I class a 'favourite film' as any film I'd be happy to watch anytime anyone suggested "hey, do you fancy watching...?", even if I'd just watched it. All of those tick that box, and probably a good deal of others besides.
Really happy to see Aliens getting such a lot of votes.
Life of Brian
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Where eagles dare

I'd totally agree with this as definition of your 'favorites', and would happily watch those films again & again... and have done.
Gunna go now before we get told to get a room.
Oh, Memento. Good call sir(*). I'm determined to actually understand that film 100% before I snuff it.
(* - presumably)
Your presumption is indeed correct.
once upon a time in the west
the train
the lives of others

I did rewrite that sentence about 12 times before it didn't sound totally dodgy.
Forgot about Snatch and Lock Stock as well.
I want fight club to get a lot more. It's not about fighting and it's actually a very clever film, something that is missed by a lot of people because they focus on the fighting.
I'll add gladiator, blackhawk down and full metal jacket, maybe braveheart and platoon to my ever expanding list. Oooh bad taste and all the evil dead films, GROOVY!

It's badly named. I didn't watch it for ages because I "wasn't interested in a film about boxing" and I know plenty of people who've never seen it, and won't, for similar reasons.
Fear and Loathing, Dead mans shoes, Stranger than fiction, I could keep going and going, so I'll stop.
