Obligatory Favorite Movies Thread

I am baffled by many peoples choices for worst movie ever and curious what these same people enjoy watching.

A few of my choices.


Brazil
Life Aquatic
Dr Strangelove
Amilie

Indiana Jones films
James Bond films that don't star Pierce Boresnan or George Lazy
The Transporter
Pulp Fiction
Star Wars
Mad Max 2
...

There are many, but I'll give a shout out to 80's Arnold action movies.

Don't make me quote "Commando".

"Don't disturb my friend, he's dead tired"

Classic film!

Chopping mall, humanoids from the deep, intruder, Thou shalt not kill except, godzilla movies, street trash, deathrace 2000, the burbs, blood diner, ingmar bergman movies, bridge over the river kwaii, apocalypse now, in the mouth of madness, total recall, etc etc too many.

Television, I like the trailor park boys show from Canada and there isn't really anything else on worth watching except sports, mostly NBA.

The Terminator
Die Hard (1 & 3)
Good Bad & the Ugly
Falling Down
Paths of Glory
This is Spinal Tap
Waiting for Guffman
Best in Show
