Difficult.

Likely Jaws, for the 3 men on a boat scenes, I maintain this is the finest moment in cinematic history.

EDIT: Bah, MoD already searched through your previous posts about 'favourites' already guessed that. Ah well.

In any case, I'd also like to nominate Van Wilder: Party Liason, solely for this (Highly NSFW, very highly; watch at mod discretion and your own peril):

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Along with Princess Bride, those are the two films that I hope never have to go through the Hollywood remaketastrophe after watching what they did with John Carpenter's The Thing.

Technically, I think The Thing (2011) was actually a prequel.


At the risk of damaging the perception of my impeccable taste in movies, I actually like the 2011 prequel. It wasn't up there with the original, and could havent used, like any tension at all, but it wasn't a bad 2 hours spent.

I'm not into movies enough, and I don't have broad enough taste to try and make any claim about the best film ever. My favourite movie is the Shawshank Redemption though.

Hard enough to do a top 10...

At this moment in time, Trainspotting.

But tomorrow, I might say Big Lebowski, or LOTR or any Danny Dyer film

Or are Danny Dyer films excluded because they are all perfect?
