Ohhh I agree, I could go on and on about movies that I have enjoyed and are favorites. 5 best is very limited but I don't think there's enough space for each of us to list our 100 best movies.....lol

Agreed! I left so many off my list and tried to be atypical and not list war films.

Ohhh see, I didn't get into that topic either, but there are so many wars movies that are fantastic.

Ooo. You're partial to slashers. Did you like X, Maxxxine and Pearl? I reckon you'd like those if you haven't seen that trilogy. Ichi The Killer made it in! Woman of culture, be still my heart.

Crossroads (for the guitar)
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
12 Angry Men
2001
Muppet's Christmas Carol.

Don't mention Jaws!

 

[EyesOnHers]

Yep, I enjoyed them.
X was my favourite... doubt it would make my top 20 though

 

[KatieKulka32]

Silence of the lambs
Clueless
Gladiator
Heartbreakers
Indiana jones

That's fair. Any particular reason?

 

[KatNipHigh]

Superman
Gladiator
300
Cruel intentions
Rocky
Fast and the furious

I like those too. The last one, Fast and the furious, they have so many of them now I'm waiting for them to show Vin Diesel using a walker soon....lol

 

[KatieKulka32]

And a wheelchair accessible vehicle

 

[KatieKulka32]

Superman
Gladiator
300
Cruel intentions
Rocky
Fast and the furious

Cruel intentions is a good one ...

 

[RDM97756]

I know super cheesy very unrealistic, but they are nostalgic and they make me smile

I think you got a good point The Rock and Vin Diesel put each other in wheelchairs after big fight

Too bad Lit doesn't have a stream feature so we can watch movies together. I had a Oscar award nom catch up night with some US friends not long ago via stream and it was so fun.

 

[Dayhoosier]

This is hard as horror is my go to genre.
So trying to mix it up a bit and only listing 2 horrors...

Frontier(s)
 Jaws
Natural Born Killers
Die Hard
Princess Bride

I love that princess Bride made the cut with those others

But also solid list!!

Princess Bride is the most quotable movie. My trainer still quotes it to this day. That and Blues Brothers.
