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.

Caer Sylvanus, I love your choices. Fight Club is genius, and Bruce Campbell movies are awesome, as well as any Kevin Smith movie. Id say i like Mallrats more than Chasing Amy, though.

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

I love Reservoir Dogs, but Pulp Fiction is definitely my favorite Tarantino film. either way, Harvey Keitel is an awesome actor.

Ya, Pulp Fiction is the one of my faves too! Tarantino could never really top that one.
It's really hard to just come up with just 5 movies because they probably change with whatever my mood is at the time. So, I'll put Pulp Fiction at number 6 then!

oops I forgot to add this...
Mr. Fox definately rocks as a character. He was one cool mofo!
I think that is my fave Keitel charcter in all the Tarantino movies.
Mr. White was a great character too, tho.

Oh ya! The NSX totally rocks...I so wanted one after I saw that! I like how he was just so cool and all business while sipping on his coffee.

LOL
The hair is pretty outragous but how bout those leather pants?
Me and my friends called him "The Bulge" forever after we saw it
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.
