 Your all-time favorite movie (and runner-up)
On my last radio show Duran & I talked about our favorite movie & our runner-up (his was Silent Hill  [runner-up: Saving Private Ryan] and mine was Kill Bill [runner-up: Thank You For Smoking]).
So here's my question: what's your all-time favorite movie (and, if you have one, what is your runner-up)? And yes I'll be reading off responses again on the show.

My favorite movies have always been the original Star Wars Trilogy but A New Hope stands out for me. My runner up changes every once and a while but at the moment it is Shaun of the Dead. American Pie 2 deserves an honorable mention.

Favorite movie would be Leon aka The Professional. Runner-up would be Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.

UHF, Good Burger, Spaceballs, Fight Club, Zoolander, Shanghai Knights, I don't really have one favorite or runner-up. There are probably a slew of movies I loved that I'm forgetting.
It's a three way tie between UHF, Spaceballs, and Good Burger.

Once Upon a Time in the West, runner up is every other movie.
I like Repo Man though.

What
Kenan & Kel hated each other's asses off the set of the show for a LONG time. Impossible.
As for favorite movie, it'd definately have to be [i]The Weather Man[/i].

dude...that's the weirdest ass combination of movies ever... i fail to see how you could put the movie goodburger, Shanghai Knights, Spaceballs, or Zoolander (though zoolander was a step above the rest of those movies) in contention with Fight Club...Anywho, my faves are:
1. Fight Club
2. Gladiator
3. Dangerous Lives of Altar Boys
4. Braveheart
5. V for Vendetta
6. Donnie Darko

Yeah the whole "Good Burger" thing was sort of a joke. But yeah.
My favorite movies:
#1 [b]Fight Club[/b]
UHF
End of Evangelion
As Good as it Gets
Crash
Princess Mononoke
The Big Lebowski

[quote="GoldenRhino"]Crash[/quote]
Are we talking David Cronenberg auto-erotic Crash or that really bad Crash from last year?
Also: As Good As It Gets- Win.

[quote="Biscuit Hammer"]I have an opinion about your favorite movies.[/quote]
Favorite and best are totally different things. If this were a thread about "best" movie, I probably wouldn't post, because I'm not a movie buff. I couldn't really give two shits about what the best movies ever are.
I really do love Good Burger. It's a [u]fun[/u] movie. Same goes to UHF and Spaceballs, just fun movies.
Fuck, I don't need to be a movie buff to recognize that Street Fighter is the best movie ever.
