I have strange tastes. While there are plenty of quality films that I love, I prefer watching goofy B-movies. Growing up, I really enjoyed stuff like Plan 9 From Outer Space, Evil Dead 2, and Mystery Science Theater 3000. While I wouldn’t call it my favorite film, I’ve (sadly) seen Birdemic more times than any other movie released in the past decade. ---

Thats fantastic. I’d prolly set a tent in front to spy on them 😅 ---

Star Wars, episode one, two, and three. The one with anakin as a kid before he grew up. The movies were designed for children in mind which is why it is as good as it is even though it got panned years later. ---

Those movies were panned immediately, not “years later.” ---

Changed ti but does it really need spoiler text when it is probably a decade old? ---

I guess it doesn’t _need_ it, however “Raging Bull” is more than 35 years old, but I still haven’t seen it, so if someone posted a major plot detail in the thread, I would be less than pleased. #justsaying ---

There comes a point when complaining about spoilers becomes ridiculous. A movie 35 years old can’t be ‘spoiled’, and it doesn’t matter whether you’ve had the entirety of that time in which to see it or not. ---

A movie 35 years old can’t be ‘spoiled’, and it doesn’t matter whether you’ve had the entirety of that time in which to see it or not. I could be wrong, but this seems like an opinion. I’m not sure… but I’m pretty sure. No one is putting a gun to anyone’s head, just expressing a concern of common courtesy. Consideration is an antique concept, it appears. Honestly, it was a light-hearted joke, but I guess the smirk emote wasn’t enough to diffuse its seriousness. ---

I was being playful, i saw your light-heartedness which is why i changed what i wrote to reflect that and my question was not to be seen as seriously as it was. That i must say is my fault for lacking mastery in communication. ---

I realize your remark to killerman3333 was intended as humorous. It was your comment regarding _Raging Bull_ that didn’t seem to be in the same spirit. If I misinterpreted, I apologize. ---

Ok… so as a person with a degree in Fine Arts… Movie watching is more than a hobby. So, I too cannot name just one. Here is a sample of my favs: (yes I have many, many, many, more) _ **Sci Fi:** _ **Star Wars** (episode 4,5,6) **Spaceballs** (of course!) almost anything else… lol _ **80s-chic** _ **The Goonies** (wished I had friends/adventures like this) **Ferris Bueller’s Day Of** f (wanted to be him when I grew up) **The Breakfast Club** (some of the most amazing monolgues for teens) **The Neverending Story** (cause who doesn’t like a flying Dog-Dragon) **Horror** : Not a big favorite of mine, but since it is SO prolific in the thread here is my perspective **The Hellraiser Trilogy** (The best all around horror franchise out there, its got a “believable” story, gore, jumps, and even some well placed comic moments, it really is the whole package. Something you don’t find often if ever in the horror genre) _ **Martial Arts:** _ **Equilibrium** (this gets no love, because it came out at the same time as the Matrix, but the bullet-time Gun Kata in this movie might even be done better.) **Shaolin Soccer** (if you have not seen this, check it out!) **_Others_** **American Beauty** (this is a textbook on cinematography) **Primal Fear** (Edward Norton’s best performance… PERIOD) **Phenomenon** (A movie where you ACTUALLY like Travolta’s character) **Powder** (powerful story, well told and performed) **The Power of One** (about the Aparteid in South Africa, awesome) **What Dreams May Come** (not given the credit it deserves as a beautiful piece of art) As I said, I could go on and on, but I will stop now for your sanity. If anybody is interested in having a deeper conversation about any of this, feel free to PM me! 😉 Great Thread by the way, scrolling back up to click LIKE… NOW! ---

I’m actually surprised “Primal Fear” wasn’t mentioned more. That one is a classic. Loved it. [Previous page](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/what-is-your-favourite-movie-s/11633.md?page=4) [Next page](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/what-is-your-favourite-movie-s/11633.md?page=6)
