Not saying they're the best, but for whatever reason I listed these as my top 10 favorites for whenever people asked me i guess

I don't think theyre in any particular order so I am just listing them out:

Forrest Gump

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Terminator 2: Judgment Day

Saving Private Ryan

The Good, The Bad and the Ugly

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

The Outsiders (also my favorite book since I was a kid and a massively start-studded cast)

Risky Business

Dark Knight

The Last of the Mohicans
--------------------------------------------------

So how did I do? Is it respectable? It's hard to make a list of your favorites. There would be a lot of honorable mentions if I had the time.

ETA: Seems like people are putting their top 10's in the replies so feel free to do that, i would be interested to see what people say are their favorites

It seems like a good list from 1999.

Can't argue if they're your favorites though.

That isn't a bad list. Saving Private Ryan, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, and The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly would be on my top ten list.

Other than Terminator 2, it's a pretty solid list.

My top 10 is probably pretty blah too, so don't feel bad.

Star Wars 4-6
Outlaw Josey Wales
Unforgiven
The Good, The Bad and the Ugly
Pulp Fiction
The Count of Monte Cristo



That isn't ten though. But that's my standard list when someone asks my favorites. Which never really happens.

Hard to tell a person what should be his favorite movies.

Of the ten, TG,tB,atU (yes that's how I abbreviated it and yes it took me longer to do that than it would have had I just typed it out right, anywho), would be my favorite. I don't think you have any trash on the list. Risky Business being my least favorite and The Dark Knight and T2 rounding out my top three from your list. Watch you some more Pre-70's movies and get back with us.
