Ok. What is your favorite all time movies and why?
Mine?
1."Somewhere In Time" - Jane Seymour, Chris Reeve
-fantasy - just transcending space for love that is real and matters is worth the risk.
2. "Laura" - Gene Tierney, Dana Andrews. Moral of the story: watch out who your supposed friends are
3. "Glass Slipper" - Leslie Caron, Michael Wilding. Pay attention to who your friends REALLY ARE. Oh, and have a space you can run that is just YOURS.

1."'FOREVER' in love" lasts only 14 years.
2. Alcohol is NO solution just a bigger problem
My favorite drink is water. Call me Dasani23

Ah, Steel magnolias, LOVED that movie!
I really like 'quirky' movies. My all time favorite movie is probably "Dan in Real Life" just loved it.
I also loved "Little Miss Sunshine"
And pretty much any movie with Meryl Steep. Love her.

Ghost - Love story, comedy and drama all in one.
Not many movies I can watch over and over - I cry every time I watch this one.

"There Will Be Blood"
A great film that depicts the frailties of ambitious human beings and the ruin that can befall those driven by nothing but single-minded ambition, anger, and greed.
"Fight Club"
Everytime I watch it, I look around at all the *shit* I own, and want to sell all my worldly possessions and do something more primal and less superfluous. But I usually grab another beer and some more chips.

Shawshank Redemption - I love Morgan Freeman and I love how the story is told.
Good Will Hunting - the "it's not your fault" scene still kills me after all of these years.
Primal Fear - Edward Norton and Richard Gere at their best.
Devils Advocate - Keanu Reeves. Nuff said. Oh and the fact that I even noticed Charlize is a testament to her amazing performance.
Fight Club - Mind.Bent.
The Butterfly Effect - also bends my mind.
Kill Bill. So violent but so... awesome!
Pump Up The Volume and The Breakfast Club - old favourites, great soundtrack!
I also LOVE all of the Pixar films. I was watching them waaay before I had kids. I'm loving Brave ATM.
I may have reached a point where I'd piss on him if he was on fire.... eventually!!

Some good movies already on here. I'm going to have to say Secondhand Lions. If you haven't seen it, you should. Duvall and Cain are awesome in it.

I have a couple of absolute favorites:
1)The Sound of Music- because, well, Julie Andrews! Music! I love everything about this movie.
2)Gladiator- I have no idea why I like this movie so much.
But then I also love all kinds of older movies- Singin' in the Rain, Pillow Talk, Meet Me in St. Louis, The Quiet Man, Some Like It Hot, To Kill A Mockingbird, older Disney films, and a bunch more I can't think of.
Modern ones I love- Harry Potter, LOTR series, and most of the Disney/Disney-Pixar movies.
