Favorite movies
 

I wanna know some people's fav movies and genres.I'll have to think about mine.

Hmmmm, definitely Gladiator as a first. Enter the Dragon, The Mummy, Coming to America, and others are really good. And al the Star Wars too. :D

the legend of bagger vance but crouching tiger hidden dragon comes in a close second.

Three favorite movies in order...

1. Half Baked... man, I don't have words on how awesome this movie is.

2. Gladiator... Come on, there's everything, got the sex, ass kicking, killing old people, killing old people...

3. Head of the Family... RENT IT FROM BLOCKBUSTER! The funniest movie I have ever seen. There is made action in that movie!

I guess I don't have exactly the same taste as you guys because I like more cult classics and wierd, surreal movies.My favorite genres are probably horror and dark comedy.(but I like anything good)heres just a couple
Barton Fink (Great Coen dark comedy/drama.)
Parents(Anybody seen this?A rare surreal horror from 1989)
Wolf man(A classic!)
Evil dead 1,2,3(2's the best!)
The Abomable Dr. Phibes(funny horror)
A Bucket Of Blood(Roger Corman surreal horror cheapie.)
Little shop of horrors(old and remake)
Oh, brother, where art though?(More Coen madness)
War of the roses(dark dark dark comedy)
Nightmare before Christmas(Best Disney movie)
Nurse betty(disturbing comedy)
There are many more but I'll start with this.
Anyone seen the parents?
