What is your favorite movie? And why? - Page 7

Mark A Collier Sr · 01-11-2010, 07:45 AM

Oddball... I love the Kelly's Heros! I am a movieholic as well. I am on the road Monday thru Friday each week and have at least 12 movies on me! lol

ALL TIME FAVORITE>>> Star Wars! (all of them) Reason: With out Lucas' bounds with special effects, NONE of the movies out today would be half as good. Industrial Light and Magic, THX - surround sound, PIXAR graphics... the list goes on! If you watch the credits of every high graphics (Special effects) movie... you will see something that stemed from Star Wars! lol

ANYWAY... The Dirty Dozen, Hang em' High, LOTRs1,2&3, Transformers... Most all SciFi! Star Trek (TNG and Voyager), Battlestar Galactica... Don't have enough time to list them all.

I do have over 1,000 DVDs at home, 200+ VHS and way too many copied tapes!

I had to put my theater on hold because I wanted my Camaro more! So.. I will have a Home Theater in a few years!

Favorite of all time - Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (saw it 5 times in the theaters)
Favorite I can watch any day, any time - The Fifth Element (watched it over 100 times, no lie)
Recently released favorite - Avatar
Favorite fan boy movies - Star Wars, Matrix, Transformers

Return of the King is a fantasy masterpiece. All the culminating events from Fellowship and Two Towers make Return of the King an epic ending to a great story line. Not as good as reading the books, but seeing it visually was epic.

I had The Fifth Element on UMD for my PSP and I would watch it at work. Also, before I started work after high school, there was a whole month that HBO had it and I would watch it almost everyday. Sometimes twice a day. Its just a fun movie.

Avatar is another fun movie. You get so involved with the characters, theres loads of plot development for a big budget special effects movie. The visuals are stunning and James Horner does another epic score. I had to download the soundtrack after I saw it the first time.

Star Wars because its Star Wars

, Matrix because learning Kung Foo in seconds

, Transformers because its Transformers and it has a 2010 Camaro as a main character

Brokinarrow · 01-11-2010, 05:38 PM

In no particular order: Fight Club, Fifth Element, The Princess Bride (classic), Star Wars (the ORIGINAL trilogy), District 9... I could go on, but that'll do for now

Metalman412 · 01-12-2010, 12:54 PM

Boondock Saints!!! The first one, still not too sure about the sequel... But my all time favorites are Braveheart and Tombstone! Best comedy has to go to Blazing Saddles though! Mel Brooks doesn't discriminate, he makes fun of everyone!!!

rodimus prime · 01-12-2010, 01:03 PM

Full Metal Jacket. One of my inspirations to join the Marines.

Switchin2Chevy · 01-12-2010, 01:17 PM

Terminator 2; Judgement Day.
This is my favorite, not because of the breakthrough special effects of that time, but because of the story that was told.

The Last Picture Show- Ben Johnson is from my hometown! Cybill Shepherd at the pool!
Lonesome Dove-epic movie "We don't rent pigs"
Fandango-"Son that car is afflicted!"

purplhaizcraz3 · 01-12-2010, 09:29 PM

American Gangster- I LMAO when T.I. got blasted during the bust.

Ironman- I mean really, who the hell doesn't want all the money, women, and a kickass power suit you can fly around in and beat some b*****s whenever you feel like.

AvP- I SO want that spear the chieftain gives to Lex at the end! That thing is SOOOO BADA$$!!!!!

And for poops and laughs, I'll say both Transformers- Gotta love Megan hangin' over that motorcycle in the 2nd.
