Favorite Movies

[ST-321]

Ok, so I put down The Three Amigos as my favorite non SW movie in my profile. If I had put a more complete list it would have included:

Ghostbusters
The Blues Brothers
The Princess Bride
Forbidden Planet
Lawrence of Arabia
2001: a Space Odyssey
the Indiana Jones movies

and I am hoping to add Fellowship of the Ring to the list quite soon

Anyone else care to share their lists?

I like the following film:

Forest Gump
Indiana Jones

but what about...

Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back!!

Movie of the year, right there

Come on, Kevin Smith:king:, so many SW refrences:saber:, and Shannon Elizabeth in a black leather jump suit!!!:shocked:

Like I said, Movie of the Year!!

 

[Talon]

I am awaiting the DVD release of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. I have heard it was a real funny movie packed with Star Wars references and hot chicks! Woo-Hoo!!

 

[wookiee_cookiee]

My fave non SW movies are:
Pee-Wee's Big Adventure
Moulin Rouge
Empire Records
Austin Powers: International Man Of Mystery

Sorry about the "Three Amigo" comment. I have a buddy who is a huge Martin Short fan and I love to give him crap about his moives. I'm sure that you can find problems with the movies that i'm going to list, so I'll shut up.

In no order..........

Strange Brew
Swimming w/ Sharks
Excalibur
Good Fellas
The Crow
Highlander
Stargate
Fargo
Dazed and Confused
Austin Powers (both of them)
Alien
Matrix
Blade Runner
Sixth Sense

So there you go

:smooch:

Is your 'Highlander' pick all inclusive? Are you counting Highlander 2: The Quickening or any of the others?

The only good part in H2:TQ was seeing Sean Connery walk around England acting like an idiot. That ending was horrible.

-----

To your list I would add:

• Fincher Movies (such as Fight Club and Se7en)
• The Usual Suspects
• Aliens (I like the 2nd one better)
• Kubrick movies (2001: A Space Odessey, etc)
• Kevin Spacey movies (American Beauty and a few that have already been mentioned)
• Sam Jackson movies (Pulp Fiction, Unbreakable)
• The Hunt for Red October
• Total Recall
• Conan the Barbarian (if only for the music)

I don't know, that's what I can think of off the top of my head. Nobody has suggested an *unwatchable* movie yet and I think Am Shak's list is very decent.

Oh yeah, and every Kevin Smith movie is worth watching. Several times in fact.

 

[AmShak]

only the first Highlander. i have no idea what they were thinking about when they made the others.
:hurl:
