I usually am a fan of Tom Hanks but this movie looks stupid. Never heard of it before.

If the TV channel is getting changed and those are showing on ANY channel then it stays on that channel, and I hate marathons.

I thought that was a great movie! And "Man on the moon".
Jim Carrey is under rated as a serious actor. He could do so much more than the goof ball stuff he usually does.

[VADER]

all Star Wars (duh)

Ferris Buellers Day Off

Breakfast Club

The Green Mile

Top Gun

Indiana Jones (all)

My favorite Clint westerns are The Outlaw Josey Wales and A Mule for Sister Sara. Pale Rider's pretty good, too. My favorite westerns overall are Rio Bravo (John Wayne, Dean Martin, Walter Brennan, Ricky Nelson, stupid Angie Dickinson who nearly goobs up the whole movie) and Support Your Local Sheriff (James Garner, Walter Brennan, Bruce Dern, Harry Morgan, Jack Elam).

Just watched Outlaw Josey Wales again, it's creeping up my favorites list. High Noon is as well.

[PUBBY]

Rather than try and pull out the top five movies, I went through and looked at the movies folks have selected and one thing comes to mind ... the dearth of black and white movies.

For instance, among the truly great black and white movies out there - Casablanca and Citizen Kane are not mentioned even once. Other black and white movies of tremendous merit that have not been mentioned in this listing once include Dr. Strangelove, The Treasure of Seirra Madre, Miracle of 34th Street, The Maltese Falcon, On the Waterfront, to Kill a Mockingbird, the last picture show and even Chaplin's The Great Dictator. That's not even considering the original Dracula and Frankenstein movies (or for another great black and white modern movie - Young Frankenstein

There were, however, five black and white movies mentioned.

Mei Lan mentioned:
To Have and Have Not (Bogart, Bacall - her first, Walter Brennan, Hoagy Carmichael)

A Night at the Opera (1938 Marx Brothers)

And stercus tauri

Inherit the Wind.
It’s a Wonderful Life
12 Angry Men

I don't recall the movie "to have or have not" ... I probably have seen it before ... but the remainder are also great monochromatic films. Indeed, one could easily come up with a list of only black and white films that rank as favorites and have a grand time viewing and reviewing them.

And while there were some really good and funny colorific movies mentioned - I enjoyed movies like Ferris Bueler and Overboard - I didn't recall seeing Parenthood, Lawrence of Arabia, In the heat of the Night, Patton, Cabaret, Sophie Choice, American Graffiti, The Sting, Chinatown, Network, Apocalpse Now, the Big Chill, Right Stuff and Tender Mercies, Out of Africa, Ghandi, Erin Brockovich, traffic, A few Good men ... just to name a few good movies.

I'm not critical of the choices ... there are just so many good ones.

High Noon is one of the best of the best of the best. AWESOME movie!!! And while not in the same category of excellence, it reminds me of another good western - Bad Day at Black Rock.
