Thread 214040034

Post your ACTUAL favorite movie.

I don't care how cringey, how embarrassing, how shitty, how dumb, I wanna see it. I don't care if it's a children's film, if it's nearly 100 years old. I want to know what your REAL favorite movie is.

Not the one that seems like the right choice.

It's truly a shame we'll never get another kino like this because Shane is a raging schizo. Then again if he weren't, he may never have been able to make it.

Gladiator

>>214040090
What even happened to him? Wasn’t he writing some script about large wooden robots or am I actually the schizo?

The Fifth Element
or
The Mummy (BF)
or
Mystery Men
or
Galaxy Quest

>>214040034 (OP)
Dark City. It just so happens to be my favorite film AND the right choice. Enjoy good sir.

It's an incredible blend of surrealism, sci fi, misery, introspection, and bittersweet love. And the music is really great.
It's great.

>>214040090
I just read the synopsis. Holy fuck. I'm gonna have to watch that.

>>214040034 (OP)
No.
Fuck you Market Research-chan

Tremors

First time I watched was on VHS, which was dated even for 2005, but I think it helped cement it as my all- timer

none of these movies are bad in any way and in fact are probably universally liked

214041047

>>214041952
only actual dogshit movie so far that you should be embarrassed to call your favorite

this thread sucks
4cuck's retarded niggerkike system thinks this post is spam but will let actual page filling posts designed for spam get through. FUCK YOU KIKENIPMOOT AND FUCK YOUR TRANNY RETARD JANNIES

>Mystery Men
All good picks, but Mystery Men always seems underrated to me

>>214040034 (OP)
Return of the King

Sorry but it's the pinnacle of Hollywood for me.
It all went down afterwards and never reached that height again.

>>214040034 (OP)
Tron Legacy and it's not even close.

>>214041047
Based. Proyas is the master at building atmosphere in a film

>>214042211
Same, though when I was a kid I liked Robocop 2 more

>>214043307
it was one of those "watch it every time you see it on" movies back in the day.

this, or maybe kingdom of heaven dc

asteroid city
the "you can't wake up if you don't fall asleep" scene does something to my brain and soul that i can't explain

>>214041047
>>214041282
i also like these

>>214044183
>people talking about random shit: the movie

Truthfully, only watched the first 30 or so minutes but god it was boring and went seemingly nowhere. And I like the trippy pretentious kind of movies most don't like, see image.

Pretty hard to beat this one

>>214041047
Good choice anon. I am a connoisseur of psychic duels and this is one of the best psychic battles ever caught on film, number one being Scanners of course.

Unironically one of the best films of all time

>>214040034 (OP)
I don't like your "everyone secretly thinks like me" faggot mentality. That being said Hellboy is really cool.

or this

>>214044264
it filtered the fuck out of my then wife, too.
my shortest explanation is that it is a "sentient, universally foreign film".
it "senses" that you can understand some events/situations despite the language barrier (you should be able to recognize situations of grief/joy/humor. film trickles these in slowly from the start, language barrier artificially made by dropping you in the middle of a meandering plot and increases throughout), then starts rearranging itself to increase the frequency and intensity of those events/situations you can understand until the movie is "language-less-ly" speaking directly to you, but in a way that should have walked you towards realizing it was doing that gradually.
if you can never connect with any of the situations and events and are just there for a visual spectacle or don't realize what is happening, the movie just seems boring and confusing a la "but i did have breakfast this morning"

Saw this at 17 and I've been a piece of shit ever since.

Gamera Guardian of the Universe.

There's just something about it

>the dialogue
>the story
>the music
>that blockbuster feel of big production

Picrel all time favourite, probably seen it about 30 times since I was a kid

>most kino director of all time
>about being trapped in an endless dream
>different animators for every scene to really enforce that dream like quality
>got a bunch of different professors, writers, philosophers and authors and just, as the zoomoids would say, "let them cook"
>and finally: quite possibly one of the best soundtracks of all time. I imagine this is what will play in my mind as I die and my brain releases a bunch of chemicals that cause my consciousness to float along forever in an eternal dream

There is no greater kino in this world than Waking Life. If you haven't seen it before, you're doing yourself a disservice. Even if you hate the movie and the plot and script, you can't deny that from a technical standpoint, it's a marvel of animation and artistry.

There hasn't been a movie like this since, and there likely never will be.

Favourite hollywood movie is picrel. There are numerous movies I consider much better, but I just can't get enough of the giant robot vs dino-monster fights. It's eternally comfy.

>>214040034 (OP)
Fight Club. Idc if it's a pseud or dude bro pic, it's my favourite film and it had a profound impact on my life.

GOAT

>>214040034 (OP)
Hellboy 2 is freakin awesome, too bad it got over shadowed by The Dark Knight.

>>214040034 (OP)
robocop 1

Glenngarry Glen Ross.

Shame is the most emotionally affecting movie I've ever seen, I love the escalation and de-escalation of tension. They establish Sissy trying to call Brandon over and over and you're thinking "damn these two have a really unsalvageable relationship" then when she just shows up inside his apartment in a minute they're laughing. It really do be that way.

Nice, I was just thinking a moment ago about how much I liked the portrayal of the Riddler in this. There was this weird little one-off supplemental thing included I think with a deluxe edition of the Killing Joke or something where there was this weedy guy with glasses explaining that he needed to know if he was really a good person and the only way to check would be to do something horrible and then see if he felt bad afterward. He poses the idea of feeding a little girl to sewer rats or something then decides that's not bad enough and decides he's going to kill the Batman. Anyway Dano was a dead ringer for the guy and he seemed more like that one-off character than the Riddler. But in a cool way.

>First one is the most complete package
>Second one is the most wildly excessive
>third one is kinda dull until the scene where Will and Elizabeth get married in the middle of a maelstrom/boarding attack, where is inexplicably becomes the best film of all time for a few minutes

>>214040034 (OP)
Saw this in theaters on a matinee with my parents when I was like 8 or 9. Honestly watching Hellboy in theaters was a cornerstone moment of my childhood, & thankful that my folks took me to see it back than

Joe Dirt is a masterpiece

Runaway Train

I think I'd have to take Golden Army over 2004 personally

This, but only because the Russel and Carpenter commentary track adds a layer of comedy to the movie that I like to go back to to have a good laugh

>>214046220
I couldn't catch Golden Army at the multi-plex, but I remember it being up there in entertainment factor for me. I remember Seth McFarlanes character making me lol
