Army of Darkness. I can watch that any day of the week.

Without Top Gun there wouldn't be nearly as many "what % get jets" questions! I'd call it a revolutionary movie.

Pulp Fiction
Boondock Saints
Bourne Ultimatum

[great threadjack or greatest threadjack?]

You've got to be kidding. Good movie.

Greatest Movie of All Time has many in the running, and I'd say "Zoolander" isn't one of them.

Sadly I'm not kidding, Zoolander and [SIZE=-1]The Shawshank Redemption are hands down the greatest movies of all time.

^I forgot Boondock Saints

Sadly I'm not kidding, Zoolander and [SIZE=-1]The Shawshank Redemption...[/SIZE]

That's a pretty unusual mix of favorites, I must say.

I try not to confine myself to one genre...

I can't believe The Big Lebowski hasn't been mentioned.

Great movie! Alot of ins, alot of outs, alot of what-have-yous

North by Northwest.....just watched it the other night and was reminded how good some of the classics really are.

Zoolander was easily one of the top 5.....worst movies I have ever seen, it sucked horribly.......

Iron Eagle

I could go on all day. Please note - Zoolander, American Pie, et al aren't on my list. If I'm in the mood for sophmoric humor, yes - they're good. But they aren't greatest movies of all time. In case you're curious, I'm using only one metric to define what's in the running - it's a movie that I never once looked at my watch while it was playing...

Why does everyone leave off "The Devil's Brigade"??? It's a true story, and a great freaking WW2 movie, damnit.

To be honest, it's because I've never seen it

You're all wrong... Animal House is the greatest comedy followed by the Blues Brothers...Spaceballs/Blazing Saddles are up there as well but not numero uno. Zoolander doesn't even come close.

As far as best movie of all time... Lawrence of Arabia.
