Vinnie is cool. I just love the actors/characters Richie pulls together.

in no order:

Withnail and I: Perhaps the greatest film ever made, funded by George harrison, the british answer to a Hunter S thompson movie....

Dr Strangelove: the film that made me love Peter Sellers, I read the book too back in the day...

One Flew over the Cuckoos' nest: The film that made me fall in love with Jack.... Jack is probably my fave actor, but this IS his best imo..along with the ensemble cast (genius)....

star trek IV is probably the best to watch repeatedly...but compared to 1st & 2nd selections...

sort it out...

Well... the reason it's in third place is because I don't like it as much as the first two.

I wanted to pick one that nobody else had said yet, and that one came to mind first. If you prefer something else, how about Bridge on the River Kwai, Casablanca, Passport to Pimlico, or Aliens?

Edit: maybe also the Replacement Killers.

 

[Mr Cheese]

The Shawshank Redemption
quote]

I think Shawshank is one of those films you can just watch again and again and again......

I believe it was voted in the top 10 greatest films by viewers for Channel 4 in the 90's in England.... (channel 4 is the tv station that makes all thsoe brit movies too)

[England my lionheart]

Love that Movie,great cast



Dr Strangelove: the film that made me love Peter Sellers, I read the book too back in the day...

Sellers is Cool

One Flew over the Cuckoos' nest: The film that made me fall in love with Jack.... Jack is probably my fave actor, but this IS his best imo..along with the ensemble cast (genius)....

The part where he takes the patients on a boat fishing cracked me up

 

[England my lionheart]

Its a tough call but here 3 i can watch again

Laurence of Arabia,visually stunning

The Life of Brian,Python at its best

Withnail and I,brilliant Comedy

 

[Caladan]

The Adventures of Baron Munchausen

Great film. some vivid scenes and characters. one of my fav Gilliam movies. a great message about the 'age of reason'.

 

[Kay]

This is harder than I thought it would be ... In no particular order:

1) Contact

2) The Matrix - The first one only, not the sequels.

3) Finding Nemo

I can watch those movies over and over because they speak to my life circumstances now (and in the past) in one way or another. I just don't seem to get tired of them.

Other top favorites in the past have been:

Star Wars IV, V & VI
Close Encounters
Lord of the Rings Trilogy

Ask me again in a year and I might have a different answer.

 

[Kay]

Crash - I couldn't stop thinking about this movie for days after I first saw it. I loved the way it showed how interrelated our lives are and how there is both incredible good and incredible evil in every one of us.

I still have not seen Crash. I really must rectify that. I've heard it's excellent.

 

[Draka]

Not easy to list my favorite movies, there are so many!
12 Angry Men
Inherit the Wind
The lives of Others

I played the lead in "12 Angry Men" but we entitled our play to be "12 Angry Jurors" as we weren't exactly all "men"

I've seen little parts of "Inherit the Wind" and it looked good.


As for my choices, and this is very hard to pick just three:

Iron Man
I Am Sam (though it makes me cry so much I can barely watch it)
Avatar

I rethought it and changed a couple...this is too hard!

 

[Father Heathen]

1. Equilibrium
2. A Wind Named Amnesia
3. Lord of The Rings (the whole trilogy)

Lives of Others is about a secret police agent in east Germany before the fall of Berlin Wall. He listened to a famous writer's secrets and became increasingly absorbed in his life. It is a moving tale. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. The atmosphere is so tense that you feel oppressed for a few days after you watch the movie. Das Leben der Anderen (2006)

"The Lives of Others" is a fantastic movie. I also recommend "Black Book" if you liked "Others." In fact, Germany has been putting out some excellent films over the past few years. I've been on a sort of German film kick for months now. The movie "Hitler's Secretary" and one recent one about Sophie Scholls are both FABULOUS as well.

My all time favorites are probably (in no particular order):

Fiddler on the Roof
Pulp Fiction
Sophie's Choice


Though I also really do love the following:

The Sound of Music
Casablanca
Napoleon Dynamite
Schindler's List
Braveheart
Princess Bride
The Lion in Winter
Robin Hood: Men in Tights
Henry V
Much Ado About Nothing

There are so many more....love me some movies...

 

[Kathryn]

I Love Guy Richie movies...

1. Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
2. Snatch
3. RocknRolla

Dang it, I forgot about these!

What's the one with Brad Pitt as the idiot who works at a gym and (spoiler alert), he gets shot?

And "Bandits" - I know that movie got panned by some critics but I frankly thought it was hilarious.

 

[Draka]

1. Equilibrium
2. A Wind Named Amnesia
3. Lord of The Rings (the whole trilogy)

Equilibrium is an awesome movie. :yes:

 

[9-10ths_Penguin]

not seent he passport one...the name is familiar though

It's an Ealing Studios comedy from the late '40s. When an unexploded bomb goes off revealing a chamber that contains a royal decree from the Middle Ages, the residents of a small London neighbourhood discover that they live on foreign soil... and hilarity ensues.

It's definitely worth checking out if you can find it.

I love alec guinness...one of his early films "The Man in the white suit" is one of my faves....

Yes! I like that one, too.
