Shawshank Redemption. I could watch it a hundred times in a row and still love it.

Re: Favorite movie
 
I haven't seen The Shawshank Redemption but I'm going to get around to it one of these days. I read the story and it was amazing.

The Royal Tennebaums was a great movie as well.

My favorite movie would have to be The Blues Brothers. Great soundtrack. Fun to watch John Belushi dance. Great movie.

I think I would have to say Lord of the Rings...all three of them, but my favorite out of them would probably be the first one.

Happydude 08-23-2004 07:53 PM

Re: Favorite movie
 
The Matrix trilogy, unlike most people i liked all 3 movies and thought they were great...wether you guys knew it or not The Matrix has a whole lot of philosophy behind it, right now i'm to lazy to search for it, but it mostly links to the bible stuff...anyway, yeah, that's my favorite.

movies also worth mentioning:

Shawshank Redemption
Lord of the Rings trilogy
Gladiator (second favorite)

there are more but they don't seem to be coming to mind right now.

George Lucas should be shot for not releasing it on DVD. Screw Star Wars, Howard the Duck is where it's at :cool:

No.


It wont, i dont do that all the time, and when I do it, i do it to be stupidly ironic, on account i make so many mistakes.

And if anything, the fact your posting after every god damn post would make you like me.

Enemy at the Gates was good, but it was another one of those war movies that strayed away from the actual story of the war and goes into some other drama (Pearl Harbour, for example). Kind of ticks me off.

Anyway:

The Matrix movies
Lord of the Rings movies
The Last Samurai


Those are for recent movies, many others that I like, don't feel like listing them all, though.

GiMpY-wAnNaBe 08-24-2004 12:53 AM

National Lampoon's Van Wilder

Re: Favorite movie
 
I have way more then one favorite movie...so here it goes:

Kill Bill Volumes 1 & 2
Pulp Fiction
The Blues Brothers
Back To The Future Trilogy
Lord Of The Rings Trilogy
Half Baked
Clerks
Mallrats
Dogma
Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back
Chasing Amy
Beavis & Butthead Do America
Full Metal Jacket
Airplane
Young Frankenstien
Spaceballs

And Dr. Strangelove.

I'm surprised someone else knows about Strangelove, because it's such a weird movie. However, it's one of the funniest movies I have ever seen.

My dad rented it, and we just sat there and watched it. It's a funny movie, but it's funny on an intellectual level...well, sometimes.

What are you talking about, that movie was awesome, we could have changed the channel at any time, but we didnt. Its like we were sucked into the crappyness of the movie.

Like the fat girls that are so fat and ugly, you can help but stare at.
