My top faves (can't really make an order, as they are very different from each other):

Hudsucker Proxy - beautifully written and acted. The characters are rich and I love the flow and also the art direction

The Lost Boys - such a classic! I mean Jack Bauer with a mullet - you can't go wrong.

Empire of the Sun - I am so glad I fell in love with this movie before Christian Bale grew up - I kept marveling at what an amazing actor this "kid" was. When I see his movies now, I still connect him in my mind back to this movie.

The Great Escape - again, a classic.

Repo the Genetic Opera - when I first saw this, I was blown away because it was so different from other "horror movies". If you haven't seen it then try it out. This has such an amazing twist and I promise you'll end up buying the soundtrack.

Fifth Element - I never get tired of watching this one. I'm a huge Gary Oldman fan and I love how he portrays Zorg. Helps that I'm also a Bruce Willis fan and Milla Jovovich fan, too.

Titanic - SHUT UP don't laugh at me.

Raiders of the Lost Ark - to me, this is definitely a MOVIE. It has everything - comedy, action, romance, fantasy.

Mystery Men - a lot of people apparently hate this movie, but it cracks me up every time. And Geoffry Rush is gold.

Clockwork Orange - I think it's the dialogue in this movie and Malcolm McDowell's delivery of it that I like the best.

Honorable mentions:

The Professional - great acting

300 - a bunch of manly men running around - sooo much eye candy. :towel:

True Romance - again with the Gary Oldman

Die Hard trilogy - just darned fun to watch

I'm sure there's more that I've forgotten.

I've been thinking about it, but it just seems to change with mood

btw good call on The General

Have you seen Sherlock Jr.?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sherlock,_Jr.#Critical_reception

I saw it a few months back and it totally blew me away. I've recommended it to like 15 people since then, and I don't think a single one has watched it. I really enjoyed The General, but this was even better.

Keaton's high moments were just as good as Chaplin's imo.
