Favorite Films

**chemicalemotion** · 12-07-2006, 07:49 PM

Hiya guys!

I was just browsing my DVD collection (300+ DVD's!) and had trouble finding one because there are so many I like! I was just curious what everyone's favorite movie(s) of all-time are? Maybe suggest some recommendations? Movies are basically the only thing that settles me down in my time of panic, and especially if it's a good one!

Lets see...

<LI>Schindler's List</LI>
<LI>Fight club</LI>
<LI>The Pianist</LI>
<LI>Something's Gotta Give</LI>
<LI>LOTR Series</LI>
<LI>War of the Worlds</LI>
<LI>Brokeback Mountain</LI>
<LI>Pulp Fiction</LI>
<LI>Goodfellas</LI>
<LI>American Beauty</LI>
<LI>American History X</LI>
<LI>Forrest Gump</LI>
<LI>Sin City</LI>
<LI>V for Vendetta</LI>

There are so many others the list would be endless, but I narrowed down ones I enjoy immensely and tend to watch more than once. =P

Film(s) I hate in particular:

<LI>Snakes on a Plane -- UGH! Worst movie ever. </LI>

Wait... let me get this straight... you're an adult... who likes Napoleon Dynamite? That is without a doubt one of the coolest things I've ever heard in my entire life. Most people except the typical teen despise that movie, thinking it's completely pointless! And also, I love John Candy movies! Planes, Trains, and Automobiles is a total classic.

Napoleon Dynamite is one of my all-time favorites, too! I am almost 34, so I guess I'm an adult! ;-)Edited by: harmonygirl72

Oh I love it!!! I love the 70's decorated house too! The way Napoleon talks is so funny!!

"......whatever I FEEL like I wanna do, GOSH!....."

".....hey, can I try it really quick?....."

**harmonygirl72** · 12-07-2006, 09:28 PM

Yeah, that is a great movie! It makes you think it really is in the 80's and then you realize they are "chatting to babes online all day", so it can't be! Great film!

I got to go to a screening with the director of Amelie a month ago. He showed a short film of likes and dislikes, like in Amelie. It was brilliant!
