I know there was an older thread for this but Google and the search function have failed me.
So with that in mind what are everyone's current top 10's (and why).
Here are mine:
10. Hot Fuzz: Perhaps it's because I'm not such a big Zombie nut but I prefer this film to Shaun. I also suspect a lot of it has to do with the fact that it's set in Gloucestershire and filmed in Wells making it the only "local" film I can think of.
9. Lost in Translation: this was the film that truly opened my eyes to what cinema was truly capable of and I love it to this day,
8. The Empire Strikes Back: the best of the Star Wars films, need I say more.
7.Commado: What can I say, for me it's the perfect 80's action flick. Sure I know there are better ones but I can't help loving it.
6. The Incredibles: Over time I have come to the decision that this is the best Superhero movie ever made, Pixar and Brad Bird bought their A game here.
5. Inception: I don't think this should come as any surprise and I'll go out on a limb and say it's one of the best movies ever made.
4. Jaws: The first of three Spielberg’s on this list. There is nothing to hate about this movie it's just damn perfect.
3. Jurassic Park: Ranking this above Jaws almost seems wrong but despite it's flaws this flick holds firm as a film I can watch and enjoy anytime.
2. Raiders of the Lost Ark the best adventure movie ever made.
1. Ghostbusters: I seriously doubt this will ever fall out of favor with me, It's been a part of my life since I was 8 years old.
So this time no Spiderman or LOTR but over all I'd say it reflects both my taste in movies and me as a person pretty well.
Over to you guys, what are yours and why?
