Hi,

What's your all time favourite movie?

Mine would be Casno Royale, best James Bond of the lot.

Sarah

Maybe I'm non-committal, but I can't just pick one movie from all time.
However, my current faves are: 

Stardust
Million Dollar Baby
The Royal Tennanbaums
I (heart) Huckabees
Stranger than Fiction
The Red Violin

Yup. 

Stardust
American Beauty
Stranger than Fiction
Donnie Darko
Fight Club
The Matrix (not the sequels)
Edward Scissorhands
The Lion King
And Land Before Time (definitely not the sequels!)

These are the ones I'd name off the top of my head.

If I -had- to choose just one, it must be Stardust. I want a DvD with commentary by Gaiman, dammit!

I posted my choices in another topic yesterday but I'll repeat it here.

"Hunt for Red October" ... yea I know so boyish

There are so many others that I love. I agree with Moira, American Beauty was powerful.
Pulp Fiction and Get Shorty were so amazing because they made you think and
pay attention and were so different. I know people hate those movies but if you
looked past the blood and gore they were amazing films. Same with the Departed...
you never knew what was coming and if you looked past the gore it was great.

But I love a lot of chic-flicks too. The Lake House, Miss Congeniality, The Holiday is a recent fav.

Lots of others, there are too many to pick one.

Hi,

I like some chick flicks, I don't know why I just get interested in some of them.

Sarah

I get so involved in the characters, it's like I become them... or I guess want to be
them I feel their pain, I feel their joy. I've not seen a movie since starting HRT
and I expect the experience will be interesting with my emotional response that I've
had lately.

Amanda

Harvey is my fave film...

But by god Moira, I adore all them films, It's almost the exact same as my list if you take out casablanca, American Splendor and any Terry Gilliam and Buster Keaton ones.

A Fish Called Wanda

Land Before Time (definitely not the sequels!)

My kids used to joke about waiting for "Land Before Time: the Yucutan Disaster" to finish the series off once and for all. 

I loathed the Land Before Time sequels with a passion, but my brother kept wanting them for birthdays and christmas. Geez, he even watches the series on Cartoon Network now 

They're just so happy-happy it pissed me off at the time...and so stupid...gah.

I confess, I never actually saw the entirety of Pulp Fiction...but the bits I did see were fun ^^'


A dear friend of mine loves to watch Japanese horror movies...I'm not a fan, but it helps when you have someone to cuddle up against while watching. So I guess I won't mind watching them with him when he comes to visit.

He even promised I could cuddle ^___^

eh, that triceratops was my favourite character. even had a little puppet of her from one of those pizza chains.

Hi I believe the movie that moved me the most was Titanic
I love pretty well most kids movies, especially those with girl heroes.

those plastic things made their way to the UK?

yep yep yep

I've still got it somewhere, i've got 59 handpuppets of various crapness.

My favorite movie of all times.

What Dreams May Come

     

tink

Ducky will alway be my favourite, yep, yep, yep!

I didn't cry when Littlefoot's mother died. I didn't get it at the time. But when I watch it now, it's so very touching and sad...I never used to cry when Mufasa died either, but recently when I watch it, I have to fight real hard not to cry...and that's a bit awkward when you're surrounded by people who are making 'your mum' jokes while the...ah, wossname...big african running things that trample lions...anyway, while they...well...trample the lion...I lost the point.

Just tell them I got something in my eye. *sniff* Yeah, and I'm allergic to...*sniffle*...dust...and...winter...*sob*

I love cry-movies...I watched Rent for the first time a few months back, and I started crying half-way through ('cause I knew the story and I was singing along) and it felt so good, I watched it again, this time crying throughout the entire movie
