It's so hard to come up with a list of my favorite movies. Here, in no particular order, are a few of my favorites that no one else has mentioned yet:
The Seven Samurai
Yojimbo
To Catch a Thief
North by Northwest
Arsenic and Old Lace
Castle in the Sky
Grave of the Fireflies
Casablanca
The Italian Job (the original one)
Finding Nemo
Duck Soup
Dr. Strangelove, or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
The Pink Panther
Terminator 2 (edited, of course)
There are others, but I can't think of them right now.
you like Akira Kurosawa, eh? totally amazing stuff. and i saw Finding Nemo last night and i thoroughly enjoyed it.
Akira Kurosawa is awesome. I'd like to see more of his movies, but I've only seen the 4 that I own. (Those being The Seven Samurai, The Hidden Fortress, Yojimbo, and Sanjuro)
I think Finding Nemo is the best of the Disney/Pixar movies so far. It is so funny.
Isn't Monsters Inc. Disney and Pixar? If so, have you seen that? It's amazing!!!
I've seen it, and while I agree that the animation is amazing, I thought that the banter among the workers seemed a bit too forced. I think that Finding Nemo is a bit better in that respect.
Seriously? I think Monsters Inc. is pure brilliance, just the whole idea of it! Finding Nemo was funny..but I wasn't overly impressed by it.
I need to watch Monster's Inc. again, but from what I remember, while it was a great idea and it was funny, it wasn't as hilarious as a lot of Finding Nemo was. The sharks and the "fish are friends, not food" scene is hysterical, and I absolutely loved the surfer-bum sea turtles. I don't know; to each his own I guess.
i just give such credit to the person who sat awake at night and thought, "what if there really are monsters? what if their entire world is based on scaring little children and that's their power? and kids are not getting scared as easily. but laughter is more powerful! let's use it" who thinks of these things1?!?? but i love this movie so much just because of how absolutely original it is.
OHHHH snap! I only watched about half of it and was saving it for later...now I know what happens in the end.
