Favorite/least Favorite Movies Lol

Miniike · Post by **Miniike** » August 8th, 2014, 12:41 pm

Because people never make Q&As.

My favorite movie is The Remains of the Day. This is a perfect example of how to make a historical movie 101. It crafts interesting characters that conflict with each other well, and masterfully subtle performances from Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson create so many unspoken emotions that demand multiple watches to sift through. It also provides an interesting look into history provided by these characters. If I had to issue any complaints, it would be that some plot lines go nowhere, but because it's a Slice-of-life story I can forgive that.

Other favorites of mine include Sense and Sensibility and The Princess Bride for their scripts, Airplane! as a comedy and Skyfall and The Dark Knight as action. I also have to give obvious credit to Citizen Kane, which, while it's not my favorite movie, it's most certainty the best I've ever seen.

My least favorite movie is Master of Disguise. It's pretty much the only movie that physically pained me to continue watching.

EDIT: Added RT links because I'm pretentious.

kung pow: enter the fist, saint young men, wolf children ame and yuki, howls moving castle, the south park movie (sort of), despicable me (maybe), and pacific rim for favorites
i also liked this french movie where there was this girl who accidentally put her sister in a coma and she wanted to cure her and shes also indiana jones but theres also dinosaurs and shit. wikipedia says it's called the extraordinary adventures of adele blanc-sec.
foodfight and frozen for least favorites (seriously, i could fly a plane through the plotholes in frozen)

I agree with bubble on frozen. Nowhere near the godsend tumblr makes it out to be.

Not my least favourite, but it's not one I particularly enjoyed. Mainly due to the lack of any real narrative for the first half.

I'm fond of the Harry Potter movies, Chamber of Secrets in particular. I also really enjoyed Madagascar. I've also heard that Winnie the Pooh movie from a few years ago was pretty good, so I may have to watch that.

As for least favorite; 2012, no doubt about it. That movie sucked for so many reasons I'm gonna nees to use the power if YouTube to explain 'em all.

I love Watchmen, A Clockwork Orange, Inception, and Shutter Island (mostly for the ending).

For least favorites I would say BioDome.

Since making this thread, I have finally seen Monty Python and the Holy Grail, which I would put on par with Airplane! as a comedy (but I still slightly prefer Airplane!).

I haven't watched a lot of the "famous" movies, but out of what I've seen my favorites are Forrest Gump and Back to the Future (Part II).

My least favorite movie has to be Space Jam. The only good thing that came out of that movie was its theme song.

You know, I am awful, I don't have any major film that jumps out as my "favourite" per say. As a younger peep I know I liked Wall-E when it came out a year or two back. I saw Hugo when it came out and quite like that as well. Neither really stand as my an all time favourite film, but perhaps I am just not the type for that.. I don't know.

My least favourite film is also kind of odd. I remember turning off quite a few films, mainly comedies, that I realised didn't fit me well. However, none really stuck in my mind because of that.

Watched this movie last night. Blew my mind.

watched a documentary called Symbiopsychotaxiplasm a few days ago
it's kind of a documentary within a documentary, but reading about it would spoil it, ykno?

the director died about a week ago so it also has that hanging over it

it is an experimental film so you probably won't like it but it's really interesting all the same
if you like experimental stuff or documentaries or both, go ahead and watch it
the themes arent exactly sfw btw

So a pretentious arthouse experimental film?

Sounds awesome, I'm all there. I'll watch it sometime.
