Best ever movie

[Silverblood]

Best Movies for me

I don't have one single movie that i like, but there are a couple of different movies in different genres.

For Comedy : i just love liar liar.
For Thriller : not decided yet, either the butterfly effect or the Storm of the century.
For Horror : There is not a single one i like, but i have good memories with the grudge, not that it was great, but good memories
For Romance : not sure if patch addams is romance, drama or comedy... but i think that's the best romance movie.
For Action : "What are u gonna do, kill me with that soupcup?" Chronicles of Riddick, either that one or Equilibrium
For Drama : Dead Poets Society, still one of the best movies i have ever seen.

And i know i've been away for way 2 long, but i'm back.... and i hope u all had a good time while i was away

Kind regards,

Silverblood A.K.A. Kuweelee

I have a vision of a battlefield casualty being given a fag by one of his mates and the glorious Hitler brigade taking the mate to court for alowing him to smoke in public.

In line with Rich's Finally thread in Politics etc, I'll smoke wherever I want!

Why am I not surprised by this answer!?

Always like One flew over the cuckoo's Nest

Ya know, I never really understood the point of this movie. What was the writer trying to tell us anyway!?

All I got out of it was a guy that got sent to a crazy house, maybe by mistake (or maybe not), and tried to beat common sense into the "lifers" when it was impossible to do so. Thus, he went crazy too, and caused more harm to them than good. Does this sound right Rabbie? What's interesting about that?

Not bashing it, I thought it was a good movie myself, I just didn't understand why they would make a movie about this story (if indeed, I have the story correct!)

Who knows. Maybe because it's true? Obviously not acceptable by Yanks and not shown on national TV as it is in the UK. It's hushed up by the US dictator.

I also like Blazing Saddles. Especially the '****** work song' bit at the beginning, a nice twist in showing the whites as total pillocks.

How about Happy Gilmore!?

The US presidency is not a "dictatorship", unless Bill Clinton presides over it.

I hate to disappoint you but ALL of Micheal Moore's films have been shown on National TV in the US at one time or another.
Other than your prejudices, do you actually KNOW anything about the United States? The "N" word for example is never used. It is considered ignorant and denegrates the person using it far more than the person its aimed at.

Yes, it does...and boy did it take a long time for that decency to come about! You would have probably gotten shot if you made a comment like that back in the '50's (or whatever time the Brown vs. Board of Education news was running wild)...

For me, my favourite movie is L'année dernière à Marienbad (Last Year in Marienbad) and the reason is that it's just so watchable and open to so many interpretations. Bit of a dull film if you like your films with explosions and catchphrases like Yippe-ki-yay.

Yes, quite a bit, what did you want to know?

Well '******' is used in Blazing Saddles and that's American. I would not use it in normal conversation but in the context of the film I see no problem.

I thought this thread was about favourite films. . . . please try to keep it on track. I named a favourite film and a scene from it and you get all upset. . . most odd.

I bet Kens film choice would be Bambi, where the Mum deer gets her brains blown out by a gunslinging braindead killer

French film? Call me stupid, but I still had to ask that.

You forgot the tag line for the phrase, SJ.
