MemberIn no particular order.
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
Transformers (1986) (All nostalgia)
Spider-man 2
Sin City

The MatrixThat's off the top of my head. I'm really not much of a critic, I like different things for different reasons. I really don't like to pick absolute favorites.

No Days of Thunder Jeremy!? Come on, show the movie you were in some love man!
Did anybody see the live action Tekken movie. Critics say it's God awful, but people who just enjoy movies tend to think it was ok. I'm eyeballing the Bluray right now, thinking real hard on if I should get it or not.

Haven't seen it, Ofaliss, but you can rent it on the PS Store, as a trial for whether to plunk down for owning a hard copy.
No order here . . . and plenty more I could add:
Star Trek: The Motion Picture
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country
Star Trek: First Contact
Project A-Ko
Tenchi Muyo! in Love
Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind
Super Dimension Fortress Macross: Do You Remember Love?
The Lord of the Rings trilogy
Seppuku (Harakiri)I'm also a big fan of Hong Kong martial arts movies (and I'd really love to see one last film with the "3 brothers," Sammo Hung, Jackie Chan, and Yuen Biao, back together), but I don't think I'd put any of them on a favorite movies list.

I finally got around to watching the ultimate cut of Watchmen last night. I've had that version for about 3 months and just found time to watch it.
But anyway. I forgot how badass of a movie it is! Definitely one of my top 10's now.
I've heard some say that Watchmen takes itself too seriously, but I want to punch those people in the face. I say we don't take the state of society serious enough and that the creator of Watchmen is trying to tell us this very thing. What will it take for us to see that, and how tragic will the event be? But I'm not going to preach on the current state of the world, I'll just make myself sound like an old fart!
But, I still can't get used to seeing Dr. Manhattan's junk flailing around from time to time.

MemberNo idea about live action but I can tell you my top 10 Western animated movies. This list isn't in any order.
01. A Goofy Movie (1995 Disney)
02. The Secret of NIMH ( 1982 Don Bluth Productions) The ending was horrible though but the rest of it is excellent
03. All Dogs Go to Heaven (1989 Sullivan Bluth Studios) Can you name another (western) animated movie with death, gambling, violence, smoking and a singing gator?
04. The Great Mouse Detective (1986 Disney)
05. Watership Down (1978 Nepenthe Productions)
06. The Fox And the Hound (1981 Disney)
07. The Plague Dogs (1982 Nepenthe Productions)
08. Sleeping Beauty (1959 Disney)
09. Toy Story (1995 Pixar)
10. How to Train Your Dragon (2010 Dreamworks)As you can see, I prefer the older animated movies compared to the ones today with the exception of #10. That was good enough to enter my top 10 list.

MemberWow, you're the first person I met who doesn't like/care for NIMH but you said you're not really a big fan of them so I can understand. #5 and #7 are actually British movies and are pretty realistic and dark/depressing. You should see #10 though. I never liked anything but Dreamworks but this is very different from what they normally do. Props to sniper712 for loving it too.
P.S. This may sound stupid to most people but I am not a Pixar fan. I still think Toy Story (the first movie they ever made) is simply the best one of the lot. It's well crafted and there's something magical about it, for lack of a better term, that makes it good. Their recent movies are just too preachy for me and I dunno, they're fun to watch once, but that's all.

Member@Freelance
your #10 is on my list too :D . i loved it cause it's well done and includes something i wish was possible in real life: riding on dragons. i prefer Toy story 2 since there's some great team up moments that i absolutely love. meet the other person who doesn't care about NIMH, but that's cause i have no clue about it or ever heard of its name till now.

MemberLike I said, I don't have a top 10 live action movie list but I can rattle off some movies that I do like a lot. That should give you something.
I enjoyed the following movies:
Alien
Aliens
Predator
Indiana Jones + sequels (Temple of Doom is my fave)
Terminator
Terminator 2
Star Wars episodes IV V and VI
Air Force One
Back to the Future
Lord of the Rings (it's not a trilogy, just one extra long story broken into 3 sections)
The Japanese Godzilla movies (2002 Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla is my fave)
Dog Soldiers (It's a werewolf movie in case you don't know)Posted 7 months ago # -

MemberHaha yeah I'm one of those people who don't really like the stuff of today. Sure there are some exceptions (I just didn't mention them because they're not 'best movie' material) but overall I think the older movies are more memorable to me and are classics. I think the same way about TV shows.
I am surprised nobody ratted on me about my Pixar stance though. It seems every animation fan is also a Pixar fan and would jump on anyone who says they don't like Pixar. You know, I used to love Disney but now I couldn't care less. I loved their old(er) movies and thought the newer ones (with exception of Bolt) doesn't capture the same magic the older movies did. Same with the TV shows. Ugh, their old cartoons were classic! Now it's just crap.
P.S. Not movie related but today they're going to release the Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter update for NA today. Wahoo!

Well, I like Pixar's work, but I'm not going to attack someone just because they have different tastes. Look at Ofaliss; he didn't like Ah My Goddess, but I didn't shorten his long intestine because of it. It's oookay!
Back in the 90s, Disney's TV cartoons suddenly took a turn from the fantastical (like TaleSpin) to the mundane (like Goof Troop, I think it was called). Actually, this seemed like a general shift, beyond just Disney. Though there were still some great American animated series during the 90s, particularly from Warner Bros., the spirit of adventure that had been common through the 80s until then seemed to fade into memories.
Also, wire work became pretty widespread in Hong Kong martial arts action movies in the 90s, beyond just films set in mystical "everybody flies" settings. That made things a little less spectacular in a way.
