Your top 5 movies of all time...

Started by BackFire5 pages

Anyway, back to topic....my favs are...

1. Texas Chainsaw Massacre - It pioneered the modern horro genre, and basically was a turning point for horror films, before TCM, horror movies were generally about monsters, or unbelievable psychos. TCM was the first to incorperate some actual realism into the movie, and with this realism it shocked people when it was first released...and the fact that it still shocks people, now 30 years after its release, shows that it is truley a horror great.

2. One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest - The only film I percieve to be flawless, everything is amazing in the movie....you feel every possible emotion pushed to it's limit as some point or another, and the ending is absolutely devistating... If you have not seen this, see it asap, I promise you, you won't be disapointed.

3. Paths of Glory - Just one of many Kubrick masterpieces, but in my opinion, his crowning achievement...this is the film that pushed him into greatness, and was the first film to show that he was destined to be a legend of film. Plus it showed people who criticized Kubricks lack of emotion in his films, that he could indeed bring emotional power rivalring anyone else. Magnificent in every sense of the word.

4. NeverEnding Story - A childhood favorite of mine, I'm sure my nastalgic feelings for this film drive my love for this film even furthy, but I still find it to be magical, and showing a great message to kids...Don't be afraid to dream.

5. Requiem for a Dream - An absolutely devistating movie, the sheer power of this movie forces me to list it in my top 5, since I've never seen a more powerful film in my life...

Hey Backfire no offense and band my ass if you want to, but i had been getting lit up like a xmass tree on the other thread and i just saw bennett get smashed too so where were you than.

The_Inevitable
John Matrix you are definitely a very pathetic imbecile and you should have your eyes gouged out, your nose smashed, eyelids sewed shut, fingers cut off, kidneys stabbed, ears cut off, elbows and knee caps hit with a sledge hammer, Head set on fire, and your soul taken away by me personally.

Burn in Hell you hopeless maggot.

what about when, SKAliv said this to Bennett

bravo for being most immature disgrace of a human being on this site. Why don't you just realize that you're a fool, and go crawl into a hole so you don't piss people off with your ignorance? You're pathetic.

So thanks for being there when i get flamed for voicing my opinion and for moving my thread which was just see where the LOTR fans sit on top 5.

thanks

Excuse me for not being able to be everywhere at once, I simply did not see those, give me the links to those threads and I will gladly warn them in the same manner I warned you.

However, retaliation in no way justifies bashing, for if it did everyone would be using it as an excuse, if someone insults you, simply report them too a mod. Retaliating with a comparable childish insult will only get you in trouble along with them.

im not going to report anyone, i mean come on its a message board. I just saying that if that guy reported the idoit thing he did it cause he was mad i wouldnt let him say LOTR. i mean look at what he posted to Bennett.

btw all, backfire has the best list so far

1. Beetlejuice ~ All time favourite film from any genre
2. Dawn of the Dead ~ All time favourite horror film
3. Jaws ~ All time favourite 'creature feature'
4. Clockwise ~ All time favourite 'Slapstick' comedy
5. Halloween ~ All time favourite 'Slasher' flick

OK NO LOTR :
the Godfather I,II
Gradiator
Natural Born Killer
Fight club
Plub Fiction
Traffic
The Silence of The lamb
ops sorry more than 5

1. Requium for a dream. Great movie they show it to us every year so we won't do drugs. Depressing ending as hell, poor mother.
2. The breakfast club. excuse me for liking and 80's oldie but i can never get tired of that movie
3. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. There aren't many movies that can make me laugh now adays, thank god for this one.
4. Finding Nemo....view above
5.The Ninth Gate. Beautiful movie, powerful messages. I couldn't decide between this or Moulin Rouge which is my sobfest movie.

Okay, sorry about everything. I was having a really bad night, and my temper was short. I know I said some reaaalllly childish things, but please forgive me, I wasn't really thinking...I misread a lot of what you said. So can we drop this whole bashing argument? I really hope you guys can just forget about it. I haven't reported anyone, so lets just move on.

By the way, I'm a girl...sorry again.
