Your favorite Movie and WHY?

my favorate movie is "the pianist" its only movie that made feel wat a movie

Hands down it's Gone with the Wind. First you can't beat the acting of actors & actresses back then & secondly that movie had so many stars with so much talent. It was a very moving, funny, sad, & yes even tragic movie & I have watched this movie more times then I can count. Of course I have a few other favorites but that one tops the list.

i dont have one favourite, i have many which i think are equally as good as the other. for the purpose of this discussion i will just name three i like, i no particular order.
the first is leon starring natalie portman and jon reno. it is about a hitman who takes in an orphaned girl. its a very moving story with plenty of action thrown in!
the second is i am sam with sean penn and dakota fanning. this is about a man with the mind of a seve year old who becomes a father. when the child turns seven the local childrens authorities decide to take the child from him as she is more advanced. this one is serously sad and i cried a lot.
the final is candyman. as i am a big fan of horrors this had to one of my favourites. its about a gohstly figure who has a hook instead of a hand and he comes for you if you say his name 5 times in the mirror!. this one has a real tense atmosphere.
happy mylotting

Seven Samurai, by Kurosawa. few other films come close to the epic grandeur of it. A classic, a legend - this film has absolutely everything that should be in a movie: emotion, action, humour, pathos, a superb script and great direction of excellent actors. Then again, Yojimbo and Sanjuro were great, too!

I have to agree with Lou on 'Leon' ('The Professional' in the US) - amazing film. Jean Reno is wonderful (pretty much my favourite actor, incidentally).

One also not to miss is the original 'Shall we dansu?', which was remade as 'Shall we dance?' in the US. The Japanese original is beautiful and reduces me to tears every single time. No mean feat, that!

I think movies are very important because they are a good way to relax when you are stressed out,and a good way to pass the time when you are really bored or have nothing else to do,and during the cold and rainy days,cuddling up with the one you love,with a bowl of popcorn while watching a good movie is always romantic,and me and my fiance do that as much as we can,and I know everyone has a movie or movies that they like more than any other movie,and I would say that my favorite movie would be any of the Star Wars movies because George Lucas was a genius when he made the movies because they are awesome,I love the fact that it takes place in space and that you seen so many different kinds of races,who live in different kinds of conditions on different planets,some are friendly,and some are hostile and try to attack other races,I also love the Jedi vs Sith concept because basically is shows the age old battle of good vs evil especially since everyone has the ability to both do good and bad inside of them,I also love the use of force powers and lightsabers to fight,and I think it would be awesome to be a Jedi and get to wield a blue lightsaber to fight against evil Sith,and I also like the movie because of my favorite character Han Solo,who is played by Harrison Ford one of my favorite actors,who is a smart butt pilot who gets to fly the Millenium Falcon and he starts out looking like a jerk because he seems selfish,but in the end he shows he is a good man,especially when he saves Luke from Darth Vader when Luke is trying to destroy the first Death Star in Star Wars Episode IV A New Hope.

cryw0lf, I must agree with you on both of your top movies. The notebook made me realize that I was not with my first love:-(..... and P.S. i love you just made me wonder and appreciated how beautiful marriage can be. Another movie i think is really good is The Illusionist I really enjoyed the outcome of that movie if you have not seen it you should (Romantic/Drama). On the other side Remember the titans and The rundown are great movies to watch, even if you are a girl!

Titanic is my all time fav movie. this movie rewrote the film history. No one cares what anyone thinks about this movie, because it transcends criticism. Every flaw in the movie is easily overcome by the many amazing thins the movie has going for it. It is an extremely beautiful movie, and i doubt that many of us well see anything like this again. I have seen it more times thn I care to count, and still become transfixed everytime, with a feeling which is hard to describe.

mine is Somewhere in time, very good story and romantic movie of all time.. i also love the soundtrack... i just wish we could really go back in time just what like what happen in the movie

Mine is definitely Sweeney Todd (2007). I'm very fond of the story itself, and I think that the film was shot most beautifully. I'm fascinated by the visual aspect of the film and the cast list full of amazing actors. The soundtrack was also very good and I can watch this film over and over again - I have not found another film I can watch repeatedly without getting tired of it.

Mine is The Notebook.
I just loved that movie!
Thinking that there is love, such as
they shared is overwelming. It gives me hope.
Their love was so genuine and special.

Another one of my favorites is Pretty Woman.
That was a good one too. I would love to have
a chance like she did.
