"Right now...
John Wick 1-3
Not watched part 3 yet! Is it good? Part 1 was great!
If you watch 2, 3 makes perfect sense and it leaves it open for a #4. I liked them all."
3 is OK. But they are getting a bit repetitive now. I'm sure there, will be a, 4, 5, 6 and beyond if the makers feel it still has legs. John wick 1 is by far the best though |

I honestly could not 100% fully answer it as there are too many factors.
I like classics, I like the superhero genre (that movie snobs love to hate on), I like some "shitty" indie movies, I like animated (golden age Disney and computer animated).
However top of my head based on ultimate childhood nostalgia (and because its good!), Jurassic Park. |

"For me... "The Last Jedi" replaced "A New Hope" as my all time favourite after 43 years.

Fascinating, if you'd said The Force Awakens I'd understand. Similar films. I rewatched The Last Jedi on Fri and it just doesn't hold up for me once you get over the excitement of having Luke and Leia in a film again ... |

Gremlins, Event Horizon, Train to Busan, The Shining, Mulholland Drive and Pan's Labyrinth (also Hercules but that doesn't sound particularly cool!). And I can't narrow them down. It'll probably change tomorrow. |

From fear of trotting out some of the usual suspects (that a great picture if you've not seen it) thought I would mention some lesser know and newer ones.
Glass(2019)
Hell In The Pacific(1968)
Super Dark Times(2017)
Fearless(1993)
The Angriest Man In Brookyn(2014)
Sorcerer(1977)
Seconds(1965)
99 Homes(2014)
Could go on and on. Btw watched the exorcist 2 last week starring Richard Burton. It's not as bad as they say it is....It's even worse than that.It's even has a score of 3.8/10. How did it get such a high rating. |

Event Horizon saw this when it was on at the cinema.It's what they call the shining in space but without Jack Nicholson. But Lawrence Fishburne & Sam Neill can hold their own in acting prowess just fine. |

The feel of the film and the emotional connection impact that it had on me was so reminiscent of how I felt watching a New Hope back in 1977.

"If I were to pick just one it would have to be The Usual Suspects.
Great plot, acting and a brilliant twist  "
First rate choice of film, But you mentioned the twist, I always find it best to never mention if a story has some sort of twist or revelation, because then viewers will try to guess what that twist will be. It best if your not suspecting something then when it happens you go wow.  |

Wish they had adapted the second book Gump and Co but Tom hanks didn't want to do it and it wouldn't have been the same with a different actor. |

I think they could have very easily worked around that. Forest decided the next legacy in his venture would be to change sex. Enter Jennifer Lawrence.
But seriously i didn't know there was a follow up book. Now that was a twist for myself. |

Clockwork Orange

Quadrophenia
The Italian Job (original, NOT the one with BMW's!)
The Lost Boys

Arrgh. I find questions like this so tough as it changes day to day. Can't narrow it down to one, but up there would be:
Trading Places
Groundhog Day
Big Lebowski
The Shining
Unforgiven
Jaws
Magnolia
Mulholland Drive
Kill Bill Vol 2
Breakfast Club

Phantom Thread at the minute. Also got blown away by Bait recently.
Have a soft spot for The Philadelphia Story too.
And The Snowman. And The Good, the bad, and the Ugly. And The Empire Strikes Back.
Shit. What was the question? |
