I love a fair few trashy films, but really?! It's not that I didn't enjoy it; that almost never happens; I just didn't understand it, so do educate me. There's reading between the lines, and then there's a plot that's so arbitrary it loses any intended meaning and is reduced down to some sort of black comedy. The ridiculous dialogue (and not in a positive sense - it's like Heathers gone wrong) actually became offputting too. I guess reasons why this would be your second favourite film of all time would be simply enjoying the trippy visuals or as a parody (I think) of teenage clichés. Am I missing something?

Oh christ, I always struggle trying to do this, but here goes (I don't think I could put them in order though):

 

1. Shawshank Redemption

2. Beetlejuice

3. Scream

4. Nightmare on Elm Street

5. A Beautiful Thing

6. Death At A Funeral (original UK version)

7. Forrest Gump

8. Jumpin Jack Flash

9. Labyrinth

10. Requiem For A Dream

11. Misery

12. The Matrix

13. Adventures In Babysitting (the best of 80's cheese)

14. Dirty Dancing

15. Lord of the Rings (all 3, I couldn't choose just one)

Martha Marcy May Marlene should be a lot higher on my list now (probably between Airplane! and Carrie), and Suspiria will now be higher into the top 10 (perhaps overtaking The Godfather). Two films that i have rediscovered, and have appreciated much more than before!

That's all that comes to mind at the moment (and majority within the last 10 years - sorry :P)! I'm sure I've missed off loads though that deserve a mention. Will edit if I remember any! I could mention majority of Pixar's stuff. They crap all over Dreamworks! Oh and if I had to pick one from the list above, as my ultimate favourite ever film... I'd go with 'Finding Nemo'. :wub:

 

'Power Rangers' is there purely for nostalgic reasons. If I was to ever watch it now, I'd probably notice all the flaws with it, but from memory I love it as it was a massive part of my childhood. Pretty much the only film I'd ever watch! :lol:

'Martyrs'

YES JONJO.

I can't rank the first three, urgh.

 

2001: A Space Odyssey

Martyrs

4. Elephant

5. Sunshine

6. Mean Creek

7. Mysterious Skin

8. Shortbus

9. Les amours imaginaires

10. [REC]

 

Leave it as it is with Kubrick at the top :kink:

 

Good to see [REC] getting so much love. One of the best horrors i've seen in recent times!

I've forgotten to include 'Battle Royale'! That's bloody amazing. I still can't believe the author of 'The Hunger Games' when she said she had apparently never heard of 'Battle Royale' whilst writing THG... :lol:

 

She was clearly reading 'Battle Royale' and 'Twilight' together to mash them up! :drink: (You're all going to tell me that THG came before 'Twilight', aren't you? :lol:)

 

EDIT: Harve. 'Martyrs' is beautifully disturbing. Everything about it is so sick and twisted and just generally f***ed up, but it's still quite a beautiful film. (STRANGE I KNOW! - hopefully you get it though :P)

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. I wouldn't condone violence if it's excessive and just for shock value without having any real meaning (Human Centipede HELLO), but the ending of Martyrs justifies it in this case. I found it to be quite triumphant / beautiful, yes.

Either...

 

"Breakfast At Tiffanys" or "Two For The Road".

I have watched so many but titanic is my favorite ever..
