    [​IMG] Coming up with one favorite movie is difficult - there are so many!!! I'll say Saving Private Ryan for right now...

    Worst - Hmmmm it's a toss up! Either WIng Commander the Movie, or Eye of the Beholder (I still have no clue what that movie was about!!!) It had Ashley Judd in it...Which is the only saving grace of the film.

    I like most of David Lynch's work and saw Mulholland Drive last week, so I'll say that's my favourite movie for now.

    My worst movie is probably LotR, haven't seen Jeepers Creepers yet though..

    I really like Fight Club, and I am an avid SW fan but they really are not great movies. LotR was also a great movie. There is so many that it is hard to choose, A clockwork orange is also brilliant. I have seem alot of bad movies lately there to it is too many to mention I cant even pick one. But I did think that Swordfish was horrible. Pearl Harbour is real shitty too.

    [​IMG] LoTR: FoTR is a good movie, I'll second that. (Generally, bad movies don't get many nominations and even less Oscars. Not that I'm basing my evaluation on that at all, just a remark.)

    As for the worst movie... There are too many to list, but let's have a Famous bad movie... Batman & Robin! My God, that has to be one of the lamest, dumbest, poorly acted, stupidy scened, idioticly scripted etc. movies I have seen in my life.

    Favorite: Enemy at the Gates. Very good movie, IMHO

    Worst: Those romance movies in a historical context, e.g. Titanic or Pearl Harbor.

    I have favorite movies for all sorts of categories, like my favorite movies to consume quantities of alcohol to are Dead Alive and Pink Floyd's The Wall.

    My favorite movies to watch by myself are Legend, Dark Crystal and Labrynth.

    Some of my favorite "Saying-all-the-lines-with-the-actors" movies are The Crow, Interview With the Vampire, Braveheart, Clerks, Mallrats, Dogma, Scarface, Princess Bride, Rocky Horror Picture Show, and Monty Python and the Quest For the Holy Grail.

    I really dig gangster movies too. If I'm in that mood, then Casino and Goodfellas are my favorites.

    There's a few movies that are on TV once in awhile, and I always have to watch them, no matter how many times I've seen them, no matter how late it is, and no matter how much the station cuts out, like American History X, PCU, What's Eating Gilbert Grape, Blues Brothers, Animal House, Christmas Story, and Deerhunter.

    There's my favorite romantic movies, like What Dreams May Come, Everafter, and Shakespeare in Love.

    Then there's a few that don't have a category, that I just really like, such as Pulp Fiction, Star Wars, Meaning of Life, The World According to Garp, and History of the World Pt. 1, to name a few.

    It's so hard to pick just one.

    I do, however, have just one anti-favorite. This movie was so bad it made me angry. I got indigestion from it. Dungeons and Dragons. I have never hated a movie more in my life. Ever.

    I just don't know what is my favourite movie but for the worst I would say "Fun House" because there's absolutely nothing interesting in this movie. Me and my friend were looking for an old horror movie when we found that one. It's the slogan that attracted our attention "Pay to get in, pray to get out". But there were no history at the back of the movie. So my friend and I said: We will take a chance. It was awful, from the beginnig to the end.

    One favourite is very hard... Today: Lock Stock and two Smoking Barrels.

    Absolute drivel: Robocop 3. I can't remember how I ended up watching it, but it really was not worth 90 minutes of my (or anyone elses) life.
