And it's nice to see someone else with Transformers: The Movie on their list.


Comicbook movies seemed to peak with X2 - anything that's come since, I could provide a short essay explaining what I find flawed, from a comic-geek perspective and just as a movie in itself :)

And TF:TM has been just under Star Wars in my favourite movies since 1986 - I have a worn out videocassette and soundtrack tape, and currently have the original US DVD, the UK "Reconstructed" DVD, and fully intend to get the new 20th anniversary edition too! I like how it pulls no punches in the name of promoting the new toys, killing off the old ones - no last-minute dub here, when the Autobots are standing around Optimus, with Arcee saying he's gone into a coma...

Well, it's kind of hard to narrow it down to just five, but I'll try.

1) Aliens
2) The Terminator
3) The Lord of the Rings
4) Spider-Man 2 (best superhero movie ever, imo)
5) John Capenter's The Thing

Those 1st 2 were my favorite movies when I was in high school, and I've watched them countless times on DVD. Also a big reason why I'm a big James Cameron fan.

OOOOOOOooh. The THing. Definitely a cool flick and the video game was, rumor has it, totally awesome too. I remember watching it on tv many times when I was 10 or 12 but later on as an adult, I learned just how cool it was/is. Good call.

Also, it wasn't on my list, but the Lord of the Rings Trilogy is freaking great. I loved 'em in the theaters and saw them multiple times each. I have the extended versions of them and watching them all back to back is quite an experience. Same with the 6 Star Wars movies.

Back to the Future
Indiana Jones
Die Hard
Lethal Weapon
Alien(s)/Predator

All are just great series of movies to enjoy back to back to back. :)
