1)Jurassic Park
2)The Lost World
3)Jumanji
4)E.T.
5)The Matrix (I saw this movie while it was in the theatres! So intense)

All the movies picked are really good. I also like the Jurassic Park duology, soon to be trilogy, but the books are better, and yes Dim I liked Dogma, and Clerks too, but the other Kevin Smith movis I just like a little better, I like how they always do a little something from Star Wars.

I like how a lot of you like movies that have Star Wars people in them, I do that too. Speaking of which has anyone seen Trainspotting with Ewan McGregor? It was a little gross but I still really liked it, I just forgot to put it on my list.

Yeah thats a great movie. I reckon that Robert Carlyle would make a great Moff Tarking, he has the right cheek bones.
Other movies I like are
Resevoir Dogs
Blade
Pulp Fiction
The Faculty
8mm
The Shining
Casino
From Dusk till Dawn

Might I remind all you literater-haters, that any book is better than the movie, I have seen no exceptions. Also, they are making a Jurassic Park 3??!?!?!?! Please tell me your joking that would be the best!

I agree UBH. All the books that I have read that have been turned into movies; the books were ten times better. And yes, Jurassic Park 3 is on its way to theaters as early as this summer I believe, but there was no book this time. They are bringing back Sam Niel to play Alan Grant but thats all I know.

I've only seen the first one and I thought it was okay. I've heard the others aren't as good.

There are too many American movies I like to list here but my favourite British movies are:
1. Trainspotting
2. Brassed Off
3. Shallow Grave
4. Zulu
5. Braveheart (even though it's really American)
I can't stand the Matrix. It's the most overated, pretencious peice of junk I've ever seen. The guys who made that also made Dark City which is the same story but a far, far better movie.

I saw about 75% of Scream on TV the night B4 halloween, missed the beginning but it did look OK. I have heard that they went down hill after that.

The 3rd one was pretty good but the 2nd one was awful.
