Wow,what a Q.I dont know if it can be answered here.Most people here put 20 to 50 movies in the Question asking for their ten best.LOL.I'm getting a headache thinking this one over.Should we choose our own personal fav,which is almost impossible,or choose the one that made the most money,or sold the most tickets,Like Gone with the Wind at 2001 ticket prices,or Titanic.But,I am sorry to say I have never cared for GWTW and I only saw Titanic for the special effects .I like the history of the Titanic and the real story of the lives lost.I think I will wait and see what everyone else thinks.

playgames...i totally agree with the difficult task of choosing the best ever...since my favorite film of all time is Goldfinger i cant say that cause i'll be reprimanded by the JOBLO police unit!!

one of my fav films and a great film for me Is The Shawshank Redemption...so that is my offering lets hear 'em folks....

It's an impossible question. Different people have so many different reasons for liking individual reasons. One man's subject of adoration may be another man's heaping pile of garbage.

It is my belief that this subject may be given better justice in the "Top 10" forum... IMHO, but I could be wrong...

Shawshank Redemption is DEFINITELY in the Top 10!

Included in my list may be:
GODFATHER I & II
USUAL SUSPECTS
SE7EN
THE MATRIX
PULP FICTION
LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL
APOCALYPSE NOW
FIGHT CLUB
THE WILD BUNCH
THE DIRTY DOZEN
UNFORGIVEN

So on, and so forth...

The best movie ever would have to be:

Goodfellas,

But not on DVD because its a flipper and those suck

Kal

Speaking personally it would probably come to a toss up between:

Godfather
One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest
Fight Club

But then again that's just off top of head and if I got to thinking about I'd likely say something else.

Pulp Fiction

Why does everybody like A CLOCKWORK ORANGE?!!! I'm a brit and i thought it BLEW BIG TIME!!!! No way is it the best movie ever made!!!! My personal favourite is:

CLOWNHOUSE, closely followed by PHANTASM.
However, i appreciate that these aren't the best movies ever made! For me, it'd be anything from TERMINATOR, PREDATOR, PULP FICTION, CON AIR, GO, PLATOON, BAD BOYS all the way down to DON'T BE A MENACE WHILST DRINKING YOUR JUICE IN THE HOOD, NIGHT AT THE ROXBURY, HALLOWEEN, FRIDAY THE 13TH PART 4/3. There are a million movies i'd have to eliminate.

I am going to go for a film that is over shadowed by the directors two massive hits, seven and fight club. Yes U guessed it I am going for THE GAME! It completely blew my mind! I thought it was amazing from the chilling piano key repatition to the great script and crumbling character of Nicholas Van Orton my only moan is Sean Penn wasnt in it 4 long enough!

Best movie ever. Objectively-The Godfather
Personally-Barry Lyndon
Watch these two and you have seen the best of the best.
Now, for just a bombastic fantastic cap-in-yo-asstic gangsta-majestic time, Pulp Fiction
rules the universe. Cuz Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead.

I can`t say which is the best movie ever-different people-differnt tastes.Maybe one of the movies which had pretty big influence on me was Jurrasic Park.And I really adore Good Will Hunting, Pulp Fiction, Contact, The Thin Red Line, The 6th Sense, The Usual Suspects, Jerry Maguire... maybe that would an endless list, so I stop here.

I've finally decided. The BEST MOVIE EVER MADE is:


MENACE II SOCIETY (THE HUGHES BROS. 1993)

Pure brilliance - unlike those bullshit 'STAR WARS' and 'CLOCKWORK ORANGE' mentions. This movie is THE TRUTH. IT'S WHAT IS REAL.

Puck Bond... Nice Choice... Here's what I thought of "Goldfinger":

03-26-2001, 05:39 PM
Hey QUENTIN,I so agree with you on "Pulp Fiction". That has to be the best movie ever. I guess I like it so much is because of Quentin Tarantino. I think he is the best actor/director out there. I know your a huge fan of his,but so am I. Before I ever came to this bored,I didn't even know anybody knew QT,but thats so cool your a fan of his. Now I know im not alone.

Pulp Fiction
Resesvoir Dogs
4 Rooms
Jackie Brown
From Dusk Till Dawn
True Romance
Desperado, are my favs of his that he starred or directed.

I really liked Barton Fink, Brazil, Cuckoos Nest, Star Wars, Goodfellas, Rosemary's Baby, 2001, and Magnolia.
I'd say Back To The Future is the one I'll never tire of. I can't wait until there is a mini-me so I can make them watch the entire B2TF trilogy when they turn 8. Damned that sounds a bit too calculated for parenthood. Hmmm.

Hmmm... You deside what movie's the best by choosing the movie that you love the most. It's that simple. Why do you separate them?
And NO! -You don't deside The Greatest movie Ever, by picking the one that made the most money! 50% (at least) of the commersial movies are worthless crap.

The movie that I love the most (and The Greatest Movie Ever Made): Mike Leighs' Naked.

rupert_pupkin
11-06-2001, 11:27 AM
YOUDAMAN cheech - Naked is a wonderful movie by an English legend.

The best movie ever is:-Twelve Angry Men
