I am a big movie buff but I don't have time to watch at the movie house we just usually have a movie marathon over dvd. My favorites we're jerry mcguire, notting hill, music and lyric and legally blonde. I am a romantic movie fanatic its just very nice to be love and to feel in love as well I am feeling every story of it. I do watch korean movies as well they are equally good with cinematgraphy and storry telling. What about you? For sure you've got great recommendation for me to watch

If you love romantic movies you should look up a movie called "The Painted Veil". Wow. It is just incredible. I'm not normally into movies with love stories but this movie is definitely one of the best movies I've ever seen. It stars Naomi Watts and Edward Norton and it's based around the cholera epidemic in early century China. Sounds like kind of a weird setting for a love story right? Edward Norton is a doctor who's going to China to get the outbreak under control and Naomi Watts is his very unhappy life. It's a beautiful story, and it's so lovely to see how they respond to each other as they fall in love.

Yes, this is one of my favorite love stories too. And the scenery makes me want to book a ticket to China right now. And the soundtrack, I've been looking for it forever, the one with the children choir. And Naomi Watt's clothes. And the book is just as great I think, in a different way. I can't stop gushing about this movie and SPOILERS I cried so hard.

I like blockbuster movies produced by Hollywood. I am not always a movie fanatic but at times going to the movies can become addictive. When I start to go to cinemas then I tend to go once in every two weeks or so. But once my budget is out I will stop and then to start the habit back it takes time and brain. I mean I need to think about the cost of going to the movies as it is increasing pretty much drastically these days. Yes I might buy DVDs because these are cheaper but my cute and naughty cat kicked my DVD player and now we don't have one at home.

I have to say your cat is quite cute. I had a dog before, and one day I came home only finding that all my cookies are gone. I then reached to my "lovely" dog and was ready to give her a lesson. As soon as she saw me, fear appeared on her face and she ran away as fast as she could! At that time, I couldn't say she was too naughty or too cute.

I love movies too and it would be impossible for me to choose one. I watch movies of different genres and sometimes, those outside my comfort zone. I enjoy romantic comedies although I don't get to watch a lot. Maybe you've seen them already but in the romcom genre, I recommend Kate & Leopold, Just Like Heaven, and Three To Tango. I recently got hooked on to James Bond films in 2011. HBO did a Bond Evolution marathon then and they showed Bond movies from the first one (Dr. No, 1962, Sean Connery) up to Pierce Brosnan's last (Die Another Day, 2004?). It's a bummer they didn't include Daniel Craig's Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. Seeing all those in chronological order made me appreciate the franchise and became an instant fan. So, I watched Skyfall last year and I loved it! If I have to choose one movie, I can't. But if I were made to choose a certain franchise, I go for James Bond. By the way, I also recommend another film called "Hawks" starring Timothy Dalton (James Bond, Toy Story's Mr. Pricklepants) and Anthony Edwards (ER, Zero Hour). The story was written by Bee Gee's eldest, Barry Gibb. The story involves two terminally ill patients who decide to live their lives, or what's left of it. I haven't seen The Bucket List (Morgan Freeman, Jack Nicholson) but it's quite similar but very different at the same time. It's a perfect mix of comedy and drama. Hawks was never released on DVD so I had to buy it on VHS. It's available on YouTube though (Thank goodness!). Just search for "hawks timothy dalton full movie" and you'll see it immediately somewhere on top of the first page. I hope you'll like it if you decide to see it.

I like "In the Mood for Love" a lot. It is a Wong Kar Wai movie. Check it out. The cinematography is very good. The story is very simple but has a strong statement. I also like a Korean gay themed movie called, "Frozen flower'. These Asian movies talk about love and betrayal. The first one has a very soft quality as opposed to the latter that presents its idea in a very aggressive manner. These two great Asian movies really show subtlety, a very Asian thing. I like "Drive" movie also, a Hollywood movie. It talks about how straight a person could be. How black and white in differentiating right from wrong. Then "Ted" should also be included on my list. It is about letting go of ones boyhood or immaturity. There's much more that I really like but this is it for now. Happy viewing!

I prefer to watch Hindi movies.Hindi is my mother tongue.But the truth is that I don't get time to watch movies,not even in weekends.I think,this is the common problem with all businessmen who are the only male members of their family besides being heads of their families.The movies I prefer to watch movies that are based on great novels,preferably Hindi novels and stories.I have watched a couple of such movies,Godan and Teesari Kasam.The former is based on an all time great Hindi novel Godan by Premchand,and the other is on a great story by Renu.

I am a big movie buff too. I love all sorts of movies. My favorite chick flick is Love and Other Disasters. I like action movies by Guy Ritchie, ensemble films like Sneakers, Oscar and The Goonies, old movies like The Third Man, La Strada and Nights of Cabiria, comedies like Clue and Airplane, those with great soundtracks like Tony Gatlif films, mysteries like Gosford Park, science fiction like Dark City and The Matrix, fantasy like The Lord of the Rings, political thrillers like The Constant Gardener and Hotel Rwanda, legal thrillers like A Few Good Men and JFK, biographies like In the Time of the Butterflies and The Burning Season, documentaries like The Cave of the Yellow Dog, "foreign" films like Monsieur Ibrahim and Kitchen Stories, big Bollywood blockbusters like Lagaan and 3 Idiots, and big Hollywood blockbusters like The Mummy and Taken. And there's still so much more to see.

this is such a favorite amongst me and my cousins and classmates, a lot of people my age. And we didn't even know who David Bowie was when we first saw it. "You have no power over me"

Harry potter, twilight, batman series. All are wonderful. Old indian movies..i love them. Even there r many new movies like 'three idiots' that r just awesome

I don't have a favorite. I like most of the movies I watched, and it's hard to choose a favorite. Have you watched "Three Idiots"? It's an Indian comedy film. You will not only have fun when you watch it. You will also learn something, especially if you're a student. :D

Just like I just have movie marathon. So I love to watch 3D cartoon movies such as Shrek, Toy Story and the like. Moreover, I also love fantasy-adventure like Jack the Giant Slayer, Lord of the Rings, The Mummy, National Treasure and etc. Mostly I watched those movies of my crushes like Jason Statham and Brendan Fraiser. But what I loved the most is horror movies. Accordingly I am a Saw fanatic. I watched The Saw Series from 1 to 6. I love the twist and turns of the story. Also Final destination series. :)

At first Saw is confusing but if you can watch it again, you will then understand how the story goes. Final Destination is really exciting. Do you like Harry Potter?

I like watching movies a lot. I just love romantic movies. It is great to being love and be loved. My favorite movie is Titanic. I like the movie a lot because of its storyline,screenplay,cinematography. The song "my heart will go on" is just so touching. The role played by Kate Winslet is also admirable. This movie is great for all the people in love)).

One of my favorite movies is called "Cyrano de Bergerac" (the old version in black and white with José Ferrer as one of the main actors). It's very romantic and includes plenty of poetry about love.
