Favorites...



We were at some friends' house yesterday and were going over some our favorite movies of all time. After much deliberation, here's what made our shortlist of favorites.

Top 5 (in no particular order)

BRANDON
Gattaca
To Kill a Mockingbird
Tombstone (edited version, of course)
Raiders of the Lost Arc
Spirited Away (for its uniqueness, at least for him)

Honorable Mention: Real Genius, Simon Birch...and of course Muppets from Space

JENIKA
Maverick
Batman Begins
Pride and Prejudice (A&E version...however, the newer one is also good)
Hero
Bourne Identity Series

Honorable Mention: The Illusionist, Return to Me, Howl's Moving Castle (Japanese films are so creative), and The Incredibles (I laughed out loud...)

The Princess Bride didn't make the list? Anybody want a peanut?

Thanks for the list, Aim and I will have to check some of those out - the few we haven't seen.

Can't say I enjoyed Spirited Away. Artistic, yes. Unique, sure. Boring, ... yes (my opinion anyway).

Haven't seen the last of the Bourne series yet. Read the books between the first two movies, so I was rather disappointed in the second movie which happened to have the same name as the book, but was not even vaguely similar to the book. I'll probably watch the last one eventually once I've waited long enough to forget more of the books so I won't be as disappointed by the third movie.
