All Time Favorite Movie

[Oh Shoot]

The African Queen is a great one I always forget about. One of my dad's favorites so I grew up watching it on VHS with him.

 

With screenplay by our own James Agee.

Re-watched one of my favorites last night, Fargo the movie. Watched all the episodes of the TV show, it was pretty good.

Way too hard to pick one favorite, but among the ones that I ALWAYS stop and watch EVERY time I see them on TV (even though I own them on DVD/BluRay):

 

1) Pulp Fiction

2) Cape Fear (with Nolte and DeNiro)

3) To Kill a Mockingbird (did you know that's Rober Duvall as Boo Radley?)

4) Boondock Saints

I dunno-- I prefer the original Cape Fear with Robert Mitchum... Mitchum always played a great psycho villain-- had a great role in Night of the Hunter as well.

Nothing against the original, but I think Nolte's version of Sam was more interesting. Mitchum is always awesome, though. I loved him in the remake too.

When Mitchum played a tough guy I don't think he was acting!

I love the Bourne movies followed by Talladega Nights and Anchorman

Too Kill A Mockingbird:   Atticus:  I remember when my daddy gave me that gun. He told me that I should never point it at anything in the house; and that he'd rather I'd shoot at tin cans in the backyard. But he said that sooner or later he supposed the temptation to go after birds would be too much, and that I could shoot all the blue jays I wanted - if I could hit 'em; but to remember it was a sin to kill a mockingbird.

 

Dr. Strangelove: "Gentlemen, you can't fight in here! This is the War Room."

[b]The Outlaw Josey Wales: "Pull Emuel Pull"[/b]

 

 

One of my favorite quotes and also very true.

 

 

Josey Wales: Now remember, when things look bad and it looks like you're not gonna make it, then you gotta get mean. I mean plumb, mad-dog mean. 'Cause if you lose your head and you give up then you neither live nor win. That's just the way it is.

Today, it is "The Hunt for Red October".

[seez52]

The ten commandments just because Charlton Heston is one of my all time favorites and the fact that there ain't no CGI creating the backdrops. Thems all real people.

I love the Bourne movies followed by Talladega Nights and Anchorman

I like the Bourne series especially the last one but there must be a generational gap in finding humor in Will Ferrell movies.

I channel surfed last night with Talladega Nights and I still think his movies are the stupidest waste of film out there.

 

To each his own.  :shrug:

[TrickyNicky]

Yup, you either get Will Ferrel/John C Riley or you don't. No middle ground that I've found. John C Riley I think is an absolute nut, but a damn good actor. Most people wouldn't associate his role in Gangs of New York





With Steve Brule

"Used Cars", Seez52!!??

 

I haven't heard of that movie in years.  I was with Ray Stevens in Houston, an afternoon to kill before the show, and we both ended up watching the same TV channel airing "Used Cars".  We can still laugh about it.  Probably the longest, most hilarious dieing scene on film.

 

Can't believe you listed it.  I thought Ray and I were the only two people who ever even saw it. 

 

Er … I guess my favorite is, ummm, "Fargo".

I've always been a Kurt Russell fan. There are some great lines in the movie and some good actors. Casting Al Lewis (Grandpa Munster) as a tobacco chewing hangin' judge is just typical of the depth of thought that went into making it.

 

Nobody has mentioned Deliverance, but it really was a classic and has impacted generations since it's release. I don't guess it would be considered my favorite movie, but certainly is a classic. There really should be a required movie viewing list for younger folks.
