What are your favorite films of all time? (Page 2 of 2)

I cry EVERY time when Optimus Prime dies.  lol 

No worries Maven, I thought Grace was great.  Definitely one of the better horror movies I've seen so far this year.  It had quite a few disturbing moments, which surprised me, considering that most movies don't phase me at all.

The original Star Wars trilogy.
TRON.
The first Ghostbusters  movie.

Escape from NY.
RHPS.

Wow, there's some great movies here...I love reading these and seeing ones I've forgotten about.
I know I'll be forgetting a lot, but here's some of my favourites, in very rough order from most to not-so-most favourite...

Miracle Mile (my all-time favourite movie EVER)
Braindead
Spaceballs
300
Die Hard
Cloverfield
Lord of the Rings
Swordfish
The Dark Knight
Tommy Boy

These top 10 are the ones I watch over and over again, no matter how many times they're on TV and no matter what else I might have to do. If I have an opportunity to see them, my life goes on hold.
The rest are...

Citizen Kane
Hatchet
Signs
Jaws (I see a lot of people here love this movie...I'm one of them)

Like I said, I'm sure there's a lot more, but I'm pretty sure I got the bulk of them.

I forgot all 4 Indiana Jones and all 6 Star Wars and all 3 Lord of the Rings

Hey deadhorse, no remakes, eh?  Since you say all Cronenberg, The Fly is a remake.  And since you say most Connery Bond flicks, Never Say Never Again is a remake of Thunderball.:P 

And I'm not even going to try to top that list.
