I don't do these lists very well but I can list a few of my all-time faves, in no particular order:

Serenity
X-Files: Fight the Future
Ghostbusters
The Innocents
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
LotR trilogy
Titanic (for the history more than the love story)
Tous les Matins du Monde
The Changeling
What's Eating Gilbert Grape?
Star Wars (the original, pre-remastered versions)

Now this is a fairly eclectic cross-mix of movies and there are a million more I could list. These are the flicks I come back to again and again. I know I am missing much but c'est la vie right?

STORYMARK


I assume you mean personal top 5, and not 5 best films ever. I mean, as a film lover I know that Citizen Kane and Casablanca are better movies than Highlander, but I still enjoy Highlander a lot more.

So, in no particular order, here's my top 5(ish):

The Empire Strikes Back
Highlander
Out of Sight
Aliens
Raiders of the Lost Arc
The Shawshank Redemption

Two movies came out within the last year that might eventually fall into that list, but they're still too new. I need a couple of years to process them to see how they hold up over time. These films being Serenity (natch) and Batman Begins.
