    Um, okay.
    We're obviously seeing different things.. but that's cool.
    I love a lot of movies that are sincerely sucky, so I really shouldn't talk.
    I just embrace their bad-ness.

    Wow, some really cool movies here! I had every intention of listing 25. Then I started to remember more, and couldn't hold back.

    So, in no paticular order, and just what came to mind:

    1 - princess bride
    2 - lost boys
    3 - godfather 1 & 2
    4 - goodfellas
    5 - the dark knight
    6 - Lord of the Rings
    7 - eurotrip
    8 - the sting
    9 - caine mutiny
    10 - the matrix
    11 - terminator 2
    12 - Kill Bill
    13 - pulp fiction
    14 - empire strikes back
    15 - shawshank redemption
    16 - halloween
    17 - the ring
    18 - aliens
    19 - silence of the lambs
    20 - the dark crystal
    21 - The Neverending Story
    22 - Die Hard
    23 - Superman - The Man of Steel
    24 - Unforgiven
    25 - Seven Samurai
    26 - Bad News Bears
    27 - Superman 2
    28 - batman begins
    29 - Spiderman
    30 - iron man
    31 - bad boys (penn, not smith)
    32 - manhunter
    33 - nightmare on elm street
    34 - 300
    35 - Airplane
    36 - Amadeus
    37 - crouching tiger, hidden dragon
    38 - E.T.
    39 - Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
    40 - Fight Club
    41 - The Fugitive
    42 - Glengarry Glen Ross
    43 - Groundhog Day
    44 - Memento
    45 - Midnight Run
    46 - The Natural
    47 - Old School
    48 - Rocky
    49 - Fallen
    50 - Frailty
    51 - Seven
    52 - The Shining
    53 - Superbad
    54 - Superman Returns
    55 - There's Something about Mary

    I stopped myself at 55, since it's already more then double what I should have put down. I should wait a few days and force myself to just pick 25 "essentials" and see what I come up with.

    Definitely will be adding some new movies to my Netflix queue today, that's for sure!

    Thanks all for giving me some fresh ideas!

    Darn, this is so hard, but I've been thinking on it some. Who would think it would be tough to find only 25 favorites! I have way more favorite movies than I can count, apparently.

    Okay, so here's my list ( at least this week ) and you'll notice some stinkers here and I will completely own that. These are my favorite movies and that doesn't necessarily mean they're good movies!

    In absolutely no order what so ever :

    1. To Kill A Mockingbird
    2. Godfather II
    3. Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back
    4. Almost Famous
    5. V for Vendetta
    6. Singin' In The Rain
    7. Gone With The Wind
    8. Footloose
    9. Hunt For Red October
    10. Juno
    11. Wild In The Streets
    12. Princess Bride
    13. Lara Croft: Tomb Raider
    14. RENT
    15. T2: Judegement Day
    16. Aliens
    17. Ghost World
    18. Pi
    19. Bound
    20. Brokeback Mountain
    21. Goonies
    22. The Philadelphia Story
    23. The Station Agent
    24. Billy Elliot
    25. Velvet Goldmine

    ( I've got so many "honorable mentions" that I could take up a whole page )
