Post subject:  Top 5 All-time Favorite Movies?

I thought it would be fun to see what everyones 5 all-time favorite movies are... so are you guys up for the challenge? (at least I think it's one because I'm not sure how to narrow all my favorite movies down to 5... and in order too. :blink:) btw, trilogies and the like count as one. :)

here's my list:
1. Lord of the Rings :duh:
2. Pirates of the Caribbean
3. Little Women
4. Pride and Prejudice
5. (I really want to cheat and say 'PhantomoftheOpera (a new found fave)-MeanGirls-SpiderMan-UptownGirls-FindingNeverland-ConfessionsofaTeenageDramaQueen-SleepyHollow-NationalTreasure-Elizabethtown-StarWars-PrincessDiaries-Ect' but that would be cheating.... hmmm, there's sooo many good movies though. :erm: oh, I just can't decide! :'( call me a cheater, but I really can't! :P)

[2 and 3 are equal :) ]
4. Star Wars, any movie
5. Chronicles of Narnia
[4 and 5 switch positions routinely]

It's the most wonderful of Swedish films :) It's based on the book by Astrid Lindgren (Ronia the Robber's Daughter in English). It's about a child growing up in the wilderness in ancient times. She's the daughter of the chief robber and she befriends the son of the archenemy; the chief robber of the other band. Both of the chiefs want their children to follow their in their footsteps and become chiefs themselves one day but the two kids (Ronja and Birk) rebel against their parents, refusing to contribute to such violence and criminal acts and run away to the forest. It's full of adventure and ancient mystical creatures. A very wild tale!

I have made a video with clips from the film on YouTube:

2. LotR
3. PotC
4. Hello, Dolly!

Also meriting mention is the Princess Bride, Singin` in the Rain, and the Sound of Music. :D

A lot of musicals, and all of them set pre-1940 or so. :teehee:
