Jaws, the original summer blockbuster!

I didn't put Jaws as my number 1 but gave it a special mention and pleased to see it's name mentioned so ofter here. I think like all the best films they elvolve as you keep coming back.

When I was a kid I liked Jaws because it was a movie about a giant killer shark, watching it as an adult you realise it is actually about a man stuck in the middle of a nightmare situation and asked to step up and deal with it.

I agree MookJong, it's less horror, more like an adventure. I also recommend the Jaws Log (book), its about the making of Jaws.

Damn tough to choose just one.

Battle Royale

As everyone has said, tough to pick one, but for me Black Hawk Down is up there.

The Matrix.

One of the few films that can be watched an endless amount of times and it's still amazing both in terms of special effects and story.

I'm also going to go out there and say that I also really really like Matrix Reloaded. Just love the Merovingi's character and that whole scene with the staircase.

Crash or Independence Day

Predator.

So many to choose from in terms of a top ten. That said, my number one film will always be Jaws.

Comes down to two movies for me

Scarface or Heat - completely unable to choose between them.

fantasticCG · 26 Apr 2014 at 23:35

Heat for me

John Carpenter's "The Thing".

I love Sci-Fi, and everything about this is brilliant. The cast, the dialogue, the acting, the old-school organic effects (no CGI back then).

Yes, of course. Who has time? Who has time? But then if we never *take* time, how can we have time?

Cause and effect.
