out of all genres & you could only pick 5 as your top favorites... Which 5 films would you choose?

(It seriously took me about 25 minutes to narrow down these down because some are so close but here's what I came up with)

1) J.F.K. (1991)
2) The Birth of a Nation (1915)
3) Titanic (1997)
4) Dazed & Confused (1993)
5) A Time to Kill (1996)

1. Goodfellas
2. Saving Private Ryan
3. Dumb and Dumber
4. The Big Lebowski
5. Zero Dark Thirty

Odd choices, but I'm not a movie savant. I just like watching these over and over.

Here are mine from a few years ago.

quote:

Dumb and Dumber
The Lion King
The Prestige
Top Gun
Jurassic Park


Roughly still the same I would guess...most of them are favorites due to sentimental reasons. Though at any given time, a couple could be replaced by other favorites.

There's obviously a difference between movies that are your favorite vs the best movies of all time. Certain movies have been very impactful to me personally (whether in my childhood or otherwise), although I recognize that there are better movies out there. My top 5 movies of all time are:

1. Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring

The rest:

Blade
The Matrix
Batman (1989)
Rocky

Titanic is a great movie. I'm not judging you for having freaking Rocky 3 and Rocky 4 in your top 5 favorite movies of all time.

I'd venture to say any man that doesn't have Rocky IV in his top five is a homo.
