in the scene where Randal is ordering all the porno flicks in front of the woman and her little girl: The guy who played Randal wouldn't do the scene with the little girl present. So they filmed them seperately and dubbed his voice over the scenes with the woman. however the woman wanted her reactions to be "natural", so she insisted someone else read the lines out loud while she was "acting" | ||

2. Primal Fear 3. Lord of the Rings (all movies I'll just take them as 1) 4. The Matrix (same) 5. Lock, Stock and two smoking barrels 6. The Big Lebowski 7. Memento 8. Requiem for a Dream 9. American Beauty 10.Shawshank Redemption there's many other good movies that could make it to the bottom of my top 10, and my top 10 changes every day, but still it's quite an accurate list. (I have not seen Godfather, even though I got the trilogy on DVD  . always looking up against that 9 hour-sit)of course special mention to movies such as Boondock Saints, Vanilla Sky, The Game, Minority Report, Pulp Fiction, Resevoir Dogs, Fight Club, Good Will Hunting, Rounders, Shrek, Ice Age, Finding Nemo, The Usual Suspects, Life of David Gale & more but they don't make it (by a small margin) Also I have to admit I'm not much of a mafia / war movie fan so I do recognize there's some really good movies in the genre that I like but just not *that* much. | ||

And once I get "in the zone" I don't leave it until I take a break from poker. When I needed the money for my new computer(5500), I made it in 7 days, and the first 3 days I had less than 200 dollars profit a day, and the 4th day I didn't make that much either. It's cause I got in the zone the 5th day! | ||

first of all, i haven't watched a lot of "classic" or so called "must-see" movies, so i'm probably missing out many things. also, i think there is a difference between an "artful" movie or a movie which is simply entertaining, charming. example: amelie. i really enjoyed that film but i wouldn't say it's a masterful work of art. opposite: mulholland drive. beautiful aesthetics in every aspect but quite exhausting to watch (considering all those negative vibes). but whatever, here are some movies i consider to be the best i've watched (overall criteria): space odyssee 2001 seven samurai chinatown apocalypse now clockwork orange there are a lot of movies which i also find very interesting and good but i think those five stand out somehow (in my list). | ||

I edited my old post but I doubt many will notice as people who already read this thread probably won't look back to older pages. Anyway, I said of some list to be the best yet listed. Of course I meant the one _I_ find fits my likings the best. I thought that was the common way to read it. I only put it in that way cause someone (If i didn't misread) had talked bad about that list just ahead of my post. If I wanted the same message to go through without that post having been done I would've spent more time to make the sentence make a bit more sense I guess. | ||

The Shawshank Redemption Star Wars Schindler's List One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Indiana Jones, I'm waiting for the 4th episode, it will be out in the middle of 2005, if everything goes to plan, which i doubt Jurassic Park (only the first part), brought a revolution to the moviemaking with his CGI-efects, so i think i deserves to be mentioned The Matrix (also only the first one) - the same as Jurassic Park The Lion King - the best animated film ever, forget about Shrek, Monsters Inc, Nemo, etc. LOTR - ok, the movie is very good, a little bit too flashy i think, but this movie doesnt have a plot,it just a good making of the Talken's book, and have anyone thought what will be the effect, if someone as good in making such movie adaptation of books as Richard Jackson make an adaptation of Stephen King's "The Dark Tower" (which i think will be done), i think that the effect will be astonishingly good One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Scarface, I havent seen so much cocaine in any other movie Not in my top ten, but its a must see : Interstate 60 | ||

I remember making a huge thread just like this a while back and talking about some of these movies I just thought were verrrrry overrated. American Beauty (didnt like) Requiem for a dream And what's with SWAT being on peoples list. This movie had the most far fetched plot ive seen in a while. Some guy who is rich tells people watching the news broadcats he'll give them all kinds of money if they break him out. Then u've got gangs and people risking their lives going to war with the police all based on some guy who they have no idea what his credibility is about. I thought this movie was alright for entertainment purposes but definitely shuldnt be on a top movies list. | ||

I'm not the biggest expert on the Matrix trilogy (cause it takes so much effort), but I've read enough to know there's alot more to it than most people think | ||

I mean take the Matrix. If you have seen Ghost in the Shell well doesn't it make you think, "hmmm they've stolen some ideas there?". And if you read a lot of SF most aspects of both movies would ring a bell cause there are a lot of SF writers who write about post apocalyptic societies, AI and virtual excistence. Anyways it doesn't make the movie worse i think. I would like to see more movie makers steal cool concepts out of books. Maybe there would be less of those shit movies out there. | ||

It was all a bit too unrealistic to interest me, but it could be me.. : O Better to steal something good then make something bad. I mean take the Matrix.

Anyways it doesn't make the movie worse i think. I would like to see more movie makers steal cool concepts out of books. Maybe there would be less of those shit movies out there. True, but there already is a movie about 1984 (1984), and I think it's also hard to enjoy a movie of which you've already seen the plot if it offers nothing but an interesting story. My biggest problem with this movie was that it wasn't realistic in any way though : o If you think 'omg this is bs this couldn't possibly ever happen in real life' (this only counts if a future earth is the setting, so no SF or Fantasy), then it becomes pretty hard to appreciate what you see. | ||

it made perfect sense the way they put it. not compared to the way our world may be as it is today, but what movie holds its own with that criterium? spiderman? matrix? i don't like that excuse so much.. if the movie is unrealistic within it's own boundaries, then yes I agree it can ruin a whole movie, but that's not the case here. | ||
