Best Movie(s) you have seen?

[Whatswiththeheadbands?]

What is the best movie, or movies, that you have ever seen?

For me, it has to be Rocky. Just every single aspect of the movie comes together so brilliantly that it's hard, almost impossible, for me to pick a fault with the movie.

The Avengers - The Quintessential superhero movie. Joss Whedon at the top of his game.

Pulp Fiction - Do I even need to say why?

[Donatello19]

The Toy Story trilogy, Frozen, and pretty much everything from the Disney renaissance.

Let's not forget Pixar's Films (Sans Cars 2 and Brave)

Well in an effort to not just list all my favorite movies heres a list of movies that I never get tired of.

Child's Play series, not Seed
House (1986)
Meet the Parents/Fockers
Ghostbusters
Jurassic Park
MIB series
Tremors series
The Wizard, yes that one

As for the best movies Ive ever seen I'll have to really think about it to be fair.

Wow, now this is a hard one. One of my absolute favorites that is also a very good movie in its own right is Spider-Man 2. It had everything that made the first one good, but took it up to 11. The fight scenes with Ock were superb- some of the best action sequences I've ever seen even now- and the tension between Pete and M-J, along with the "accept your destiny" theme just cinched it for me.

Another one I feel is STILL one of the best movies out there is the first Jurassic Park. Just awe-inspiring and beautiful- right up until it all became a terrifying nightmare of roaring, stomping death. Then it was just plain scary fun!

For drama, I'd have to go with Hidalgo- not an obvious choice, perhaps, but I love it for two reasons- first, I'm a sucker for animal drama (and horse movies especially) and second, it was based on a true story. Come to think of it, I'd place War Horse in the same category. Both were amazingly well done, and both made me bawl my eyes out.

[Walkabout]

Probably 2001: A Space Odyssey.

It's not my favourite, but it's probably the best movie I've ever seen.

[ObiWanFan4life]

A Beautiful Mind has my favorite performance from Russell Crowe.

The Shining is my favorite Stanley Kubrick movie. Some of the best psychological horror ever put to film.

X2: X-Men United is as exciting and thought provoking as the first one, and I can't wait for Days of Future Past.

I also LOVE Spider-Man 2 as well. Great action, brilliant acting, and a very exciting story.

[SDCC]

Here's a few...

Double Indemnity
Batman Begins
Predator
Ghostbusters
The Artist
Jurassic Park
Robocop
Return of the Jedi
The Lion King

There are plenty more. But that generally sums me and my tastes up.

In terms of commercial success: Titanic
In terms of overall quality: Gone With The Wind
Animated feature: Pinocchio
Comic Book: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles followed by Spiderman 2
Others:
Jurassic Park
Jaws
Back to the Future
The Breakfast Club

As you can tell I'm a classics guy, preferring to wait until a movie becomes on demand, as many great movies from the holiday season currently are such as Frozen and 12 Years a Slave. It's funny that in the old pre-Internet days that by the time such a movie today would be on demand, it would just be in a second-run theater. That's where I went to the movies in early childhood and saw them first; it wasn't until the release of Jurassic Park that I saw a movie first-run. I honestly don't see to many first-run films anymore though again so I can take advantage of our cable TV/Internet package; basically for the price of one movie a week for two including concessions, I can just get a great second-run experience with the convience of home.

[Icebot]

Forrest Gump, the Wizard of Oz, the Little Mermaid.

[shuriken]

All time- Rocky, Taxi Driver and Pulp Fiction
Comic book adaptations- TMNT, The Dark Knight and the Crow
Comedies- Ghost busters, The Hangover and Little miss Sunshine
Fantasy/Sci Fi- Star Wars trilogy, Blade Runner, Labyrinth
Horror- The Shining
Recent films- American Hustle, The Fighter, Gran Torino


There are so many more but these come to mind

[Memphis]

Silver Linings Playbook. Love that movie. I fell in love with Jennifer Lawrence after I saw that movie. After that I was like "Who's Emma Stone?".

[Kanon]

Comedy - Ace Ventura 2
Fantasy - Lord of the rings, Hobbit, All from Marvel
Action - 96 hours, Fast and Furious

[raph27]

The LOTR movies, Frozen, The Dark Knight, Ghostbusters, Spider-Man 2, Back to the Future.

[chrisdude]

Rocky is one of my favorites, too. Pee-Wee's Big Adventure will never stop being hilarious, and I'd probably have to call that my favorite movie. I also love Back to the Future, and I, Robot. Also, X-Men: First Class.

[Redeemer]

Some pretty good movies listed, but one movie I have not seen mention is Dreamworks: How to Train Your Dragon
Can't wait for the sequel this summer

[Redeemer]

Briefly crowned my favorite movie of 2010. Then came The Fighter :ohwell:

Damn I also like fighter, but I think I still prefer how to train your dragon. But its not fair, they are two totally different movies.

[Dirty Blond]

Persona.
The Seventh Seal.
The Virgin Spring.
Cries And Whispers.
The Passion Of Anna.
Contempt.
Life Is Beautiful.

Probably Empire Strikes Back or Jurrassic Park.

Or The Avengers.

[arkangel]

Favorites include The Empire Strikes Back, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Spiderman 2, TMNT, Back to the Future, Rocky IV, Goodfellas, Trainspotting

Guilty pleasures include the Vanishing, the Fugitive, Life as a House and cheesy Tom Cruise movies from the 80s like TopGun, Days of Thunder and Cocktail.

My all time favorite, though, would have to be Strange Days. I just love that film and anything from the cyberpunk genre. :D
