[KenOchalek]

Napolean Dynamite, Thats a CLASSIC


Since it'd be nice for this thread to transcend everyone posting their own list, I'm gonna go ahead and say....


You're effing kidding right?

I've seen a lot of movies in my day (I'll post the lists to prove it if necessary), but I don't think I've ever seen a movie try so hard to avoid having something happen. And I'm not a complete Napoleon hater, I think that there are a lot of interesting characters set up in the movie. However, once those characters are established nothing of any interest really happens to any of them!

Now, I didn't see this until after it was a "big deal", so maybe all the hype predisposed me to not like it, but I couldn't get over the idea that it was just an attempt to spawn a new series of catchphrases and pop culture references.

TOTALLY UNFAIR, SLIGHTLY SARCASTIC GENERALIZATION ALERT: If this is your favorite movie, you've clearly only seen one movie in your life.

[Maluro]

i'm kinda romantic... i llove The Lake House and um... Little Miss Sunshine is sooo good too

trying to choose your favourite movies is like trying to choose your favourite siblings.

It's more like trying to decide if you could live without your lungs or your heart; it's impossible 'cause either way you're dead.

BTW, I like my sister way more than I like my brother.

What is your absolute favorite movie of all time?

MINE IS DEFINATELY FOREST GUMP!!!!:D:)

[New Spark Films]

Children of Men

[next-tarantino]

"How Stella Got Her Groove Back."











Not really... I just can't think of a good favorite of mine...

[jimsomniac]

12 Angry Men!!

but also...er.... Air America! OK, OK, I'm sorry, but I always wanted to run an air taxi service in the carribean, or at least fly old knackered charter planes for nothing but cigarettes and whisky!
These guys make getting shot at while dropping pigs in crates look like the most fun job in the world.

[Johnny_Cool]

It's almost impossible to nail it down to only one movie... but some films that I really, really like are "The Sting", "The Usual Suspects", "Snatch", "The Good, The Bad And The Ugly", etc...

[BackyardProductions]

The outsiders

[GhostOfAllie]

It's a tie between 'Gigli' and 'Glitter'...



I'm kidding. This is a hard question.

[DocHoliday8403]

The Indiana Jones Trilogy...

[SteveNelson'sEvilTwin]

Its a tie between Everything is Illuminated, Once and Eternal Sunshine

[clabb]

The Warriors.

and by the way its Forrest Gump, with two R's lol

[NaziActionFigure]

Hmmm. Either Boogie Nights/2001:A Space Odyssey.

Choosing these two movies also indirectly chooses Good Fellas and There Will Be Blood.

Spirited Away is probably the best animated film I have ever seen. It was so unique and very different from anything else I have seen before. Great film.

[WesScog]

I have a hard crush on Miyazaki. I just adore his work, i've watched Spirited Away AT LEAST 7 times, and it's just one of those films that I could sit down and watch anytime.

I can't wait until they start releasing Miyazaki films on HD, I would adore remastered versions of Castle in the Sky, Princess Mononoke, Kiki's Delivery Service, and Howl's Moving Castle.

[DeadFishProductions]

My mood is ever-changing... I couldn't get an exact top ten... but I'm pretty sure 28 Days Later would be on there... and No Country For Old Men...

(Oh and Howl's Moving Castle is my favourite one! I fucking love that movie.)

[WesScog]

Howl's a great great movie. Also while I LOVED 'No Country', it's not a film that I can just sit down and enjoy.

It's a draining experience.

[DeadFishProductions]

I see what you mean... I feel that way about Blade Runner.

[WesScog]

I have a lot of film's like that. 2001, Blade Runner, 12 Monkeys, Solaris (the original Russian one, not the perfume commercial with George Clooney), PI, Most of the Coen's work, I completely love them, but I respect them as art, while I can sit down and watch them, it's an emotional experience.

Most of the movies I think are my 'favorites' are ones I can just sit down and enjoy, and still get something fantastic out of them them, without feeling like my brain got molested.

[DeadFishProductions]

like your brain got molested? interesting choice of words there... I'm going to be saying that all week now.

[WesScog]

Grosse Pointe Blank is such a GREAT movie!

[jimsomniac]

Grosse Pointe Blank is such a GREAT movie!

It is an absolutley awesome film. John Cusack's best work (that wouldn't have been much of a claim back in the 80s, but nowadays he makes good movies)

[WesScog]

Oh, I would disagree, his 80's movies are some of my favorite Teen movies of all time. Say Anything, Better of Dead, and One Crazy Summer.

They aren't cinematic masterpieces but they are really funny movies.

And to the OP, take advice from Chef Gusteau: Anyone can cook! But substitute cook for film.

[Ladri.]

maybe you all should think of the reality of things. I mean, its great that they're into filming, but they think that just because their rich parents bought them a fancy camera they are going to be some famous director. And more likely than not, half of the little kids who aspire to be filmmakers now will have a completely different goal in a year, and when they do, I'm sure they will get whatever they want in order to fulfill that dream.

That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. I knew I wanted to be a filmmaker at age 14 and guess what? I'm 17 and still plan on going to film school. Since you think they are incapable of making an enjoyable film, how old are you? I have seen a 14 year old make an enjoyable short before.

Almost all of the big name directors started their love when they were children. J.J. Abrams, Spielberg, Lucas, Shyamalan, Rodriguez, Tarantino, Lee, Scorsese, Anderson.

All of them started when they were kids, or at the very least very young, and I think it's very condescending that you'd assume that all of the young filmmakers here, or elsewhere, all get "fancy" equipment from their "rich" parents.

Some parents who might not be rich, might see that their child has an artistic desire, and save up and borrow money to encourage them. I know Rodriguez's parents were far from rich, but they saw how great he was and helped him get what he needed, even though they didn't have a lot.

SO I think it's a gross generalization, that I think hints at some underlying jealousies or prejudices, and you need to change your perspectives if you want to integrate successfully in this community, who I would like to proudly say has flourished in its ability to ignore any kind of barriers, and just recognize and encourage one another's desire to create.

True, but he is insulting, alot of the viewers. With his Signature.

[WesScog]

I just dont think this should be a community that showcases childrens' lack of talent, but rather to aid all prospective filmmakers


There are plenty of very talented young filmmakers here.

We try to aid all filmmakers, young and old, new and veteran, by offering a rainbow of advice from every part of the filmmaking process.

We seek to help any filmmaker that has the desire to try to learn, and works to get better. Rather than tearing them down and telling them what they cannot do, we give them the tools to allow them to push what they are capable of.

I would suggest reserving judgment, and stop with the broad generalizations, we've had plenty of great advice and tutorials filmed by young filmmakers, who have constantly impressed us with their degree of talent.

Likewise, we've gotten some fantastic, established filmmakers to allow us to show off their material, interview them, and who've helped us out by also providing us with plenty of tutorials.

So, instead of judging by age, judge by merit, and reserve judgment until you've seen their work.

[UndergroundLairProductions]

why would you go to film school? waste of time. And what are these enjoyable shorts made by 14-year-olds? Who enjoys them, other 14-year-olds?

Dude, you need to chill the hell out.
First of all, when did you first decide you wanted to make films, huh?
Indy Mogul is about encouraging aspiring film-makers to showcase their work and develop themselves, yet based on your sig I'd say you represent the total opposite, and that just ain't cool.
:nonono:

[drweir]

OK, rather than getting involved in the arguement here I'll still to the original topic. I'll list over five though, I know that.

1. Event Horizon
2. Angel Heart
3. Session 9
4. Soft For Digging
5. Hard Candy
6. Cannibal Holocaust
7. Dazed and Confused
8. Watership Down
9. Xanadu
10. Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1973)

Wow, I can't believe you just said film school was a waste of time. Now I really know that you have no clue what you're talking about.

[yourmindsinnerworkings]

NO POST! ANTI SIG!

zmunz, what happens when these kids turn 14? and why 14? are you only 14?

[toppie34]

wow so your saying that if you turn 14 in one day you change adn also there are a lot of great movies on here too and most people who make them are under 13 and they earn them by doing hard work because the world is not rich and has a limited amount of money get used to that

[Nonsensical studios]

:angryian:


Zmunz, I have 2 things to say.

1. Before you call some 14 year olds work crap, why don't we see what you have done? I have seen some pretty good work from 14 year olds.

2. You probably don't know this, but film making is essentially storytelling. if you were walking down the street and you saw some kid telling a story to his friend, would you run up to the kid and say "leave the storytelling to the storytellers!"


Anyone with A camera, Inspiration and Imagination can be a filmmaker. ANYONE.

BTW, People don't like it when you suddenly say they can't be what they want too,

[Citrus]

I have to agree with the other people about your sig, zmunz, even if you have edited all your posts and tooks away your sig.

I started making movies when I was 9 with my mom's sony Hi-8 handycam. I had no way to edit so I had to do it the weird way of rewinding the actual tape and recording at the right spots. I continued this until my friends got one with a flash card. We made movies with that and then I finally got my own camera a little over a month after my 15th birthday. Sure not all my stuff is enjoyable but I've posted some of it on the internet and everyone of them has had at least one good things said about it weather its through comment, message, rating, talking.

I would like to see how old you are and what movies you have made. Just to see if you are worthy of even telling 14 year olds to put away their aspirations, even if they only last a small amount of time. It's people who tell others that they can't do things without seeing their work that ruins the area of the work. if someone told Kubrick not to make movies where would we be today? We'd be without one of the greatest directors ever...

[nassersays]

Battle Royale

[Kohrsfilms]

Killer Klowns from Outer Space? Seriously? I thought that movie was a joke.

HECK YEAH!!! Killer Klowns it quite possibly the most creative movie I have ever seen. They could have just taken the normal road and had guys escape from a mental hospital and kill people while dressed like clowns. But everyone has done/seen that before. What they did with the movie was way more fun to watch. Even though it's low budget and it suffers a little from that, it's still a really good movie.

The bear one is from The Prophecy though I am not sure about the Troll chorus (I imagine it's the original Troll film but you never know, I have only seen it's clasic sequel)

[mopman]

OH OH is this the thread where everyone puts fight club in their list? I think that is such an overrated movie. Oh well at least noone has said Donnie Darko yet. Lets see my favorite movies... As of now
1)No country for Old men
2) Gangs of new york (just because The butcher kicks ass)
3)There will be mud (I mean blood lol)
4) Metal Gear solid (you sit through 8 hours of cutscenes and codec calls and tell me it isn't a god damn movie!)

[Cadaver88]

Donnie Darko

[mopman]

NOOOOOOOOOOO! lol. Just for the record I was kidding, please don't take anything I say seriously I really like fight club... but Donnie Darko still sucks :(

[ugman77]

donnie darko

Which Metal Gear? I liked the third the best but hated the ending of the second.

[BRanger62]

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (the movie that is actually the first film chronologically and is the misfit of the three, possibly the best film I have ever seen)

Back To The Future (biggest fan of Christopher Lloyd, love the Delorean and this film is the most entertaining and very well done of the trilogy)

Superman: The Movie (my childhood hero on the big screen, I was completely stunned by the helicopter scene when he catches both Lois and the helicoper in his hands, it made me smile and still does. This film made me want to make movies.)

Terminator 2: Judgement Day (Arnie is the man, nuff' said)

Rush Hour (Everything that Jackie Chan does is pure gold, plus he teams up with Chris Tucker. Its an interesting combo that is both badass and hilarious)

I have more but, those are my top 5.

[New Spark Films]

What did his sig say? It's gone now. :confused:

It was just some shit like "to all you filmmakers under 14 making you no-plot ninja movies, leave the filmmaking to the filmmakers HUAH! I'm better than you" or something like that. It was probably worse for real actually.



The Princess Bride
Edward Scissorhands
King Kong (old or newest)
Lord of the Rings Trilogy (3 then 1 then 2)
Big Fish
The Prestige
Jurassic Park
Death at a Funeral

SWEET LIST. Besides King Kong, all of those are great movies. I've probably seen the Princess Bride 50 times and I nearly died laughing during Death at a Funeral. And the Prestige is just one of the best movies ever, period.

[Ladri.]

The Illusionist > The Prestige :)

[Cadaver88]

The Illusionist > The Prestige :)

The cinematography was great in the Illusionist but I think The Prestige had a better plot and better acting.

The Prestige had Ziggy Stardust too!!!!

[New Spark Films]

The Illusionist > The Prestige :)

Nah. I thought the Illusionist was pretty unmemorable to be honest.

[glmclainmovies]

Yeah. I'm surprised at how many people like children of men. I think it's a really great movie, but doesn't get any credit.

[Ladri.]

Yeah. I'm surprised at how many people like children of men. I think it's a really great movie, but doesn't get any credit.

The cinematography in that movie was the most beautiful thing I have seen in a long time.

[Cadaver88]

If you want to see beautiful Cinematography watch Amelie or A Very Long Engagement or any of Jean-Pierre Jeunets films

[Ladri.]

I just like the mood of Children of Men a lot. I mean A LOT.

[New Spark Films]

Yeah. I'm surprised at how many people like children of men. I think it's a really great movie, but doesn't get any credit.

Maybe not with the Oscars but elswhere it gets its deserved credit. Cuaron is such a great director.

Pan's Labyrinth (This movie inspires me)
August Rush (You know, I just saw this movie the other day, and I loved the message behind it, cause music truly affects my life)
Falling Down (One of the greatest "an hero" of all time)
Saving Private Ryan (Best World War 2 film I've seen)
Once Upon a Time in Mexico (Rodriguez ftw)

ya, that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

I like King Kong a lot, I just like the story behind it and I thought that the special effects in the original and newest (Peter Jackson's) really pushed the boundaries. Although Jurassic Park has better dinosaurs.
I've seen Princess Bride over 50 times too, I love it.
And I'm glad that somebody else has seen/enjoyed Death at a Funeral, I think it's one of the funniest movies I've ever seen.

'Cuz he didn't use the original plot. :P

[jawahunter]

'Cuz he didn't use the original plot. :P

1933 King Kong: 100 mins
2005's poor excuse for King Kong: 187 mins with an extended cut lasting 201min

Hmmmm..... Some would say embellishments are ok but doubling the length goes beyond embellishment. It's down right putting an entire other movie in to the original.

Anyway, I do digress and I do recognize that some do in fact like Jackson's King Kong just as much as I recognize people like Romi and Michelle's Highschool Reunion. They just weren't for me.

[17thletterfilms]

Plot from original 1933 King Kong:
A film crew goes to a tropical island for an exotic location shoot and discovers a colossal giant gorilla who takes a shine to their female blonde star.

Plot from 1976 remake of King Kong:
A petroleum exploration expedition comes to an isolated island and encounters a colossal giant gorilla.

Plot from 2005 remake of King Kong:
In 1933 New York, an overly ambitious movie producer coerces his cast and hired ship crew to travel to mysterious Skull Island, where they encounter Kong, a giant ape who is immediately smitten with leading lady Ann Darrow.



Making a movie longer doesn't mean that it makes it worse. Plus, your response really had nothing to do with the fact that
he didn't use the original plot. :P

I think the beginning is kind of like 2001: A Space Odyssey just because it's kind of setting the mood of the movie but other than that I'm not sure.

[Scottishkilt]

The plot and such seemed rather... ill formed. The silences in the movie, although they might have delivered some sort of artistic value, found me sitting uncomfortably in my seat bored. The action sequences and character relationships seemed, like the plot, ill formed. Maybe I'm of a lower order of film viewer, who isn't willing to attempt to look too deep into the movie. I quote the ridiculous things Daniel says at certain times (i drink your milkshake), but other than that the movie left no notable mark on my mind.

BASTARD IN A BASKET! lol That was the best line ever.

[Cadaver88]

It's just that Paul Thomas Anderson used Penderecki. For example the song when Daniel is supposed to introduce Eli to bless the well and the end credits.

Don't get me wrong I loved TWBB but when I first saw I immediately thought of Kubrick's films.

[17thletterfilms]

I'd like to see There Will Be Blood, it looked interesting. Cinematography looked good. Maybe I'll check it out.

Didn't Jonny Greenwood score there will be blood?

Yes, but there was also a number of existing classical compositions used in the film, as well as other Johnny Greenwood songs that were created for other films, such as the experimental film, Bodysong. It's actually why Greenwood's oscar nomination was disqualified, because it's not a 100% original score.

For many years, my favorite movie was "My Fair Lady", mostly because of the character, Professor Higgins (I know, probably not anything any of you have seen...and it's a musical, to boot)

"A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum", also a musical, is another one. (A musical comedy this time. Done back in the 60's or so. Watch it...I think you'd like it.)

"The High Country", with Linda Purl and Timothy Bottoms. Kind of obscure, but I liked the characters and the situation.

"Alien Resurrection". Ripley totally rocks in this one. I wish they'd make another one about what it is like for Ripley, being a hybrid Alien/Human now that she has returned to Earth. However, Sigourney Weaver is probably a bit too long in the tooth to play the part, so they'd possibly have to get someone new.

"The Shoes of the Fisherman". This is another old film from the 60's. I first saw it with my parents when I was probably 6 or 8 years old. Kind of a convoluted plot, involving a catholic priest who flees communist Russia, then, through and odd twist, ends up becoming Pope and has to deal with trying to negotiate peace during a time of nuclear tensions.

[mopman]

Which Metal Gear? I liked the third the best but hated the ending of the second.
