Forums - General Discussion - What one movie would you recommend?

tastyshovelware on 11 February 2008

Similar to the "worst movie" thread. However, if I were to ask people to post their favorite movie, they would throw out a ton of answers and say "I couldn't pick just one."


So, just recommend one movie you feel strongly about. It doesn't need to be your #1 favorite. It can be domestic, foreign, documentary, or animation. Also, try to pick a less common film. It doesn't need to be indy or tiny or anything. It's just everyone knows about 'Titanic,' or whatever, so there's no real need to plug it.

My pick is 'paris, texas.' One of the greatest independent character studies I've ever seen. It's long but sincere and truly engaging.

I shall go with Indies... Garden State, Half Nelson, Across the Universe (not really indie, but it was never wide-released, Run Lola Run, Pretty Persuasion)

and almost all movies made by Ghibli Studio.

can't think of anything now

 

favourite now? hmmm, Howl's moving Castle.

Watch The Assasination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. Brilliant, best movie I've seen recently.

Good to see this site is still going

There's no one film I'd recommend, so I'll just pick a good one: Labyrinth.



Parokki on 11 February 2008

I heartily recommend Hot Fuzz. It's a film about well uh... just see the trailer. It's the funniest thing ever, from the guys who did Shaun of the Dead (be sure to watch this one too!), and on top of all it's from Europe! Too damn many Yank films running around these days...

If you're taking anti-recommendations, then I'd advise you to stay the heck away from any Saw movie after the first. They have a bad case of sequel-AIDS.
