I'm tempted to say, let us not include anime in this thread and save that for the anime forums. Then we'll learn something about people's favourite non-ghibli films too :mellow:

Best film I've ever seen was The Green Mile. Just love it.

I don't think that's quite fair, as anime can be one's favorite genre. They should be allowed to discuss it in a "BEST Movie" thread. Not to be arguing with the top mod though...

But here's my revised list, without anime:

1. Mary Poppins
2. Wizard of Oz
3. Chicago
4. My Fair Lady
5. Little Miss Sunshine
6. It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World
7. Grease
8. Singin' In The Rain
9. Waking Ned Divine
10. The Devil Wears Prada

Braveheart,The Cutting Edge, Excalibur, Serenity, Phantom of the Opera, Last of the Mohicans, Les Miserables, Mr. Holland's Opus, The Notebook, The Princess Bride, Shall We Dance, TransAmerica, Untamed Heart

My three favorite movies:

A New Hope
The Empire Strikes Back
Return of the Jedi

XD

I also like the prequels, most James Bond movies, and The Island.

Hmm, I have a lot of 'favorite movies' but I'll try to list them...

1) Phantom of The Opera
2) Star Wars Series
3) Bond Series
4) Spirited Away
5) Read Or Die

Shoot... I can't think of any more--just the ones I've seen recently are up there, but are for sure my favs.

Best film I've ever seen was The Green Mile. Just love it.

yay a Stephen King fan

Lord of the Ring [trilogy]
The Village
Garden State
V for Vendetta

I'm not a Stephen King fan :mellow: I just think the Green Mile is great (the book is also fantastic btw). I know little of Stephen King's other works.

Im amazed that no one has mentioned "Fear and loathing in Las Vegas" or "Naked lunch"...

other favourites are:
The Adventures of Baron Munchausen
Jason and the argonauts (childhood memories there)
Borat
anything ghibli =)
Lord of the rings (all three)
Amadeus
Cube

and so on--- ad infinitum.

my faves *updated Mar. 5, '07*
The Rock
Catch a Fire
Apocalypto
Kumo no Mukou
Ravenous
American Beauty
A Beautiful Mind
Infernal Affairs I, II, & III
Wait Til You are Older
Natural City
Stranger than Fiction
Infernal Affairs trilogy
Happy Feet! SOOOO CUTE!!! :D
Bubble Boy
ConAir
Braveheart
The Neverending Story (the second one SUCKED!!) :P

The Matrix (I + III.. the second one was really bad..)
Donnie Darco
Babel
Little Miss Sunshine
Memoirs of a Geisha
Hero
...

And one thing that is supposed to be "in the works". It'll definitely take top spot if it's done well.

Wicked.

click. its so funny and sad at the same time.

Jet Li's Fearless and Lord of the Rings(except for Legolas, ARGH HE DROVE ME INSANE!!! GET HIM BETTER LINES PEOPLE! reallly cheesy...Frodo and Sam won my heart over for the move though *tear* soo sweet)

If I had to choose just one, I'd think I'll say my classic Independence Day! I think 2nd place goes to Inside Man. Other than that, there is a whole bunch, Rocky 1-Infinite, The Matrix 1-3, The Rock, Every Bruce Lee/ Jackie Chan/Stephen Chow (God of Cookery is one everyone seems to forget) movie, ect, ect, and you get the point.

I haven't seen too many movies, but whatever. Also--apparently, I have not lived because I haven't seen "The Breakfast Club." Erm. Yargh!

In no particular order, because I'm indecisive like that:

-Crash ('sup "In the Deep")
-Moulin Rouge (shuttup ='D)
-Lord of the Rings (I mean the P.J. one. ;) The cartoon one was strangely hilarious)
-Finding Neverland <3
-Millenium Actress (I liked this MUCH better than Spirited, Mononoke, Akira, etc. =O *puts on flame-retardant suit*)
-GATTACA (pure awesomess. period. Not quite sure why!)
-Long Life, Happiness, and Prosperity (!)
-I am Sam
-The Hours (haha!)
-Oldboy

And if you're deciding not to count anime, just pretend "Millenium Actress" wasn't there, eh? Anyways, if I were to choose ONE best one, I'd say Oldboy because it's just that awesome.

Blood Diamond
Crash
Deja Vu
Man On Fire
V for Vendetta
White Noise
Pirates Of The Caribbean 1 & 2

I don't really know what I like but the movie that I like is probably:

Fearless
LOTR (Lord of the rings)
GODZILLA!!(really cool)
Naruto
My Sassy Girl (hella made me laugh and very touching)

Pan's Labyrinth, so good.. @_@
Stranger Than Fiction was remarkable as well.

Little Miss Sunshine
Memoirs of a Geisha
Hero

*nods* I'd agree with that, except maybe for Memoirs of a Geisha- the book pwns the movie. But, it was still nice. ;)
Otherwise, mine would be.. in no particular order,
LOTR trilogy {craig!! :w00t:}

They have to choose carefully since they will be stuck with that memory forever and the people that help them are actually souls themselves that couldn't get pass the waystation because they have no clue what their cherished memory was and end up helping other souls cross over. It's a story of finding self respect, meaning of life, helping others, and realizing how they lived before.)

Inception

Scott Pilgrim V.S. The World

Juno

V For Vendetta

The Matrix (All three were great)

Lost Horizon

I have a long list of "favorite movies," that I realistically can't put in any real order, since they're all so awesome, but whenever I'm forced to pick one, I have to give it to Princess Mononoke, since it's the one that made me start drawing seriously. =)

hmm not favorite but 'best' film. atleast that takes an edge off

cant be sci-fi as plot and acting tend to be slightly worse... hmmm

i think apocalypse now(directors cut, not the trashy one that doesnt make sense) is definatly up there.
ah who cares, i'll through in a sci-fi, 'Silent running' (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0067756/) the ending to this is perfect

Animation: Spirited Away or Ponyo

Based off anime: Bleach: Fade to black

Live action: It's not a movie but probably the best live action thing I've ever seen is LOST. It's epic funny at times, and very interesting :D

Best horror is Grudge or Ring 0: brithday

Best Drama: I've only seen one drama and that's Tayou no
Uta and I think it's neat that YUI can write music, sing and act very well!

Yes, I agree Up is the best american animation with Monsters inc being my second favorite.

The best films i have seen are:

Moon
American Beauty
Full Metal Jacket
V for Vendetta
Citizen Kaine
and The Onion Movie

Suckerpunch.
