Best Film you've EVER seen?

[OnyxPete]

Ok, first of all I acknowledge that many threads like this will have been created in the past, but at the time I made this there wasn't one.

 

 

 

Now thats out the way, I can move on. So, whats the best film you've ever seen? And why?

 

 

 

And by "best" I mean you're favourite :wink:

[sonicsonaike]

The Day After Tommorow

 

Jack[wagon]: The Movie

 

Edward Scissor Hands, or anything by Tim Burton

[indy500fan]

well, i know you said best film, but id like to have it clarified.

 

 

 

best film as in artistically you could say this movie is the best?

 

 

 

or do you mean favourite film?

 

 

 

i could list what my favourite films are, but "best" film could be a little tougher, almost impossible.

Probably 'best' in the meaning of: movie you enjoyed most. And enjoyed in a meaning that you have to interpret yourself ;)

 

 

 

My list would be:

 

- the Lotr trilogy

 

- the Matrix

 

- the Monty Pythons

 

- the Usual Suspects

 

- Pulp Fiction

 

- Braveheart

 

 

 

There's some of my favourite movies I'm forgetting, I'm sure of that, but I can't recall em atm.

thats what im guessing too, most of the times thats what these turn into. so i might as well go for it :D .

 

 

 

i really can only name my top 3 in order, there are so many movies that i really, really, really like pretty much just as much as these.

 

 

 

1. Donnie Darko

 

2. Leon: The Professional

 

3. Oldboy

 

 

 

now rounding out the top ten would have to be movies in all the different genres, dont know why it just feels right that way.

 

 

 

romance: Casablanca or True Romance. probably casablanca

 

comic book movie: Sin City

 

comedy: Dr. Strangelove or I Heart Huckabees or Clerks

 

sci fi: 2001: A Space Odyssey

 

war: Full Metal Jacket

 

crime/gangster: Once Upon a Time in America

 

hitchcock: The Lady Vanishes

 

 

 

how i feel about a movie changes constantly, so i just kind of threw together the top 3 one time and stuck with it. i really dont know if they are my top three or not. the rest of the top ten i just thought of right now, so they could easily be replaced. there are so many great movies that belong there.

 

 

 

once again id like to state these are my favourites, not what i feel is the "best". i dont think i could do "best" movie even if i broke it down into genres like i did. maybe if i broke it into genres, and decades. then again probably not.

[Trip]

I really, really enjoyed A Scanner Darkly http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0405296/

[Mr_Putter]

 

hitchcock: The Lady Vanishes

 

Heh, I saw that coupled with some other movie today at Walmart for a dollar. But I still didn't buy it.

[Peter]

Crash is my favorite/best movie, followed by Fight Club.

[Ragen]

Crash i definately a superb movie. I think it would be my no.1 as well.

[Bubsa]

My list would include:

 

 

 

• Apocalypse Now
   
  Raging Bull
   
  Taxi Driver
   
  Citizen Kane
   
  Schindler's List
   
  The Godfather
   
  Big Fish
   
  Reservoir Dogs
   
  Goodfellas
   
  Casablanca
   
  It's a Wonderful Life
   
  On the Waterfront
   
  Crash

 

 

 

That's in no particular order.

The FOK! forum top 100 has started today again, this week I'm receiving a couple of movies which have a chance of getting in there, and I still have a few movies I still need to see. I expect my new top 100 to be ready somewhere around next week, naturally I'll post it here. :)

[runesmithie]

I'd have to say my favorite movies would include:

 

 

 

The first Matrix

 

Return of the King

 

and definitely V for Vendetta

[BenBru]

Crash is probably my favorite movie. It has so much thought put into it, the storyline and just the whole feel of the movie really makes you want to watch it, and understand how each characters personality works. My number two would probably have to be The Cable Guy. That movie is just hilarious. Jim Carrys best behind the Ace Ventura movies. I heard the critics hated it, but everyone I've spoken to says it's one of their favorite movies.

 

 

 

If you havn't seen Crash yet, I definatly would encourage you to watch it.

[How2PK]

Alright, I got home a little bit earlier than expected, and decided to take a good sit to make my list. This is the list without the movies I still need to see and that still need to come in, so a few things may chance. I tried to find a healthy combination of classics, more modern art-house worrk, older art-house work and the newer 'mainstream' movies. I tried my best in order to give a good display of the history of cinema, of course this is impossible for me as I still have to see loads of things. But from what I have seen, this seemed best. Allthough my list of last year stood as a base for this one, a lot of things changed. This is of course because I'm a whole year older and of course a year wiser, movie wise.

Ignorance is not an excuse to not like a movie. Besides, no-one else is slagging off each other's film choices here, so cut it out. Or we could murder your choices.

Maybe a bit offtopic, but I don't want to make a thread for it. I just want to know what's the best horror film that looks decent and is a good movie overall (plot, acting, etc.) and is actually scary. I stayed away from 'scary' movies a long time ago because I just kept on getting disappointed. It's a gift to someone so I just want some suggestions.
