Your Personal Top 10 Movies

Oooh a few of you know Boondock Saints... I worked at Blockbuster when that came out and it was exclusive to us. It stayed a pretty small title but I loved it. Glad to see I wasn't the only one

I also recently watched The Prophecy... Cool movie, I liked Satan sitting there telling the people that he was doing what he was doing for himself and not because he loved them. Then 10 minutes later he says " Ask me to take you with me... " And when they say no he whispers, almost hisses in a really fast and creepy voice " I love you, I love you more than Jesus." *goosebumps*

Its more about moments in movies for me, rather than entire films although there are some that I can watch all the time any time and still love. You guys are listing lots of them. Princess Bride , LOTR, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, I like Dune, Henry V, Zoolander, Fierce Creatures, Robin Hood: Men In Tights, ect. There are more I am just too retarded to think atm.

Uhhh I am at a loss for words, have you actually seen the movie? If so I am confused

Yes I've seen it.
I rank it with the entire Peter Greneway canon: waste of life

IMHO of course

In no particular order (because i've never been good at putting favorites in any order)..

Wizard of Oz, Labyrinth, Alice in Wonderland, Girl Inturrupted, Heathers, LotR, Ocean's Eleven, Italian Job, Fifth Element, and Pirates of the Caribbean. These will probably change tomorrow.

Other movies I love that I haven't seen in.. way too long, are Edward Scissorhands, Drop Dead Fred, Better Off Dead, American History X, and My Cousin Vinny.

Shash , anything with Spacey or Cusack , when they teamed up in Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil was astonishing. I had seen a few tiny snipets on the movie and wondered , then I saw it and was floored.

1: Tetsu Iron man. Japaneese Cyberpunk/erotica/dystopia with insane soundtrack.

2: A chineese Ghoststory 2. 1 wizard ( that refills his manapool with homemade beer) 2 ninjas 1 Shogun with " the mustash" vs one 2000 meters long beetle-thing-bug-it. One of my all time favorite scenes is in this movie. The Wizard is flying high up in the air above the beetlething by chaincasting fireballs downwards therby generating energy to keep him in the air, have to be seen to fully understand.

3: Full Metall Jacket ( only the 20ish first minuts tho) DRILLINGINSTRUCTOR

4: Day without Policeman, Movie from The Phillipines, where the policemen make a deal with the locals about taking one day of work, the chaos, anarchy and mayhem that follows is bigger than life.

5: Drowned by number. P Greeneways best imo, I realy like the different games they play and the rules for them..

6: The dangerous mind from planet Aurous. S-F classic from the 50 'is i think. A brain is floating around on the world and causing all kind of problems, the best part of the movie is that they are using the same scene ( ppl climing up a hill, hunted by the brain, last ca 30 sec) 4 times.

7: A better tomorrow. Hong Kong action at its finest. Chow Yung Fats masterpiece, the last scene last about 30 minuts and more ammo is wasted than in all the terminators and robocops together.

8:Father father saunta cluas is dead. A movie I saw at a local film festival in Gotheburg. In the info text about the movie it said. A movie that shows what the new russian NECROrealism is all about. The only movie I ever seen where people started a fight ( yes fists) arguing about the movie.
I have looked for this movie for about 10 years now I will pay good money for a copy!

9: Acopalypse now: A movie I cant se to many times.

10: Carlitos Way. AL Pacino rubbs his head in a mountain of druggs can never be wrong.
