ok, so what movie is your favorite movie of all time?

mine is Gattaca (1997) with ethan hawke and uma thurman. i thought it had an inspiring story, great art direction, and incredible music.

Monty Python's Life of Brian.

SINGLE favorite movie of all time...

Short Circuit
Flight of the Navigator
DragonHeart
Transformers
Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home

It's nearly impossible for me to choose just one.

If I had to split them down by category I'd say

Comedy: Life of Brian
Sci-Fi: Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country
Crime: The Italian Job
Historical: Conspiracy
War film: Zulu
Spy film: License to Kill
Action/Adventure: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

My list:

Comedy: Monty Phython and the Holy Grail
Sci-Fi: Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Crime: The Usual Suspects
Supernatural: The Crow
War film: Where Eagles Dare
Spy film: Goldfinger

If I had to then pick one of these, I'd go with The Crow

oh man thats hard...hmm...i think that the most 'moving' or movie that had the most affect on me was Star Wars Episode IV

Goodfellas

Beneath that, but not far behind are Godfather, Godfather II, Gladiator, Gangs of New York, Gettysburg, The Great Escape, and Pulp Fiction (yeah, weird, 7 out of my 8 favorite movies start with G)

It's a cartoon. Optimus Prime dies, I believe.

Heres a few.

Comedy: Life of Brian.
Sci-Fi: a tie between Wrath of Khan and Star Wars.
Historical: Schindlers List.

All other categories are too clutered up to pick just a few.

Comedy : Airplane. The sheer number of jokes means you lagh every few minutes. And decades later I am STILL finding new ones.

Sci-Fi : Aliens. Simply the best sci-fi action movie ever made.

Action : Die Hard.

Inspirational : The Shawshank Redemption.

Horror : An American Werewolf in London.
