Absolute favorite though, definitely goes to 'Raging Bull.' Yes, as you can tell I'm a huge De Niro and Scorsese fan.

"Haunt me, take any form. Only, do not leave me in this abyss where I cannot find you."
You left out the second one and it makes me laugh because that was easily my least favorite of the three as well. Just out of curiosity, what was it about the movie you didn't like...or at least didn't like as well as the other two?Originally Posted by SleepyWitch
Gone with the Wind(1939)
It's a wonderful life(1946)
Pride and Prejudice(2005)
Hitler:the rise of eveil(2000)
Ben Hur(1951)
Titanic(1997)
Hum Tum....I can watch it another 100 times
(it is one of my favourites, i'll keep posting my other favourites as well)
I'll tell you what I didn't like about The Two Towers: Rohan and all the fighting. The whole movie was about the battle at Helms Deep. Do we have a snoring Smiley here? Because it was not so great.
Now, my favorite movies:
1) All Star Wars
2) FOTR
3) Friday Night Lights
4) The Hours
5) Imaginary Heroes
6) Clay Pigeons
7) Bad Santa
"...if you weren't smart enough to get a pedophile in a dress to put a small amount of water on the child’s forehead, then what the eff did you think was going to happen?
For me it wasn't the time devoted to the battle that rankled me, it was the fact that A) there were Elves there and B) the Rohirrim looked like a bunch of weak, scared old men which they most certainly were not and C) Eomer wasn't there.Actually, there was very little I did like about that movie, very, very little.
the luminous grass of the prairie hides
feet lovely and still as sleeping doves,
porcelain bones strong enough to carry a life,
but weighty and unmovable
As black Dakota hills. ~ Riesa
Snatch
starwars (I like the originals the best)
Harvey
Donnie Darko
The cartoon version of Watership Down(the book is better but that goes without saying)
anyone notice a theme here (I would put the noise rabbits make here but they don´t really make any noises)
The secret of Nihm
Fight club
Interview with a Vampire
Queen of the Damned(its difficult because QDmovie only vaugely reasembles the book)
Pulp Fiction
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
LORT series(both peter jackson and cartoon)
These are in no particular order I love them all. Also other than Donnie Darko and Harvey(which began as a magnificant play) they are all based on some really goof books. All of the books are better than the movie. The reason reality and CGI are to restraining. Words are free.

"Hiroshima, mon amour"- Resnais
"The Trial"- Welles
"The Red Desert"-Antonioni

Heh, I've seen "Hour Of The Wolf" since making my list, it's great but I still prefer "The Seventh Seal".
