Top ten movies are a tricky thing to pick because you have to factor in genre and airdates. Movies made in the 60's are not going to have the visual flare of todays movies but for the most part the storis are usually a hell of a lot better. Well I'll try to break down my top 10...
10...Bridge On The River Kwai
9...The Thing (Kurt Russell)
8...Return Of The Living Dead
7...The Green Mile
6...The Iron Giant
5...Rear Window
4...Sleepy Hollow/Edward Scissorhands
3...Pulp Fiction
2...Shawshank Redemption
1...The Untouchables (Sean Connery)

Now as I said it's hard to break down my favorites because I love all movies. You'll notice a very wide variety of movies in my list because, as is the case with Iron Giant, I don't limit myself to certain movies just because they're aimed at a certain audience.Please e-mail me if you agree or disagree with my selections. I'm curious to hear what other movie lovers think of my list. E-mail addy is biteme1648@earthlink.net
