Rear Window I do indeed think is fantastic. That film can hold my interest just as well now as it did when I first saw it when I was 13 or so.

The Godfather I think is great but I just only very recently saw it. I think so many years of hearing "this is the greatest film in the history of cinema" bugged me.

Not that you or anyone else asked but i\'m gonna tell you anyways! My personal favourite is 2001: A Space Odyssey. I think the death of Hal is one of the best murder scenes on film. I know some people think 2001 is a big snore fest but to me its excellent.

Fuck, I hate you.

I would almost say \'The Godfather\', but you know, I think my all time favorite would have to be \'Taxi Driver\'.  I can\'t get enough of that film.

And I don\'t bash everything. For example, I loved Iron Man. I love Shaun of the Dead. I love Rachet and Clank. It\'s just more fun to complain and watch everyone complain that I\'m complaining..You know, that never ending circle. It amuses me to a great degree.

Taxi Driver is one of those movies i\'ve heard about from birth and have never actually watched yet. Same was with the case of The Godfather, only finally saw that maybe a year ago.

I\'m a pretty huge fan Stanley Kubrick in general. The Shining, Clockwork Orange, Barry Lyndon, 2001, Full Metal Jacket, Spartacus, Dr Strangelove and many others. So many of his films i\'ve enjoyed seeing the first time and still hold my attention just as strongly upon repeat viewings.

Oooh, I recently watched 2001 in 70mm on one of the biggest screens in Scandinavia. It was fap-worthy. Although it was quite late in the night and I admit to dozing off a few times. I blame the late hour. :)

same here only opposite with those two movies. Theres a lot of movies like that that i should see, but i\'d really have to go out of my way to see them, and actually watch them. I\'ve had Raging Bull on my dvr for months and i\'ve never gotten around to watching it. I\'ve started it a few times but its usually at 1 in the morning and i fall asleep.

and im not decisive enough to list something as \'the best movie.\' havent seen enough to give me any credibility

Barry Lyndon is a movie only a snobby film student would like. I was bored to tears. Paths of Glory is one of his best and everyone should see it
