    Forrest Gump and Apollo 13 would be mine. They have my two favourite actors (Tom Hanks and Gary Sinise) in them. Once I heard Lieeeeeeeeutenant Daaaaaan ( :D ) was going to be on the newest CSI I was so excited.

    My favourite recent movie is Ladder 49...Joaquin Phoenix is one of the best actors I've ever seen.

    Hmmm... favorite movie. Of all time? I have so many favorite movies it's hard to pick. Probably 'Along Came Polly' at the moment. But it might change later. Who knows?

    I have a three way tie between Empire Records, The Nightmare Before Christmas and SWAT. Then there are the X-Men movies and Spider man, I could go on, but I'll stop. :p

    The Mummy, hands down, best movie EVER!

    Grease and Spaceballs are close contenders, however....

    Believe it or not, I can quote whole scenes from Spaceballs..

    However, it's a toughie for my fav flick...I really like Hitchcock's Psycho, but I'm a huge Hitchcock fan, so mostly any of his movies, except North By Northwest.

    As for non-Hitchcock movies, I like anything Mel Brooks, Airplane, Cooler, Paycheck, etc. The list goes on... :)

    A couple off the top of my head:

    1. Notorious with luminaries Cary Grant & Ingrid Bergman. Everytime I see this movie my heart just zings and zangs. Whatever that means.

    2. Bridget Jones's Diary. Colin Firth, Gawwwwwd!

    hands down, it has to be; "Fight club"! i know every line and can recreate every scene to perfect detail. :D

    other favourites:
    -"Snatch"
    -all "Monty Pythons"
    -the original "Star wars"
    -"Fear and loathing in Las Vegas" (Benicio del Toro and Johnny Depp together, canĀ“t get any better)

    ...ou, and i like "Black hawk down" because i find the setting (Mogadishu city) fascinating.

    Hee, at the moment it's the Phantom of the Opera. It's so darned sad! :( But of course it will change when I see another sadder movie. It has knocked Grease off No.1 for the best musical though.

    But my favorite ever, is Shawshank Redemption and The color Purple and some of other movies too.
