Best Movie Ever Created?

ExCeL 52 · Dec 20, 2008

Yep that one big question...

What IS the Best movie EVER?

In my opinon its Shawshank Redemption...

Close ones are American History X, Gladiator, Wanted, and Dark Knight ...

What do you think?

Really dude?

Really?

Colenstien · Dec 20, 2008

You have a problem with kids turing into kittens, befriending Elivis impersonating roosters, and taking down tyrannical owls?

Stroupes · Dec 20, 2008

The Brave Little Toaster. Or Holes.

You listed Seven Pounds. You're not allowed to make fun of anyone else's choice.

But honestly, the best movie ever made is The Great Mouse Detective.

Nintendevil · Dec 20, 2008

There Will Be Blood

Seven pounds is a great movie.

It sounds corny but, honestly, I think the most well-done movie(s) are the Lord of the Rings movies.

Hmmm thinking about it yeah... those are some amazing movies.

Probably one of the few movies that can live up to the novels.

I'll admit that I haven't seen it myself. But I know of several critics who disagree with you. Strongly. From the first trailer I saw, it just looks like Oscar bait. And the reviews I've read only affirm that idea.

ExCeL 52 · Dec 20, 2008

Go watch the movie and find out for yourself then...

Circus · Dec 20, 2008

I don't think I will. Seems like a waste of money to me. I'll be sure to catch it on TV or something though, because I am curious to see exactly why it's getting the responses it's getting. Most reviewers are keeping pretty hush-hush on the specifics of the plot.

Regardless, my point is that with so many people against the movie, I think it's fair to say that it isn't any closer to being "the best movie ever made" than Rock-a-doodle.

I didnt state it being the best movie ever created I said close...
Nothing will ever touch Shawshank

Idk why people are gettin mixed feeling over the movie. Some Love it and many Hate it .. I guess its just the type of person you are.

These are all good choices. Casino Royale might be pushing it though.

More notable additions:

Pulp Fiction, 300, Jaws, Star Wars 4-6, Iron Man, Dark Knight, and of course, The Graduate.

Among MANY.

And Casino Royale was awesome. I have never seen a Bond like Craig.

One of the best...

There's no such thing as a best movie ever it's just like asking what's the best car ever or the best video game ever or best anime ever. It just doesn't work because everyone has their own taste for things.

ALSO ARMY OF DARKNESS.

Circus · Dec 21, 2008

Daniel Craig's eyes are TOO BLUE. I don't understand them. They must be tampered with.

Also, Fight Club is definitely one of my favorites. Edward Norton is brilliant in that movie.

Crimson King · Dec 21, 2008

There Will Be Blood and the Departed are in my top 10, then American History X and Fight Club are also in there as is Requiem for a Dream, but my favorite movie of all time: Taxi Driver. I mean look at the avatar...

Requiem for a Dream made me feel ill after I watched it the first time. Everyone gets ****ed in that movie. It was great, but I don't think I would watch it again intentionally.

I was meaning to see There Will Be Blood....

Crimson King · Dec 21, 2008

Truth be told, I love Requiem for a Dream because of Clint Mansell's amazing soundtrack.

Wikipedia · Dec 21, 2008

Also, Clockwork Orange anyone?

EDIT: Oh wait this is a movie discussion not a novel discussion.

Blackadder · Dec 21, 2008

I dunno, Clockwork the movie is pretty good too.

*beams*

Pulp Fiction is pretty beyond awesome. ... Y'know, actually, I can't really say my favorite movie. There are too many great ones.

I'll just say A Goofy Movie and walk off.

You know, that's not such a bad reason. That soundtrack is legendary. I heard music from Requiem before I ever saw a single shot of it.

I've never seen A Clockwork Orange. That's another flick I should stick on my to-watch list.

kigbariom · Dec 21, 2008

My favorite (not actually movie but mini-series) was and always will be Band of Brothers.
It is flawless, the best piece of film in the history of man.

Airgemini · Dec 21, 2008

I love Titanic, it's a really nice movie.

#HBC | Mac · Dec 21, 2008

I loved Shawshank Redemption.. i don't really know why anyone wouldn;t. Fight Club was great too, but I just wish I read the book first cause the books are always better.

Catch Me if You Can and City of God are two movies that had such an impact on me.
The Prestige is another good one, which was basically one huge mind****.
Tarzan is probably my best animated/childrens movie... by far. Phil Collins is beast.

Viroxor · Dec 21, 2008

My favorite movies are Pulp Fiction, The Hunchback Of Notre Dame (The Disney version), and Blade Runner.

You know what they call a quarter-pounder with cheese in France?

'Nuff said.

Mazaloth · Dec 21, 2008

Battle Royal.

SSBMasterFox · Dec 21, 2008

Okay, I'm done.

Pullvie · Dec 21, 2008

American History X is too good.
