This is informal and not a project. If anyone tallys a complete list I'm using my "one free person to permaban" powers that Xam definitely told me I have once he just doesn't remember.
Anyways put together a list of movies that you'd consider your favorites. It can be 10 films long, it can be 80 films long, I don't give a flying fuck. It's almost Christmas or whatever just..just tell me what you like. Thank you.

I grade these by how hard it is to pass up when it comes on TV. Movies I won't change if they're on: Godfather 1&2 Rocky Goodfellas (this is probably #1 actually) Star Wars 4-6 Silence of the Lambs (it gets funnier every time) Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome Robocop LotR trilogy Stepbrothers If I put Empire Strikes Back on, I almost never make it off Hoth before I fall asleep. Similar with Fellowship of the Ring. Never make it out of the Shire.  |

Eternal Sunshine is still my favorite by far. It would take a lot of thought and effort to pull together a list from there.
I've said it before, I've completely fallen off of watching movies over the past 5 years or so unfortunately. Damn kids.

The first Dumb and Dumber is so great. I like a lot of Mel Brooks and the Austin Powers movies, too, and other really intentionally dumb stuff. I tend to memorize and repeat the dialog to those movies the most.
Oh, let's not forget Airplane!

I went three times, and I don't think I've seen any other movie in theaters more than once. |

Oh gosh... I need to wake up. How can I forget Back to the Future? It's probably easily in my top 3.
Also, all the early Spielberg/Spielberg-involved hits, as well. How I glazed over those is shameful.

I simply cannot take serious that imdb list so long as The Dark Knight is considered one of the top ten films of all time.
