Date: February 12, 2007 03:07AM John Cusack reminds me of a movie I really love "Say Anything"
I think "Life is Beautiful" is at the top of my list also. Re: what is your favorite movie

Date: February 12, 2007 06:03AM John Cusack!?!?! It's Edward Norton, haha...
If you haven't watched Fight Club, go watch it now, then come back to this thread. Otherwise.... Yes, he is fighting himself, basically. The movie makes a lot more sense if you watch it twice. Re: what is your favorite movie

Date: February 13, 2007 11:16AM well thomas-u have to admit-edward norton and john cusack sort of look alike. i have seen the movie and no-the final scene thru me cause what i thought was really happening...agh! was not.i have and was depressed from watching it .then waht about "menmento"...agh! what the heck??i bought it (fight club)cause everyone was talking about it so much.then i gave it away right after i saw it cause of the ending.so was he schizophrenic?thanks taylor Re: what is your favorite movie

Date: February 13, 2007 07:56PM I haven't seen Memento so I can't comment on that movie, hehe...
I'm not really sure if Norton's character was schizo, or what you would call it. I think the importance behind the duality was that it happened because he wouldn't "step up to the plate" and become a better person... he was just another brick in the wall, so to speak.

Date: February 14, 2007 07:03PM Most of my movie picks would be of a fantasy or mystical theme (something out the realm):
Dark Crystal, just awesome Labyrinth, killer Big Fish The Island, one of my favorite newer movies Predator, "billy, get to the chopper!" Cartoons: The Secret of the Nimh, all-time favorite The Last Unicorn, growing up this would make my sister, brothers and I ball our heads off The Hobbit Why Vegan? Because I have the most love and admiration for all animals of the earth!!! a rawvegan hopeful, rawdev4life!!! Re: what is your favorite movie

Date: February 15, 2007 04:47AM Woody Allen- My husband can't stand him. Some of his movies I like. I just love "Annie Hall", but mainly because of Diane Keaton. Come to think of it, all his movies that I like have leading ladies that I love. Maybe it isn't him that I like, but his taste in women.
"Clockwork Orange" was so disturbing for me. It wasn't as disturbing as "Natural Born Killers." I had to turn that one off. Thomas- You should see "To Kill a Mockingbird" again. You can't judge a movie by a school viewing. One exception to that is when I saw "Days of Wine and Roses" in school and loved it. Re: what is your favorite movie

Date: February 15, 2007 06:04AM Great topic.
A few of my current faves are: Shakespeare in Love American Beauty The In-Laws (the old version, with Alan Arkin and Peter Falk, I still laugh hysterically after seeing it about a million times) Pride and Prejudice (the BBC version, a mini series with Jennifer Ehle) Re: what is your favorite movie

Date: February 15, 2007 11:45AM yeah-clockwork orange was disturbing to me too! I went on this quest to see movies from the 60's.so that was why i watched it.easy rider was another one i had to see.we saw "running with scizzors" last nite.that poor boy.i think the book may be better than the movie.

Date: February 17, 2007 04:57PM I really liked Fight Club. . . every time I see it, it becomes more of a comedy.
I watch The Elephant Man when I need a cry. I watch The Emperor's New Groove when I want to laugh. I've always liked Labyrinth. . . I think I know the words to every song and can recite most of the movie when I watch it. I guess I've seen it a lot. Re: what is your favorite movie

"I've always liked Labyrinth. . . I think I know the words to every song and can recite most of the movie when I watch it. I guess I've seen it a lot." Remember the ending? The ending of Labyrinth was/is sad........."by Sarah"........."if you need us".......................really sad!!!! Why Vegan?

Sarah did say that every now and then, for no reason at all, she would always need her Hoggle. Re: what is your favorite movie

Date: February 19, 2007 01:57AM Yes, I thought Fight Club was brilliant, but there were a few scenes that were over the top and too hard to watch. I don't like violence.
My favorites tend to be foreign: La Dolce Vita Un Coeur en Hiver Camille Claudel The Nasty Girl Europa Europa Entre Nous Divorce Italian Style The Story of Adele H Wings of Desire Other movies I liked: Sunset Boulevard Double Indemnity Full Metal Jacket V for Vendetta Gandhi The Killing Fields Being There The Grifters Welcome to Sarajevo The War of the Roses Re: what is your favorite movie

>couldn't see it >was too asphyxiating Wasn' it? If you didn't like that one, then don't watch his road trip trilogy (all three were in German, IIRC also b&W, pretty much the same thing). But Faraway, So Close was beautiful. I liked it more than Wings. Re: what is your favorite movie

it wasn't that i didn't like paris, texas it was just too asphyxiating but that's not necessarily a bad thing it means it had a deep impact and then it felt like i couldn't breathe because there was such a lonely reverberation to it that only those two could have pulled off like that sometimes i just have to take a break then see it over or see it piece meal that's the way it goes, sometimes it means, that perhaps the film was very spiritual i don't like violent films either violence is already imbued without the flesh being severed anyhow so why be redundant? i like the blood cells to be INSIDE their veins thank you Re: what is your favorite movie
