Favorite Movie
 
I just thaught there were too many threads talking about bad movies, i.e., "worst movie ever", "worst movie sequel", so I just wanted to know what's everyones fav. And I'm not asking what everyone thinks is the greatest movie ever made, just which movie you like to watch the most. My favorite is a 3 way tie between 'Rocky' and 'Batman' and 'Spider-Man'. I could watch those movies like once a week. So what's yours?

cqb101 07-24-2003 10:11 PM

The Rock. I watch it almost everyday.......Second would be SPR, and then Daredevil and the Blade movies.

Well, while his soundtrack for Young Guns II was indeed spectacular, I prefer the first flick for sentimental reasons. Young Guns II was awesome as well, though, and I usually just list them both as one movie to avoid having to make painful choices. I've literally seen both of them probably a thousand times a piece anyway.

Fugitoid Jones 07-31-2003 07:18 AM

I think what Leo33 was talking about with the 4th one is the TMNT:the Next Mutation movie. Am I right?

Reznorite420 07-31-2003 07:53 AM

There's a TMNT universe called "The Next Mutation"? Is that a thing from the future too?

:lol: :lol: :lol:

[No, I didn't get a brain tumor; many of you should know by now that I don't regard TNM as a TMNT universe, because, for starters, it isn't even CALLED TMNT, it's just NT: TNM]

Anyone have a favorite movie that wasn't made in the past 20 years?!

Leo656 08-01-2003 10:20 PM

I'm guessing not, since most people around here seem to be 20 or younger and probably never even saw "Cool Hand Luke". Or know what it is for that matter.

Escape From New York should count, since it was made 22 years ago :D

Oh yeah, the first 2 Monty Python movies...

I've seen bits and pieces. I just remember the part where they make that bet and eat those eggs.

Evil Dead was made in 1979, so that's 24 years. But then again, it wasn't released till 1982, so that's still 21 years...

Bry 08-02-2003 08:25 AM

High Fidelity
Evil Dead (all three)
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
Better Off Dead
TMNT (mostly just the first)
Ghost World
Donnie Darko
Citizen Kane
Star Wars
Office Space
Grosse Pointe Blank

...and lots more, frankly. This is just what caught my mind at the moment.

Cascadia 08-02-2003 08:39 PM

I love the new Seabiscuit movie :D

You're not alone Leo, I've seen that movie... :D

And for that comment about Bon Jovi... I've gotta be one of their biggest fans. Bon Jovi for life! :D

Mikey the Party Turtle 08-03-2003 12:49 AM

The Matrix Trilogy (Revolutions is going to be the best one.)
The Lord of the Rings (Both versions of FotR and TTT.)
Evil Dead Trilogy
Star Wars Trilogy
Spider-Man
X2
Ghostbusters
Ghostbusters II
TMNT (The first one.)
Back to the Future Trilogy

Leo656 08-03-2003 01:48 AM

It's funny how so many people are familiar with the quote "What we've got here is... failure to communicate..." (mostly from Guns N Roses "Civil War"), but don't know it came from the movie "Cool Hand Luke". Or they know but haven't seen it. Which is understandable since as far as I know it's not on DVD and I haven't been able to find it on video, I've only seen it on TCM. It's definitely worth seeing at any rate.

Loolaa 08-03-2003 04:15 AM

My favourite movies at the moment are:

Shrek
Fellowship of the Ring
Labyrinth
Dark Crystal
The Others
The Hulk
12 Monkeys

and kind of out of place as they're old black and white movies..

Some Like it Hot
Arsenic and Old Lace
Harvey

Actually that's backwards for me, I knew it was from the movie but I didn't know it was in a Guns n Roses song called Civil War.

Leo656 08-03-2003 05:33 AM

Heh indeed, every "rule" has an exception. But yeah, on "Use Your Illusion II", the first song on the album called "Civil War" opens with a clip of dialog from "Cool Hand Luke": "What we've got here is... failure to communicate. There's some men you just can't reach. So, you get what we had here last week, which is the way HE wants it. Well, he gets it."

Check it out sometime, it's a great song.
