After too much but not enough consideration:

1. To Kill a Mockingbird
2. Casablanca
3. The Fellowship of the Ring
4. Cannibal! The Musical
5. The Rocky Horror Picture Show

(Honourable Mentions: Riki-Oh, Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter, The Thing, Shakespeare in Love)

I love how the classiness of my list starts out on a plateau, stumbles, then takes an instant swan dive.

And bottoms out at Shakespeare in Love.

Which fellowship?

Pick the top five trashiest animated movies you can think of. That's my top five.

Burrito Al Pastor · « **Reply #5 on:** August 30, 2010, 09:26:40 PM »

Ralph Bakshi's "Lord Of The Rings"? On a top five films list? You're trolling.

Rosencrantz · « **Reply #6 on:** August 30, 2010, 09:43:25 PM »

I guess these are just movies that I really enjoy a lot, more than movies that would traditionally be considered "great".

1. Hot Fuzz
2. Batman Begins
3. The Iron Giant
4. Up
5. Fellowship of the Ring

Lottel · « **Reply #8 on:** August 30, 2010, 10:25:01 PM »

UP
Iron Giant
Rocky Horror Picture Show
SW: A New Hope
Back to the Future

Fuck. I only own RHPS. And this is completely different than "Favorite Movies" and are judged by my own ridiculous criteria.

Fortinbras · « **Reply #9 on:** August 30, 2010, 11:01:35 PM »

There Will Be Blood, Oldboy, The Passenger, In Bruges, Paprika. Except for There Will Be Blood and The Passenger, the list is given to capricious changes. I tend to have favourite writers or directors rather than specific movies by them.

1.Repo the Genetic Opera
2.Red Vs Green
3.Nightmare before christmas

2.Red Vs Green.

Are you talking about the Lupin movie, Green Vs Red?

Joxam · « **Reply #12 on:** August 31, 2010, 03:24:30 AM »

Raging Bull, A Streetcar Named Desire, Apocalypse Now, Taxi Driver, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. Definitely not in that order and probably not even those movies. Just the first that popped into my mind.

I don't think I could ever reasonably name a top five of any kind, but the first five to come to mind as favourites that I could watch again and again (in no particular order) are:

The Shawshank Redemption
Slap Shot
The Good The Bad & the Ugly
The Man Who Would Be King
Royal Space Force: Wings of Honnaemise

Honourable mentions go to Black Belt Jones, The Blues Brothers, Blazing Saddles, UP and Wall-E

Bal · « **Reply #14 on:** August 31, 2010, 05:58:29 AM »

In no particular order, the first five movies I really love off the top of my head.

Pulp Fiction
12 Angry Men (1957)
WALL-E
The Royal Tenenbaums
Downfall (Der Untergang)

James Edward Smith · « **Reply #15 on:** August 31, 2010, 06:23:23 AM »

Wings of Honneamise (I needed to feel those wings, to reach the greater heights...)
The Matrix
No Country for Old Men
Memento
The Room

People's tastes in movies is really different sometimes. Like I really didn't enjoy most of The Royal Tenenbaums but I loved Rushmore and The Life Aquatic.

Büge · « **Reply #16 on:** August 31, 2010, 09:06:11 AM »

It varies. Pick five of these.

Ocean's Eleven (2001)
Fantasia
The Incredibles
The Shawshank Redemption
2001: A Space Odyssey
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Labyrinth
LOTR: Fellowship
Chocolat
The Usual Suspects

François · « **Reply #17 on:** August 31, 2010, 09:35:47 AM »

The Untouchables
Road to Perdition
Death of a Tea Master
Chinatown
Tous les matins du monde

I might not have thought to mention that fifth one had the question been asked earlier, but it so happens that Alain Corneau died two days ago and upon reflection I realized that Tous les matins du monde is my favorite French-language movie of all time.
