Pam, I totally agree with your choices!!! 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.

I see that "soldier" movies are really popular. I can't watch those anymore Last one I saw was Pearl Harbor and was in a rut for weeks

My all time favorite is The Count Of Monte Cristo. Great movie based on an excellent book! I also love the Hannibal movies. Red Dragon was AWESOME! As were Silence of The Lambs, and Hannibal!

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)

[DoggiesAreTheBest]

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).

Ok thanks, I think I might go and get Red Dragon to read. I've thought about reading them before. I'll have to see that movie too. We were going to see it on Halloween but we ended up at The Ring instead.

[Chinadoll]

I forgot.... The Fast and the Furious ...Vin Diesel*sigh* how could I forget?! I own it on DVD

Also... Lilo & Stitch I took my little sister to see it and we both were crying when he went into the woods saying I'm Lost, trying to find his family. Made me want to scoop him up and hug him.

[Cookiebaker]

Oh some older ones that I still like to watch when I'm sick in bed...3 Men & a Baby...Look who's talking...Grease...

Another favorite is Chocolat....I saw that in the theatre & it was great!!

I didn't see the movie Red Dragon, but the book was good...although I think I liked Silence of the Lambs best of the three. Hannibal was definatly better as a book...


I have too varied of taste to pick fav movies..I like about anything.
