Best Movies in History

Thanks guys for all the comments on the last article, it was really interesting and helpful to see your opinions and ideas and yes, I will be looking at some more western schools now haha
In this article I want to see what everyone's favorite movie or movies are. It seems like a pretty straightforward question, so I'll just jump straight into some of mine (:
(Once again, no particular order except for the first one)
1. Star Wars (Specific emphasis on episodes 3-6)
Star Wars is, by far, my favorite movie franchise of all time. For as long as I can remember, and before that even, I've been watching the original trilogy over and over again and went to see each episode in the prequel trilogy opening night over the last decade or so. I love all of the movies and have gotten so deep into the expanded universe it is scary haha.
2. The Shawshank Redemption
Yepp, dat prison movie with Morgan Freeman in it haha. This one happens to be my best friend's favorite movie of all time and I only saw it within the last year. Despite this though I have probably watched it at least 10-15 times and loved every moment of Andy and Red's story.
3. Resident Evil
My love for Resident Evil stems from my love for the games (particularly RE4
😃). So when these movies started coming out I immediately jumped on them. Now, of course I've realized they don't line up to the game's storyline very well, but they are the kind of action packed zombie films I expect from this great franchise.
4. The Blind Side
Not gonna lie, this movie has made me cry multiple times. This movie to me is just one of those sweet classics that come along every now and then and I find myself watching it almost every time I see it on T.V. It also happens to include my favorite poem of all time "The Charge of the Light Brigade" by Alfred Lord Tennyson, so that's a plus too.
5. Aliens and Predator series
Another pair of series that I've been watching since I was young, it was a rare week when one of these movies wasn't played in the Pinkerton household. While I can't honestly say I followed the whole storyline of the Alien series, I loved the movies, greatly enjoyed every aspect of the Predator series, and loved that they were brought together. I mean talk about ultimate hunter vs. hunted situation.
6. The Matrix trilogy
Need I say more? I can't think of a single person I know who does not love the original Matrix. The whole idea of all of humanity living in a computerized world controlled by rogue machines is incredibly interesting to me. Add in the human resistance and Neo, the Chosen One, and you have quite an epic sci-fi action story.
I know there are probably dozens of movies that I have left out of this list, so feel free to remind me of them in the comments!

Dr. Strangelove

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
Fight Club
The Shawshank Redemption
THX1138
Sin City
In Bruges
Se7en
Everything is Illuminated
Pulp Fiction
Office Space
The Hangover
Lost in Translation
Trainspotting
Inglourious Basterds
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
Snatch
Gladiator
Memento
Attack the Block gets my vote for my most recent favorite. But certainly not one of the "Best Movie(s) in History"
That seems like an interesting movie, it reminds me of Behind Enemy Lines. Obviously not from the American point of view though and much grittier sounding
Loving your list there Cash (:
harry potter...
Have to add... Silence of the Lambs, and.. The Godfather..to these lists... and wont even go into old classics that you kids have never even heard of 🙂
Good choice heysenberg and Devin go right ahead haha I haven't seen The Godfather movies in so long but I loved them (: and you may be surprised!
Time Bandits~~~~Monty Python
DK is right, noone cares for the classics ... exorcist... hair... iwo jimma... and many many others 🙂
best holywood film I saw.... Fear and Loathing, although if you ask me, the movie is strange compared to the books.... its all twisted, not in the "correct" order... still , Depp made it a watchable piece of cinema 😃
imdb.com
The Usual Suspects
no Pee Wee Herman's big adventure?
What kind of movie list is this?
Kung Fu Hustle 😛
Anything directed by Christopher Nolan.
best movie EVER:
Matrix
yip man 1+2, fearless, fist of legends, blues brothers xD
True Grit (original)
The Good, The Bad and the Ugly
Blazing Saddles
Alien (every single one of them)
Actually, I could write a very long list of great movies.
My all time favorite movie is There Will Be Blood, but that's primarily because of Daniel Day Lewis' excellent performance in that film. The best comedy I have seen would have to be Airplane!, but I also like the Edgar Wright/Simon Pegg films - Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. Donnie Darko is a really good film too, nice and full of mindf*ck.
HOW ON EARTH DID I FORGET LORD OF THE RINGS!!! AHHHH
