I don't expect as many replies as the David Fincher, Quentin Tarantino, etc. threads, but there might as well be one. This man can do no wrong, in my opinion.
Although all of them are amazing, I choose Rushmore.

One of those rare movies where about a 1/3rd of the way in you just know you're in the safe, comforting arms of a good, solid flick that'll entertain you the rest of the way through. Rock steady. For me, up there with Fargo as one of those films that it's hard to find much fault with.
Only criticism I could think of, maybe a couple too many of those "song sequences" dispersed too closely together (those can be kind of a cop out I find)...but the songs happen to all be so darn good that it makes up for it.

Just watched Bottle Rocket for the first time and I must say, I think it's my favorite. I'll have to rewatch some of his other films that I've not seen in a while, but currently, I'll say Bottle Rocket.
I think The Darjeeling Limited is easily his worst movie.

Same here. I even start giggling when I know it's coming. It's one of the funniest lines in any movie in the history of the world ever. Ever.
Also, in The Life Aquatic I crack-up every time I see ol' Willem Defoe peeking his weird little face through windows and stuff.
