Surprised nobody has mentioned the Greatest Chick Flick of all Time (GCFOAT) - The Notebook! 
Does this mean a few of us here identify with the character Darryl Kerrigan .
AUSTRALIANS have applied "the law of bloody commonsense'' to vote Darryl Kerrigan as the film character that most represents who we are as a nation.
Over one third of people (37 per cent) believe The Castle - the 1997 film about a working class Melbourne family's fight to save their home - best represents the real Australia, according to a nationwide survey released on Wednesday.

sat down and watched bourne identity last night as it's on so many people's lists.
was a good movie but nothing startling, imo. maybe the next two are better.
junior watched part of the disney version of hunchback from notre dame last night on the tv, which reminded me of the original anthony quinn movie - gosh - haven't seen that old movie in 20 years but i still feel emotional about the ending. the disney version was really bad.

Did it really go down that much....that in the space of 18 years, Francis Ford Coppola managed to pump out the Godfather series with ;
Did it really go downhill that much....that movies like Hellzapoppin from 1941 would rank above it ??
....and does anyone agree that Forrest Gump, winner of 6 academy awards including best picture should be at # 240.....easily outstripped by the yet unheard of movie simply titled M made in 1931 ??
Two very large movies - The Green Mile and Titanic I noticed languishing in the 330's. Who voted this list, what is an Empire magazine ??
So I gather the saying isn't true....there are 490 movies all bigger than Ben Hur !!! hahahaha
- The original version ranked as the best ever movie of all time in '72, then ;
- The follow up with the same cast pretty much as 19th best movie in '74, then ;
- The final installment flopped as the 282nd best movie in '90....

Yes Dazz...just noticed The Great Escape at # 82...ridiculous..it's a top 20 at least...?
Recently watched this for the first time...top film
Favourites of mine include
Godfather 1 & 2
Braveheart
The Usual Suspects
Goodfellas
The Negotiator
Terminator 2
Big
Forrest Gump
Predator
Commando
The Departed
Die Hard
The Saint
Coming to America
Dumb and Dumber
I also like the John Grisham movies - e.g. The Client, The Rain Maker, The Firm, the one with Samuel Jackson/Matthew McConachy/Sandra Bullock...can't think of the name...
No way could I keep it to 10! Yes, there's the 'classics' and the ones picked for the way it's been filmed or for the acting or whatever, but I like movies that have really made me FEEL something, whether it be sadness, joy, fear, happy and so on, so some of my favourites aren't necessarily up there with the 'big names'.
But here's a few I've enjoyed over the years,
Billy Elliott
Brassed Off
Full Monty
Zulu
Memento
Crash
Dances With Wolves
I'm not normally into 'silly' movies but I did enjoy Top Secret at the time and Zoolander.
I also don't like scary movies very much so usually don't watch them but I did wath The Ring and was scared out of my wits and there wasn't even any blood & guts. Must admit I sort of enjoyed being so scared over nothing. I do like physological thrillers though and liked Silence of the Lambs & Sleuth (the original) to name just two.
I watch a lot of foreign movies too some of which are fantastic.
Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (and it's 2 following films in the trilogy)
The Edge of Heaven, Pans Labyrinth, Tais Toi (Shut Up), Welcome To The Sticks, The Kite Runner, As It Is In Heaven, Amelie, Lemon Tree and many more

SMSing and emailing at the movies
Just got back from the movies at Westfield Chermside cinema.
In the last 10 years, I've probably only been to the cinema a dozen times.
I am so over noisy patrons.
Anyway, tonight we had a 20 something couple, who looked reasonably respectable, texting. TBH said the female texted pretty much non stop for the first 10 minutes of the movie. My eyes were regularly distracted by the guy's smart phone screen. Seemed he checked email or sms's half a dozen times during the film....and the phone screen would be lit up and out in the open for 5 minutes or so at a time.
So that has yet again highlighted how diverse values and consideration for others is in today's society. It has put me off going to the cinema for another 5 years I'd say.....well at least on the weekend and especially Chermside.
BTW, we made a last minute decision tonight to see Inception. Seemed to get good reviews. I thought it was pretty crap really. Once you got the general plot, the rest of it was drawn out and shallow.

I find it difficult to come up with a top ten list as I find it difficult to watch any movie too many times, but some that I have really enjoyed more than once are:
The Sound of Music
Terminator 2
Riding in Cars with Boys
Dirty Dancing
Walk the Line
Grease
A Fish Called Wanda
