We all talk about movies, what we like, don't like. What is your favorite all time movie.
I'm a looser, but not a complete waste. At least that's what Clive says.

The Big Lebowski
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've gone to find myself. If I get back before I return, keep me here.

i'll have to give 2 answers.
Russia has invaded a sovereign neighboring state and threatens a democratic government elected by its people. Such an action is unacceptable in the 21st century.

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