A sensitive topic, I know, but lets give it a go and have some fun:

My Best movies ever:
1. Moulin Rouge imdb
2. The Matrix imdb
3. Cinema Paradiso imdb
4. Spirited Away imdb
5. Casablanca imdb
6. Life is Beautiful imdb
7. Forest Gump imdb
8. Fight Club imdb
9. Schindler's List imdb

My Worst movies ever (worst to least worse):
1. Con Games imdb
2. Dreamcatcher imdb
3. Charlie's Angels imdb
4. Any movie with Ben Affleck and/or Jennifer Lopez...

Movies worthy of an honourable mention:
1. Lord of the Rings (probably both)
2. Muriel's Wedding
3. Fargo
4. African Queen
5. Gladiator
6. As Good as it Gets
7. Being John Malkovich

This is a work in progress and I'm not sure that the order in either of the sections above are necessarily final.

Best: (or at least favorites)

1) 2001, a Space Odyssey
2) Forrest Gump
3) Apollo 13
4) City Slickers
5) Bill Mason's Waterwalker (Obscure, yet means a lot to me.)
6) The Shining

The worst?, eh! I don't dwell on that. Although the last Star Trek certainly qualifies.

I saw Water World the other night for the first time. Such a serious movie, so why all the goofy characters mixed in? The mad scientist from the Atoll was pure Disney!

And a pretty good hit rate of these available on Super 8. No wonder I think it's such a wonderful hobby.
