Quoted from vid1900:And that's a good thing.
Nobody wants to read 200 posts where everyone lists Citizen Kane, Shawshank, Shindler's List, and Godfather.
Those are knee-jerk answers from people who hate cinema.
I'd rather watch Polyester than slog through Birth Of A Nation, no matter how **groundbreaking** the critics say it is.
Thank you for reminding me about Polyester! Haha. Im gonna watch it later, and I hope its as funny as I remember it 25ish years ago. I just love movies with shoe obsessed perverts.
Sana'a

You will laugh 100x more about the Boston Foot Stomper, than you ever would from Duck Soup

Thank you! Hopefully I get to watch both today, since I have a day off work to recover from all drinking during our three day pinball tournament.

Extended editions only.
Quoted from xsvtoys:Extended editions only.
Weeeeelll OK. My son and I conned my wife I to seeing the extended version of thefirst one at theater. About 3 hours into it she asked how long it was. She shit when we told her. Good times.

I saw them all in the theater, but not having read the books, I had a hard time keeping up and following everything. Then we watched the extended editions all the way through, and then I was like, I get it now. Amazingly cool films.

Watching Shawshank Redemption again closely incredible film and a shame there was no tie for best picture with Forrest Gump.

Field of Dreams
Unforgiven
Raiders of the Lost Ark
All The Right Moves - Tie - with The Matrix
All the right moves was good movie, I still remember the soundtrack was great and brought back memories of me in my teens watching the movie With my buddies in my basement.
Quoted from DanMarino:You guys are listing a lot of great ones.
Couldn’t agree more and watching all the films recommended I have not seen before.
Late to the party but based on their intense impact on me after I left the theater...
1. Star Wars (its impact on me when I was 9 cannot be over stated)
2. Aliens (maybe the most gripping, edge of your seat, adrenaline rides I ever experienced in a movie)
3. Braveheart (went in not knowing much and was blown away)
4. Galaxy Quest (maybe the most perfect movie ever made)
5. The Natural (best sports movie I ever seen)

Probably not the blind side as of breaking news

Quoted from Pinstein:Can folks add an additional top 5 for international films?
Det sjunde inseglet (the seventh seal)
la vita e bella (life is beautiful)
das boot (the u-boat)
le grand bleu (the big blue)
la leggenda del pianista sullóceano (legend of 1900)
