When he said your favourite films, i didn't think that meant a list of all the films which came to mind neverworlder J/K

Anyway i like:
Star wars IV,V,VI (But not that shite excuse for a movie episode 1)
All Monty Python Movies
Commando (The funniest action movie ever)
Matrix
Star Trek 6
Hackers (I think)

and proabably lots others, but I cant remember them

 

Aliens
Das Boot
Platoon
Saving Private Ryan
Conan The Barbarian

And others that dont come to my mind right now.

 

Er...

dragonheart
Gone in 60 seconds
the man who would be king
dead poets society
Lethal weapon (any)
Lock, Stock ATSB

 

Believe me: The list was longer. I had to edit it down. What can I say, I like movies. And, no offense, these little lists that have the same few movies (Matrix, SW, etc.) bore me. Like the separate Favorite Bands posting, where everyone likes the same six bands (Blink, Limp, etc.).

Yawn

I'm here to add some spice, stir the pot, do foul things with the spoon, and leave a mess. That's what they pay me for.

And Sniper: Prince of Thieves? You mean the Kevin Costner movie? Are you kidding me? Oof! That movie makes crap smell good.

 

Aliens! Thats the one! Those movies were class! Especially the movie AlienS

 

blade runner
star wars (except episode 1)
any star trek
any monty python
office space
the wall
12 monkeys
brazil
jabberwocky
max headroom
dune
mad max (except last one)
hoffa
any godfather
dead poets society
dogma
dr.strangelove
the matrix
nostradamus
nosferatu (yeah i know, but it was the only scary horror movie ever made)
some like it hot
lock stock and two smoking barrels
magnolia
nothing to lose
south park (any of them)
predator
the wonderful world of the brothers grim

 

I'm really not big on movies, but there are a few that I enjoyed a lot. They are...

The Usual Suspects
Instinct
Friday
Cheech & Chong's Up In Smoke
The Shawshank Redemption
Saving Private Ryan
The Outlaw Josie Wales
Gladiator (story was a bit predictable, but the battles were awesome)
The Devil's Advocate

P.S. I hope I'm not the only one that thought the Hobbit cartoon was horrible. Not even the finest 'pipe weed' from the Southfarthing is an adequate excuse for trying to jam the entirety of the book into a half-hour show.

it was actually about 80 minutes, but yeah, it wasn't that good.

 

Hm. Movie deja-vu all over again.

There are a couple more, but I think that list is good enough.

The quest for the holy grail was great to!
And I have to see The green mile and Gladiator.

 

What I saw must have been chopped to hell then, because I'm sure it was only a half-hour. It was aired on the Disney channel. I'd like to see the full version, maybe it won't leave such a nasty taste in my mouth...
