Best movie(s) of all time

[Bronc0guy]

Just had a little movie marathon with the girl that we often do on Sunday nights. Got extended from the usual two, to three thanks to a little extra wine. We watched "The Departed", (My personal fave) "Blood Diamond", (never had seen it, was FANTASTIC) and "Sleepless In Seattle". (Shoot me)

Just curious as to what my fellow maners favorites are. It can be anything from cartoons to the Godfather. No judgement here.

Clearly it's Deep Rising

Goonies - is there any real need for explanation
Top Gun - because I am an aviation nerd and have been since age 3. Spent many a summer buzzing the tower with my F-14 Huffy (movie is pretty bad though!)
The original Super Man series

[Mat'hir Uth Gan]

Meet Joe Black, The Natural, Dazed and Confused.

I'm an uber film geek (well just geek really) so excuse my weirdness:
Pre-1960: Citizen Kane, His Girl Friday, Philadelphia Story, Bringing Up Baby (Most things with Cary Grant or Katharine Hepburn).
Horror: Silence of the Lambs, Psycho, Halloween (1978) Nightmare on Elm Street (1984); Shaun of the Dead, Dawn of the Dead (both versions, tho I prefer the remake)
Comedy: Almost anything with Bill Murray but specifically Groundhog Day, Ghostbusters, Caddyshack, Scrooged;
Action: Die Hard, Lethal Weapon (1, not the sequels), Batman Begins, Raiders of the Lost Ark
Suspense: Most Hitchcock Films, Jaws (could be horror or suspense I guess), The 6th Sense, Memento
Crime Films: LA Confidential, Reservoir Dogs, Godfather 1 and 2, Usual Suspects, Shawshank Redemption
Romance: Umm, Super Bowl XXXII game film? I like Romancing the Stone. Out of Sight, Pride and Prejudice (Colin Firth); Bridget Jones
Sports: Bull Durham, Breaking Away, Bend it Like Beckham
Kids: ET and Goonies and Gremlins

I'm a big fan of crime films and I know its cliche but the Godfather to me is absolutely impeccable. I also love Quentin Tarantino movies - Pulp Fiction is awesome. On the flip side - I find many animated films to be awesome for some reason - How to Train Your Dragon, Up, the Incredibles etc etc.

[Bronco X]

I'm the only one I know who admits to not having seen every film ever made and therefore can say nothing about "best films ever/all time"... but here are some favorites I've seen:

Dr. Strangelove
2001
Mulholland Drive
Eraserhead
Dead Man
Baraka
Jaws
Blood Simple
Children of Men
Vertigo
Yojimbo
Once Upon a Time in the West
Touch of Evil
Taxi Driver
The Raid
The Empire Strikes Back
Office Space

Ditto on the crime movies. Up made me sad, honestly. Cartoon movies would be the last kind of movie I would think could put me down in the dumps, but that one did.

Pulp Fiction is up there, although I might prefer Reservoir Dogs. Two of QT's best works.

Big Lebowski...can't not watch that movie every time it's on.

Se7en was a good show.
