I really liked the Lord of the Rings trilogy but I also really liked the Matrix trilogy. Both have excellent plots, great actors and fantastic special effects. I find it hard to say which I like better.

fight club

The first Matrix was cool, the second was cool...the third wasnt nothin to special...

that said...my 2 favorites are Night Of The Living Dead (Romero rules!) and Dracula (Bela Lugosi is great)
..thats the originals of course...

I just read this thread, and omg, you're all cinematically incompetent.

Out of the Matrix Trilogy, only the first one was good, the other two were total crap. LOTR, whilst nice to see a cinematic adaption of the classic books was just not all that truthful to the novels.

Whomever mentioned Blow seemed to be the only one with a streak of uniqueness in him.

You're all way too much into Hollywood crap. Minority Report is about the most philosophical and deep that Hollywood gets with films. Actually, Requiem for a Dream is pretty meaningful in terms of Hollywood films, even though the Kronos Quartet killed that requiem for me.

The best director ever? Luc Besson. Watch Le Grande Bleu and you'll understand.

The best film ever though? Filantropica. Watch it.

old thread which i didn't see..

Like a lot of people i wouldn't be able to pick just one movie..
even if i tried to categorize them into different genres it would be impossible. One move i will never forget though would be.. City of Angels 

others i like were 'Hackers' 'Serendipity' 'Dogma' 'Kiss of the Dragon' 'Short Circit 1&2' .... and..

Mine are:
*The Matrix 1,2 & 3
*Fight club
*Second Hand Lions

me likes
the Lord of the Rings (first two, have no seen The Return of the Kings yet)(me likes the special edition extended version of the Fellowship of the Ring, still needs to get the Two Towers one)
The Italian Job
Ocean's 11
X-men 1.5 & 2
and theres more me can no think of at this point and time (and place, skewl)

Now and then! best girl movie ever made

The Passion of the Christ I think was the best movie ever!

The History of the World - Part One. It's an older movie, but still funny as hell.

Matrix would also get a vote from me, I personally liked the first the best. At that point, we didn't know the whole story, and had to guess a lot of it, which made it more fun for me.
