Best Movie Ever?

[God Part III]

What's the best movie of all time to U2 fans?

I'll start off with mine:

Raging Bull, Martin Scorsese

I hate to say it, but this belongs in "Lemonade Stand."

But my favorite film is Kieslowski's "Red."

don't be a hater

Have you seen any of the "Dekalog" series.


They come to the L A area every few years at Film festivels and always sell out?

 

[Mullen4Prez]

I would have to say Braveheart

I own "The Decalogue" on DVD, and it's fantastic. I just like "Red" better.

I hear that Steven Soderburgh and George Clooney are stealing Kieslowski's idea, though, and making something incredibly similar.

Melon,


i know they are in b&w and loosely based on 10 commandments.

which ones (numbers) do you like best?

i saw one, snuck into a sold out show after hour and half drive.

I hope they don't.
Sonderburg ruined Traffik.
So lets hope they leave it alone.

likewise
Potters "Siinging Detective" is simply brilliant.
Last year's film was a big miss.

I don't know about the "best" movie, but my favourite has to be the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Not flawless by any means, but those films keep me enthralled like nothing else.

Godfather II

Flat out perfect movie. Must have seen it 20 times.
Cool Hand Luke, too.

 

[U2utah2U]

two words: Tongan Ninja

 

[trevster2k]

Shawshank Redemption

 

[beli]

Brazil (the Terry Gilliam movie, not the other one)

 

[A_Wanderer]

Jurassic Park - I loved dinosaurs since I was crawling and seeing that movie when I was seven kept that going. I know that it isn't the greatest movie ever done but it is a well made blockbuster with a solid cast and is clearly the best dinosaur movie ever.

 

[womanfish]

City of God.

 

[BVS]

Anything with Pauly Shore

 

[LyricalDrug]

Rattle and Hum

(duh!)

 

[meegannie]

City of God.

Have you seen City of Men or Bus 174? I saw the latter on Christmas Eve, but saw City of Men at HMV the other day and was curious about it...

 

[tiny dancer]

Schindler's List

 

[Scarletwine]

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

 

[Catman]

The best movie would be "Back to the Future," thank you. End of discussion


EDIT: Well okay...BttF is my "favorite" movie, but I don't necessarily think it's the *best* if that makes any sense. I just skimmed other user's various choices and it reminded me that the "best" movie is undoubtedly Schindler's List (and I've seen a LOT of movies). There you go. End of discussion...................

 

[tiny dancer]

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

That's a good one Scarletwine!

 

[MissMoo]

Harold and Maude, saw it was a teen and loved it ever since.

 

[Got Philk?]

I don't think this is the best movie ever, but it is to me. Gladiator starring Russell Crowe

 

[Sheltie]

The Pianist

 

[dandy]

The Pianist

that movie was amazing on every possible level.

 

[Irvine511]

best movie -- you'd probably have to say "schindler's list"

my favorite movies -- toss up between "goodfellas" and "boogie nights"

"ET" also makes me weep like a schoolgirl. it's about finding something beautiful and precious in the middle of stifling suburbia, how kids empower themselves and make magic. it's American suburban transcendentalism, and it moves me so.

*sigh*

Either E.T., The Fellowship of the Ring or The Making of The Joshua Tree.
