Top 3 Films?

[Jord]

Well my list goes

1. Jar Head - It's a 10/10 Movie for me I've watched it 50+ times, It's epic

2. Watchmen - seen it once I loved it, The superhero stuff is a great mix with fighting nowdays where you can do high tech stuff with the effects

3. ALL The rocky movies, I love them what can I say I am a suck for rocky I love it :)

[Neversoft]

1. Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
2. Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
3. Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

If you will allow me to count the trilogy as one then...

1. Lord of the Rings
2. Ping Pong
3. The Shawshank Redemption

[Misawa]

1. Jaws
2. Cannibal Holocaust
3. The Shawshank Redemption

[ItsDave]

1. Shaun of the Dead

3. The Mask

[Donkeyballs18]

1. Shaun of the Dead - A classic

2. Saving private Ryan - An amazing film

3. 28 days Later - Classic

[Misawa]

I wouldn't call Shaun of the Dead and 28 Days Later "classics". They're only a few years old and they sure weren't instant classics.

[jackass]

Iron Man
Pirates Of The Carribian series
Minority Report

Shocking list, I know. But I have my reasons. :)

[Hushie]

1. My Neighbour Totoro (I actually am in love with this film)

2. Pokemon 2000

3. Spirited Away

Mmmmmmmmmmmmhmmmmm

[Andeeh]

1. Saving Private Ryan
2. Cabin Fever
3. Stuart Little - my first ever film i watched and remembered at the cinema

[Lost_Addict]

1. Rat Race --- i've had a long love for that film XD
2. Enemy of the state --- pure awsomeness
3. probably the LOTR trilogy --- classic

but on a whole i love msot of wills movies such as independance day, i am legend and so on XD

[ItsDave]

I wouldn't call Shaun of the Dead and 28 Days Later "classics". They're only a few years old and they sure weren't instant classics.

No where in the thread does it mention the films I really like having to be classics :S

[Misawa]

No, it doesn't, but that poster put "classic" beside them - and that's him, not you.

[ItsDave]

Oh, son of a biscuit. I thought you were in Ireland filming?

[Misawa]

I'm not in Ireland until October 4th/5th. Principal photography (filming) doesn't start until the middle of November.

[Black_Apalachi]

1. Jaws
2. Cannibal Holocaust
3. The Shawshank Redemption

Wow that surprised me.. you really liked Jaws? I don't think I've even watched it's entirety because I get so bored every time I try :P.



Iron Man
Pirates Of The Carribian series
Minority Report

Shocking list, I know. But I have my reasons. :)

I loved Iron Man too!! I seem to be the only person I know who thought it was amazing :(.

As for the question, it's simply too hard for me to answer :P.

[Misawa]

Way, way, way, way, way, way, way more people like Jaws than not, it's one of the most beloved and influential films of all time. The original blockbuster. The first film EVER to break the $100m barrier at the USA box office. The film that created the summer movie. An originator of the sequel trend. 25 million people didn't tune in to watch it in 1981, making it the third most watched broadcast in ITV history, for no reason - that was half the entire UK in '81. It single-handedly kept multiple generations out of the water through fear of what lies beneath.

I could go on and on with Jaws facts.

The problem is modern audiences won't appreciate Jaws because they are brought up on fast cuts, MTV editing and frantic paces, not well-built and told stories. They'll also have a go at the shark not being CG.

[Black_Apalachi]

Lol fair enough :P

[Misawa]

You should be ashamed of yourself ;)

[jackass]

so this just sounds like you base what films you like on how well they did.. like every other post youve made in every other thread -.-

[Nemo]

1) Sword of the stranger
2) The dark knight
3) Lion king series.

All mega-awesome.

[Misawa]

Actually, if you had the courtesy to read, you'd see that I am an advocate of that. I was giving the facts of how it is one of the most beloved films of all time.

But the facts are quite irrelevant when the thread is about your personal opinion, amirite?

[Misawa]

No, I was reinforcing my opinion. Someone said "You liked Jaws?" as if to say that not many people do, so I was giving the facts that show how it is one of the most beloved films of all time.

[kk.]

Are you saying i didnt read it? Because i wouldnt quote it and say something without having done so. Its not just this thread that youve backed something up with how well its done in the box office. And youre still doing it, even though flyingjesus prooved you wrong by you hating on artists (music) yet they have proven to be popular..

Get back to your film, if youre meant to be up in ireland now..


oh, and i am surprised that IB wasnt on your list

[dirrty]

1. the hangover
2. superbad
3. lion king

booyah!

[Misawa]

I've backed up box office success when talking about box office success. As I have stated a million times, box office success doesn't make a good film.

No, I am not in Ireland for another 2 weeks.

[kk.]

You have used it as an excuse/reason why you liked the film in another thread, and ill stick by that.


I'm not in Ireland until October 4th/5th. Principal photography (filming) doesn't start until the middle of November.

[Misawa]

Yes, the date has changed.

[Misawa]

dark knight is so overrated, how can anyone take that film seriously? have you heard batman's voice?

There are loads of amazing films I've watched, but if we're summing it up for 2009.. I'd have to say:

1) Doghouse

Yes, I am a sucker for Comedies :P

ND is cracking :(

dark knight is so overrated, how can anyone take that film seriously? have you heard batman's voice?

[Misawa]

Indeed, it is grossly overrated.

[FlyingJesus]

Yer, but i liked the story line and the joker was amazing.

There was a storyline?

I thought it was just action scene//action scene//action scene//action scene//action scene etc... not enough time between fights to have a real story going on. Boring as hell

[untrustus]

hey guys im the joker and people appreciate me now im dead

[Neversoft]

hey guys im the joker and people appreciate me now im dead

true dat

[Nemo]

hey guys im the joker and people appreciate me now im dead
Nopes, i loved it whether he is dead or not, the life of someone doesnt change my opinion on a movie.

[untrustus]

it sub-conciously affected everyone's views. no-one can say they watched and evaluated that film without once thinking about the joker/heath ledger thing.

[Nemo]

I can honestly say, hand on heart, i didnt think about the heath ledger's death. The acting he did made it a better film, but thats coz it was brilliant acting. but i dont judge whatsoever on his death.

[Black_Apalachi]

I'm not sure about all time, it's too hard to make that call but out of this year my favourite two have been Star Trek and District 9 - loved them both.


In no order...
1. The Shawkshank Redemption
2. Lethal Weapon
3. The Matrix

I forgot about Star Trek (which is somewhat underrated?) and Lethal Weapon!!!

[dynashox]

My favourites are :

1. Jurassic Park
2. Terminator 2
3. Transformer
