Favourite Movies?

What is your favourite movie?
Mine would probably be The Last of the Mohicans (1992) closely followed by Into the White (2012).

My sweetie says The Lord of the Rings trilogy is the best.

She's pretty awesome, so I'll go along with that.

But it's hard to gauge "best", because different movies seen at different times in our lives can have their own kind of impact.

That's probably a close third on my list. Maybe not...

Too true. My latest favorite is Now You See Me and I'm waiting for the sequel next year. Past seasonal favorites are the Home Alone scenes when the crooks get their due.

North by Northwest. An Alfred Hitchcock film starring Cary Grant, Eva Marie Saint and James Mason. Made in the late '50's...still exceptional in every way.

Shawshank Redemption, LOTR trilogy, National Lampoons Christmas Vacation, LA Confidential, Saving Private Ryan (altho sometimes painful to watch), and last but not least, Captain America: The Winter Soldier

(and many more...)

Depending on the mood, tops would include:

All That Jazz
Sleuth
Seven Days in May
12 Angry Men
Amelie
Billy Budd
Little Big Man
Se7en
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, or Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
Paths of Glory

All time favorite: Dirty Dancing

Second favorite: Moonstruck

Third, for its incredible leap up in technology: The Matrix

After that: All the Star Treks and all the Star Wars. I love thinking about the future. And good guys and bad guys.
