All Time Favorite Movie

[Murgatroy]

The Princess Bride.

 

I love a good fairy tale, and it was funny as all get out.

 

I don't think a day goes by that I don't find at least one line out of that movie to quote in a relevant situation.

Ya beat me to it. Inconceivable!

Ya beat me to it. Inconceivable!

You keep using that word, but I do not think it means what you think it means.

Napoleon Dynamite Vote for pedro!

Joe Dirt

My neighbor was showing me some fireworks and I had to laugh. I told him I have a bucket, and that we can pour some gas on them.

The freak has never seen Joe Dirt.

Dirt and Stepbrothers are my two fav.

[Sidewinder]

Lonesome Dove.

 

Nothing else comes close

I agree with quietmike. Lonesome Dove is my favorite. Ole Gus had life figured out... at least the part that affected him.

[Sidewinder]

For a good, clean, family movie I believe  "Courageous" is one of the best. Good for the parents... good for the kids.

[Jamie Jackson]

Tough call:

 

Some of my favorites are,

 

[url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0108399/?ref_=nv_sr_1]True Romance...a Tarantino film[/url]...Clarence and Alabama are not your everyday couple...and Val Kilmer as the ghost of Elvis...awesome... :pleased:

 

 

[url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0137523/?ref_=nv_sr_1] Fight Club[/url]...I never get tired of watching it.

 

 

[url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0079367/?ref_=nv_sr_1] The Jerk[/url]...because most of us have a "special purpose". :cool:

 

 

The original [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091474/?ref_=nv_sr_1]Michael Mann's "Manhunter"[/url]... Iron Butterfly's [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIVe-rZBcm4]"Inagodadivada"[/url] in the last action scene kicks butt!

 

 

Of course there's "Silence of the Lambs" , "T2", "Pulp Fiction", "V"....can't pick just one.

Call me old fashioned, but I'll watch Treasure of the Sierra Madre anytime.  It's rare to find a movie that presents so many facets of human nature as brilliantly as this one.

Casablanca. Great cast great story and great acting. All John Wayne movies. All the Marvel super hero movies.

[K191145]

There's alot of movies I could call my favorite I guess but here's my list of the ones that I think of first.

Action/War: Saving Private Ryan

Western: Once Upon A Time In The West

Comedy: Airplane, and don't call me Shirley.

Scary: Poltrigiest 1

I could say there's one musical I would add and that's Little Shop Of Horrors. Edited July 7, 2014 by K191145

[Ugly]

Army of Darkness   :pleased:

[hipower]

Little Shop of Horrors....how did I forget that!? Excellent movie adaptation of a Broadway musical adaptation of a very bad movie.

 

Then there's "The Wild Bunch"   Westerns don't get much better than this. Sam Peckinpaugh at his absolute best!

 

Never read or heard this, but I strongly suspect it was the basis for "Extreme Prejudice" with Nick Nolte and Powers Booth.

[tnhawk]

As a life long uber cinephile, there is simply no answer to that question.

 

- OS

I've been around way too many years to give an easy answer.  From B&W movies to the last release covers alot of territory.  Most of my favorites weren't made the the last few years however.

[Clod Stomper]

Army of Darkness :pleased:

"Good. Bad. I'm the guy with the gun. "

[Ugly]

"Good. Bad. I'm the guy with the gun. "

The movie is so bad it's funny! I love it, my ol lady thinks it;s the worst movie ever made.

Evil Dead too! I even have a bobble head of Ash, remember shop smart, shop S mart

[nightrunner]

So I'm not the only one.

Not at all. Its an excellent movie

[Clod Stomper]

So many favorite movies...

Patriotic:
Red Dawn (the original)
Last of the Mohicans ( the Daniel Day-Lewis version)
Braveheart

Comedy:
The 40 Year Old Virgin
Paul Blart: Mall Cop (based on a true story)

Epic:
The Lord of the Rings trilogy

But my all time favorite movie series...

Harry Potter. Yep, seriously. Read the books. I'm convinced that J. K. Rowling has a libertarian spirit.

[peejman]

So many choices....   I think I've "liked" at least half a dozen posts so far.  I'll put one in the mix that hasn't been mentioned yet.  Liar Liar.  Jim Carrey's wacko opinions aside, it's a freakin' hilarious movie.  As TrickyNicky said in the OP, it's a movie I watch when I need to laugh and I usually laugh until I cry. 

 

Another one is Office Space.  "Hey Peter man, breast exam on channel 9.  Wooo!" 

[Grunt67]

Josey Wales.....Clint Eastwood.  We kinda think alike.

I reckon so.

[NoBanStan]

This is a tough one honestly, there are so many to choose from.....

 

Comedy - Airplane, Kung Pow: Enter the fist, Grownups, Evil Dead 2

Sci fi - Aliens (2, 1, 3 in that order, the rest are dead to me), Inception

80's Action: Commando, Megaforce, Remo Williams

War: Any WWII film that isn't wind talkers, Black Hawk Down, Tears of the Sun (great action scene at the end)

[atlas3025]

I can't say what the best movie of all time is...or what my favorite is.  However, in order to be either it would have to keep me from changing the TV to "Men at Work" if it were on another channel.

Another vote here for "Dr. Strangelove"... I've seen this movie 76 times and counting....
