Favorite Movies?

What are everyone's favorite movies? My all time favorite movies are Gladiator and Lord Of The Rings...

Here are some more of my favorites:

Dungeons & Dragons
Sleepy Hollow
All Star Trek's
All Star Wars
All Halloween's
From Hell
Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back

There's tonnnnns more!

   Babe, A little pig goes a long way.

      Paul

Woody Allen's films ( but not all of them)

I also like Gladiator, The Lord of the Rings, and Babe.

I've never really decided on a "favorite" movie. I like too many. Some I like are:

Scarey/drama:
The Sixth Sense
Don't Say a Word

Childrens movies:
The Lion King
Snow Dogs

Comedies/Romance:
Austin Powers (all 3)
Meet the Parents

Ok there's a lot more, and probably others I like better, but I"m too tired to think.

Probably my all time fave is "One Magic Christmas" .. I can watch it any time of the year because it's a great feel good movie. I would recommend to anyone who wants a good Christmas movie, but not for very small kids who are afraid of what death means (I know that makes the movie sound horrible but it really isn't, I could just see how it would upset some kids :D )

Glory
Cool Runnings
and I'll try to think of some more

Pretty woman...You've got mail...A walk in the clouds...A walk to remember...The mask...A Walk Across Egypt...Mrs. Doubtfire...Tons more....

"Plenty" with Meryl Strep (sp?) and the most gorgeous man on the face of the earth Charles Dance.

Braveheart
:)

But I'm a Cheerleader
The Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys (just saw that movie thought it was great)
Amelie
Superstar
Benny and Joon
And an all time favorite Clueless

Dirty Dancing....I danced for 16 years and taught dance for 4...I love any movie about dancing....I even watch the dance and cheerleading competitions on CNN.

Coyote Ugly- It was just fun.

We Were Soldiers- I cried. I guess it hit home since Joey is in the Marine Corps.

Some musicals that are either going to be movies or on video:
Chicago, Caberet, Fosse

Too many to think of.

Star Wars is at the top of the list. :D

Lord of the rings
Gladiator
Nothing Hill
Mrs. Doubtfire
Miss Congeniality
Pearl Harbor
Stepmom
The hunt for the red October

and many many more ...

The Hunt for Red October...You're right...it was a good movie..not my normal style and not what I'd see again, but parts of that movie have stuck with me.

It's been a very long time since I saw it, what I do remember is one of the men on the sub was either German or Russian(excuse my ignorance, I can't remember). He only wanted to go to the US, so he could drive from state to state without having to show any papers. When he was killed, I cried because he never got to do what he wished which was just drive around the US. That movie made me realize some of the freedoms that i took for granted and I never forgot that.

I also LOVE Run Lola Run

Gosh...there are so many!!

I like just about anything Disney. Lion King ranks at the top of the list, but I like all of the animated movies:)

I usually like movies that Julie Roberts is in, particularly My Best Friend's Wedding! Cute movie. Notting Hill, Runaway Bridey, Pretty Woman, Erin Brokovich...all were good.

I loved Miss Congeniality! I laughed so hard. I also like her in While you were sleeping.

LOTR was awsome!
Star Wars movies
Star Trek movies
Harry Potter! :D Seeing it this Friday!!! :D :D

The Austin Powers were hilarious and I thought Zoolander was too;)

My all time favorite Christmas movie is the George C. Scott A Christmas Carol and A Christmas Story

My favorite hindi movie is Mujhse Dosti Karoge (Will you be my friend). Cute cute movie!

I'll stop for now;)

I've got way too many to list!

I forgot to say The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, and The Scorpian King are also some of my favorites :)

Hmmm, basically I love 'chick flicks' and musicals.

Pam, I totally agree with your choices!!! :D I loved The Green Mile & Steel Magnolias...and especially Rain Man. Have you seen I am Sam?? If you liked the Rain Man, you probably would like I am Sam as well.

Oh another of my favorites is Deep End of the Ocean with Michelle Pfeiffer. I cried with that one, and felt that Mother's pain!

If you liked Rain Man see "Charlie" and "Awakenings" too.. those are so good.

I saw 8 Mile last weekend.. I liked it but I didn't think it really lived up to the hype.

I also loved "The Green Mile" and the book was good too.. but I don't think I would have understood the book if I hadn't seen the movie first because the book kind of skips around.

Several of you have listed some of my favs... I'll try and list a few that haven't been named....

Lady and the Tramp
Fox And the Hound
The Aristocats
Seven
The Piano
The Other Sister
StepMom
Maverick

I thought The Count of Monte Cristo was really good too! Now on the Hannibal thing.....The Silence of The Lambs is a really good movie! Not a fan of Hannibal though. I mean, they didn't even use Jodie Foster...it's supposed to be 10 years later, and she looks 10 years younger...and well, I thought it was kind of boring. I might not even have what I just said right, as I saw it quite a long time ago, lol. I would like to see Red Dragon though.

Ghostworld
Monsoon Wedding
Clash of the Titans (gotta love that b-movie kitsch)
Mystery Science Theater 3000
The Royal Tennanbaums (amazing soundtrack)

Amy, if you like reading, I would suggest reading Hannibal and Red Dragon. Red Dragon stayed pretty close to the book but Hannibal didn't follow the book as closely. Out of the three, I must say Red Dragon was the best (book and movie).
