a very generic thread... talk about all your favorite movies!!!
me-
Gladiator - one of the best stories ever told with some of the most amazing special effects, action sequences and cinematography to make it an art film, adventure story and an action flick all at the same time! i love genre crossovers
Castle in the Sky - the best animated film i have ever seen and will be very hard to surpass. the pace was about as good as it gets with movies and the animation was ahead of its time (it came out in the late 80's but the animation quality is so good you might have thought it was released just last week!). most of all, the characters! the heroes were extremely likable and the villains were hated, but in a good way! excellent writing, animation, music, pace... everything! i dont see how any movie could be better!
The Ghost and the Darkness - im really sad by how few people have never even heard of this awesome 90's adventure story based on actual historical events in the late 1800's in Africa about two brother lions and the building of a railroad bridge. the action was superb and the cinematography was to die for (shot on site in Tsavo, Africa!). tons of action with great characters you were rooting on until the very end! this is a TLK forum... and this is a lions movie... it totally fits!!!
Power of One - i really could never figure out why i liked this movie... i think perhaps it was because it was so many genres mixed in one and had a very unique feel to it. it was well-written and the ending was very good and fit the film perfectly. on the outside, i never thought id like it, but i did, and i liked it a whole lot.
Fluke - its a dog movie XD when i was a kid, i loved dog movies, but this one stands out against them all with a sad yet amazing story that definitely doesnt get the praise it deserves. the idea was unique and it was carried out really well. definitely one that sticks out in my mind as a good film.
post your favorites and why!
