where they cross-over and clap boards
If hard for me to pick just one...just of the top of my head:

Shawshank Redemption - The relationship between Andy and Red is just :wow:
Coming to America - til this day it still makes me laugh
Goodfellas/Casino - I could watch these all day... Pesci and De Niro flow together like Jordan and Pip, Styles and Kiss :ohlawd:

low key though: Remember the Titans - that scene where they take the early morning run to the battle of Gettysburg gets me every time :to:

I have more but can't think right now...

In a bad way or good way?

Good way. It's a very dope movie but hard to watch at times but it has a lot to say about violence and the nature of it and definitely New York at that time and the mind state of a Vietnam vet. In many ways it's an anti war film and clearly an anti violence film. I'll elaborate in my Death Wish review breh:youngsabo:

THIS.....it's an impossible task lol

If pressed today, I'd probably say Goodfellas.

But, on another day, I may say The Social Network, Children Of Men, The Sting, There Will Be Blood, For A Few Dollars More or On The Waterfront.

:yeshrug:

Really, really good choices.

This is a movie forum and I was wondering what everyone's pick is for the greatest movie of all time. I'm not talking about your favorite but what in your opinion is the greatest piece of celluloid ever released in a theater. Here's mine:

When I think of the "greatest" movie of all time I think of 2001 A Space Odyssey

As far as "favorite" it's probably Pulp Fiction.

Like everybody in the thread has said there's a big difference between greatest and favorite. Schindler's List and 12 Years a Slave are great films but they're not exactly something I plan on watching 1+ times a year for my enjoyment.

if i had to pick one, it'd be The Shining

+

The Empire Strikes Back- the scenes with Yoda are amazing

On The Waterfront

Wizard Of Oz

Forrest Gump. "He has no agenda and no opinion about anything except Jenny, his mother and God.", not a religious person but i think thats great

La Strada- there's a great doc. on youtube by Scorsese. i think its the most underrated movie

Ikiru- alot of movies copied the plot. the main character finds out he's dying & changes his life. but i dunno, some may find it boring
