What's the most beautiful movie you've ever seen?

EDIT: I'm talking visuals here... :)

I don't know if you'd call it "beautiful", but Saving Private Ryan has to be near the top of the list for the way it shows that war really is hell.

I'm desperately trying to think of how Strider linked "Saving Private Ryan" with "beautiful" :(

Hmm. Fellowship of the Ring, Waterworld (because water is pretty)... I dunno. I can't think of any superly beautiful movies right now. :(

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Beautiful scenery and the fight scenes are almost balletic.

What Dreams May Come was pretty, but it sucked. Hook was beautiful :)

Scarface.

Scarface is unique, but I liked Blade Runner's visuals more. They didn't rely on special effects like so many other movies.

Girl With a Pearl Earring. Slightly boring, but vibrant colors punched through the Catholic exterior and brought out the beauty of a painter.

If animations count, then spirited away or princess mononoke.

If not, then Kill bill vol 1.

Hero.
Sort of reminded me of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which also is a beautiful movie.

Meet Joe Black.

What can I say, I liked the pool. ---> almost a decent visual justification for my choice.

I loved "Final Fantasy - The spirits within", "Resident Evil", "The Last Samurai" and every "Scarie Movie"! Actually in Forest Gump, Final Fantasy and in the Last Samurai I eneded up crying and crying! In Scarie Movie I cryed of laughing!:p I hope that one day I will see a film realized by my own!

Star Wars: Episode II. Though, nowhere near better than Episode I, it had incredible visuals, especially during that picnic scene with Anakin and Padme.

Edward Scissorhands is another beautiful movie.

The Captain

Princess Mononoke hands down for me.

I'd also throw in the LOTR's trilogy for sheer epic scale.

Take care all.

Haha. Scarface, you guys. I so want to get all high like that at the end of the movie and he's all like say hello to my lil' friend, and dodging those bullets like he's invisable. But then spoiler***** some bastard creep behind him and blows him away :(

Also Lost in Translation and Enemy at the Gates, good movies.

Kill Bill Vol 1 & 2 - Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon - Big Fish - Lord Of The Rings... There're so many more, but these are the ones that's really stuck in my mind when it comes to visuals.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Beautiful scenery and the fight scenes are almost balletic.

You cannot claim the fight scenes are so good. There the biggest faked up special effect filled weapon fights ever. And that's not including all the prancin and flyin about they do. It's like forcing yourself to watch the Street Fighter film and all the Mortal Kombats all over again and again. You want good fights you look to Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan (the greates action film person ever, acting, fighting, directing and choreographing) or even to Van Damme. (Definitly not Jet Li though.)

As for a beautiful film I'd have to say LOTR: The Fellowship of the Ring. All of the scenery, the lakes, those huge stone statues of the past kings. They're brill, probably took ages to compute too.

He can claim whatever he wants. It's called personal preference.

At the moment, my vote would have to go to The City of Lost Children (La Cité des enfants perdus).

I have a friend who says exactly the same. But I totally disagree! I love the fight scenes in that movie! They're so god damn beautiful! The flying around was intended... and that's that.

The Lord of the Rings Trilogy
The Lion King
The Last Unicorn
