The Most Awesome Movie Of All Time?

[Cakes]

I'm surprised it's only been mention once, but, The Godfather. It's the perfect movie. If you don't like it, you have no soul.

Just wondering what everyone would think is the most awesome movie ever.

For me, it HAS to be Stanley Kubrick's 1964 film Dr. Strangelove.

'You can't fight in here, it's the war room!'

Speaking of Kubrick, A Clockwork Orange was quite good. The book was absolutely fantastic as well, for that matter.

Falling Down

Inglorious Bastardes would be my recent top pick, otherwise it would be Seven Samurai.

Yor: Hunter from the future!

Not really (reward yourself for getting the reference) of course, I really like a lot of movies for many reasons, so its hard to pick just one. Right now I really like Silence of the Lambs, which I've only seen this year. Everything from the music to the characters is great and I'm really regretting not seeing it sooner. Honorable mentions go to the Kill Bill movies, Rough Riders, Predator and anything with Sam Elliot.

I may be mistaken but I'm guessing you saw the Spoony review of that movie too, YORS WORLD HES THE MAN!!!

OT: I've never really had a favorite movie I guess the original Star Wars movies especially six were pretty good

Fight Club. The movie and novel.

I noticed that most of the movies mentioned have been made in the last 20 years. So I'll go against the grain with my answer and give you two incredibly badass movies from the first half of the previous century:

The Lost World (1925), and
The Most Dangerous Game (1932)

If you call yourself a movie lover and appreciate badass f-cking movies, you cannot miss these two flicks.

Good choices so far! I'd like to add Clerks for comedy, and Memento for drama.

You sir have great taste in movies!

The ORIGINAL Transformers movie!!!

The Matrix.

Oh yes.

The Boondock Saints of course. It's so awesome. Too bad the sequel will ruin it for me.

And V for Vendetta. Best adaptation of a graphic novel into a movie ever? I think so.

I agree completely. I didn't think anyone would remember the awesomeness of the Boondock Saints. I am also scared of the sequel.

The best movie no one has heard about but me,
In Bruges.
I know I keep referencing it [small](to those who actually pay attention to my posts)[/small] but dammit it's fucking brilliant.

 

[Dirty Apple]

The Usual Suspects is pretty win.

Beautiful choice my friend.

As an aside, I'm pretty sure AFI has "Citizen Kane" as the greatest movie of all time. It's basically Orson Welles doing a 2 hour character study. Worth a watch, but I wouldn't put at number one myself.

My honourable mentions: "Ferris Buehler's Day Off" - "Jaws" - "The Sixth Sense" - "Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels" - "Swingers" - "The Good, The Bad, The Ugly"

And these are just a few of my favorites.

Tron FTW.

There are many excellent contenders. MANY.

But you know what? Name one film without flaws.

What's that? There's only one answer?

Indeed. The greatest film of all time, is Nightmare Before Christmas. The plot is unique and enjoyable, the jokes are funny, the soundtrack is unforgettable, the performances are right in with the characters, the visuals are filled with imagination... it's just beyond compare.

Dear god think I'm in love. Kidding [sub] or am I? [/sub] I agree completely.
