The Sacrifice by Tarkovsky

The best movie I have seen in the past ten years, love, compassion, romance, adventure, suspense, drama, sadness, happiness, exotic beauty all in one.

Avatar
Ghost in the Shell
Braveheart

[Janet_Girl]

30 Days of Night is a good one.

But for a good blood one I like

[Cruelladeville]

Thanks for the hat tip on that one Janet....

I have to fess-up to a weakness for all that's gothic vampirism....something my younger sis shares as an interest too...

I'm looking forward to seeing this one...

I do like a good Vamp Movie,  But I am a little partial to Lycans.

[Rayalisse]

So many favourites, I'll try to whittle it down (in no specific order) - Depending on my mood

I love "Cinderella" stories, like Enchanted, Ever After, Ella Enchanted, Princess Diaries

and other "fairy tales" - Stardust, Mulan, Princess Bride, Wizard of Oz, Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast.

Drama - Serendipity, The Notebook, Count of Monte Cristo, Memento

Comedy - What about Bob, Legally Blonde

And Science Fiction / Space Opera - Serenity/Firefly, Aeon Flux, Underworld (trilogy), The Abyss, Star Wars (classic 3) Galaxy Quest, The Matrix

And yes I cry during many of them.  My spouse says I'm a boob.

Cheers!

I dont have an exact favorite,but I like many movies from the 80s.Movies in general were alot better then.

[Pica Pica]

Maltese Falcon is sexy and good and exciting and funny AND HAS PETER LORRE - end of argument.

[MaggieB]

My top ten and the reasons I chose them:
10: The Birds.  Because it made me fascinated with the North Coast of California even though it would be 30 years before I got to live there and it inspired me to write a novel.

9: Man's favorite Sport. Because it made me feel what love might be like when I was a pre-teen.

8: Star wars. Because it made me feel that evil can be beaten.

7:The Incident. Because it let me feel what it would be like to finally and permanently stop people who torment me.

6:The Last Starfighter. Because it inspired me to go for it whatever the cost.

5:The Sting. Because it taught me that I couldn't predict the ending of everything including how my life will go.

4:The Summer of '42. Because I wanted to have sex with Jennifer O'Neil as badly as the kid did.

3:Different for Girls. Because I wanted to be as poised and  independent as Kim in her new female gender.

2:Better than Chocolate. Because it was set in Vancouver B.C and had a lesbian transwoman who was accepted by other lesbians and loved by one.

1: Raiders of the Lost Ark. Because it gave me courage to face adversity and it would become my and my wife's theme song.
