourite director. His non-samurai films are very underappreciated. And he's come up with the two best movie adaptations of Shakespeare plays.
I think I have lots to look forward to then.
Just a shame you saw the best one first!
But the following are all incredible in their own way:
Yojimbo
Sanjuro
Throne of Blood
Ran
Stray Dog
The Hidden Fortress
Rashomon
Red Beard
Enjoy!
Tokyo Story
That is probably my favourite film
anything with Adam Sandler in it
...especially if he does one of his funny voices!!
brilliant stuff, just brilliant!
actually though.
Happy Gilmore is a classic
the Wedding Singer is the only
one of his films i haven't hated
well at least you didnt say the standard punch drunk love
although good I hate it when people only like that film of his because its just a more serious version of the rest of his films
big daddy is great
i love adam sandler
anything without Adam Sandler in it
I'd say
Mulholland Drive
Goodfellas
City Of God
Requiem For A Dream
Dead Man's Shoes
well if everyone else is listing films...
Rear Window
The Goonies
Wayne's World
Evil Dead 2/3
LOTR trilogy
Harvey
Fargo
Grosse Point Blank
YES
Someone choosing Army of Darkness! I don't get why everyone seems to hate it.
because they're 'tards?
Oldboy
It's got everything, violence, Oedipus style incest, vengeance, kidnap, etc. etc.
I think this is 50 - and in no order at all

I'm sure I've missed so much.
Of course you have, so did I.
I STILL haven't seen Bringing up baby.
I neaarly put Amores Perros, Midnight Cowboy and Three Colours Blue in mine.
Also, I cheated by counting Dekalog as one film instead of ten!
Are they the same versions in Dekalog?
The films are expanded aren't they?
expanded by about 20 minutes i think
on the two they redid.
dekalog isnt really a film though...
shhh!
Neither's the version of Das Boot I've got.
what version of das boot do you have thats not a film?
is it actually the same thing? i always thought it was some kind of spin off
that doesnt make sense
sorry.
do you mean the TV SERIES and not the film?
Indeed I do.
On vhs. It will be a sad day when they expire.
ive never actually seen das boot
the thought of having to sit throught it always puts me off, maybe i should relax such prejudicial judgements...
Only A short film about killing
and a short film about love.
The others are the same, I think.
And you get the expanded versions in the artifical eye releases anyway.
You really do need to see Bringing Up Baby
Cary Grant at his not-gay-thank-you-very-much best.
'Because I just went GAY
all of a sudden!'
And
for my money, Cary's at his best in His Girl Friday, which would be one of my favourites. Along with Chinatown, Vertigo, Magnolia and Dead Ringers.
Ha, I love that bit
I still refuse to believe he was gay though. See, when I build a time machine I have to go back and marry him.
*Andrei Rublev
That bothers me far too much.
