Channel 4 are doing a 100 greatest movies programme this saturday.
What do you reckon'll be numero uno?
Id be willing to bet on Star Wars : A New Hope at #1 followed by Gladiator at #2 then Ben Hur @ #3.

What does every one else think?

Although I don't get channel 4, (I'm an American! HA! :wink: ) I can tell you right now that the #1 movie with either be Casablanca or Citizen Kane. Those two are considered the best films of all time.

IMHO, fat chance for star wars or the matrix.  I would guess something along the lines of what Seph 3d said; the classics.  If it was comedy, I would hope for Some Like it Hot.  But otherwise, I would bet on Citizen Kane.
 
It may well be starwars up there somewhere since its on the front cover of the radio times with the caption 'Is this the best film ever?'
 
hehe yeah. star wars is a classic. youre right about the matrix though. theyr gonna show it on tv in a week or so, meaning it will be officially dead.
 
My Top Ten would be:

10) Road Trip
9) Monty Python: The Holy Grail
:cool: Broken Arrow
7) Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace
6) James Bond : You Only Live Twice
5) Terminator 2
4) The Rock
3) Star Wars Episode 6: Return of The Jedi
2) Star Wars Episode 4: A New Hope
1) Star Wars Episode 5: The Empire Strikes Back
 
Oh my...


Broken arrow is possibly THE worst film I have ever seen. Well, with the exception of "Delta Force: Ebola Threat" (or something like that).

I mean, even the horrible Mission Impossible 2 is better that Broken Arrow...
 
Was that the one with John Travolta and Christian Slater?
If it was then its absoulutley sh*te.

P.S Love the new design Qhimm ! .... its better than the 3DStream one IMHO.

P.P.S The Matrix is coming on T.W soon, WICKED, know when exactly.....?
 
the worst movie ive ever seen is mimic or event horizon. both sucked horribly.
 
If we are talking recent, here would be my choices:
10)
9)
:cool:
7)
6)
5)  Probably 'American Beauty', but I haven't seen it.  
4)  Harry Potter :naughty:  I've seen it twice already!  (Its not as good the second time.)
3)  Almost Famous
2)  Shakespeare in Love
1)  Chocolate
I HOPE Amélie will make this list... I must go and find out.

Crap... I forgot...  I hate most of the movies I see.  Well, screw top ten.

My worst movies of all time:
5)  Pokémon I, II, and III.  (I went to all three just to laugh at them!)
4)  The Emperor's New Groove
3)  Raising Arizona
2)  Cats and Dogs (I refuse to speak of this experience.)
1)  Fall of the House of Usher

I'm sure there are many which are worse, but either I am lucky enough not to have seen them, or I have forgotten them is a fit of good luck.

in dont think of childrens movies as being bad. They're just a different genre that I dont particularly enjoy. Most of them are exellent for the type that they are.
 
My Top 10 Fave Movie list:

10: Disney's Tarzan
9: Disney's A Bug's Life
8: Jurrasic Park 2
7: Akira
6: Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone
5: Jurrasic Park 3
4: Prefect Blue
3: Jurrasic Park
2: Shrek
1: Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within (I don't care WHAT you thought of it!)

My 7 most Hated films:

7: Disney's Atlantis (A lot of potential, but it didn't use it!)
6: Disney's The Emperor's New Groove
5: Apocalypse Now (Too damn long! Otherwise it's a good film.)
4: Ladyhawke
3: Lily C.A.T.
2: Scary Movie
1: Event Horizon (Although Scary Movie is REALLY close!)

I dont have any list. I just have movies that i like. But i dont remember them :smile: so ill only write my comments to movies listed before me:

Matrix - really good. Seen it about 14 times, maybe more, Scary Movie - good, but i didnt like some parts; Pulp fiction - cool; All Aliens are great. Monty python's movies, movies with Leslie Nielson.
American Beauty was interesting too. Aso aso ... there are many great movies ...
 
I think Lord of the Rings will be number one for me when it comes out. It looks fantastic, I can't wait!
