Top 10 Films

[vestanpance]

I've checked some through some old answers but most seem to point towards everyones favourite film but if you had to name your top ten films what would they be, to start the ball rolling mine are, in no particular order

Stand by Me
Life of Brian
Sin City
Platoon
Back to the Future (1,2,+3, taking them as 1)
The Goonies
The Inside Man (If you haven't seen it, it is superb)
The Butterfly Effect (I know Ashton Kutcher is in it but it's still very original, unless you saw Donnie Darko first which I didn't)
The Breakast Club
Being John Malkovich

From compiling this list I've realised that I could have added at least 30 more classics but that'll take to long so I'll leave it at that.

Roughly chron order. I couldn't possibly do them in order of preference:

Rear Window
12 Angry Men
The Hill
Dr Strangelove
2001
Quatermass & The Pit
The Taking of Pelham 123
Jaws
Close Encounters
This Is Spinal Tap
Withnail & I
The Double Life of Veronique
A Short Film About Killing
The Village

V interesting lists. Some great films mentioned. I have to admit I found it hilarious that someone had Cocktail on theirs, but I'm not taking the p*ss - good on you, it's what these lists are for.

No particular order:

-Fight Club
-Anchorman
-Falling Down
-Back to the Future (part 1)
-Butterfly Effect
-Napoleon Dynamite
-Good Will Hunting
-The Fast & The Furious
-Star Wars (original trilogy)
-Thumbsucker

It's too hard to choose just 10 so I want two bonus choices:

-Amelie
-Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
