[quote name='moon_knight']Hey some of those movies are in my top 10 favorite movies of all time.
Don't usually see some of those in top 10 lists.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, I'm not gonna sit here and say they're particularly artistic movies or spectacular by any means but it comes down to the fact that I just can't get enough of them. While my top 10 obviously doesn't have the best movies of all time they are the top 10 movies I enjoy watching (over and over). I will say that Inception is still fairly new though and most likely to bow out of my top 10 in the coming years.
Sunshine, I love everything about it. I know a frequent complaint is the 3rd act swerve but with the cinematography surrounding that aside, I found it to be an interesting shift in the story.
Office Space never fails to cheer me up. No matter how shitty of a day I'm having, no matter how sorry I'm feeling about myself and life in general, I always get cheered up by that movie. I still laugh at a lot of the jokes and enjoy it.
As for today, my TV was on FX to begin the day and I ended up watching Role Models this morning (that movie was, and still is, better than it should be given the premise and how cliche it could have turned out). That was followed by What Happens in Vegas which was better than the average romantic comedy but still it was a romantic comedy at its core so it followed the same path. The premise made it more entertaining though and Rob Corddry (even though he was still just same old Rob Corddry) really stole the show as the support. The most surprising part of that movie was that I had no idea Zach Galifianakis was in it (once again, playing the same Zach Galifianakis he always plays).
Ran a few errands this afternoon and now that I'm back, I'm about 20 minutes into Godfather (pt. 1). I'd like to make it through both 1 and 2 tonight but with the cleaning I need to get done that might not be feasible and Godfather isn't exactly a "have it on in the background" type movie.
[quote name='dmaul1114']I don't really have a firm top ten list. Off the top of my head, some favorites that would be in or near my top ten:
Pulp Fiction
The Godfather Part 1 & 2
Original Star Wars Trilogy
LOTR Trilogy
Inception
Braveheart
O Brother Where Art Thou?
Fight Club
Se7en
Silence of the Lambs[/QUOTE]
Nice, I'd say that even though I don't have a few of those in my top 10, they're damn close to my top 10 (OG Star Wars, LOTR, Braveheart, O Brother, Fight Club).
[quote name='dohdough']Solid list dmaul. Godfather movies are up there for me too. I just pretend that 3 never happened...or at least I pretend to pretend that 3 never happened. The family tree turning into a circle still haunts me today.[/QUOTE]
Haha, I have the trilogy and I've yet to actually put pt. 3 in and watch it because I've heard it's so terrible it almost ruins one's opinion of the first 2.
