What Is your favorite Movie.....

[sherenity]

What is your favorite movie??? Mine would have to be night at the museum.... Comment and tell me what yours is and your favorite scene from it...Sorry I accendently posted it in the wrong one...:cool:

[Corrine]

You know, we've had this question so many times that I am going to make this thread into a sticky. That way, everyone can answer it once. Then when new folks wander into the forum, they can read everyone's answers and add their own.

My favorite movie of all time is The Philadelphia Story (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0032904/)with Jimmy Stewart, Katherine Hepburn, Cary Grant, and Ruth Hussey! I can see it again and again, because the writing is so clever. It's so funny! :)

[Mr.Elwood]

Blues Brothers... :D

[Jason]

I Am Sam

[Whiteheart]

I Am Sam

Brilliant movie.


My fave is Shawshank Redemption

[woman4life]

I have a lot of favorites and none, if that makes sense. I do have two lesser known favorites, though. One is Shadowlands. The other is called, Miracle at Moreaux.

As for really old b&w movies, I'd have to say, Sargeant York and It's a Wonderful Life.

I also loved Narnia and The Lord of the Rings Trilogy.

And, even if I didn't already know Rob's favorite movie, I don't think it would have been all that difficult to guess. ;) LOL

[gomerpyle]

My favorite movies are: HOODWINKED, No Deposit No Return, The Shaggy D.A., & Whats Up Doc?:D :p .

Dantheman:p

[Andi]

Lion in Winter...I love Peter O'Toole!

[ExtravagantlyLoved]

The Wizard of Oz

[middletree]

Ok, if I may, I'd like to suggest a rule: Only one movie per post. Listing 4 or 5 movies kind of defeats the purpose of answering what your favorite is.

Mine is The Fisher King.

[danbos]

Narnia and both Pirates of the Caribbean

[Unstereotypical]

Empire Strikes Back hands down.

[River]

"Signs"
LOTR Extended Trilogy

[Aaron]

If it can only be one movie, got to say Return of the King.

[The Unknown Gomer]

Ok, if I may, I'd like to suggest a rule: Only one movie per post...I may just need to do 4 or 5 posts, then. :p

But in the spirit of trying to keep it to one's absolutely one "favoritest" movie, I'll say, ummm.. probably "Contact" with Jody Foster. The whole thing is good, but that scene where she goes zipping through the wormholes is a real winner. :cool:

I'm always left going "Whoa, what a ride!" by the end of the movie.

[Kasie_89]

Back to Future Parts 1 2, and 3! (this counts as one movie, 'cuase it's not complete without all three!:D )

[truster]

Blues Brothers... :D



"We're ahn a mishin from Gahd."


I saw this movie for the first time last week, and it was AWESOME!!!

[Buttabean]

My favorite one right now is "Memoirs of a Geisha." I could watch it all the time. :)

[mammo girl]

Lion in Winter...I love Peter O'Toole!

I loved that one, also.
Mine are Arsenic and Old Lace, Bringing Up Baby, Blind Date (minus the bad language), and the original Assault on Precinct 13 and can't forget Joshua

[Lauriegomer]

I gotta say "Lord of the Rings". I consider the trilogy to be one long mega movie!

[jabob]

Favorite movie of all time is "The Maltese Falcon". Incredible cast, brilliant director, and some of the best use of shadow in any black and white film ever.

[truster]

I saw "Shawshank Redemption" for the first time last night, and it was PHENOMENAL!!! Such a great movie, with so many good messages.

[WeaselInYerFoot]

Favorite movie is still Shrek.

I like the unconditional friendship that Donkey shows, and the ending gives a very good message. It defies all happily ever after stories.

[middletree]

I don't argue with your choice, but I do contend with you regarding that last phrase. Certainly, there are other happily ever after stories in the same league. Examples which come to mind are "The Princess Bride" and "Cars".

True, but they all are happy ever after once they end up with the pretty girl, or the Porsche. Shrek on the other hand, ends happily ever after with the ogre. Utterly incomparable by superficial standards.

[LuvJesus&3rdDay]

Star Wars (I-VI) Yup, I'm another SW geek...

[middletree]

True, but they all are happy ever after once they end up with the pretty girl, or the Porsche. Shrek on the other hand, ends happily ever after with the ogre. Utterly incomparable by superficial standards.
I don't think outer beauty is superficial at all. Shrek saw her as beautiful(outwardly as well as inwardly), which all men should do regarding their mates.

[thirday]

Ultimate all time favorite is.....(drum roll please)............

FIELD OF DREAMS.

Favorite line. Annie- "Hey! What if the voice calls why you're out?"
Ray- "Take a message.Bye"

#2 Thunderheart

[Jason]

True, but they all are happy ever after once they end up with the pretty girl, or the Porsche. Shrek on the other hand, ends happily ever after with the ogre. Utterly incomparable by superficial standards.

Shrek is an ogre so to him a female ogre is outwardly beautiful.

[ausgirl]

Brilliant movie.


My fave is Shawshank Redemption
Same here Rod, closely followed by Jane Austin's Emma Gwenyth Paltrow version (I know, chalk and cheese - hey I am a girl with a WIDE expanse of tastes).

[WeaselInYerFoot]

K fine. I stand corrected... for the first time in history! :p

[middletree]

K fine. I stand corrected... for the first time in history! :p
This would be a good subject for another thread, perhaps in the Word, perhaps in Hot Topics. Not the fact that you stand corrected, but the idea of outer beauty, and its importance.

[Snap]

It's hard to narrow it down to just one, but I'd probably have to go with Magnolia.

[newsgirl822]

School of Rock. Jack Black is so hilarious! I just love that movie and I don't know why. I like it when the kids pretend they have a terminal illness so they can compete in the battle of the bands. :D It makes me laugh too much.

[lilmikey]

I cant tell you my fav(I dont have one) but I can tell u one of em


The Burbs

[jumpingmaniac]

Facing the Giants!

[Salome]

A Walk on the Moon

[mad4brad]

Cinderella Man is my all-time favorite!

i also really like the Bourne Identity/Supremacy. (can't wait for the Bourne Ultimatum to come out!)

[Salome]

Cinderella Man is my all-time favorite!

i also really like the Bourne Identity/Supremacy. (can't wait for the Bourne Ultimatum to come out!)


I hear ya! In fact, the Bourne Identity is in my player now waiting for me to come and fold laundry!! :D I'm usually rotating between the Bourne Identity, The Transporter and A Walk on the Moon when I want to watch a movie I already own.

p.s. I saw a teaser trailer for The Bourne Ultimatum on-line. Looks good!

[thirday]

Cinderella Man is my all-time favorite!

i also really like the Bourne Identity/Supremacy. (can't wait for the Bourne Ultimatum to come out!)

I really like bourne identity, but I can't watch the second movie, to much camera movement. I had to walk out of the theatre, it gave me a terrible headache. I hate when film directors try to put you in "the action". So I was bummed when I couldn't watch the movie.

I did think all that movement was a distraction. And I also didn't think the second was as good as the first, although I still enjoyed it. Enjoyed it enough to say that I'll definately be in line for Ultimatum.

Hey! Maybe if you take a dramamine before watching you could make it to the end........if you don't fall asleep.:D

School of Rock is a classic at our house. My boys and I have watched it a bazillion times.

oh yeah, that's my other favorite movie! haha how could i have forgotten!

[Mandy Robbins]

The Princess Bride. Maybe that's why I married a handsome blonde 'farmboy'

[Salome]

Alright ...... alright ...... I confess. I can't pick just one. I LOVE the Princess Bride too. :D

And other movies I've watched a bazillion times are The Pink Panther series starring Peter Sellers. Now that's humor!! C - A - T - OOOOOO!!!

[thirday]

I
Hey! Maybe if you take a dramamine before watching you could make it to the end........if you don't fall asleep.:D
Maybe I'll give that a try. My problem is that to much fast camera change and color give me a headache. Their are certain colors that I can not look at for any period of time, even for only a few seconds.

Back to the movies. Has anybody else seen Thunderheart? It has Val Kilmer, Graham Greene. It's my second favorite movie. Takes place on and Indian reservation in South Dakota. FBI investigating a murder. Favorite line; Graham Greene to Val Kilmer. "You snuck upon me like a real white man."

Salome- I see you are from Illinois. I live in Galesburg!!

[Salome]

Actually, I don't think I've ever even heard of Thunderheart. Hmmmm.

Anywho, had to get out the ol trusty road atlas to look up Galesburg!! :D I'm across the state to the opposite side and up a little bit in Morris.

[macs#1fan]

Narnia and both Pirates of the Caribbean
i sooooooo agree!!!

but my #1 fave is sweet home alabama!!!!!!

[EmmoGomer]

Fried green tomatoes at the whistle stop cafe. Watched it SO many times!
Princess Bride. All romantic comedies really.
Shawshank Redemption, is just awsome.
I could go on.......yes really! :D

[EmmoGomer]

And other movies I've watched a bazillion times are The Pink Panther series starring Peter Sellers. Now that's humor!! C - A - T - OOOOOO!!!

We've been having Pink Panther eves about once a month - friends round having a real laugh. We had one only last night! "Not now Kato!!!!!" "I have stopped your phone frrrom the rrrringing" Classic!

[Sharon]

Bambi, Dumbo, Sword in the Stone, Attack of the Killer Tomatos, Killer Clowns from Outer Space (of course :rolleyes: ), Titanic

But as far as making me think and cry ..... The Passion of the Christ

As far as just loving it ..... Babe - "Will you be my mom?"

[LuvJesus&3rdDay]

Star Wars (I-VI)!!!!!

(Yeah, another one of those geeks...lol)

[freakysoccer]

Pirates, Lord of the Rings, Braveheart, Pocahontas, Toy Story, and The Shining.

[3D NC fan]

Salome- I see you are from Illinois. I live in Galesburg!!

I've seen Thunderheart! Great movie! Have you seen Windwalker? With the exception of a voice-over narration, the movie is entirely in the Cheyenne and Crow Native American languages with subtitles. I also really like Last of the Mohicans with Daniel Day-Lewis, Wes Studi and Russell Means. Dances With Wolves was good too!

[Rosie]

Oooh so many wonderful movies out there!

That Thing You Do
Princess Bride
The first POTC
Singin' in the Rain


....but for me, the number one spot would have to go to LOTR extended version.

Also had to pop in and say "oooh/aaah" for the A Walk on the Moon" votes! :P

[mammo girl]

[QUOTE=Sharon;1652504] Attack of the Killer Tomatos, Killer Clowns from Outer Space (of course :rolleyes: ),
?"QUOTE]

Me, too.

Got too many to list. Main ones are the Pink Panther ones with Peter Sellers, Night at the Museum, Oscar, Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

[lilmikey]

I have a few

Original SW trilogy TPM was also good

The Burbs

LOTR trilogy(yah I agree its one mega movie) My fave version has to be the Ralph Bakshi animated version

Rat Race

I know we are only sposed to name one but Thats too hard:D

[kiwisongbird]

We just laughed our way through Terminator 1,2 and 3 - now looking forward to 4.... such wonderful one liners... :) :)

Dunno what my fave movie would be - maybe Sound of Music - it always gets me - but likely any old black and white with singing and dancing in it - oh a a bit of lurve!

[not#1,butclose]

Signs
Forrest Gump
Pride and Prejudice (BBC and the new version)

[Thomas H]

I dont have afavorite movie....

[iLoVeJeSuS23]

ummm either Happy Gilmore
or
Forest Gump lol

[Mr.Supervious]

a very hard choice but it has to be The Lord Of The Rings

[lilmikey]

Frequency is one of my all time favorites. It has Dennis Quaid and Jim Cavisial(sp?) in it.

Not to get of topic but who is looking forward to Indiana Jones 4. I definatly am even though Sean Connery is not in it.

[boughtbyJC]

My favorite movie is The Princess Bride, and a close second is Pirates of the Caribbean.

[sandyandporter]

Without a doubt it's The Jungle Book. The scene/music with Baloo bear and King Louie is my favorite of all time. Kaa in the tree with Mowgli, the elephant march.... I can sing the whole movie! :P

[cheewiee]

There are so many movies... It's like having to name your fav. Food...

Plus my fav. movie changes based on my mood...

Ok seriously It used to be Shawshank Redemption... Then I saw "The Godfather".

If I had to pick one movie to stand out above the rest, it would have to be that. It is the only three hour movie I have ever seen where each and every scene was essential to the story telling. Above that, the purpose of the movie itself was to tell a story, not necessarily keep you glued to the edge of your seat, but keep you plugged in and concerned...

I mean Sonny Corleone was a nasty person, yet when he gets swiss cheesed at the toll booth, I am saddened...

I honestly care about these people whom are rotten dirty scoundrels, and even more-so for the sympathetic Michael. The "Good Son" who after the death of Sonny and the utter incompetence of Freedo must change his innocent nature in order to become the new don... and when he does so, he fully emerges in the role by fearlessly taking out each and one of the head of the other families....

Outstanding movie...

[Macsbiggestfan]

My favorite movies are.......Lord of The Rings (1, 2 and 3) High School Musical (1 and 2) and Pirates of The Carribean.

[Annariel]

The Lord of the Rings, no competition. :D

Some other ones that come after....
National Treasure, Eragon, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Scarlet Pimpernel (with Anthony Andrews, that movie is a classic :D), The Chronicles of Narnia, and lots more, LOL.

Blah, blah, blah.................. http://planetsmilies.net/tired-sleeping-smiley-38.gif (http://planetsmilies.net)!! Love ya Jase!! http://mazeguy.net/silly/rottentomato.gif

[hochspeyer]

I like The Longest Day, and A Bridge Too Far. Much like some of the other films mentioned, these two are part of a series (well, serial history, actually, and both written by John Toland, I believe) These stand out for me because they are not stories, they are history recreated in cinema, and, unlike any of the previously mentioned movies (I believe) these are truly star-studded flicks.

My #2 pick would be Kelly's Heroes.

[iamagomer]

Shrek is awesome.

I love when Donkey is afraid of walking through the forest at night. Shrek says, "I am scarier than anything we will find in these woods."

This is sort of true with us. We walk with God and are worried. Silly us.

[English Gomer]

My favourite film is Sister Act! Even though it was made before I was born, I LOVE it!

I agree about the Godfather but I actually rank part two slightly ahead of part one. I love the two stories going on at once with being able to go back and see how young Vito started the "family business" and the contrast it provides to the other story of Michael's continued rise to power. The ending scene with Vito's kids all sitting around at the table and Michael announces he's joining the Marines and Connie meets Carlo for the first time, then Vito comes home and they all run to him except Michael sitting at the table by himself is brilliant, and great fodder for debate and discussion as to just what was being implied.

[GomerGirl1234]

My favorite movies are tied between LORD OF THE RINGS and Pirates of the Caribbean and National Treasure. I love all those movies and I can't wait until the hobbit and National Treasure 2.:D

[NurseBettyLu]

Can't quite pick one. Hmm...True Grit, Paint Your Wagon, Gaslight, The Sound of Music, The Green Berets, High Noon, One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest, and The Ten Commandments, not necessarily in that order. Oh, and A Chrstmas Carol, the one with George C Scott as Scrooge.

[SueQ]

A Walk on the Moon

Mmmmmm.....Viggo!

[SueQ]

Actually, I don't think I've ever even heard of Thunderheart. Hmmmm.

Anywho, had to get out the ol trusty road atlas to look up Galesburg!! :D I'm across the state to the opposite side and up a little bit in Morris.

Hey Salome....I'm not too far from you...I'm down the road a piece (I-80) to the east about 45 minutes in Park Forest....one of my brothers lives in Channahon......A friend from college used to live in Morris....

[SueQ]

These are movies I will watch no matter how many times I've seen them....

Sleepless in Seattle
28 Days
Hidalgo
Sound of Music
It's a Wonderful Life
A Few Good Men
Fiddler on the Roof
Breaker Morant.......anyone heard of that one?......I know our friends Down Under probably have.....

[Jason]

Breaker Morant.......anyone heard of that one?......I know our friends Down Under probably have.....

Yes. Good film. I own it.

[SueQ]

Cool! Another reason to come down to AZ......

[hochspeyer]

Yes. Good film. I own it.
Breaker Morant is excellent, as is Gallipoli and The Man From Snowy river/Return To Snowy River, to name a few other "down under" -themed gems.

Another incredible film which I sat through beginning to end (bloody near impossible for me!) is Castle In The Sky. It is anime (Japanese animation fir the uninitiated), but it is an incredibly beautiful story and film- possibly the best anime I've ever seen.

[Jason]

Breaker Morant is excellent, as is Gallipoli and The Man From Snowy river/Return To Snowy River, to name a few other "down under" -themed gems.


Other good Aussie films:

The Dish

Rabbit-Proof Fence

[Jason]

I forgot one ...

For Matrix fans, Dark City.

[TN3Dmom]

My favorite movie of all time is The Great Gatsby with Robert Redford and Mia Farrow. I just love Nick Carraway in that film, played by a young Sam Waterston. I also love A River Runs Through It and Legends of the Fall. I must admit I watched them years ago for the Brad Pitt, but I still love them for the brother's drama (being the mom of two boys). I'm no longer a fan of Mr. Pitt.

[Thomas H]

Earlier I said I dont have a favorite movie. Well I do know
Third day documentary. :D

[English Gomer]

That's mine too! It's a good hour spent in you lifetime!

[Thomas H]

That's mine too! It's a good hour spent in you lifetime!

You can say that again.

[pamcharlie]

Humm Let's see i have a list and it is a long list of favourite movies too lengthy to list here and i must say that princess bride and pirates of carribean 1 2 and 3 are in the list and also shrek 1, 2, 3 (puss in boots is so funny) and also the princess diaries 1 and 2 and of course star wars original and prequel trilogies and narnia lion witch and the wardrobe the 2nd one is out next year and of course lord of the rings as i say i have a long very long list of fave movies and titanic is one of them too and speaking of narnia i think that they should make all the books into movies including the magicans nephew and the last battle ;) i would love to hear what other narnia fans have to say too and also i love march of the penguins and the matrix 1 and 3 and the english movie mrs palfry at the clearmount and of course i love amazing grace so that is just a selection of my rather long very long list :cool:

[Genna14]

[kh294God]

i am getting on this one a little late... my favorite will have to be Pearl Harbor

[lilmikey]

I have to say that my favorite right now is Band of Brothers. That is if mini-series' count.

One of the great things about it aside, from the action, is how one can get attached to the characters. It is a great film that shows great comadrie between the soldiers

[jessieissaved]

my husband made me watch those and I was glad he did

[lilmikey]

One of my alltime favorites is The Wind that Shakes the Barley. I like it because I love all things Irish(except for the Guinness as I dont drink) uh..............how shall I put this democratically........... .........lets just say Im not to fond of the british occupation and Im rooting for the "hometeam" and lets leave it at that as I get a look of suprise when I tell people where my political and military leanings are as far as the Troubles are concerned.

here is the link to the movie on IMDB

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0460989/

My hubby said it is! I would say it's half and half! The war bits certainly aren't girlie in the least. they should satisfy your blood lust (it's not as gory as Band of Brothers).
Check it out - you'll need your tissues I can guarantee it!

Current list of favourites -
* Shawshank redemption
* The green mile
* The Notebook
* Anne of Green Gables Series ( though i really don't care much for the final movie)
* Anything Jane Austin - Particularly Emma with Colin Firth - yum and Pride and Prejudice

Indeed. Even if they had correct theology, I'd never put them in my top five favorite movies.

Are you telling me that you call yourself a christian and you arent a Kirk Cameron fan!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Actually I like Kirk and Ray, but Left Behind has bad theology and is cheesy.

[BurningSon]

My favorite movie(s) are: The Color Purple-This movie is the best. Very good acting, and I just love it. I can watch it again and again.

Twister-I'm a storm buff. I love storms and all that.

[Ladylouwolf]

Only one movie...Well this summer my best rent was "P.S. I Love You"...Loved the humor and the rollercoaster of what not to expect....Well done Gerry Butler and Hillary.....Very well done....

[Ladylouwolf]

I love Twister..........Great affects...Living in Florida we actually learn from these movies.......also fun to watch.........

Great movie! And Ellen Page and Michael Cera are both Canadians :)

My favorite movies would have to be The Patriot with Mel Gibson, I Am Sam, Life As A House and Across the Universe.
Sorry I couldn't choose just one!

Love The Patriot (with Heath Ledger though ;)) and I Am Sam.

[ledzeppelingirl]

Love The Patriot (with Heath Ledger though ;)) and I Am Sam.

It's the same movie haha, only Heath isn't in the entire thing, so I consider Mel to be the main character...

I cry every time I watch I Am Sam. I also really enjoy the music in it. Rufus Wainwright did a fantastic cover of Across the Universe, and Eddie Veder's You've Got To Hide Your Love Away is the best version of that song I've ever heard.

I Am Sam is about the only movie I could watch dozens of times.

Who did Strawberry Fields?


I love you ... like the song.

[ledzeppelingirl]

Who did Strawberry Fields?

Ben Harper did Strawberry Fields. He is an amazing musician, love, love, love him.

[Jason]

Thanks. I thought he did well.

[ledzeppelingirl]

Did you see Across the Universe? I thought that the Beatles covers done in that movie were quite good as well.

[Jason]

No, but I'll add it to my Netflix queue.

[ledzeppelingirl]

No, but I'll add it to my Netflix queue.

If you know anything about the Beatles, then that movie will make a lot more sense. I had one friend who knew nothing about the band, so she had to keep asking me the significance of certain parts.

I know some, like they split two days after I was born.

Have any of you seen the Kirk Cameron movie Fireproof? I saw it yesterday and, I must say, I highly recommend it, especially for couples who are experiencing marital strife. The acting is a little quirky but the message is strong.

[pamcharlie]

Not yet but i plan to see it. and while i am here i love madasgascar 2 , and i am really concerned about the movie twlight since there is a woman at my church is letting her kids see it and it looks very dark.

[Rainlily]

What is your favorite movie??? Mine would have to be night at the museum :cool:

I saw today that Part 2 is coming out in May. I almost think they said in 3-D. Doesn't say that here though:

http://www.nightatthemuseummovie .com/

Must have been another trailer that I saw that was in 3-D.

My favorite movies...
The Mask of Zorro
The Sixth Sense
Raiders of the Lost Ark
WALL-E

[Salome]

A Night at the Museum, Part 2???

That sounds nothin' but good!! That movie was fun.

[muffin gomer]

My favorite movie would have to be The Karate Kid

[freakysoccer]

saw the movie The Swing Vote yesterday and i was dissapointed in unnecessary language but overall it was somewhat funny. and if you have one of those things for your tvs that changes what they say then the movie would be just fine.

saw Appaloosa back when it was in theater and again today, pretty good. has violence so not for kids but if you're a fan of westerns then i'd recommend it.

[mysterio]

:cool: daredevel :cool:

[musiclovr89]

Trainspotting

[kayechris47]

My all time favorite movie is National Treasure. I have watched that movie so much I lost count after 30.
My favorite part is when he says "Sadusky, I'm still not against you. But I found door #3, and I'm taking it." and then he jumps into the Hudson River.:eek:

I am going to watch soon, but while my mom was watching it the other night, I heard some Third Day songs from the Revelation album on it.

[reddy-freddy]

Just watched Madagascar 2. It's stupid, but very funny!!!
my favorite movies:
Facing the giants
Hidden secrets
Dukes of hazard (older version)
Madagascar 2

I love Juno anyone else

[thirday]

Night at the museum- trivia. Did you that when Larry went to the employment office, the lady that helped him is actually his mom? That's why I found it funny when he talked about feeling a connection with her and she said she didn't feel it. Night at the museum 2 looks good.


Oh yeah, my fav movie is;

1.FIELD OF DREAMS
2.Thunderheart
3.Sleepless in Seattle

[lilmikey]
