Top 5 favorite movies
Ok, what are your top 5 favorite movies? they dont have to be in order, just your 5 favorites. also, you can just use a series as one as well(like Indiana Jones or James Bond, etc) ill do my best to say mine, but i really have a hard time picking 5 favorites. here goes: Tombstone, Braveheart, The Shawshank Redemption,(these 3 are always in the top 5, the other 2 are subject to change with mood or forgetfulness) The Matrix movies, and Pulp Fiction. lol its so hard to pick..oh well, those will do for now.

Stone and Sea are deep in life,
two unalterable symbols of the world;
permanence at rest, and permanence in motion;
participants in the Power that remains.

"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

Hellfire - Labrynth... LOL... that's a very interesting movie. My friends love it to death, but somehow I can't get over David Bowie with his hair all teased up. It's unsettling. And then that little thing riding around on the stick.. "Ow my aching--"
Anyhow:
The Princess Bride
Mystery Science Theatre 3000
The Holy Grail
Zoolander
Independence Day

The hair is pretty outragous but how bout those leather pants?


Mystery Science Theater was seriously funny stuff too. You'll probably like the movie "Brain Candy" by Kids in the Hall if you haven't seen it yet.
