rodders0223 Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Matthew Broderick is one of the worst actors to achieve mainstream success. I cannot watch a film with that guy in for more than 5 minutes. That includes that Ferris Buller and Wargames malarky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted October 13, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted October 13, 2014 Ferris Bueller is the exception to the rule. Bloody love that film. Other than that I'd agree with the Broderick is shit point of view. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dont_do_it_doug. Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 This is impossible to do, I've got loads more still Yep, that's always the issue with these sort of lists. I have a standout favourite, but many, many 9/10 movies that are on a par. Also, I'm watching so many "new" films all the time that are capturing my imagination in ways it has never been captured before that it's almost impossible to quantify what is "best". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo985 Posted October 13, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted October 13, 2014 That's why I always distinguish between "best" and "favourite" My list of the top 10 "best" films would bear little resemblance to my favourites. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched Gone girl and Kill The Messenger yesterday, Latter starts off very good will watch the end later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodgyknees Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 In no particular order: Goodfellas Die Hard Black Hawk Down Tomorrow Never Dies Goldeneye The Great Escape LoTR: Return of the King Saving Private Ryan Godzilla (the 1998 American version - don't hate) Star Wars Episode III I've probably forgotten some though. Can you please remove Godzilla. I was going to commend you on your taste, but I just can't bring myself to do it while that's there. Do you know what... I like that film too.. It isn't perfect but it is just a lot of fun! I also love Cloverfield, another really cool monster movie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Here is my Top 10 list of movies that will probably appear in a lot of other people's favourite film list, but that I never really liked: Godfather Rugeley's porn film #1 Miller's Crossing Tree of Life Rolf Harris: Can you guess where it is yet? Debbie Does Dallas Lost in Translation Babel Titty Titty Bang Bang Princess Bride Interesting selection. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I think something along the lines of Flight of the Navigator Toy Story Trois Couleurs Bleu All About Lily Chou Chou Das Boot Pierrot le Fou Leon Repulsion Code Unknown Lawn Dogs Top 10 female directed movies sponsored by CED Big Point Break Clueless Boys Don't Cry American Psycho A Ma Souer Monster Fish Tank Ratcatcher The Virgin Suicides 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, completely agreed. While Avengers may be my favourite film ever, it's not as good in an acting/direct/script sense as many films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
