Gladiator is my favorite movie of all time.

the rest, in no particular order:

- Predator
- Braveheart
- Black Hawk Down
- The Big Lebowski
- The Hangover
- Snatch
- Terminator 2
- Se7en
- Batman Begins

again, going by the topic of listing my favorite movies. i recognize the fact that there are much "better" films out there, but the above are movies i can (and often do) watch every time they're on.

I think that's got to be the case here--it's one of the most subjective discussions ever--just like music.

My favorite--Field of Dreams--probably isn't on the top 500 of critically acclaimed best movies on anyone's list, but to me it's tops.

Liked it, didn't love it--Pacino, Deniro and Kilmer have all done much more top-10 worthy movies IMHO.

Ok, you're going to make me cry now.

Probably 5 scenes in that movie that make me misty, and my father is still alive--can't imagine watching it after he passes.

BTW, how is it that 'Caddyshack' isn't on your list. Seems mandatory.

leftturn3 · 11-22-2011, 12:42 PM

If your list does not start with the God Father, you might NOT be a red neck, you might just be a girl!

2, God Father II
3, Goodfella’s
4, A Bronx Tale
5, Easy Money

I consider that more of a training manual.

Snatch and Lock, Stock... very enjoyable; I love mean-looking gangstas with British accents.

yeah, Lock/Stock and RocknRolla are also great, but Snatch has the best characters.

Turkish and Tommy, Cousin Avi, Bullet-tooth Tony, Boris the Blade, Mickey the Pikey, Vinny/Sol/Tyrone, the "squeaky" dog, etc...

and of course, Brick Top, who's just AMAZING. "No thank you, Turkish. I'm sweet enough." :yes:
