GrahamJags Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Toy Story. I’ve grown up with this film and it’s stuck with me throughout. I’m 27 now and still love every single minute of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellboy1991 Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 All your choices are wrong..... there can be only one!Highlander. Been watching this film since I was a young lad. Outstanding sound track, great one liners, a Scotsman playing a Spanish Egyptian and a French Canadian playing a Scotsman. What’s not to enjoy. I have watched quite a few better films however this is my favourite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one liners are fanstaic 'hi im candy' .... 'i know you are'That’s a fantastic claim to fame. I asked my parents at the age of 12 if I could change my name to Connor McLeod. They refused....Clancy Brown puts in a brilliant performance as the Kurgan. Just a side note however it’s ‘Hi I’m Candy’.... ‘Of course you are!’.

Certainly one of the all time great films and for me The Blues Brothers with one of the all time great quotes - “Use of unnecessary violence in apprehension of the Blues Brothers…has been approved”. For laughs - Planes, Trains and Automobiles - the scene where John Candy is driving and Steve Martin is sleeping cracks me up every time or National Lampoons Xmas Vacation - again has many classic scenes.

Uncle Psychosis Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Scott Pilgrm Vs. The World Its not the best film ever, but its certainly my favourite. Just love everything about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falkirkthebigclub Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 My opinion changes over time but, right now, I'm really into Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. The performances are so subtle & understated, you have to watch it a few times to fully appreciate it. That & Airplane! Comedic genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rarely visit this forum. Is there a best thing on TV ever (film, drama, documentary) thread? The US series Newsroom and GoT are far better than any film I’ve watched.

mike rankine Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I wouldn't rate Highlander in my all time top 10 - that honour would include The Apartment, A Wonderful Life, Dead Poet's Society, When Harry Met Sally, Blazing Saddles - but it's the only film I watched three times at the cinema when it first came out.I loved everything about it, but was particularly taken by the editing...the magical way it would cut between significant scenes (e.g. modern day Connor McLeod staring into a fish tank; the camera pans up the tank and seamlessly cuts to a Scottish loch with the original Connor learning to swim).Watched it twice with my girlfriend (now wife) and then with a few University friends. The latter hated it![emoji38] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
