Post Top 5 Favorite Movies

List your top 5 favorite movies in descending order. Trilogies can count as one movie.

My favorite are:

5. Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls - No movie makes me laugh more

4. Forest Gump - It has a wonderful epic quality, and it really moved me

3. Casablanca - A timeless, and romantic, snapshot of life's difficult choices

2. The Last Waltz by The Band - The greatest movie about rock & roll ever

1. Lord of the Rings Trilogy - Maybe its because the books captured my imagination, but the only criticism of Peter Jackson's work is what he left out (Tom Bombadil, The Scouring of the Shire), not his interpretation. Tolkien was a genius, and these movies capture that genius, as well as the author's enthusiasm.

in no specific order, my favorite 5 movies are: Pulp Fiction, Jules and Jim, The Royal Tenenbaums, Annie Hall, and the Godfather -- but not the whole trilogy, just parts 1 and 2.

5. Exorcist -- Any movie with a girl with such multitasking prowess (spininng head while simultaneously yacking) is automatically awesome

3. Goonies -- Chunk was at my school a couple weeks ago!
2. SpaceBalls -- "Combing" the Desert!
1. Office Space -- Milton Rules!
