best movies ever made

[Diddlez]

I'd ask you what the best television show of all time was but everyone knows it's Breaking Bad with the best comedy being Arrested Development. With that now out of the question let's discuss the greatest film of all time. This is a very hard question for most because there are so many great ones. Most people including myself won't have a clear cut favorite.

Some of my favorite movies include American Beauty, Casino Royale, Adaptation, Fight Club, The Departed, Slumdog Millionaire, and FUCKING TOY STORY 1 AND 2 FUCK YEAH. Oh and The Iron Giant becuase fuck you.

What are yours atm?

american beauty and casino royale? really? i wasnt a huge fan of those. the rest you listed were good though.

my pics for favorite movies: se7en, The Big Lebowski, Step Brothers, Terminator I and II(the only ones ever made. there wasnt anything after 2. the series ended with 2.). Watchmen (only if you read the book first though).

i dunno im blanking on my favorite movies atm.

Twilight and of course New Moon not

There are tons of movies that I like a lot ... but some that I really like:
Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Into The Wild, Inglorious Basterds, The Boondock Saints, Ray

There are plenty more ... but those are the ones I just got from my "watched movies" list which had the highest ratings
Can't really decide on which is the best .. but Into The Wild is definitely one of my favorite movies

I forgot to mention the classics from Quentin Tarantino. While only Ingloriuos Basterds would make it into my top 10 movies list, he is by far the most consistantly great film maker of all time.

I'd add Reservoir Dogs from the Quentin list

Tarantino is a master at writing dialogue. But currently, V for Vendetta, O' Brother Where Art Thou, American History X, The Untouchables, The Crow, Sin City, Sweeny Todd: Demon Barber of Fleet Street, Unbreakable, Snatch, Unleashed, Jackass 1&2. There's a bunch more I can't think of atm. You've all already listed many of my other favorites.

[Diddlez]

I'm also a fan of the Cohen brothers although they can be pretty much hit or miss for me.

Good: O' Brother Where Art Thou?, The Big Lebowski, No Country For Old Men, A Serious Man, Burn After Reading, Ladykillers

Fucking Borefest: Miller's Crossing, Barton Fink, Fargo, Raising Arizona

I haven't seen Blood Simple and probably won't ever, but I would like to see The Man Who Wasn't There. I also CBF watching Intolerable Cruelty.

Fargo was great imo. i love that movie. the pregnant chick is fucking lulz.

[N9ne]

robocop 1 and 2, firefly/serenity, avatar, black dynamite, spawn, cannibal the musical, terminator 2, starwars series, star trek movie (2009), o brother where art thou, princess bride, watchmen. inglorious basterds 1 & 2, many more

its hard to choose when you work in a movie store

Here is a Tarantino film maybe not all of you have seen before... it's called "Jackie Brown". Maybe not exactly the same as any of his other films but still a good one! I gotta say Kill Bill Vol 2. is one of my fav. movies period.

Boondock Saints is great. The sequel not so much but definitely the first one. Get the european (unedited) copy if you haven't already seen it...

Kung Fu Hustle is an amazing comedy... grab it if you can. Again, this is another one where you don't want the USA (edited) copy...

Just saw the latest Harry Potter film... Anyone who hasn't seen any of them might want to check them out - pretty good storyline and some nice special effects - i'm still catching up on these.

El Mariachi!!! The movie made by the director of the new movie Machete. El Mariachi is one of his older, low-budget films. He wrote a book about how he turned an extremely low budget into a masterpeice (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebel_Without_a_Crew).

Goofy comedies: Spaceballs, Young Frankenstein, BALLS OF FURY... Any of the CKY films - they are most of the same cast from Jackass but... I find CKY can be better.

As for TV shows, I agree, Breaking Bad is insane. For comedy I've been watching the office. Seasons 1-6 were hillarious. I tried to watch an ep of season 7 recently and wasn't completely absorbed like the older episodes but... it's still good.
