Nice one, cheers! You know I'd never even looked online I've just never seen it in the shops. Thanks for that!

I've just had a quick look through my DVD collection and there's some in there that I can't believe I didn't mention in my first post! It's real hard for me to pick out one or even a few favourites - anyones favourite films are going to be ones that they've watched many, many times and could continue to watch again and again without ever getting bored of them . I now realise that for me there's quite a few that fit the bill!

Again, in no particular order:

Die Hard
Braveheart
Blazing Saddles
Happy Gilmore
Fallen
The original Star Wars trilogy
All the Indiana Jones movies
All the Jurassic Park movies
Full Metal Jacket
Forrest Gump
Leon
Plains Trains And Automobiles
Snatch
Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
The Shawshank Redemption
Seven
Speed
Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
Pulp Fiction
Reservoir Dogs
The Silence Of The Lambs
Tremors
Unforgiven
Unbreakable
Toy Story 1 + 2
Waynes World
The Thing (the remake)
Cape Fear (again the remake although the original is pretty good)

I could go on but I'd be here all day!

And I guess Wallace and Grommit, if you count the three shorts as one film.

[McBain]

:banghead:

Can't believe I left out Blade Runner from my list.....my all time favourite sci-fi film.

[kenrug]

The Devil’s Advocate. I see myself as a morally nefarious agent amongst those about me. So it kinda fits that way.

Sin is what I do. Doing it better than others is just another form of excellence. :D
