Well, what is it?
Highlander for me.
Blade Runner.
or Strictly Ballroom.
Life of Brian - probably
Swingers
lord of the rings..........trilogy tho.
bladerunner
Grosse Point Blank..
Godfather
or
Gran torino
or
Casablanca
or....
Dead Man's Shoes or La Haine.
brotherhood of the wolf
lord of the rings (but not the awful animated effort!)
Safety Last is a contender
I could probably watch it on a continuous loop
Withnail and I
Scarface.
Ferris Bueller's Day Off, cult classic!
or maybe Bladerunner.
Mulholland Drive - although still not sure I can completely follow it.
Hudson Hawk.
Ferris Bueller for me as well.
Akira.
Apocalypse now, Godfather 1 or 2, or Fargo probaly
i bought a vampire motorcycle
HaHa.. He said Hudson Hawk. Howard the Duck anyone..?
Termiator 2, superman 3 or robocop when I was a nipper.
Evil dead 2, pulp fiction and life of brian are all contenders.
For a few dollar more has to top it though.
Steel Magnolias - sad but has some of the best dry humor ever
Blazing Saddles - Hilarious, although not very pc, Mel Brooks is a legend!!
Ronin.
or Heat.
Sex Lives of the Potato Men.
The Shinning.
Dogtown and Z boys
Glengarry Glenross
The Thing
Shawshank Redemption without a doubt. Then pretty much any gangster film such as Get Carter (original) lock stock, Snatch, Pulp Fiction, True Romance. and the original and undoctored Star Wars trilogy.
narrowly' For a Few Dollars More'
Though it only just edges Arthur Penns 'Little Big Man
No way can I boil down to one.
2001
Apocalypse Now
Diva
Amelie
Big Fish
Repo Man
Once Upon A Time in America
Princess Bride
Dawn of the Dead
Citizen Kane
That's ten.
Ronin
actually, being serious
all the presidents men
Oh I don't think I could pick one!
The Departed
The butterfly effect.
Let the right one in.
MMMm, i'm sure there's loads that I've missed out and forgotten about since it's been a while having watched them!?
'sir henry at rawlinson's end'
AND 'the big lebowsky'
Silent Running was way too sad for me when I watched it as an 8 year old but love it.
Ice Cold in Alex has to be my top B&W war film, no idea why but it is excellent.
Lord of the Rings trilogy, loved the books, really enjoy the films.
Blues Brothers, just top entertainment and music, was on permanent rotation with Rocky Horror at mates houses at weekends through my teens.
Oh, and Apocalypse Now, Italian Job first time round and probably some others, oh yea, Star Wars!.......
Might have to go away and think for a bit...
Rocketdog (without random capitalisation) - I can't believe anyone else has even heard of that (IBAVM). My girlfriend tracked down a copy on VHS for one of my birthdays, after I spent years trying to find it having seen it at Uni. It was rubbish when I was sober.
Personal favourite - Ghostbusters. Seen it 100+ times. It was the only video I had as a kid!
Local Hero
beej, M. elphik's finest hour! Mr Morrisey probably wants it to be forgotten

Serenity
Currently Die Hard IV :o)
Top 3:
Saving Private Ryan.
Goodfella's.
Ferris Beullers Day Off.

Best cinematic experience - 'Tell No-One' (when you physically feel your heart beat quicken / strengthen watching a scene, you know it's a winner). Do remember coming out of 'The Matrix' & 'Pulp Fiction' thinking WOW! too, though.
Fave home watch - 'L.A. Confidential' (never gets old) or 'The Lives of Others' (gripping)
Cant narrow it down to one but:
One flew over the cuckoos nest
Le Hain
Black Hawk Down
Bad Boy Bubba (aussie film, very bizzare)
Goodfellas
Saving Private Ryan

Angel Eyes.
"Local hero"
The Wild Bunch or Porco Rosso,Get Carter,Goodbye Lenin, Betty Blue, battleship Potemkin,depends on my mood really, too many to name just one
excalibur
The Italian Job
If I'm pushed, I'd have to say the Lord Of The Rings trilogy.
Despite the misguided attempts at adding a bit of humour, the huge liberties taken with the story and the evils of "Hollywood Blockbusterism" it still was clearly made with a great love and respect for what's my favourite book and for every cringeworthy moment there's several genuinely moving ones that bring a lump to my throat.
It was fantastic to see these characters that I've loved from childhood finally done justice on the big screen.
Memento.
The good, the bad and the ugly. Love spaghetti westerns...
1 favourite is not possible!
Near Dark
Platoon
Miami Blues
Godfather pt 2
Full Metal Jacket
The Incredibles
Angel Heart (just for Lisa Bonet)
Catpeople (just for N...)
The Departed
Blue Velvet
Amazing that Highlander is someone's favourite - it's the only film I've ever walked out of!
Blues Brothers
Memento
I watched that the first time drunk, then again in the morning with a hangover, still confused the hell out of me, boy am I thick 😉
Can't just pick one but the top film is just pipping it from my choices
Seven
Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
Pulp Fiction
Life Of Brian
Saving Private Ryan
Heat
Couldn't say an absolute favourite but top five would be
Bladerunner
Fight Club
Aliens
Terminator 2
The Dark Knight

[i]Access the special features section of the DVD. Wait for the 'Memento Mori' picture to move and the pic of Leonard with a pic in his mouth to take up most of the screen (best wait for the words 'Memento Mori' to be barely visible at the edge of the screen). Press enter/play. A screen will come up telling you you have found the hidden version of the film. Click on 'Play'.
And then watch the film in chronological order including the end credits rolling backwards at the beginning and the opening segment running forwards.[/i]
SHORT VERSION FOR REGION 1 When The Pictures start to appear PUSH the " NEXT " button to skip to the next section. Once you do that you will then come to the menu
. PUSH the " NEXT " button again and wait up to 10 seconds. The Movie Will Start, If it does not then you failed to do this properly, which is VERY RARE!
Four weddings and a funeral.
Coat is on, hand is on door handle.
Like the rest, I couldn't just say one but:
