A lot of the old black and white films

I personally have been collecting movies(well the ones worth having) Since I was in the 6th grade.

The genre of movies that I enjoy would include action mostly. However I do like a movie if it has a good plot, cast, and director.

My Top Ten Movies

1.) The Entire James Bond Collection (mostly like The Living Daylights and From Russia With Love)

3.) Indiana Jones Trilogy

4.) Star Wars (Return of the Jedi)

5.) The Godfather

6.) The Terminator

7.) Band of Brothers(not really a movie but still awsome)

8.) Rear Window (Alfred Hitchcock)

9.) Alien

10.) Cinderella Man

I want to know what your favorite movies are and if you got a top ten list them!

And the nominies are;

The Star Wars Trilogy (The early ones)

The Indiana Jones Trilogy

The entire James Bond Collection (including the new one)

Anything of Saturday Night Live

Gone in Sixty Seconds

Both Charlie's Angels Movies

The Lord of the Rings set

National Lampoon's Vacation, European Vacation, Christmas Vacation, and Vegas Vacation

Stay tuned for another addition of baby-dandan's favorite movies list!

[luvs]

The only ones that come to mind right now are

Fried Green Tomato's

Thelma & Louise

[belinda_sue_fox]

Can't believe no one mentioned Blade runner ( the real version without the monologue over the top (a cookie to who is first to say why it was added)). Is a few films people mentioned where they never mentioned which version.

Inconcievable that more people never mentioned Princess bride.

Can't understand how V for vendetta got so many mentions, while not a bad film hardly a classic or masterpiece.

As for trilogies or for example all the bond films, i can't see how that wo*ks. I mean look at Bond the TD era of films hardly stands up to the rest. Third films in back to the future and terminator ..was they just made to have a trilogy?? While i'm at it ...all the trek films?? come on..most them films are complete lemons.

No real idea what i'd list as my top 10 films, i'd not want to list em realy becomes after i'd mentioned 10 would want to change the list. But having

Shawshank redemption

Green mile

National velvet

on it wouldn't be wrong. They are always a good watch.

Wheres the top 10 worst films list, worst remake or the top ten over hyped list. I'd be guessing some films would show up on all the lists.

[Codymoogle]

Hmmm...Top ten movies...well, these are ones I like, anyway...

More..

11. The Goonies!

And I want to see any Pooh movies, any Disney Classic's sequels that I haven't seen, The Spongebob Squarepants Movie, and That new one from Disney Pixar (I think)...I don't know what it's called but in the commercial there's this T-rex that says, "I have a big head...and little arms." That cracks me up every time and I'm not sure why... Maybe I'm ?

I live in a very small town. I tell people who aren't from this area that I live in Richfield. I actually live in Venice, but Richfield is the biggest city in the area so it is easier to relate to. The town of Richfield only has one theatre with one movie screen (I know it sucks!). I rely on my DVD collection and 500 watt surround sound system to satisfy my movie cravings.

[babyfett]

Star Wars ep 4"A New Hope". My first movie. I was not even two years old when my parents took me too see it back in 1977. I gues that Is why I am a big SW fan and collector.

[seppuku]

I have to agree with most of you, actually.

Notable is Necros' inclusion of Ong-Bak. That movie was amazing. Usually Thai cinema is so hard to understand, due to cultural differences.

[baby-dandan]

Men at Work

Life

Detroit Rock City

For the number of Star Wars fans on the board (as is apparent from this thread) there's an exhibition of Props & Costumes at the Saatchi Gallery in London right now.

I saw it on a TV News prog and they showed the Darth Vader and Stormtrooper costumes and from what I can gather there's a demonstration of those laser sword thingies (sorry if that sounds vague, I'm not an afficionado.)

The Saatchi Gallery is close to Waterloo Station on the South Bank and the exhibition is on until September 1st if anyone's interested and in the vicinity.
