Whenever I've been asked the question "What are your favorite movies?" in conversation, I've always found it better to ask "In which genre?" I have so many favorite movies that I break them down into categories because, to me, it's simply impossible to compare, say, a western to a science-fiction movie. It's comparing apples to oranges.

OMG! *smacks self* Talking to someone in game last night just made me realize I TOTALLY spaced on putting in my all time fave movie ever!

The Princess Bride!

Favorite line/scene:

Inigo: Who are you?
Roberts: No one of consequence.
Inigo: I must know.
Roberts: Get use to disappointment.
Inigo: *shrugs and whispers* K.

And in the runner-up category . . . .

"My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."

"Don't you know you NEVER get into a game of wits with a Sicilian when death is on the line, or a land war in Southeast Asia?"

"Every night when I helped the Dread Pirate Roberts dress for bed he would say to me: 'You're doing a terrific job. I'll probably kill you in the morning."

Ah, great movie that . . . .

If Snowdonia smacks herself again, I'm afraid I'll have to lock this thread.

That does qualify as verbal abuse, doesn't it? [;)]

More like masochism methinks, Lachew.

"A little more bondage, a little less discipline . . . ."

Being much, much older than everyone else here (8 grandkids), my favorite movie of all time starred Gary Cooper &Grace Kelly: High Noon. (I was still in cloth diapers when it was released, though.)
Then Disney's original Fantasia, from way before the word psychedelic was invented.
&Easy Rider and Blazing Saddles tied for 3rd place.
LoTR would have been my favourite, but they just cut out too much from the book.

Hackers
LOTR
Monty Python and the Holy grail
Army of Darkness
Legend
Enter the Dragon
Akira

President Scroobe - "Did you get the combination?"
Colonal Sanders - "Yes. The combination is 1-2-3-4-5"
President Scroobe - "1-2-3-4-5? That's amazing I have the same combination on my luggage!"
