GREATEST FLIM OF ALL TIME - WHY

[kimko]

whassamatter didn't like my definition of a flim.

 

[safarijoe]

This whole discussion is just silly. Everyone knows that Encino Man is the greatest achievement in cinematic history.

Naaa! Up in Smoke!:grin:

You pick any movie and someone can find a flaw. Nothing is perfect, no film is the best.

The Godfather is perfect.

 

[jamestmather]

...as is Breakin'2 - Electric Boogaloo.

 

[stabwound]

Spartacus.

Great acting, direction, photography and score.

I sniffle every time I see it... really moving.

[mmm]

Spartacus.

Great acting, direction, photography and score.

I had a bath and dinner whilst watching that film and came back and the story hadn't progressed! Damn long film! :grin:

that's the film that i can actually say that it molded my personality,as a rebelious son of a b that i am. i'm always trying to get people to speak up and fight for their rights and sometimes they totally agree,but when the masters want to know who is instagating it .well i'm left standing alone, it's not that they push me out in front of them, they all take one giant step back......awww you gotta love it.......natural born loser THE NEW SPARTCUS......

Greates Film of All Time: The Karate Kid

Come on, like there is any doubt about it. Daniel-san kicks ass, Mr. Miyagi kicks ass, Johnny kicks ass, Sensei Kreese kicks ass, and - of course - The COBRA KAI KICK ASS!!!!!

You think Spartacus was a rebel? Give me a break.

Johnny Lawrence, that's a rebel.

This movie had it all. The drama, the action, the romance, and the ultimate villian - Sensei Kreese. Everyone should own a copy of this important film (for a definition of film, see PaleRider's entry at the beginning of this thread).

The way of the fist: STRIKE FIRST, STRIKE HARD, NO MERCY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

COBRA KAI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Ralph Oshiro]

My vote goes to either . . .

Clueless or Romy and Michele's High School Reunion

Now that's FILM! Or is it a motion picture? On DVD it's just a file. Or rather, a bitstream.

 

[Yas Kassana]

Ernest Goes Camping.

 

[mmm]

Anaconda.

The worst film to ever be sequelled.

 

[MovieSwede]

I think xXx takes that price.

And I still have a thing for Elizabeth Shue because of it.

Loved that movie!!

 

[Luis Caffesse]

Laurence is definitely one of the best flickers I've ever seen.
One of the great moving pictures shows of movie history.
Rarely has a photoplay moved me like that show did.

Truly a great work.
I'm just not sure it's really what I would call a "film"






Now Clash of the Titans on the other hand...
THAT is a fu#%ing film!

 

[Solomojo]

Me too likey Elizabeth Shue...not too shabby in Leaving Las Vegas...one of the best downward spiral movies ever.

Lawrence of Arabia is the worlds greatest single flim. For those of you who don't know what a flim is, it is one step higher than a motion picture. A flim will connect with the viewer on an emotional level where as your ordinary film or motion picture will only provide entertainment for the demented viewer. A flim is not a device for special effects rather it transports us to a another place where we can better understand and re-evaluate our lives.

I'm guessing this is your PERSONAL opinion.

the greatest film is such a sensitive and delicate issue just because people are affected in diferent ways. some are changed, ruled, obsessed, by a movie and what this represents; places, moments in their lives, people, etc.
I don't have a favorite one

 

[commalot]

It's diffucult to pick a BEST MOVIE. You can ask which had the best cinamatography. or best script, or best acting. Or you can ask which affected you the most. For me it was Star Wars, but I was at the premier in the Chinese theater. It was electric. Everybody stood up and clapped and cheered at the end. Now Star wars seems kind of corny.
Jaws scared me the most. Surfing was never quite as relaxed after that movie.

 

[David G. Smith]

I have avoided this thread, because "Best Movie of All Time" is so subjective. But WTF.

I gotta go with Gone With The Wind.

It is the total package. In real dollars, it is the highest grossing film of all time. It has been seen by more people than any other film in history. The making of the movie is legendary. What started as David O. Selznick's folly, turned into a great success. The Technicolor cinematography is outstanding (epecially on the big screen). The story is mythological and the characters are Icons. Vivian Leigh is a babe and Gable is... well, Gable. It don't get no better then this.

My biggest complaint is that Ashely Wilkes is a pu**y!
