What is everyone's top ten favorite movies of all time? I rank Sequels alongside of the originals so for example, "Clerks" and "Clerks 2" share the same spot because it's the same characters and it's more like an extension of the original movie. - The Crow (Though Inception is far superior, I still find The Crow to be my favorite movie of all time.)
- Inception
- Fight Club
- Starship Troopers (One of those films that most consider bad, but it was so bad it was great to me.)
- Clerks / Clerks 2
- The Departed (I saw and owned all of the Infernal Affairs films long before I even saw The Departed so I went in thinking I would hate it, but Leo won me over and the script was solid.)
- The Dark Knight (I liked Batman Begins but it wasn't until The Dark Knight that I considered the series a Top Ten worthy franchise. So instead of faking that Batman Begins was a Top Ten movie, I just put down The Dark Knight.)
- Battle Royale (I didn't like Battle Royale 2 as much as I did the first so I don't list it's sequel.)
- The Boondock Saints / The Boondock Saints 2
- Romeo + Juliet (I was in an English class one day and my teacher put in Romeo + Juliet and I was like, "great.." Turns out that it was really good. It's what introduced me to Leonardo DiCaprio.)

Why would anyone kill you for liking Pokemon? Also which Taking Of Pelham 123 did you like? The old 1970's version or the new Denzel Washington version?

Ah, I liked both but I have to go with the 1970's version. The main bad guy in that one was more cunning. John Travolta was good but not great. Overall when you see the 1970's version and then see the newer version it just seems like your seeing the same movie but in modern times.

I've never seen Tommy Boy (because I am not a fan of David Spade or Chris Farley). I assume it's a good movie, I just can't see myself watching them for however long the movie is. I have seen all the other films on your list. I also respect someone who says they liked Shaolin Soccer because I have tried in the past to get people to watch it but they would refuse going, "I don't want to watch a film about Soccer." So props to you.

I have heard views on the Lord of the Rings movies that range from great to horrible. There are some that call it all one big Masterpiece. In Kevin Smith's movie, "Clerks 2" one character describes the Lord of the Rings movies as "people walking to a volcano." Of course stuff happens between them walking but the premise is that the characters must get to a volcano to destroy a ring. I personally have seen them all and while I enjoyed the experience I would never want to watch them again. At most they are a 7 out of 10 on my rating scale. I say rent it just so you can see them. Everyone should see them at least once.
