miamisammy29 Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 1. The Godfather (The Ultimate in cinematic history) 2. The Godfather, Part II (The sequel's never quite as good as the original. 3. The Deer Hunter (Christopher Walken was even hilarious in this one!) 4. Forrest Gump ("You'd better tuck in that lip, boy, before you get it caught on a tripwire.") 5. Titanic ("Rose, you FAT B*TCH! Can't you move over just a TINY bit, so I can sit on that damn raft, too?!) 6. The Departed ("Something just came off the roof! I think it was Emilio Estevez!") 7. Gone With The Wind ("You know what, Scarlett?! I couldn't give two sh*ts about you OR your damn plantation!" 8. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (The Big Indian rules, man!) 9. The French Connection (Popeye and Bluto are fantastic in this one!) 10. The Silence of the Lambs ("It puts the lotion on its skin, or else it has to see me naked again." You have to admit - that old, ugly dude hiding the candy like that - that was pretty f***in' scary!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuzikTyme Posted February 19, 2010 Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 1. Braveheart '95 " I'm so afraid. Lord, give me the strength to die well." 2. Deerhunter '78 "Nicky, it's the only way. I'll pick the moment. The game goes until I move. When I start shootin', go for the nearest guard, get his gun and zap the f...er!" 3. Forrest Gump '94 "Dear God, make me a bird. So I could fly far. Far far away from here." 4. Schindler's List '93 "We give you a Jewish girl at five marks a day, Oskar. You should kiss us, not them. God forbid you ever get a real taste for Jewish skirt, there's no future in it. They don't have a future. That's not just good old fashioned Jew hating talk. It's policy now." 5. Unforgiven '92 "That's right. I've killed women and children. I've killed just about everything that walks or crawled at one time or another. And I'm here to kill you, Little Bill, for what you did to Ned." 6. Midnight Cowboy '79 "You want the word on that brother-and-sister act, Hansel's a fag and Gretel's got the hots for herself, so who cares, right? Load up on the salami." 7. Rocky '76 "Stay in school and use your brain. Be a doctor, be a lawyer, carry a leather briefcase. Forget about sports as a profession. Sports make ya grunt and smell. See, be a thinker, not a stinker." 8. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest '75 " The funny thing is that the person that he's the closest to is the one he dislikes the most...That's you, Mildred!" 9. Dances with Wolves '90 "I was just thinking that of all the trails in this life there is one that matters most. It is the trail of a true human being. I think you are on this trail and it is good to see!" 10. Driving Miss Daisey '89 "Oh, Miss Daisy, yesterday, while you was out visitin', I went and ate a can of your salmon. Now, I know you said eat the left-over pork chops, but they was kinda stiff. So, I stopped at the Piggly Wiggly and got you another can. You want me just to go on and put it in the cupboard?" I'm surprised that out of such a great list Cool-hand Luke, Shawshank Redemption or Good Fellas wasn't mentioned! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted February 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 I'm surprised that out of such a great list Cool-hand Luke, Shawshank Redemption or Good Fellas wasn't mentioned!

CanAm Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 1. Amadeus - Tom Hulce and F. Murray Abraham were brilliant. 2. The French Connection 3. The Sound Of Music - a rather predictable story, but fabulous music, cinematography and a young, beautiful Julie Andrews. 4. The Sting - almost as good a pairing as Butch and Sundance. 5. Rocky - Stallone should have quit after this one. 6. Schindler's List 7. Casablanca - not Bogart's best and somewhat overrated IMO, but a great film nonetheless. 8. Braveheart - historical inaccuracies abound (among others, William Wallace was about 6'8" and the Scots of the 13th century did not wear blue face paint), but a rollicking good yarn nonetheless. 9. Out Of Africa - beautiful music and gorgeous scenery. 10. All Quiet On The Western Front. Ironically, none of these movies would make my list of top 25 movies of all time.
