steve25805 126,015 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 What is your favourite film? Easy question to ask yet very difficult to answer. I dont honestly think I can easily single out any one, but by genre I think my favourites would be.... Sci-Fi - Close Encounters of the Third Kind War - Full Metal Jacket Western - Dances with Wolves Action - Total Recall Historical - Braveheart Disaster - Deep Impact Horror - American Werewolf in London Psycho-thriller - Silence of the Lambs Musical - Breaking Glass Hard to pick a favourite out of that lot because it actually varies according to which genre I am most interested in at that particular moment. I suppose right now if I had the time to watch a film it would be Dances with Wolves out of that choice. Anyone else like to tell us their favourite films? Link to post

chantelle22 50 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Chantelle 22 , What was it about The Butterfly Effect , that was so good & interesting to you I have never had seen this movie before . So I had wondered about what it was all about . Can you explain to me . Why You like this film , Please ? Kevin It's hard to explain. It's like, physiological thriller if you're into that. Basically everything about it is great, I can't find any fault with it. If I had to watch one movie for the rest of my life, it'd be The Butterfly Effect. :tongue: Link to post
F.W 5,734 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 I generally only like War movies."Battle of Britain","Kellys Heroes".All the black and white 50s and 60s,with John Mills,and dear Richard Attenborough sort of thing. Sci-fi,has to be the Alien movies,not big on Star Wars now,was when came out,but i think its dated.Indiana Jones,and the odd rom-com,like Shallow Hal. Come to think of it,i like most movies,apart from turgid Spy thrillers,where the good guys are the bad guys,but the bad guys are really the Govt etc.Over my head! Link to post

A serious focus on horror and action there, Sophie. I used to be seriously into horror when I was your age too, actually, but less so now. Link to post
likesToLick 10,216 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Die Hard 1+2.The original Die Hard is my favorite Christmas movie. I always try to make time to watch it on Christmas day. Link to post
Sophie 24,398 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I forgot to add Pulp Fiction to the list. The original Die Hard is my favorite Christmas movie. I always try to make time to watch it on Christmas day. I completely agree! I love curling up on the sofa and watching it. The original is definitely the best in the series. Die Hard 2 was okay, Die Hard with a Vengeance was meh, enjoyed 4.0 mostly for the whole hacking theme it had. Link to post

likesToLick 10,216 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Not seen ANY of these!"Back to the Future" is light comedy entertainment with a time travel theme. The pace and timing is just great - I find I still enjoy it after multiple viewings. Definitely see it if you get the chance. A classic American comedy. Link to post
