We could all just post 10, or we could start arguing... :devil: .....I prefer the latter.

Some great films there, also some I've never heard of. I wanted to argue with Dingo, because he usually puts up a good fight, but they are all pretty good...

but, Dances with Wolves? top ten? good film yeah, top ten, no. What about 'A Man Called Horse' to replace it?

ANd how many of you slipped a film in your list that you like, not top ten, but felt you'd sound cooler if you dropped it in.

Oh and VV, you can't have 'Fidt of Fury'. Enter the Dragon (even though it sounds like my sex life) is a great classic, Fist of Fury is good (and funnily enough I would like my sex life to sound like this) but you can't put that in to. Be diverse.

And no-one can sput up that it's all your own opinion and you can do what you want, let's row, it's much more fun!

(Dingo - where's Smilo?)

To give something back to the thread;

The Usual Suspects
The Blues Brothers
Dr No
Leon
The Bourne Identity / Supremacy
Extreme Janine
Dusk till Dawn
Leaving Las Vegas
Caddyshack
Weekend at Bernies
Goodfellas

I can't count and some of those are shockers.

It's worse admitting you like a soft movie It took time for me to realise, that Lost in Translation probably is the best movie I have ever seen.

Dr No & The Bourne Identity / Supremacy - - aww common! 1-10 best films ever?

[Anonymous]

Dark Star - coz it's so bad its a classic
Star Wars Episode IV (A New Hope) - coz it's pure escapism
Blade Runner (Directors Cut) - Just Brilliant
Saving Private Ryan - incredibly powerful story
We Were Soldiers Once - Still makes me cry
Alien (first one the rest were rubbish) - excellent creepy movie
Being There - Peter Sellars at his best
the Italian job - Original not the remake
Indiana Jones (the first one) - a fun film in the classic sense
Legend - a great childrens/young adults film - enjoyed watching it with my daughter

Dark Star is a great laugh... damn, I should try and find that again.

Alien (yeah the rest is crap imho) and Indy is so close to be a top 10 for me as well.

Edit: I think the two "films" I have seen the most times in my life is Indiana Jones and Star Wars 4-6.

[mono_dna]

Hmm... I think Aliens (no. 2) is cool. 3 and 4 sucks though...

My list (in no particular order):

Léon
Lost in Translation
2001: A Space Odyssey
Alien
Apocalypse Now
Bænken (The Bench)
Blade Runner
Star Wars
American History X
Chinese Box

Especially Lost in Translation and Leon - probably the two best movies I've seen...

American History X
Chinese Box

Chinese Box was great. Especially the scene with the friend playing that sad song on the guitar next to the main character, because he had realized the circumstances - and the main character himself didn't know his friend had figured it out. See it!

Edward Norton was great in American History X and Furlong did surprisingly well, when you think of the performance in Terminator 2 - imho.
