Top 30 Favorite Films Part 1

James, I am currently reading the novel "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest" and it is amazing, I would highly recommend that you read it if you heven't yet.

I did not know how many movies are based on older movies or books. I have learnt a lor thanks James I will see the complete top 30!

My top 30 is kinda like this, but....stranger choices.

I love how you go from Dr. Lao to Scarface...I was at the video store and checked out Mary Poppins and Silence of the Lambs and the clerk teased me that no one gets those together :)

I LOVE JURASSIC PARK!

Thankyou,thankyou,thankyou............I've been looking for the film that had that scene with the fortune teller for years! I saw it on tv as a boy and it's always stayed with me but I didn't know the film's name.The seven faces of Dr Lao,i'll have to buy it now! I just watched the scene again on youtube-what an amazing piece of writing and acting, perfectly paced, a fantastic and darkly humourous scene!
I agree with much of your top 30 as it's almost exactly the same as mine which is very strange as I normally hate internet posted film lists. I would add 2001,Return to Oz,Valley of the Gwangi and (a modern minor classic-Sideways)to your list but overall,it's a good one,varied and interesting. Love your site.
Cheers,Badger from London

i havent watched it yet, but i have to say i enjoy listening to your comments, you sure do make a lot of sense when you make those top tens. even without seeing them i understand why they would be in that spot. keep making these, theyre fun to watch

I love jurassic parck and mostly the first one.

My favorite films have to be the Tarentino flicks. My favorite of them has to be Resevior dogs, but kill bill really got to me as i related to its grindhouse style, it also has a great soundtrack.

Thanks for uploading. This gives us such a picture into your influences. Of course, everyone's list would be different, especially mine. That's what makes this so cool, to see what you prefer. Definitely a few I need to watch or re-watch. Thanks again for all the work you do to entertain us denizens!

Hah, nice opening shot using Clash of the Titans. Maybe we remember it fondly since we were kids, but recently (before the remake came out) critics were panning it as campy or worse.

Last Crusade is my favorite from that series as well. And my cousin and I had a blast recreating the "Dad! What!" scene.

Was that last shot a cameo by Alfred Hitchcock in his movie?

I love the first two jurassic park films but III well.......I HATE IT most of u disagree with me but i'm sorry they killed T-REX one of my fav dinos especially the velociraptor but the velociraptors are the only dinos thats made it through all three jurassic park films and thats the only reason i watch part III is because of the raptors and news that jurassic park IV is coming out even though there has been no knews of it but fingers crossed they do jurassic park IV but this time DON'T KILL T-REX please t-rex is awesome and i love him don't kill him

Thanks so much, Mike - I am just getting to watch these now. MAAAN, I have a lot of catching up to do...damn sheltered childhood.

The great escape is long but so funny if someone never watch it please try and you don't disappointed

(my english is not good so if you don't understand my comment then i'm sorry.)

DINOSAURS ARE AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE SHIT!!!!

When I was in middle school, the grades were all split into three houses per grade. In 6th grade, I was an Argonaut (as opposed to a Voyager or a Navigator). On the second day of school, all the teachers of the different subjects for the Argonaut house brought all the Argonaut kids into the Auditorium, and we watched Jason and the Argonauts. Before the movie started, we were told "This is to show you all what you represent. You are all Argonauts, and you are all on a journey of your own." It's one thing I've never forgotten, and I hope I never do. I knew the film would be on the list, and I just had to share this story when I came across it. Jason and the Argonauts means a lot to me, too. =3

Also, looks like The Great Escape might have been the inspiration for Hogan's Heroes, but that just might be my opinion.

awesome video.. i loved batman and great escape.

Totally Awesome i haven't watched the whole thing, but the song in the beginning is one of my favorite movie songs of all time: The Ecstasy of Gold, from the Good, The Bad and the Ugly, my favorite movie of all time.

Awesome!

You know when else dinosaurs were cool? Always.
Love the Batman movie soundtrack, but all in all, I would say the animated series had the better score. That could be partly thanks to having more characters to work with, but they did them just right.
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that Jack Nicholson is a really, really good actor and he does insane and fake-insane like nobody else.

you should definitely read the novel for one flew over the cuckoo's nest. it differs from the movie a lot, but that is expected with any movie based on a book. the characters in the movie however match the characters in the book perfectly. you would love the novel and it is a quick read because of all the stuff going on!

Oh, yea .. Batman. I loved it as a kid. Only problem was that I had only german dubbed version, but that didn't stop me from totally loving it. There wasn't much necessary talking anyway so it didn't matter. Action, mood, music and of course brilliant Keaton as Batman/Wayne... I appreciated all of that as 5-6 years old. I even had a costume :) and little model of batmobile which I consider the best one of all. It's stylish, dark and still looks modern even today.

Too bad that there is no Chaplin movie(s) in this top 30. But it's okey, choices are difficulte...

NICE VIDEO WATCHEN PART 1 AND 2 NEXT

These were so awesome to watch. Thanks for uploading these! :D
