Alright it wasn\'t THAT bad. I mean I do own it . . . it was given to me for Christmas. I just find it very depressing to watch and I\'m not a huge fan of the musical renditions.

Hmm -

Overall my favorite film is The Quiet Man

But, if we were going to break it down by Genre -

Forgien -
Seven Samurai
Gojira

Western -
The Searchers

Sci Fi-
2001

War -
Flags of Our Fathers

Noir -
Touch of Evil - but make sure you get the reedit done in the 90\'s to Wells\'s notes

Shakespearean -
Henry V

Animae -
Akira - any movie where Tokyo gets BTFU twice and hit with an orbital laser is worth watching IMO

Yes, let\'s not forget the older films and black and white....Antie Mame with Rosalind Russell and The Women with Norma Shearer...

And, I love The Incredibles for children\'s films.

And, yes, Spirited Away, but Howl\'s Moving Castle is soooo good, as well as Princess Mononoke...and even My Neighbor Totoro.

And I am a staunch member of the \"I Loved Moulon Rouge\" Club with you Roger!!!

Everyone involved in that new shite Willy Wanka should be tied up in a sack and thrown in a river, that movie was god awful.

LMFAO!!! Not a big fan of the city then Lloyd?! lol

I\'d like to add \'The last Samurai\'* to the list.

Spinal Tap.
Equilibrium I always enjoy watching.
and a more recent one! \'Transformers\' , I was seriously impressed!

*Tom Cruise was NOT the last Samurai!

I have to admit that there are a few films mentioned here that I like, but to add a few \"Differing\" ones:-

Practical Magic
The Gift
One flew over the Cuckoo\'s nest
Somethings Gotta Give
The Forgotten (Linus Roach plays one of the creepiest characters ever in it. Also stars one of my favourite actresses Alfre Woodard.)
Rules of Engagement
The Long Kiss Goodnight
The Missing
A Few Good Men Superb acting by Jack Nicholson.
Murder by Numbers
To Kill a Mockingbird
Inherit the Wind (Either the Spencer Tracy or the Jack Lemmon version).
The Apartment

And that\'s just a few I can think of off the top of my head

Ok TBS you\'ve redeemed yourself from the horrible Moulin Rouge blunder. Last Samurai was a very good film and I think it is one of the few Tom Cruise movies where his acting was pretty good.

Very good story line too. I know far too many people who didn\'t like it though and that just shocks me.

I think I\'ll add 12 Angry Men to the list, the 1957 version, that is. I haven\'t seen the more recent one to know if that\'s any good or not.

I thought it was brilliant! And historically acurate up to a point (dress, period events etc). Wether the last shogun was actually killed during a huge battle , I don\'t know really...
I thought there were a LOT of ronins at the end of the endo period...Kina like jedi after the end of EP III lol
