Well you're not gonna get people's real favorite movies if they have to fit that criteria now are ya?

I don't know what you mean by mystic if ya don't explain what ya mean.

And my favorite movie was made before 1980 so...can we say our favorite movie without fitting in this criteria please?

Yeah, some of the best movies are animated! Anyway, my favorite movies would definitely have to be The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. I was a Ringer before the movies even came about, so I was pretty pleased with them... although if I had to choose, The Two Towers would be my favorite. The Battle of Helm's Deep just won it over for me.

But seeing as how you're a fellow Orli fan, you probably like those movies too! Pirates of the Carribbean was great also. ^_^

Yea, ok k what are peoples (anytype) favorite movies? And yes Ive seen all the Lord of the Rings, and have them all,and Ive seen Pirates fo the Carribbean too, and have that ,and seen Troy and that was ASOME!!!! ^_^ and Im gana bye that when it comes out.

I don't have a specific favourite movie. I go through times when a certain movie is my favourite above another. Here's my list the few I alternate between.

Ben Hur: A Tale of the Christ (1957 version)
Flawed but brilliant. A young man seeking revenge against the Roman Empire (and his former best friend) keep crossing paths with Christ.

Seven Samurai
A Village hires some samurai to fight some bandits. Has some of the best acting you'd ever find.

Casablanca
"You must remember this...." An all time classic.

Alfred Hitchcock's "Vertigo"
A man with a fear of heights is asked to follow around an old-friend's wife who may who is having some trouble. To reveal anymore would be a crime against movie-buffs.

Fargo
Joel and Ethan Coen's tragic-comedy ode to Minnesota as well as a "Crime doesn't pay" parable. A used car-salesman hires two goons to kidnap his wife so that her rich father could pay a ransom. Everything goes HORRIBLY wrong! Soon on the criminals trails are Marge Gunderson...a pregnant female sherrif from Brainerd, Min.

Spirited Away
You know this one, I'm certain.

Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro
The first movie directed by Miyazaki (Spirited Away) is flawed, uneven, but more fun that most live action movies in the same genre!! Who cares if FIATs can't drive up cliffs!

The General (1928 silent movie)
Buster Keaton (who inspired Jackie Chan) plays a Civil War rail-road engineer who's favourite locomotive is stolen with his girlfriend on board. He starts to chase them on a bicycle and finally another locomotive. Not many movies feature locomotive chases.

The Gold Rush (Charlie Chaplin silent film)
A Little Tramp goes to the Klondike to find some gold. Gets into one adventure after another and falls in love with a dance-hall girl. Melodramatic, but if you can stop being a snob and shun old silent movies, then this is a treat. See Chaplin eat his own shoe!!

Bridge on the River Kwai
Semi-Epic movie about a Colonel during WW2 who loses his common sense and gets obsessed with building a bridge over the river Kwai, even if it means helping the enemy.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
The best Spaghetti Western ever made, it's also pretty ludicrous...but who cares? One of the best epics featuring an anti-hero (or a trio of them).

10.Mystery Science Theater: The Movie
9...A Goofy Movie (got most of the songs memorized...)
8...Spiderman
7...Secret of Nimh
6...Two Towers / Fellowship of the Ring
5...Blade Runner
4...Frequency
3...Donnie Darko
2...Return of the King (still waiting for the extended version)
1...Tied: Passion of the Christ and To End All Wars. Both of the Christian movies (one catholic, one protestant), both of them about the only Christian movies that don't suck.

PETER PAN!---(2003) ^__^' *must stay calm*
Nightmare before Christmas---tha Bomb!!
Cowboy Bebop---i saw it in the movie theater! even better!
Cecil B. Demented--- not for kids lol
Balto--- makes me all jolly? lol
HellBoy--- haha i like i like
kiki's delivery service--- who doesnt like?
The Hot Chick--- lol
The New Guy---hahahahaha

Of course there are many good movies I enjoy, but somehow every summer I always watch "You've Got Mail." ^_^ 1) E-mail and AIM; 2) Books/bookstores; 3) New York. Whee~!

I'm a movie fanatic!!I love all ROCKY films,TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES, all the TERMINATERS,SLING BLADE,SPIDERMAN,the MATRIX TRILOGY,WHAT'S EATING GILBERT GRAPE,AWAKENINGS,ROMEO and JULIET(the newer version),WATERBOY,KUNG POW,(there are just too many)

Oh faye reminded me I liked Rocky heh. Rocky 1, 2, and 3 are ok but after that they get pretty bad.

<<edit>>

theres so many.....up at the top would be spirited away and donnie darko, then in no real order ferris buellers day off, cowboybebop:the movie, big fish, the passion of christ, xmen 1&2, all batman movies(except last one), and the list goes on.....I like most anything by tim burton or hayao miyazaki. there are others that are probably better then what i listed but i cant think of them right now.

o yeah and kill bill

Bourne Identity and Supremacy
Last Exile
.Hack//Signs
Lord of the Rings
Star Wars
There are many more that are good but these are the ones I like the best.

My favorites are:
Hangman's Curse, Finding Nemo
Soldier, Johnny English
X-men, Spiderman, & 2
Miss Congeniality, Bulletproof Monk
Master of Disguise, Meltdown

I think that's all of them. They aren't in any particular order though.

Full Metal Jacket, The Crow, Sling Blade

Oh, wait, one more: Extreme Days
That movie was super funny!
