what is the best movie ever?

[Smoke]

Heh... I place Ghenghis Khan starring John Wayne pretty close to the Star Wars Holiday Special on this graph.

I don't watch James Bond movies and I don't watch John Wayne movies, but I am willing to make an exception for Genghis Khan. I just think it's hilarious.

But I admit to having an odd sense of humor. I thought The Shining was hilarious, too.

That's another one I never understood. I watched it a year or two ago, and I was confused because I couldn't see any reason for it to be so well-received.

It's definitely an acquired taste, I think that's why it's mostly considered a cult film.

I don't really like James Bond, either. But I do love Sean Connery. He is still sexy in his 80s!

Rush Hour 3

"The Bounty" with Anthony Hopkins and Mel Gibson before he went weird. Great movie with a more balanced view of Captain Bligh and Fletcher Christian and the famous mutiny on the Bounty. Fantastic musical score by Vangelis.

Oh, and does acting get any better than Meryl Streep in "Sophie's Choice?" And what about Liam Neeson (yummy!) in "Schindler's List?"

I don't know, "Wittgenstein"?

How about "A Time To Kill" - a movie that followed the book pretty closely. That whole film is powerful, especially Jake's closing statement and the very last line of the movie...if you've seen it, you know. *wipes a tear* and I'm not emotional about movies, lol.

You think Sean Connery is sexy? I take it you've never watched Zardoz, then.
