I like all those Weaver. Everytime I see a list, I see more to add to mine. I don't think that I can really have a top 10 or so. It's just too hard. Heck, I've watched Top Gun at least 10 times and have enjoyed it every time. I could easily say that's one of my favorites. I give up, I have too many favorites that I can't sort into a top 10 or 20.

I know exactly what you mean. It is tough. It is also difficult to judge what makes a good movie. Take for example the movie Money Train with Wesley Snipes and Woody Harrelson. I can watch that movie anytime, I mean anytime. I have probably seen it over over 25 times. I don't think it is an excellent movie, per se, but I can always watch it. Then there are other amazing movies that I don't want to see again. One being The Deer Hunter, another being Dr. Shivago (sp?).

It's just tough to define what is and what is not a good movie.

I agree, there are some that I could add also, just off the top ohf my head...
T2, Total Recall, Speed
How about Charley, On Golden Pond for old time tear jerkers

What we could do is break it down by genere...
ie: Horror
Sci-Fi
Drama
Action
Fantasy

What does everyone think about that ?
