Here are my top 10 favorite movies of all time. As with my songs, this rotates weekly. As you can tell by my reviews, I do like watching movies...alot.
1) Resoivoir Dogs---I love this movie. I like the pace, I love the acting, and Mr Blonde is incredible.
I've probably seen the movie 100 times, and because it was filmed on such a shoestring budget, I like seeing all the flubs and flaws.
But the story is incredible, and introduced us to Tarantino's style.
2) Clerks---Kevin Smith's first, and best movie. He filmed it maxing out his credit cards. This flip flops with Resoivoir Dogs as my favorite movie, depending on what I've seen last.
Highly quoteable. Our liscense plate comes from a quote in this movie.
3) Pulp Fiction---You have to see it about 5 times to appreciate the timeline, and then it blows your mind. If I had the time back from watching the first three movies, I could have accomplished many things.
4) Donnie Darko---I have both versions of the movie, the theatrical, and directors cut. The director cut is easier to follow, but the original is my favorite. It's all about Time line continuity, and the physics of time travel, and I guarantee you have to watch it about 5 times to sort of get it. The directors cut takes that away somewhat.
5) Animal House---My cousin got me into this when I was waaaaay to young to see it, and even though I didn't get half of it, laughed my ass off. John Belushi is great, but to be honest, the script was awesome, so everyone was great.
6) Nightmare Before Christmas---I love this movie. I like Tim Burton's style. I like his story. I've been frustrated with a job, only to find out that it was what I was supposed to do.
7) Star Wars---Not only was it groundbreaking technology, it was fast paced, and gave you the coolest hero of all time, Han Solo. In my dorkiness, I've seen them all a bunch, and have read a bunch of the books. I do like the extendes upgraded ones, but the first ones were magic
8) Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom---My favorite one, but I love them all, including the newest one. Indiana Jones is my second greatest movie hero.
9) The Bourne Identity---best action movie ever. Fast paced, good characters, fight scenes galore, car chases...Wow! The only thing this movie is missing is titties, and its so good, I forgive them.
10) Chronicles of Riddick---I love this movie. Vin Diesel is a crappy actor, but he doesn't have to be that good, because the less he speaks, the better the movie. But it's good action, and a great ending, and I hope Vin Diesel gets over himself, and they make another one.
Special Mentions: Blade, French Kiss, Forrest Gump, Walk Hard, Bait, Princess Bride, Insomnia (foreign version, though the American one isn't bad with Robin Williams), Shrek, Blues Brothers,
