Casablanca
It's a Wonderful Life
Best Parody Film: Blazing Saddles
Nosferatu. The 1922 one.
Best Parody Film: Mel Brooks History of The World Part 1.
Get real! It ain't even in the top 3! The other 2 are Young Frankenstein and Airplane!
Star Wars, Life of Brian, Withnail & I, Dark City, Planes Trains & Automobiles, Psycho and some more that escape me for now.
Oops - just read the thing on one film per post. Sorry!
Best film I've seen recently is "Waiting for Guffman," a satire on community theatre filmed in documentary style.
"War of the Worlds" (1953)---the movie that started it all with state-of-the art SFX without computers, ILM, THX, blue screens, etc.
Private Parts.
Funny, touching, and yes dramatic. The movie has everything. You don't have to be a Howard Stern fan to like this film.
The Blues Brothers.
Without A DOUBT:CASABLANCA!!!!
Best: Princess Mononoke
One of the, if not the best: Memento
Forrest Gump
For Clint Eastwood Western fans it was Unforgiven.
The Princess Bride
"Merlin", the Hallmark tv movie with Sam Neill.
"Patton"...w/ George C. Scott...man, our armies in combat in Afghanistan should be watching this movie every night!
War is H*ll... G-d how I love it so.
George C Scott is Patton! Maybe not the most historically accurate but shure as heck emotionally stirring.One of the few war movies approved by the US Military from what I have been told by my military friends.
"EXODUS" (1960) This just came out on DVD & I got it. And boy, IT IS SO GOOD! WOW! They just DON'T make movies like THIS anymore!
"Earth Vs. The Flying Saucers" (1957) The granddaddy of all sci-fi movies. All the animation was done flawlessly BY HAND! Top THAT, George Lucas!
The Quiet Man 1952 Starring John Wayne and Katherine Ohara. The best Love/ Romance/Comedy ever!!!!
