Your Favourite Films?

Definitely recommend you download  sorry visit the pictures and have a look at The Last King of Scotland very enjoyable film and a damming verdict on Idi Amin’s reign of terror. Forest Whitaker would get my vote for an Oscar closely followed by Di Caprio for his work in Blood Diamond, another good watch.
What are everyone’s favourite films mine are.

In no particular order.

Young Frankenstein
Get Carter (The Michael Caine original not the bitter blue Stallones)
Raging Bull
American History X
Zulu
Apocalypse Now
Seven
Any Carry on film but if im pushed Carry on Screaming

And probably quite a few more but you have to stop somewhere!

Natrual Born killers
Platoon
Apocalypse now
Shawshank redemption

And Happy Gilmore just cracks me up every time I see it 

And Happy Gilmore just cracks me up every time I see it 

Shooter McGavin: I eat pieces of sh*t like you for breakfast.

Shooter McGavin: No... I... 

Shawshank Redemption is top of my list every time, Usual Suspects, Gladiator, Memento, 51st State (not 50 First Dates!) are all favourites. Adam Sandler is very good, his new one Click is a must see!

You been watching my DVD's while I'm out?  Pretty much agree with this except scratch Memento cos haven't seen that.

Not seen The Last King of Scotland yet but on your recommendation I will take a look.  I will get downloading visiting the local cinema soon.

Seven, Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs , Fight Club and American History X best movies ever!!

Just saw Borat last night. Near died laughing. Check it out if you haven't already but be warned of the severe chest pains you get after watching it!!!!

Shawshank Redemption, Gladiator, Usual Suspects, Platoon and Man On Fire.

I'm going to see The Last King of Scotland next week hopefully

Memento is a must see JD, it's got that bloke out of Neighbours in it, but don't let that put you off - he's actually very good!

I love most Adam Sandler films. My fave is the Wedding Singer (anything 80's and I'm there!) and Happy Gilmore. Click was really good as well.

Oh that's the one, The Outlaw Josey Wales, I forgot the complete name. Great film, very underrated I believe, never seen people talk about it.

I have some problems with some of your selections, but each to their own because I know some people won't like some I adore.

My favourite film changes depending on my mood.  I must admit I love some absolute crap as well as loving some classics & modern greats.  An example of 'crap' that I like is No Escape starring Lance Henriksen & Ray Liotta, but there are some brilliant moments in this film.  From my childhood I have films I still love to watch, Lost Boys, Bill & Ted, The Goonies & (of course) Ferris Bueller's Day Off to name a few and of course all (well not quite all are great but I love them any way) the Star Trek Films. 

here's a few...

 Big Lebowski
 Brazil
 Dr Strangelove
 Goodfellas
 Wild Bunch
 Godfather
 

Just a few of my Faves...
