    [​IMG] My favorite movie of all time is probably "Oceans Eleven"! I think it was well made, had an excellent plot, and was simply exciting and thrilling, full of suspense throughout. If you have not seen it, I would highly reccomend it!

    I hope you're referring to the Rat Pack version, not the "Julia Roberts has 3 lines yet gets $18million" version...

    The former was great, the latter merely okay IMO.

    I'd have to go with Real Genius, with Val Kilmer. One of his few comedies and was hilarious. Don't know why he stopped doing comedies. :(

    "The Usual Suspects" runs a close second, followed by the ever-inspiring "The Karate Kid" (it's an American cinematic masterpiece, and I'll crane-kick anyone who says otherwise :cool: ).

    In no particular order:

    The Usual Suspects
    Finding Forrester
    Amelie (French movie)
    Jaws 1 & 2 (really old but still scares the wits out of me.)

    @Death Rabbit, I still remember Kilmer's Top Secret. :D

    Babe

    Harvey (how can you not like a film about a 6' invisible white rabbit)
    A Wonderful Life
    Lawrence of Arabia
    Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
    The Outlaw Josie Wales


    oh and loads of other.....

    Pretty well any porn movie :evil:

    No, I don't watch that stuff, but seriously, here's some of my favorites:

    Gladiator, A River Runs Through It, The whole Indiana Jones series, Supercop, Braveheart, The Sixth Sense, ShawShank, The Green Mile, the whole Pink Panther series, Red Dragon, Play Misty for Me, Sound of Music, Top Hat, the original Cape Fear, Clash of the Titans, Aliens, War of the Roses.

    Some of these (like Clash . . .) are hrrible movies, but they have nostalgic value for me, so I love them.
