Subject: Every1's fav movies?

Written By: Criz on 01/06/02 at 01:16 p.m.

I was just wondering what your top 5 movies of all time are.  There are so many films that i like, but my personal favorites have to be:

Dirty Dancing
Bill and Teds Excellent Adventure
Grease
Pretty Woman
10 Things I Hate About You

(Special mention to The Usual Suspects, Cruel Intentions and The Full Monty :))

I like my chick flicks :) but what does every1 else think?

Not including all of the 80s Brat Pack flicks (not to mention Can't Buy Me Love and License to Drive), I would have to say:
1.  American Beauty ("Sometimes there is so much beauty in this world, I feel like I can't take it." That line automatically put this movie into the top five)
2.  Grease
3.  Pulp Fiction
4.  Psycho (Perkins, not Vaughn)
5.  American Pie
This is too hard...I have so many movies that I really like.::)

Yeah i know - there are too many! I've never seen American Beauty - i gotta go rent it!

Geez, that got me past the 5 limit.

I'll leave it at that, I guess.  ;D  ;)

Hmm...

5. Night At The Roxbury
4. Grease
3. Rush Hour
2. Men In Black
1. The Waterboy

Subject: Re: Every1's fav movies?

Written By: My_Sharona on 01/07/02 at 06:20 a.m.

Ok then here's my top 5

1.   Girl, Interrupted.  This movie was sooo inspiring to me the first time I saw it, I just can't explain it, I love this movie.

2.   American History X.  I was actually surprised with how good it was.

3.   Carrie.  Total Classic

4.   Grease.  Another classic, the songs totally rocked.

5.   Rocky.  Just the first one.  I loved it when he said "Hey Adrian, it's me Rocky, can you believe this?"  

There are sooo many good movies out there.  Honourable mention goes to The Breakfast Club.  As a movie, it was quite good, but it deserves to be mentioned for the struggle I went through to find a copy.

I thought that was probably the one you liked.  Now that I think about it, the one from the 30's was also called Love Story, but the dialogue was exactly the same as An Affair To Remember.  Thanks to Bobo too for looking that information up about the later remake of it.

I haven't seen many movies listed that go back past the late seventies, so I'll throw out a few of my favorites from the old days.

1. The Maltese Falcon

2. Key Largo

3. The Big Sleep

4. Treasure of the Sierra Madre

5. Double Indemnity


Okay, so I like film noir, and Bogey...

Subject: Re: Every1's fav movies?

Written By: Marci on 01/12/02 at 07:16 p.m.

I don't think I could limit it to just five..
From the 80's, I loved Some Kind Of Wonderful,  Pretty in Pink, Dirty Dancing, Footloose, The Goonies, The Outsiders, and the Karate Kid movies, at least the first two.  Somehow I realized there was a part 3 put out with Ralph Macchio that I don't remember ever seeing!   ???

From the 90's I really liked Waynes World, Circle of Friends, Legends of the Fall, School Ties, With Honors, Four Weddings and a Funeral, Armageddon, Notting Hill, Mr. Holland's Opus, Good Will Hunting, Shawshank Redemption, and So I Married and Ax Murderer

And more recently, I liked The Story of Us, Me, Myself, and Irene, Gone in 60 Seconds, Erin Brokavich, The Green Mile, Office Space, the Sixth Sense, and A Knight's Tale

See, I knew I couldn't limit it to 5, even five from each generation!  :-[ Sorry!  And the darn thing is, I'm sure I'm still forgetting some... ::)

Just wanted to mention that I fell asleep during "Four Weddings and a Funeral". I didn't see the humor in it. Also, I found "Me, Myself, and Irene" to be a little too much. It was just a little too warped and maybe a little more distasteful than usual Jim Carey (I like most of his movies, btw  ;D ). Or maybe I had one too many that night.  :P
Anyway, the one movie of Jim Carey's that I've yet to see is "The Cable Guy". I heard it was just plain awful and could've had the potential to destroy his career. Is it really that bad?

Well, hey, Four Weddings wasn't for everybody...in truth, the first time I saw it, I didn't like it either..there had been so much hype about it, and I guess I was expecting something "more"..but then, I saw "Nine Months", and "Sense and Sensibility" and became a pretty big Hugh Grant fan, so I decided maybe I should give "Four Weddings and a Funeral" another chance.  Once I got used to his style of acting, I appreciated the movie a lot more.
As for "Me, Myself, and Irene"...I'm not a huge Jim Carrey fan, though my husband is, so I have seen most of his movies.  I found it pretty funny.  Personally, I think most of today's movies are pretty distasteful...for some reason, people seem to like that type of movie.  I, for one, don't.  Sure it had some tacky stuff, I won't deny that.  But for some reason, there was enough funny in it that I could at least somewhat overlook some of the "less tasteful" parts. Heck, my sister (and brother) in law thought it was just awful..they "couldn't even watch it"..and yet, they are fans of South Park and he has Ren and Stimpy tattooed on his feet.. ???  Go figure.
Trust me, I'm not into "gross, potty humor", but I didn't think that one was one of the worst ones I've been unfortunate enough to see.  ::)
Oh, I saw part of the Cable Guy--I didn't care for it.  But I didn't like the second Ace Ventura movie either (well, except for the part where he put "the Monopoly Guy" around his shoulders and wore him like a stole.. ;D )  
But hey, that's why they make so many movies..they know that not everybody is going to like the same type of films.

I agree, the book was better but then that is how it always is.  At least Stephen King wrote the screenplay.  He did better than most could.    I only didn't like one thing about the movie (this will get my membership in the 80's messageboard revoked ;)), I didn't like the choice of Molly Ringwald playing Fran.  I really don't like Molly Ringwald (except in 16 Candles and Breakfast Club).

Which quote - beacuse they're all about music!! ?

I just like '10 Things I Hate About You'. It's not a serious film, its a teen move - but its one of the better 'teen movies' out there. Plus it's based on Shakspeare :)

Orange County- This is a very funny movie. When I rented it on DVD I kept looking at the part where  whatever Jack Black's character is watching the first episode of Spongebob!

Who Framed Roger Rabbit- One of the AMAZING movies of the 80's. Seeing people hold animated objects looks so cool to me!and It's got a lot of old toons, like Woody Woodpecker, Bugs Bunny and Sylvester and tweety.

2.  Fiddler on the Roof (1971)
