Best movie(s) you haved seen

Titanic has been for me the best movie that I had seen in my life because it was a veridic story and it combined romance with action and tragedy and the actors and actresses preformed in a great manner.

But for all here what movie(s) haved been the best you haved seen?

This is a tough one because I haven't seen a lot of movies. I would rather read a book. I would have to say that <<Le Huiteme Jour>> (A French movie obviously) is my fav. movie of all time that I have seen. Mr. Holland's Opus is a very close second!!

There are many but probably my all time best is "Gone With the Wind".

Falling Down
Galaxy Quest

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner
All About Eve
ET, Close Encounters

Either "Excalibur", "Gladiator" or "Exodus", with "Cast a Giant Shadow" and "Spartacus" close seconds.

Same here - Gone With The Wind.

From there, it might be Shawshank Redemption, Forrest Gump, among others.

I have many, many fluff type movies but you could hardly classify them as the best movies ever made:

any Doris Day movie
Yours, Mine and Ours
Planes, Trains & Automobiles
any family movie

Finally, I was really into Disaster films years ago, my faves there are:

Towering Inferno
Airport
Poseiden Adventure

Oh I almost forgot... Twister is great too. A little unrealistic, but I still like it.

wx247!!!! - how can we not mention Twister on a Weather message board! Thanks for the reminder. And here I just admitted I was into disaster films too. LOL Yes, that movie was a tad too far fetched but it was a good 2 hour escape!

Ocean's Eleven was a very enjoyable movie in my opinion. I also liked the LOTR movies. I know a lot of people hated David Lynch's version of Dune, but I liked it a lot. Holy Grail is good as well.

I would have to say Forrest Gump was good. I like Top Gun alot, along with the Star Wars Trilogy (the 4,5,6th). I just saw Phone Booth over the weekend that was good. I liked Oceans Eleven.

JCT777 · #18 Postby **JCT777** » Mon Apr 14, 2003 7:15 pm

Monty Python - Holy Grail. That movie was just too funny!! I also loved the "Naked Gun" movies. 8)

I can't believe I forgot this one:

Rain Man....."5 minutes to Wapner..."
"K-Mart sucks"

and my favorite from Ray: "Course this is definately not my room, and I don't have my tapioca pudding and the bed is in the wrong place. This is definately not my bed."
