Top 10 Movies

[Asht_200]

So time for a round up again. This isn't the top 10 best films you have seen... Your top 10 favourite movies.

For me:

1. Drive (2011) Brilliant acting, great car chases and sensational soundtrack
2. Tron Legacy - Brilliant film, brilliant Soundtrack
3. The Dark Knight Rises - I'm going against many saying this
4. Black Hawk Down - has me on the edge of my seat every time I watch this
5. Bourne Supremacy - the best of the first 3. Paul Greengrass is an amazing director
6. The Hunger Games - not much to say. Great story, great acting, great soundtrack and fit bird
7. South Park, Bigger Longer Un Cut. What can you say. Musical fit for broadway. Anyone who can fit a fart sequence into where a tap-dance should fit is a genius
8. Old School - I want to join a fraternity, end of
9. Wolf of Wall Street - LUDES!
10. Die Hard - It is the film to show off any sound system

Nice list.

I made mine from the ones I tend to re-watch the most

Interstellar and the Martian should probably be on there then

[sideways14a]

Yeah interstellar is good, worth a pop.
Quite enjoy some of the new Marvel films but most of them are just popcorn fodder.

I enjoy them, but only watch them once. Hence not on top 10. Nolan's Batman gets more plays

[Zornyan]

hmm

1.scarface, awesome film that I've lost count of how many times I've seen "don't you dare **** me"
2.star wars return of the Jedi, dunno why this just captivated me as a child.
3.the godfather, need I say more?
4.aliens, love all hr gigers work, really twisted in a cool way.
5.evil dead (newer version) because gore is awesome.
6. cabin in the woods, takes the piss out of alot of horror films yet is good in its own sense.
7. I spit on your grave, ****ed up on another level, but good in my books for true evil and showing how bad mankind can be.
8. Shawshank redemption, such an amazing classic film, watched this so many times over my life.
9.shutter island, the only film to really have amazing plot twists and keep me guessing at every turn.
10. the ring, watched it back when I was like 11 years old? gave me nightmares for WEEKS, but started my love of horror films off.

[Sidewaysfun]

1. Predator
2. Topgun
3. Bad Boys
4. Days of Thunder
5. Terminator 2
6. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
7. Face Off
8. Blues Brothers
9. Universal Soldier (I'm all ears! )
10. Lethal Weapon 2/Die Hard with Vengeance (can't pick between the two)

As you can see, there seems to be a general theme here... What can I say, i'm an action junkie

I have judged these on the sheer amount of times they have been watched in my life.

All of the above get smashed by the TV series Band of Brothers. That takes the crown for being my favourite all time bit of TV entertainment. I doubt it will ever get knocked off the Top

There are some seriously good films on that list... Shawshank, Godfather, Aliens, Scarface.....

But are they the films you watch over and over again?

Shawshank is my best film ever, but only watched it 5 times since it came out

[Asht_200]

1. Predator
2. Topgun
3. Bad Boys
4. Days of Thunder
5. Terminator 2
6. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

Number of TV shows could knock off Band of Brothers.....

The Unit
Game of Thrones
Breaking Bad
Dexter
The Shield etc

But I divulge.....

That is a seriously good list. How could I leave out Days of Thunder or Top Gun? I can leave Predator and T2 alone, I don't watch them that much. And I preferred Broken Arrow to Face Off

Shawshank is my best film ever, but only watched it 5 times since it came out

yep, watch scarface at least 20 times over the years, shawshank maybe 10-15?

I don't watch many films more than once, anything that gets more than a single view is a winner imo.

also, note able mention to American hustle, saw that when it came out and was very very good. oh and 300, again love the film. just didn't make it high enough up my list

I think the only film I have watched on purpose multiple times is Kung Pow. How do you have a couple of hours to spare to watch something where you know what will happen? Seems like a random thing to do, but I am on the random side I guess.

[Asht_200]

I am embarrassed to say, the only film that has ever made me shed a tear is........


And was recent.....






Armageddon

It was difficult to choose between Face Off and Con Air.

[mr_pea]

Top ten films for me to watch over and over (in no real order):
Trainspotting
Face (and not Face Off)
The Crow
Dark Knight Rises
Die Hard
Young Guns
The Matrix
Bill & Ted
The Sting
Dark City

Plenty more that I will watch repeatedly, but if they're on, I have no choice!

[mr_pea]

Actually, I need to do another list as well

[Sidewaysfun]

The crow is a great shout. Forgotten about that little gem

for me it's whenever I've been bored, or if friends haven't seen it, then it's my duty to introduce them to it.

and my Mrs, she'd never seen a single star wars, Alien, scarface or godfather film.

[Jonny Wilkinson]

Not really a list of mostly action movies that have been posted so far but these are the films I have in my DVD collection of 15 films that I regularly watch.

1. Apocalypse Now - The Doors opening track I watch 5-6 times every time I watch the film.
2. Catch 22 – Just so cynical
3. Betty Blue - I like weird French stuff
4. The Witness - I like Susan Sarandon
5. Enemy of the State - Will Smith AND Gene Hackman - Gold
6. Dogville - Its so weird I can't help myself
7. Seven pounds - Will Smith at his best
8. Amelie - For the gnome. Uplifting
9. The Sure Thing - Just because. Of its time. Nobody under 45 would get it.
10. One flew over the Cuckoos Nest – Jack’s finest hour

Another two I have but don't watch regularly are Silence of the Lambs and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
