I LOVED that movie

[Evenstar]

that was a great idea from royal diva to start the " i hated that movie" thread. it really got me thinking about the movies i LOVE, so i had to start this

- the LOTR movies: all of them. the extended edition movies are truly amazing. i was a big fan of the book, and peter jackson found a way to translate that magic onto the big screen. all the details, the costumes, the MUSIC ( i'm seriously in love with the sound tracks) these are my favorite movies of all time.

-gladator. i loved the story, the cast, the action, the soundtrack. russell crowe was amazing, so was joaquin phoneix. oh he was so evil!.

- love actually. now normally i'm no romantic comedy lover, but i just adore this movie. i love how it all comes together at the end.



i'm also a huge fan of the star wars saga, the harry potter movies, certian comic book movies etc. they just don't compare with these.

I think there is already a thread about this?? Or maybe that was just a more all-around discussion of movies.

And Brickie, if that is your favorite movie, then I bet you really hold a candle for 'Beaches'.

 

[OptimusRhyme]

<--- One of my all time favourites

<--- prolly the Greatest and most genius movie and movie series ever created.

Funniest movie I have ever seen.

Excellent Movie. Has everything in it. Love, War, Peace, Guys getting thrown into giant spikes.

I absolutely love all 'The Godfather' films and can watch them over and over.

I watched my new DVD edition of 'The Shining' last weekend. The best, scariest horror film ever made! Kubrick is an absolute genius. I also love his 'Clockwork Orange' (although it's hard to watch) and 'Dr. Strangelove'.

'Five Easy Pieces' classic character-study drama. Early Jack Nicholson. Timelessly great.

'Forrest Gump' another one I could watch over and over. Great storytelling and acting.

'Sunset Boulevard' might as continue with the classics. What a great satire on Hollywood and prima-donnas.

Someone mentioned Cast Away in one of these threads. I'm not a Hanks fan, but that was a good recent movie, at least for me.

I have a coworker who told me about this movie a year ago. He's read the book and, having heard his son's accounts from Iraq (Marine), he says it's a story that should make for a very promising movie because the book is an accurate portrayal of how Marines are. He says he can see it being the closest thing to Full Metal Jacket being that they got quirky Sam Mendes (American Beauty) to direct it. This is the first movie I'm looking forward to seeing in some time. Hopefully it lives up to the hype -- which few current films do.

Exactly.
And yeah I agree, very few movies live up to their hype.

I just watched "Crash" for the second time...

While it's not really a movie you can "love," I was very impressed with it and the message. It's a powerful film in a lot of ways, and my respect for Don Cheadle continues to grow.
