Favorite Movie?

Post by ChirpsAreFlying » 07 Apr 2011, 13:56

Hey guys/girls,

Well that's a tough one. I can't say I have an absolute favourite, but I can tell you which ones are high up on the list.

- The Lord of the Rings Trilogy
- Let the Right One In
- Princess Mononoke (Actually, most Ghibli films really.)
- Mysterious Skin
- (500) Days of Summer
- Robin Hood: Men In Tights
- The Naked Gun Trilogy
- Novecento (1900)
- Disney's Hercules
- Disney's Robin Hood
- The Star Wars saga (Yes, I liked every one of them.)

"He's like fire, and ice, and rage.
He's like the night, and the storm in the heart of the sun.
He's ancient and forever.
He burns at the centre of time and he can see the turn of the universe.
And... he's wonderful."

That's a hard question. I'd go with Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind or Spirited Away, depending on when you ask me.

Haven't seen that in a while. Nice film.

I just re-watched Inception and am surprised I didn't add it before. Anyway, I love that film.

*WRONG* a lightsabers length is not strictly set to 1m.

Light Greatswords appear in the expanded universe and even the basic sabres can have their length adjusted quite significantly.
