Favorite list

Because blogs are basically narcissistic and self indulgent by nature of their very existence, herewith I present to you the five best movies ever seen by MY eyes. I'm not a critic (although I have written six or seven screenplays which really means nothing but I wanted to mention it) but I am narcissistic and self indulgent and this is my blog so my opinion is the only one that matters.

#5: Aliens.

#4: Big Trouble in Little China

#3: Forrest Gump

#2: The Empire Strikes Back

#1: The Natural

Are there technically better or more popular movies out there? Of course there are. But these are my five favorites, in order.

No controversy here. If I had made a top ten list, some of the other films mentioned would make the cut.

Having some time to steep, I wonder how close Vision Quest, Hawk the Slayer, Ninja III The Domination, & Remo Williams came to the top 5.

Great pics by all. I'd go for the Good the Bad and The Ugly for Eastwood Films..solely for the sound clip. And I would add Braveheart to the list. Forrest Gump is probably #1 for me.

All good choices, but I would say its hard to believe that greatest movie of all time isn't entitled 'Kill and Kill Again'. Perhaps becuase it's technically considered a foreign film I imagine this pushed it back to #6. Its worthy to note that it is not only the greatest sequel to a South African/American action film EVER, it was also the first film to use BULLET-TIME. Way ahead of its time.

Pardon me but I would like to suggest everyone consider The 13th Warrior, Jurrasic Park, and Rob Roy. Is that a Crouching Tiger in your pocket are you just hapy to see me? I mean, woah, we gotta make a long list to get the good ones in. I'm partial to Kenneth Branagh's Henry V, but I may be part of a very small audience there. Excalibur. I say again, Excalibur.
