Favorite Film?

well that doesn't bode well for me does it, i'm thinking that and i'm also on my 1st marriage

well what can i say, it's a colourful old life....

if you get a chance, take it. if it changes your life, let it

Ferris Bueller's Day Off for me

Mmm - I guess I wouldn't be where I am now if I hadn't taken the chance. And I'm happier for it. But who's to say that this is 'it'

Favourite films....hmmm

The one I always go back to if I need cheering up is the Blues Brothers - car chases and proper music, plus John Belushi - who could ask for more? I probably know decent chunks of the script by heart now, but I always enjoy watching it.

Others:

Bullitt
Rear Window (the old version not the awful remake)
The Ipcress File
Dr Strangelove

Isn't the Blue Brothers a slightly different film?

top 3:

1: italian job (original)
2: snatch
3: casino royale

actually im being an idiot cos i have a 4th but its not a film, more like a series of films. the whole Batman collection

There are some dam good films and not to mention some quite random ones! Some are definatly worth a look and some that deserve a 2nd look cus bin so long since I have watched them

Watched a good film last night that's set in Ireland with some very good music in it called 'Once'. Might not be to everbody taste and looking at my list of 'manly' favourite films you'd think not to mine but enjoyed it alot. Mainly due to the music but a good little story too

Thats nothing Graham, a good friend of mine at work went to watch Mamma Mia at the cinema. What a puff!

Too many to write down. Can't really pick one, perhaps the original Star Wars?

Couldn't really chose an outright favourite.
But some are :-
Blues Brothers (not Blues Brothers 2000)
Terminator (the original)
Blade Runner
Dune
The Usual Suspects
Lord of the Rings Trilogy (has to be experienced on a big widescreen with surround sound - preferably the cinema)


can't think of others at the moment, but may do later ....

Spartacus....the original with Kirk Douglas

Killer Fish.....with Lee Majors

Its a mad,mad,mad,mad world...with Mickey Rooney amongst other stars

The Sheriff and the Satallite kid....with Bud Spenser and Joe Bugner

ALL BLOODY FANTASTIC

Forgot about....

Party Animal....... with Mathew Causey. Superb film that the Buzzcocks done the soundtrack to, this film was like the original American Pie.

Anyone who has seen it will know what the last word is in this quote
