Favorite movie/show?

What is your favorite movie or favorite show?
My favorite movie is probably Harry Potter: POA, or LOTR FOTR, or maybe Mr. Deeds. My favorite show is probably Boy Meets World, or The Simpsons or Futurama! Oh no wait! Family Guy!

Okay, this might take a while ;)

Favorite Movies: Saving Private Ryan, Black Hawk Down, We Were Soldiers, The Longest Day, The Lost Battalion, Behind Enemy Lines, Enemy At The Gates, Tommy Boy, Waynes World 1 & 2, Zoolander, The Last Samurai, 7 Samurai, 13th Warrior, BraveHeart, (Going to go with a few Anime movies) Akira, Princess Manonoke, (Back onto real movies) Platoon and the Bodyguard.

Favorite shows (shorter then movies but still kind of long ;))
Futurama, The Simpsons, Family Guy, (when it was on) Gundam Wing, (when it was on) and Invader Zim.

:grinthumb

Favorite movie is a tough one, prolly a David Lynch film though. Favorite TV show... Stargate SG-1 if talking current running shows, prolly Babylon 5 if talking "all time fav"

Fav show is easy! And I think you all know which I mean.

Not quite sure about film though.
I'll have to get back to you on that one as I'll have to browse my DVD colection & do a little searching to remember the name.

Though one I do remember is "Singing in the Rain".

akio you like war movies a lot. and singing in the rain sucks! oh and futurama and family guy are on at 10c pm on Cartoon Network. :)

War movies catch my eye. When I lived in Japan, I took an extra credit class (Or whatever you call it) and it was American History. I got all A's, then when I moved here. My teachers were suprised at how much I knew about American History. :p

Favorite Movie: Gone In 60 Seconds
Favorite Show: N/A

Favorite Movie: American History X
Favorite Show: Seinfeld

And Star Wars movie, Pulp Fiction, and The Doors

gtg, give it a few more years and you might see why I like it.

mr.deeds?? zoolander?? gone in 60 seconds?? dont take it personally but those are terrible movies puke: . especially gone in 60 seconds but especially mr.deeds - adam sandler is a dousche he does the same character for EVERY movie hes in. that out of the way

fav movie = the iron giant
fav show = the simpsons (all other shows take from it - plots, lines, jokes you name it) AND Aqua Teen Hunger Force ...number one in the hood g...yeah!

:D

Wow - how can you call Adam Sandler a douche and then say one of your fav shows is ATHF? Don't get me wrong - I like ATHF (now - I hated it at first), but I also like Adam Sandler. BTW, I like ATHF because it's so retarded - just like Adam.

This is an easy one!

Favorite movie would have to be Office Space!!!

there are a lot of tv shows however - Simpsons, Seinfeld, Dave Chappelle to name a few

Okay - I finally figured it out - had to ponder on this one for a couple days.

Favorite movie : Scarface - that was the easy part

Favorite show: Well, there are a few
That's 70's Show
Smallville
One Tree Hill

Are you guys surprised to not see any anime on that list? Actually, I like so much anime it would be hard to include any one particular title.

Adam Sandler is awesome.

theres a difference between a tired been there character which adam sandler has now come to epitomize and the likes of ben stiller in theres somethign about mary (ben stiller also has fallen into the sandler trap of playing a dousche in every movie since that one).

as for ATHF...Master Shake alone has better lines then all of adam sandlers movies. i too liked adam sandler but that was a long time ago...many many movies ago when he was fresh and not a 43 year old man playing a tired 25 yr old retard.

note: watch the south park episode where Cartman is pitching ideas for adam sandler movies for more jokes on his movies.

check check it!

You guys really need to see more movies. It is an enormous affront to any kind of cinematic aesthetic that a discussion of Adam Sandler is even taking place here. I realize that this thread is entirely subjective in nature, but I feel that some otherwise intelligent people are doing themselves a huge disservice when they go to the movie rental store.

ok mr.deeds is the worst movie i've ever seen, but hey #%$! Gone in 60 Seconds really is the best movie ever!!!

:confused:

Umm as for my movies I would say the first Matrix, Fight Club, Godfather Part 1 & 2, Donnie Darko, American History X, Catch Me If You Can, Matchstick Men (love con movies), and I guess the Lord of the Rings series for geek purposes.

I don't watch alot of TV, but the shows I do watch consist of the Sopranos, Band of Brothers, and Pimp My Ride :D

i was gonna say something about gone in 60 seconds but beauty is in the eye of the beholder and soooo agissi is right in his own twisted way (best ever????!!!).

donnie darko is a pretty good movie - the first time i saw it, it blew me away - sort of like the matrix before the sequels

the good, the bad and the ugly - unforgiven - the man with no name trilogy - the alien trilogy ( the fourth - alien resurection does not count as it was directed by a frenchman and absolutely aweful but thats a given since it was again directed by a frenchman), Dr. Strangelove, die hard trilogy, se7en

the following woody allen movies - bananas, take the money and run, whats up tiger lilly, and zelig

every ahnuld movie ever...EVER :D - including the one where he gets pregnant, almost every jack nicholson movie, terry gilliam movies

as for shows (adding to simpsons and ATHF) - futurama, married with children, family guy and pretty much every cartoon series from - 1985 to 1998

Well its the only movie i can watch about 50 times and not get tired of.

The Screensavers

ESPN (everything)

:cool:

man Sorny, all you have done in this thread is judged. you are probably one of those ppl who only likes movies cuz ppl dont know about them so you can be original. and once you see this reply ur gonna say how im an idiot for writing this. I MADE THIS THREAD SO PPL COULD SEE EACH OTHERS FAVORITE THINGS TO WATCH AND HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON. BUT YOU MADE IT GAY BY JUDGING OTHER PPL. SO KEEP YOUR COMMENTS TO YOURSELF AND LAUGH.

no reason to be mad - i didnt knock anyone...just movies which last time i checked are inanimate objects.

hahaha (thats me laughing!) all my movies are widely known - ahnuld movies?? (that would be Arnold Schwarzenegger) Clint Eastwood movies, Woody Allen movies, alien quadtrilogy (Ridley Scott and James Cameron starring Sigourney Weaver ), die hard trilogy (Bruce Willis) - honestly all of them have a huge following and im more then sure you would like the vast majority of them (your most likely going to have to wait a few years to rent or see them since most are rated R). and thats the only reason you dont know about them - theyre old - no reason to hate.

if i wanted to throw out random indie flicks i would be like - city of god by Fernando Meirelles (the most gangster movie ever by the way - if you like scarface your gonna like this one - and its a true story)

come to think of it i really just knocked mrdeeds which was knocked by everybody...maybe thats a sign...

ehh...

Cool down will you?

There's no reason to shout, or call something "GAY" (as long as you don't use it to mean "happy", "merry", "joyous" which was the words original meaning) because not everyone agrees with you.

You actually were the one who started the "knocking" in this thread, by saying that "Singing in the Rain" sucks.


Anyways.
I think this has gone far enough, and that we all should take a step back.
We're discussing movies, and it's not the end of the world if someone doesn't like the same movie as you.
Either ignore those posts or answer them in a civil way, unless you want to get the moderators attention....
We've already discussed this thread, don't make us do it again.

YOU MADE IT GAY BY JUDGING OTHER PPL

I laugh every time I read that.

I'm not gettin involved in the gay thing..."Not that theres anythin wrong with that"

Fav shows, Simpsons, Seinfeld

Fav movie Blue Velvet.

"The Candy Coloured Clown they call the Sandman..."
Frank Booth

Pass me the Gas.....

Fav movie: Money Pit
Fav TV Show: Inuyasha

*Puts up flame shield* Don't hurt me...;)

wow i dint think so many people would read what i write to someone else. but you people were still judging

If you find the need to write something to one person only & that you eventually do not want other people to read it, use the http://www.techspot.com/vb/images/sendpm.gif function.

It keeps the threads clean & keeps people out of your "business".;)

thx that helps

Oh yeah, Fight Club was good (as someone mentioned here). LoTR movies were great.. Perhaps a runner for my all time favorite.

I would have to say that I simply have no favorite single movie or even show (although I would be much more able to name a favorite series).

And for that reason, I shall say no more.

But I would also like to add....

Gone in 60 Seconds really is the best movie ever!!!:rolleyes:

Who saw Spiderman2? This movie is AMAZING. Good plot, good character developement and the clincher, Flawless CGI. The trains scene was AMAZING. It looked so real. And also in this movie, you feel a lot more sympathetic towards Tobie McGuire's character. How they did Doc Ock was amazing. Again, it looked soo real. All in all, a great movie with a great plot and an excellent exhibition of CGI at its best. Way better than the original, you have to see it.

Yeah - I agree - it was great CGI. There was only one part where I didn't like the CGI - at the end with the helicopters. I'm thinking they did that to remind us it's a comic. I really enjoyed the movie though and so did my wife :)

Favourite film is really hard, = Pulp Fiction / Shine / Gattaca

Show SG1 and Simpsons:grinthumb

Rick.. lol..... you guys are mean

Scarface,blow,dueces wild.

the train sequence in spiderman 2 did look good but it was silly. there is no such train in midtown manhattan and will never be since they are all underground. also why would they built the train line that high off the ground? that train was a good 7-8 floors off the ground. also why would it end soo abruptly at the river like that? the funny thing is that there are plenty of elevated subway lines in nyc they could have used, instead of wasting time and money on a silly idea. the rest of the movie was good tho...

Nevermind what I said before.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is now at the top, undisputedly, hands down whatever of my favorite movie list. I've seen it 4 times already, in one week. On various psychadelic drugs I might add.

Touching the Void

Rented it this weekend- no psychadelics unless you count half a bottle of Hendrick's Gin- yum.

Favorite movie/show in the last month would have to be Spiderman2, though The Village was really well done, but not as scary as I hoped for.

Favorite movie of all time would have to be Frequency and for favorite TV show I would choose Probe.

Top 3 movies:
1. Donnie Darko
2. The Matrix (any of the 3 really)
3. Snatch

Top 3 T.V shows:
1. Top Gear
2. Heroes
3. Oz

Agissi,
I have to know, are you talking about the H.B Halicki original Gone in 60 Seconds, or the remake?

Fav movies: The original Star Wars Trilogy, no contest

Fav shows: Seinfeld, South Park, The Simpsons, The Venture Bros., Heroes, Smallville

*Edit* Oh man! I forgot to put MacGyver on the list of shows!

my favorite movies are: Scarface, Scent of a Women, Boondock Saints
