Yeah, I know the one. It's got the car chase and this weird guy who keeps picking his nose. Boy, that blonde chick is hot. Kinda like that girl in that other movie with the aliens. You know the one with the guy with the cool voice and the dark hair. Man he's cool.

The Godfather part 1 & 2 are the best movies ever in my opinion.

I can't believe some of the films listed here. Dirty dancing & Purple rain can hardly count among the best movies of all time!
I woke up sunday morning with no way to hold my head that didn't hurt
and the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad so I had one more for dessert

Who said the movies posted were supposed to be the best (even though some of them are)? They are personal FAVORITES. See the header of the post? If you are going to be attempt to be pretentious at least do it in the correct thread.

i like movies by great visionaries/directors: tarantino (reservoir dogs, pulp fiction), fincher (seven, fight club), kubrick (clockwork orange, 2001), coen brothers (big lebowski, barton fink), burton (sleepy hollow, batman), etc.
seen too many movies to pick a couple of favorites. lots of arthouse films, hollywood films. there's just too much. last memorable film i saw was 'amelie'.. french flick, just beautiful.
don't need no reefer, don't need cocaine
purple music does the same to my brain
i'm high, so high

In the comedysection add up:
- the naked gun ,favour number 1 ,from the makers of police squad.
- Some Mel Brooks movies ,blazing saddles,high anxiety and spaceballs.

Also check the movie 'happiness'.It's kind of a strange movie. Won't tell you the story and don't let it spoil you ahead. Great movie.

My favourites are star wars 123 (456).
Superman was the first movie i visited without my parents and alone .I sat first row but after the start of the movie ,with the upcomming S-logo ,i sat in the back. it scared the hell out of me. Also a favourite along with part 2.
Spiderman was my last movie. I liked it very much ,great work.
Did i almost forget the James Bond 007 movies,not. And Prince ofcourse ,also made 2 movies i like . Purple rain and under the cherry moon.
