What's your favorite movie of all-time?

Only name one. If you're posting an image, make sure you also type the title (in case of any of those pesky won't-show-up-on-the-org pics).

Enquiring minds want to know!

Hey, Ace!

I guess if I have to pick only one, I'm going to go with When Harry Met Sally. Even if that makes me sound super gay.

I easily have dozens of favorite movies, but if I can only choose one, I think it will always be "The Wizard of Oz".

The Godfather (1972)

In all the years since this movie came out, I have attempted to watch it on about 5 or 6 different occasions, and never made it completely through without falling asleep at some point. I even attempted to read the book, but never completed it either. I'm sure I'm missing out on a great story; everybody seems to love The Godfather, and all it's sequels.

Nevertheless, I still want to actually watch (...and complete) this movie someday. Most everyone rates it as a classic.

If you keep falling asleep on it, then maybe it's just not a movie for you. lol Which is fine, The Godfather isn't for everyone. To me, it's the best movie of all time. You have a superior cast, everyone was spectacular in their role. The script was on point. As much as a train wreck they say that filming this was, as well as all the multiple script re-writes, etc. the result was a classic. The first time I saw this movie was when I was 12 and have been hooked since. Even though I have all three on DVD, whenever it comes on television, I'm glued to the TV as if its the first time I've seen it. What most people don't get is that this movie isn't about violence, it's about strategy.

I can't possibly name just one. But I'm going to see one of my favorites on the big screen tomorrow night - Casablanca. touched

hmmm

But see, just the way you're explaining the movie, with such enthusiasm, convinces me that I'm overlooking something. That last line you wrote seems like an important clue to me, because I've reviewed all the violent scenes over and over again, and I'm like... 'meh, horses head...okaaay, what else?'. To make it worse, I can't even tell you the significance of that bloody horse head being in that man's bed. [SPOILER ALERT? TOO LATE???] Then, I know there's also something about "an offer that can't be refused", but couldn't tell you what that is either (...I just know it sounded like a threat, lol). I know... SAD!

I think you have hit the nail on the head when you suggest I may be missing the strategy. The next time I watch it (...I'm sure I have it packed away in some box somewhere in all this mess), I'll be sure to watch it with 'strategy' in mind.
