Capt.Jack, I have all three of your movies
sygnus21, We watch the old movies (black and white) when they're on in the evening. Some are quite interesting!

Well I love my old classics. Right now i'm on an Alfred Hitchcock binge as I just ordered

North By Northwest (Blu-Ray)
The Rear Mirror
Dial M for Murder

and just finished watching Vertago. All these are Alfred Hitchcock movies.

I also ordered The Maltese Falcon staring Humphrey Bogart. It's also in B&W.

I Can't wait to get these bad boys

I'm showing my age but I think the best movie I have seen is the 1964 "Fail Safe" with Henry Fonda and Walter Matthau. I saw it at a friends house when I was 12 and walking home I heard a jet in the sky (it was night) and it was a spooky feeling. I'll always remember that walk home.

I'll also have to rate Shawshank Redemption as a favorite of mine as well. Morgan Freeman and Tim Robbins were great in that movie.

I have Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds. I remember when I first saw it as a kid it freaked me out. Good movie, but not really one of my favorites even though I have it.

My daughter gave me "Blow" for fathers day last year and I must say I absolutely loved that movie. I think that was one of the best Johnny Depp movies i've seen to date.

Logan's Run----it got be hooked on the whole sci-fi thing.

Yes, V for Vendetta was good.

And of course Star Wars.

I also had a thing for ONJ so of course I'd have to mention Grease and Xanadu.

Abyss wasn't bad.

And finally Blade Runner and the 5th Element are fantastic.

And the enire Indiana Jones saga, to include the last one; and oh yeah The Mummy and Scorpion King arc.

Then there's the comedys--Ghostbusters, Gremlins, Big Chill, 4 Seasons, St Elmos Fire, Breakfast Club, Fast Times at Ridgemont High, the one with Tom Cruise in it falling for the call girl (Risky Business), Animal House, War Games..

Horror Schtick--Motel Hell (Farmer Vincent's Fried Critters)...

I'm missing a whole bunch--I did manage a movie theater in the early 80s.----EDIT--OMG how could I forget the classic---PORKY's....hahahaha what a but-gusting funny flick that was.

Damn so so many.

They rarely make em as good as they used to although Transformers, Star Trek and this Avatar thing all were ok.

If I had to pick two-----Logan's Run and Blade Runner.

@ chuckr

I'll go with some of the "older" Roger Moore James Bond movies, and not this modern day James Bond junk.

@ armyslowrdr

Big shout out to Blade Runner. There's another classic.

Do you read Follett? I think he is the most brilliant novelist--ever!
His spy thrillers to his 2 stories about the church and people in more ancient times--all top notch A+ efforts.

I saw Eye of the Needle at the Paramount in Hot Springs, AR way back in 70 something---I can't remember it too well--need to see it again.
