Who wants to go first?

This year...only went to see one movie...Rambo...it rocked, Sly was great and I love Julie Benz

Top 10?
It tends to change with my day, but the favorite is Serenity

1) Serenity (Ms Glau kicks butt!)
2) Blade Runner
3) Godfather (1 & 2)
4) Cruel Intentions (SMG!)
5) Underworld (1 & 2)
6) Dusk to Dawn (love Juliette Lewis)
7) Rocky Horror
8) Innocent Blood
9) The Graduate
10) Buffy the Vampire Slayer (not a great movie but without it, no TV series)

I would have Chinatown, La Strada and Treasure of the Sierra Madre on there. How about The Last Picture Show and maybe even the Exorcist? Dr. Strangelove? Definitely Paths of Glory.

And, oh yeah, Morty's favorite.......The Imposters.

Very good ,sir.

I never said it was my very best of all time...but it might make the top ten...still working on it.


Some people's taste here is abysmal.

I like The Lost Boys and any movie with Vampires innit. I also like To Wong Fu.

That's an understatement.

Nobody even mentioned Funny Bones.

Perhaps you were only kidding Mr. Andy, but I actually like "Funny Bones". I've always enjoyed Oliver Platt's work, and Oliver Reed is terrific in that film as well IMO.

Paths of Glory, Chinatown and La Strada?

Are you gonna call me an imecile again if i agree?

Don't know if you've seen Journey's End but that would be on my top 20.

La Strada.... greatest film ever.

How could you leave out The Neverending Story?

I've never seen it. Will have to rent it...

[blackthroatedwind]

I always thought Juliet of the Spirits was comparable to La Strada. Even Nights in Cabiria.

Just make sure it's in Italian and not dubbed.

Julie Christie is wonderful in "Away From Her". I hope and predict she'll win Best Actress, and I feel she deserves it.

How exactly do doorknobs help you Morty? Please tell.

[Mortimer]

I was trained by my personal team of Masterminds Intellectual Property...which they deeded over to me.





Weren't expecting that...were you?
