We all talk about movies, what we like, don't like. What is your favorite all time movie.

Mine would have to be Raiders of the Lost Ark. For some strange reason I also always liked Time Bandits.

These of course also are standards:

Hard to pick one. (obviously)

For me, I'm stuck between.

"As far back as I can remember, I've always wanted to be a gangster."

"Traveling through hyperspace ain't like dustin' crops boy."

"We can't.  Why not?  Because we're being hunted."

Probably Dr. Strangelove

It is not advisable, James, to venture unsolicited opinions. You should spare yourself the embarrassing discovery of their exact value to your listener.

Just saw Shawshank Redemption again the other day - still fantastic after 100 viewings.

i'll have to give 2 answers.

Irreversible: for achieving that which most films can't. affecting you so powerfully, so forcefully, that you basically can't forget it.  it's experience is truly fitting of its name.


for something that I truly enjoy throwing in at any time, any occasion, that if i'm channel surfing and it's on I'll watch it, etc...

Tombstone

 Thumbs Up   I still can't believe Forrest Gump won the Academy Award that year.

I'm not sure I could narrow it down to one film. I'd really have to think about this one.

You can name a couple. I know I have a hard time saying one is my favorite.

Shawshank is in my top five for sure.  This is a tough question as it kinda depends on genre, mood, etc.  For example, I wouldn't put a comedy down as my favorite film ever but A Fish Called Wanda and Animal House would easily make the short list.

Cannonball Run

While watching that intro clip a question popped into my head - has there ever been a movie with more recognizable names (albeit "b" and "c" list actors) than this one?

For me, Casablanca and Shawshank will always be in my top 5 - as they are usually my top 2  Smiley

Far too many good, quirky comedies to list for me.
