your 3 best movies

Exorcist: made me dead with fear of the unknown at a very young age

What dreams may come(robin williams): Opened me up to possibilities of how things may be after death


Razors edge(bill murrey): just plain elevating for the spirit

I really dislike Robin Williams. something about his face just strikes me the wrong way.

He's a goodish actor, but...

I really liked him in Death to Smoochy though. Maybe because he played a crazy villain - those roles fit him, in my mind.

Hrm, I've seen a lot of interesting movies, and a lot of them stick out for various reasons. I tend to find, around these parts at least, that it's usually around midnight or so on the weekend, or on Wednesdays, that decent, thought provoking movies get shown.

Some movies I like for the genre, or the action, such as the Star Trek movies and the likes of Hunt for Red October, and others I like for being at the pinnacle of a genre I like - such as A Bridge too Far, which I personally think is one of the best told war stories on the big screen ever. It'd never get made in this day and age simply because of the scope.

Then I've seen eclectic movies, usually in that late-night slot, which don't fit into a genre which I like, but which I enjoyed non the less. For example Telling Lies in America, which if I recall I sat down to just as I was going to go to bed one Saturday, and it kept me captivated all the way through.

For Williams, I like him. I also like when comedic actors, such as Williams and lately Carey, do serious movies, as for some odd reason they seem to do them very well.

Sorry if you're looking for a definitive list, alas I rarely give them... I don't believe in having a top whatever favourites for anything, and always squirm and wiggle whenever I'm asked for one.

Just as info, a hindu Swami recommended it highly.

Trainspotting i don't recall having heard about.

Adaptation is intersting about how things may be perceived.

Lost in translation touched me deeply in an emotionnal way cause i could identify so well with it.

Its a movie shot in the UK, had a UK release....did well moved to the US was luke warm here in the box office, but great movie.

I watch a lot of movies from the UK, the movies are shot so differently....its a nice change of pace. (i.e. Kinky boots, Layer Cake, Love actually, on a clear day, Waking Ned Devine, and so on and so on.)

the mel gibson or the steven segal one?

the mel gibson or the steven segal one?
Are you fucking kidding me? NO steven Segal movie would make my top 100,000 let alone my top 15

Snatch has to be in there somewhere... right?

Layer Cake was a good one.

hell i was praying that you wouldnt say the steven segal one, i know his movies suck.

I have to give it some more thought to come up with a top3 but it will certainly contain "12 Monkeys".

Despite having action man Bruce Willis in the lead and beautiful boy Brat Pitt in a supporting role (both giving marvelous performances btw), it is a great movie and a superb plot that I yet have to find serious issues with in terms of loose ends, and that for a movie that deals with time travel.

I've yet to be really disappointed by Terry Gilliam but this picture is absolutely gorgious and a must see.

Have you seen it yet, Pike?

Intersting. . . I never thought about the top three

1. MASH
2. Young Frankenstein
3. The Princess Bride

(Honorable Mention: North By Northwest, Pi, Lethal Weapon, Lost Highway, Forrest Gump)

Clockwork Orange is really a stange one...

For a normal director i would agree.....but comming from the guy that made 2001, this movie is normal, sane, and well explined

Nah i always have a movie playing but i will be doing other things. Like a movie is playing now while i surf the web.

It's a skill

What's your day job in the midst of it all?

So just because it's a movie that just came out, that instantly means I'm lesser than you for ranking it among my top three?

I pity you for being so close minded, sir.
