For quite a while that was #1 for me too. I still like it an awful lot but I wouldn't even rank my favorite Peter O'Toole movie now. That goes to my second favorite film of all time The Stunt Man. I've got about 250 movies I could pick number 3 depending on how I feel on a particular day but Once Upon a Time in the West and The Stunt Man have been one and two for a good twenty years now for me.

I have a 1A and 1B. 1A is The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. 1B is The Patriot.

Last of the Mohicans and The Prestige are 1a/1b with No Country for Old Men right there.

Ocean's 11 is the movie i love most that entertains me the most.

I can pick it up at any point and continue watching it.

It's my comfort show.

It’s either Raiders of the Lost Ark or The Dark Knight for me.
I’ll go with Raiders.
IMO it’s the perfect movie that has a little bit of everything in it.

My Favorite Year




Highly underrated movie. Peter O'Toole was awesome in it.

Damn, I'm getting roasted for loving Natural Born Killers.

But y'all's responses are all hitting in my Top 20.


ETA: This is all subjective. No one is right or wrong. This is about FUN. It's that movie that you just LOVE. Critical acclamations be damned.

BTW....Ghostbusters is #2.

My favorite QT films. He just said, "frick it." and made something that he would like.

By my count, that is 3 Peter O'Toole films mentioned in this thread: Lawrence of Arabia, The Stunt Man, and My Favorite Year. This thread is delivering some top notch suggestions for a re-watch.
