    3. Fargo
    4. Blade Runner
    5. Silence of the Lambs
    6. Black Swan

    10. Cabaret

    Honorable Mentions: Requiem for a Dream, 12 Angry Men, Princess Mononoke, Toy Story, Fellowship of the Ring, The Dark Knight, The Apartment, To Kill a Mockingbird, My Neighbor Totoro.

    What are yours?

    Narrowing it down to just ten seems like an impossible task, and placing them in the correct order, even more so. But these ten movies always end up on any list I put together:

    In no particular order:

    - Jurassic Park
    - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
    - Bram Stoker's Dracula
    - Mary Reilly
    - Hook
    - The Land Before Time
    - Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
    - The Illusionist
    - The Little Mermaid
    - Cars

    I have a harder time picking favorite movies than anything else in the world. Favorite video games? I'll give you a nice long list. Songs? It's a bit more difficult, but I can do that too. Movies? I wouldn't even know where to start. I don't think I even have one single favorite movie anymore.

    I also haven't watched any in a really long time, which is terrible seeing as (SPOILER)I have a Bachelor of Arts in them.

    Ohh how did I forget about spirited away? That movie was a masterpiece of storytelling.
    I can't seem to do a list... I like different movies for different things. Be it storytelling (Then I'll throw some Hayao Miyazaki (princess mononoke, spirited away, etc.) or Tarantino (pulp fiction kill bill) in general in there but if I want some action explosions etc. I'll go with a lot of other choices. The branches extend too far to pick a favorite, it'd be easier to pick a top ten favorite movies IN a certain genre, I sadly cannot do such a vague top ten as of now (ow offense just personal problems)
    It doesn't help I keep forgetting movies I know and love.
    Eyyyyyyyyyyyyy

    Top 5 (easy):
    The Godfather
    The Godfather Part II
    Jurassic Park
    The Empire Strikes Back
    Return of the Jedi

    Next 5 (harder):
    Raiders of the Lost Ark
    Star Wars
    The Big Lebowski
    Die Hard
    The Two Towers

    Top ten is hard since they get pretty close near the end of the list.

    I really like Pulp Fiction and The Green Mile. If my top ten favorite films existed, they'd be in there, but I like way too many to limit them to such a short list. Try like favorite 100 films thennn...I could come up with a list but I cba.

    I really like all of Tom Hanks' movies. Good actor!

    I mean I just can't pick. This is hard. But I love that Secret of NIHM is on your list, Lads.
