Top 10 movies

Not a definitive list of my favorites and in no certain order, but I could re-watch any of these movies and be enchanted all over again…

Hotel Transylvania 3
The Goonies
The Avengers
The Lord of the Rings trilogy
The Hobbit trilogy
The Twilight Saga
The Lost Boys
Let Me In (2010)
Footloose
Grease

And one horror entry, Thir13en Ghosts… because it’s scary AF and incredibly underrated.

Labyrinth, The Princess Bride, and 2001 all have to be on my list.
I’d probably also add Near Dark, The Dark Crystal, and Schindler’s List.

Based on your list I’m going to suggest the movie Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. I think you’ll dig it.

I won’t put them in any particular order but here goes.

  • Pulp Fiction
  • The Matrix
  • Donnie Darko
  • The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (original, not US version)
  • The Departed
  • Silence of the Lambs
  • Seven
  • The Goonies
  • The Shawshank Redemption
  • The Usual Suspects

It’s really hard to narrow it down to 10, i think i could probably add another 20 movies to this list without wanting to remove any of the ones that are already there.

1: Star Wars (not a New Hope that was a video thing but the original 1977 theatrical release )
2: Star Trek 2 : THe Wrath of Khan
3: Tora Tora Tora ( One of the best and possibly one of the most accurate movies about the attack on Pearl Harbor)
4 : The Good ,THe Bad and The Ugly
5: The Usual Suspects

(Will think of more later maybe)

I love movies with a surprise ending I don’t see coming and 2 that come to mind that really surprised me is The Village and The Tall Man.

In June 2010, convicted murderer Ronnie Lee Gardner was executed by firing squad, but not before his last request to watch all 3 LOTR movies which (unbelievably) was granted. Good choice, I keep all 3 on my hard drive in case I want to watch again for the zillionth time.

The most true movie quote: “All life is, is four or five big days that change everything” from Riding In Cars With Boys which is about just that, how one big unexpected day can ruin all your plans and dreams.

Rick and Morty: The Movie. I had to go forward in time 6 years to see this, but for the rest of you, it will be worth the wait. :slight_smile: (spoiler- borrowed power is gone but monthly sub will be $24.95)

I believe they made references to Bloodsport in the Maldraxxus maybe in one of the quests.

Gladiator, Apocalypto, Bladerunner I’ve seen and remember because they are that good.

I don’t recall much of the others except Step Bros but then that movie annoyed me. I think it’s a guy movie.

Anyway, I like silly movies so Megashark vs Giant Octopus and most anything with Godzilla in it.

If you like older movies, Harry and Tonto with Art Carney is a good one.
Anything with Denzel Washington is good.

The 1st, 2nd and maybe 3rd Terminator movies. The 1st Predator movie.

  • The Sunset Limited. An excellent movie.

That’s it. That’s all I can think of.

I remember this. That was so hilarious, the alien was a beachball with feet.
Perfect.
