smaugman 02.29.16	lord of the rings obviously, american psycho, once upon a time in the west, dollars trilogy, alien and aliens,
anarchistfish 02.29.16	star wars and zodiac i don't really watch movies
anarchistfish 02.29.16	and tarantino obviously
anarchistfish 02.29.16	no idea who David Fincher is but apparently he's directed a bunch of my favourite movies (didn't dig Seven though)
Spacesh1p 02.29.16	I'm not a huge film guy but if I could only watch one for the rest of my life it would be Pulp Fiction. Glad to see There Will Be Blood get a mention - not that its unknown by any means, but the final scene has some of my favorite acting I've ever watched. DDL is astonishingly good throughout.
Spacesh1p 02.29.16	Agree with American Psycho but I am a huge Christian Bale fan to begin with.
Piglet 02.29.16	Yeah couldn't get into se7en either anarchistfish though it's beeeeen yeeeeaars There Will Be Blood and No Country For Old Men are just so fucking ridiculously good i love how they were literally filmed at the same time in the same area, absolutely my favourite two movies of the 00's.
anarchistfish 02.29.16	get him to the greek just cos I've never laughed so much at a movie
Spacesh1p 02.29.16	I enjoy Get Him to the Greek but largely because Forgetting Sarah Marshall is the greatest rom com the world will ever know.
JeetJeet 02.29.16	Seven, The Town, Fight Club, The Raid Redemption, Mulholland Drive, Sicario, This is The End, Collateral. I'm forgetting so many others but these are just off the top of my head
YetAnotherBrick 02.29.16	The Squid and the Whale, Rushmore, Little Miss Sunshine, Lost in Translation, American Hustle, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, Sideways, Fargo, Pulp Fiction, and my new shit is Persepolis. if you haven't heard of it, it's an animated French-Iranian film about a little girl growing up during the Islamic Revolution. and it's probably the best animated movie i've ever seen that isn't Pixar (though Fantastic Planet, Coraline, and Fantastic Mr. Fox all come close). another great, underrated movie is Me and You and Everyone We Know. yeah that's prolly in my top 20
Spacesh1p 02.29.16	I didn't think Sicario was that good. Felt like a pretty mediocre attempt to recreate Zero Dark Thirty, which itself was by and large saved by the historical relevance of the OBL raid. Decent but nothing amazing.
Piglet 02.29.16	I've heard many good things about Persepolis @brick, i will get around to it!
YetAnotherBrick 02.29.16	yeah it's a revelation man. with your taste i don't see you not enjoying it "Forgetting Sarah Marshall is the greatest rom com the world will ever know." that's a weird way to spell Love Actually. or As Good As It Gets. Or Hitch, even.
ChoccyPhilly 02.29.16	12 angry men inception eternal sunshine of the spotless mind Up
Royl123 02.29.16	Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind...
JeetJeet 02.29.16	I love Sicario because the tension in that movie is thick as fuck. Plus Benny Del Toro was a savage in the movie and the dinner scene was brilliant IMO. Plus I'm a sucker for movies involving Cartel related shit
ChoccyPhilly 02.29.16	Eternal Sunshine of the spotless mind is fucking brilliant and therapeutic considering I just got out of a relationship
YetAnotherBrick 02.29.16	Eternal Sunshine [123], Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, Her, Where the Wild Things Are...
MyNameIsPencil 02.29.16	28 Days Later, Chasing Amy, Pulp Fiction, The Departed, Trainspotting, Fargo, Drive, Her, Birdman, The Shining, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Breakfast Club, Battle Royal, Reservoir Dogs, Scream, On the Waterfront, Elephant, The Original Night of the Living Dead, Clerks, Taxi Driver ect
MyNameIsPencil 02.29.16	also just realized you named nothing but Australian bands lol
Piglet 02.29.16	Ah yeah Birdman and 12 Angry Men are 10/10 no idea how i forgot about them haha yes i was wondering how long it was going to take before someone was going to realize
adr 02.29.16	great list i like most of these, 1,6,7,10,11,12,13,14, 17,20 and 23 especially. some of my favs - 2001, Apocalypse Now, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, The Godfather, Goodfellas, Mulholland Dr., Persona, Zerkalo, Stalker, Harakiri, 12 Angry Men, Alien, Blue Velvet, City of God, Citizen Kane, The Third Man, The Night of the Hunter, A Clockwork Orange, Double Indemnity, Vertigo, Full Metal Jacket, Hana-bi, No Country for Old Men, L.A. Confidential, Once Upon a Time in America , It's Such a Beautiful Day, Possession, Reservoir Dogs, Se7en, Snatch, There Will Be Blood, Trainspotting, Whiplash, Ran, Seven Samurai, Evil Dead II, Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke, End of Evangelion

Piglet 02.29.16	Oh shit someone else on this site has seen Zerkalo and Stalker? THat's crazy cool. Just about love every movie you listed there as well @adr
Nocturnalize 02.29.16	back door sluts 34
evilford 02.29.16	no country for old men is great yeah faves of mine are prob Die Hard, Tommy Boy, Happy Gilmore, Star Wars eps IV-VI, The Dark Knight, Reservoir Dogs, Office Space I'm not a huge movie connoisseur but those are probably my top faves
ChoccyPhilly 02.29.16	watchmen > the dark knight
evilford 02.29.16	I disagree sir
eaglefan1998 02.29.16	Blade Runner, Memento and Pulp Fiction are probably my favourites EDIT: Ghost In the Shell, the LOTR films are also among my favourites
evilford 02.29.16	even tho I haven't seen watchmen
ChoccyPhilly 02.29.16	watchmen is seriously good if you haven't read the comics though. It definitely trumps The Dark Knight
JigglyPDiddy 02.29.16	Godfather Pt. II, Spirited Away, Mad Max II, Donnie Darko, Trainspotting, The Mystery of Picasso, Ghost in the Shell, Dancer in the Dark, Brazil, Boys Don't Cry, etc.
Piglet 02.29.16	no zack snyder film is better than the dark knight (except maybe by some stretch of the imagination 300, that movie is so fucking fun)
JigglyPDiddy 02.29.16	Raging Bull, too.
JigglyPDiddy 02.29.16	Oh and Dark Knight.
BandNewbac 02.29.16	its hard to pick a favourite film but the one that impacted my life the most is probably Eraserhead tbh, sorry that and E. Elias Merhige's Begotten and Din of Celestial Birds
Piglet 02.29.16	E. Elias Merhige films are your favourites? Well, that's.. intriguing
Spacesh1p 02.29.16	Dark Knight is definitely peak Nolan Batman. Also there's just no arguing that Forgetting Sarah Marshall is the best rom com, I don't even know why you would try.
manosg 02.29.16	Great taste! 1,3,5,7 and 23 are some of my favorite movies too. Sunset Boulevard is up there as well along with LOTR, Apocalypse Now, Forrest Gump, The Name of the Rose and a few others. And nothing beats Conan the Barbarian when I'm in the mood for some epic shit.
BandNewbac 02.29.16	@Piglet i found a lot of inspiration in them, so its more just holding them quite close to my heart because of that i guess
henryChinaski 02.29.16	Good Will Hunting man, great pick. Love that movie!
ChoccyPhilly 02.29.16	@space have you seen eternal sunshine of the spotless mind? It's less com than rom though
Sinternet 02.29.16	top 10 ghibli: Princess Mononoke Whisper of the Heart Grave of the Fireflies Spirited Away Kiki's Delivery Service The Wind Rises My Neighbor Totoro Nausicaa: Valley of the Wind Laputa: Castle in the Sky The Cat Returns Top 10 non-Ghibli: Persepolis Summer Wars Scott Pilgrim vs The World Akira The Breakfast Club Withnail & I Star Wars: Episode VI Waltz With Bashir Donnie Darko The Wicker Man but Mononoke is absolutely my favourite film ever
insanedrexl1 02.29.16	Sin City Amadeus Star Wars ep. IV-VI Batman (1989) Nosferatu Ed Wood Spaceballs Die Hard Spirited Away
Mad. 02.29.16	Nice choices man, cute lil Tarkovsky film in there Mine would probably be: Magnolia Blade Runner The Master The Secret In Their Eyes Before Sunrise Another Year The Hunt Network Boyhood Alien
porcupinetheater 02.29.16	Marketa Lazarova, Children of Paradise, La Notte, The Turin Horse, Paris Texas, The Mirror, Winter Light
Mad. 02.29.16	"watchmen > the dark knight" nahhh man
Piglet 02.29.16	All this love for Eternal Sunshine, I just wish I could understand that movie thanks @mano, I cottoned on to The Name of the Rose but I still haven't gotten around to watching it, I will soon! @band i haven't watched Din or Begotten, but Shadow of the Vampire is a cool one high with some friends @henry good will hunting is so poignant, the hits so hard. i reckon matt damon is one of my favourite actors- everything i've seen him in i love. @Mad. hahah only his best one! watching his films is like reading a dostoevsky novel, something i just can't pass up. Network and Magnolia are both fantastic as well @porcupinetheater Paris, Texas is such a cool film, only found out about it through the ry cooder soundtrack and glad i did
Mad. 02.29.16	@Piglet I've only seen The Sacrifice (which was a lil bit too dense for me) and Solaris, which was amazing
zakalwe 02.29.16	Recently. Boyhood Ex Machina The Martian The Hateful Eight. All time Pulp Fiction Bladerunner Shawshank Redemption The Goonies
user 02.29.16	top 10: shawshank redemption the godfather the godfather part II the dark knight pulp fiction schindler's list 12 angry men return of the king the good the bad and the ugly fight club i know, im a movie nerd :P
Spacesh1p 02.29.16	@Choccy Yeah bro that's a classic, plus I love Jim Carrey. @Zak I also thoroughly enjoyed Boyhood, as films that actually do something innovative (at least to me, I'm no film expert) are usually far more interesting to me than standard films. Also anyone on this site who hasn't seen Whiplash, please do so. It does an excellent job of capturing the intensity of live music performance - and, it's not too self-indulgent as it's only around 90 minutes. I respect that considering every film these days feels like it deserves a massive chunk of your time (I'm looking at you, Wolf of Wall Street, you terrible, terrible excuse for entertainment).
Piglet 02.29.16	oh yeah mad The Sacrifice is one i haven't seen, but yeah i'll be watching The Secret in Their Eyes, Before Sunrise and The Hunt next couple weeks, thanks! oh and yeah @porcupinetheater i checked some of your favourites out and they look great, i promise to get around to them!
DoofusWainwright 02.29.16	Top 10ish (no order) - Eraserhead - Mulholland Drive - Apocalypse Now - LOTR trilogy - The Matrix (first film only) - Spirited Away - There Will Be Blood - Trainspotting - Donnie Darko - Withnail and I (maybe, more likely something else I've forgotten)
Trebor. 02.29.16	Only 3 people put Blade Runner wtf
henryChinaski 02.29.16	@Piglet I agree! Matt Damon is a great actor. Loved him in his latest movie The Martian.

benkim 02.29.16	Glengary Glen Ross is a must watch
Shemson 02.29.16	When you put Brazil on the list it should've been with Cradle of Filth-Midian due to the best movie sample ever! Great list though, Memento is outstanding, Top 5 ever for me.
Riviere 02.29.16	Sexy Beast Ben Kingsley's greatest performance imo, and one of the most convincing sociopaths ever portrayed in film.
Shemson 02.29.16	Yeah great film Sexy Beast
AlexKzillion 02.29.16	Revenge of the Sith
Kman418 02.29.16	inland empire

Kman418 03.01.16	i always feel like people will think im pretentious or whatever when i bring up how inland empire is like top 3 movies ever for me but i genuinely love it so much. its like 1 of 3 things ive experienced in the art world that genuinely warps my perception of time and reality every time i see it its so fucked
EyesWideShut 03.01.16	Buffalo '66 Barton Fink Taxi Driver The Wrestler Naked Repo Man Cool Hand Luke Two Lane Blacktop Fat City Home Alone
RogueNine 03.01.16	Well you've got my favorite movie at 10, after that I'd have to think.

adr 03.01.16	lol shut up Rowan
Rowan5215 03.01.16	you're not the boss of me noooooooow
Piglet 03.01.16	dune is a david lynch movie?! i never knew damn
Rik VII 03.01.16	Inland Empire > Mulholland Drive > Elephant Man (> Twin Peaks, as of season 1, I'm not finished yet) > Eraserhead > The Straight Story > Lost Highway > Blue Velvet (> The Grandmother, if you count short films) Haven't seen Wild at Heart, Dune and the Twin Peaks movie yet. Don't be fooled by Lost Highway and Blue Velvet being the last two, I still like them both a whole lot. David Lynch is probably my second favorite director.
DoctorDoom 03.01.16	The Seventh Seal, Blue Velvet. Se7en, Eraserhead, Hot Fuzz are my weird ass top 5.
Rik VII 03.01.16	@Arcade: yeah that's roughly what I've heard about them yet, there's a reason why I haven't seen them. To be fair, the main reason for the TP movie is just because I haven't finished the series yet. Dune would be kinda interesting to see because I'm curious how bad it really is. Wild at Heart is easily the least interesting one for me. I can't stand Cage and everything I've read about it so far has only made it less exciting for me.
user 03.01.16	Mulholland Drive > Lost Highway > Inland Empire > Blue Velvet > Eraserhead > Fire Walk with Me > Dune > Elephant Man > Wild at Heart > The Straight Story [2]
Kman418 03.02.16	nah twin peaks movie is his second best after inland empire honestly n its gonna go down as one of the most underrated movies of all time cuz people were expecting more of the tv show in a movie which isnt what it was really going for at all seriously love fire walk with me so much
Piglet 03.02.16	well bloody ell sounds like i need to watch inland empire
Kman418 03.02.16	forewarning its probably one of the most abrasive movies in existence its like mulholland drive if the last 30 minutes were 2 hours long instead and it was filmed on a $700 student camera from 2001 and you'd dropped acid before you watched it
Clumseee 03.02.16	The Master, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Blue Valentine, Lost In Translation, Chasing Amy, Spiderman 2.
EyesWideShut 03.02.16	damn no one mentioned The Hustler yet.. such a clossic with the god Newman.
Piglet 03.02.16	oh fuck yeah dude the hustler is a great movie, newman is a boss
EyesWideShut 03.02.16	yup definitely a top 5 fav actor for me.. you ever peep this underrated Newman flick called Hud? He killed it.
Piglet 03.02.16	nah dude but from a cursory look it seems like a good un, i'll have to get around to it
Piglet 03.02.16	oh and yeah top 5 for me as well
EyesWideShut 03.02.16	you dig Dennis Hopper, another legend in my book.. Out of the Blue was one hellova flick.
Piglet 03.02.16	oh yeah dude old hops was a good egg fuck he's in just about everything
Cryptkeeper 03.02.16	SW Episode 5, Fury, The Raid (2) (big rec), The Green Mile, Forest Gump.
Piglet 03.02.16	do ya have to watch the first raid to get the gist of the second
Rowan5215 03.02.16	kman watch the fan edit of Fire Walk With Me tbh it's like 10 times better good list of aussie bands piggy bro
Piglet 03.02.16	yeah cheers, do you got any others that aren't listed rowbro? i can't think of too many (besides all the metalcore acts i.e. parkway drive, i killed the prom queen)
Rowan5215 03.02.16	oh man Sydonia, Rook, .hinge, Gyroscope, my main dudes MAMMAL, Cog
Piglet 03.02.16	oh shit yeah all those guys, buttlerfly effect as well
Piglet 03.02.16	dead letter circus how could i forget about them
Rowan5215 03.02.16	Butterfly killed it on their first album for sure, Clint has one of the best voices from aus. Also spinning off from those bands you got Ox and the Fury, The Occupants, Kyber Belt etc
Rowan5215 03.02.16	probably cos their last album sucked SHIT
Piglet 03.02.16	hahah yeah fuck that piece of shit man how did they drop off like that, but yeah cheers for some of the recs!
Rowan5215 03.02.16	oh and last one don't forget Gunface, only one album but it's a bloody straight up classic
