Can't believe there isn't already a thread on this. Anyway, everyone list your favourite films heres a format you can try and stick to for keeping things tidy:

Name - Genre - Actors (optional) - Year (optional) - Description

Please don't just put the film name as then it would turn into a task when people want to know what the film is about, thanks!

Heres my list:

Fools Rush In - Romantic comedy - Matthew Perry - 1997 - When Alex Whitman (Matthew Perry) learns his girlfriend is pregnant, he gets a big surprise after his proposal on a whim.

Die Hard - Action - Bruce Willis - 1988 - New York cop John McClane gives terrorists a dose of their own medicine as they hold hostages in an LA office building.

I could list A LOT more but i'll have to do it later because i'm going out now.
 
Star Wars A new Hope - Kids- Indiana jones, Mark hamil, carrie fisher - 1977,1980,1994,1997,2004,2006 - classic battle of good vs evil.
 
my films dont need explanations, and having just got back from the pub, i dont want to give them :p


1. Predator


X. Tremors
X. I Robot (expected this to be really bad, but its a top film)
X. Scarface (after watching it, you want to be a coke dealer, not many films have this effect on you!)



can't think what to put in between, but tremors is too class to not rate


the matrix was an awesome film, real big shame about its following films.

I like how the effect it had on you is the exact opposite of what was intended and what I think most would say.

It is a decent film tho, Carlito's Way is however better imo.
 
The Life Aquatic (2004)

Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Cate Blanchett, Jeff Goldblum

With a plan to exact revenge on a mythical shark that killed his partner, oceanographer Steve Zissou (Murray) rallies a crew that includes his estranged wife (Huston), a journalist (Blanchett), and a man who may or may not be his son (Wilson)

:cool:
 
The Shawshank Redemption, 1994. Morgan Freeman, Tim Robbins, Bob Gunton.

The life of Andy Dufresne changes when he is convicted and jailed for the murder of his wife.

Get Carter, 1971. Michael Caine.

The scene where Ash is thrown through the forest and into the tree is amazing, do you know how they did it?
He was mounted on a big X that was on the end of a crane and driven down a road with crew running along slapping branches into him :D
