Im a big fan of Martin Scorsese so most of his films are in my list.

Goodfellas; Godfather Part 1; Carlito's Way

TaxiDriver; American Beauty; Princess's Bride

Casino; V for vendetta; One flew over the cukoo nest

The departed; City of GOD; Gladiator

Gangs of New York; Star wars 4-6; Brave Heart

Terminator 1 & 2; ALL LOTR; The shining

If you havent seen City of god, I really suggest it. One of the best movies you will ever see. The only problem its not in english.

Agreed. City of God is outstanding.

You should check out this documentary called "Bus 174." It's about one of those Rio youths who grows up and goes crazy and hijacks a bus. They just really explore the whole City of God scene. One of the best documentary's that I've seen in awhile.

The Color Purple..A great movie!

"All my life I've had to fight...I fought my brothers..I fought my uncles..a girl child ain't safe in a home full of mens..but I never thought I'd have to fight in my own home. I luvs Harpo..God knows I do..but I'll kill em dead for I let him beat me...You want a dead son-in-law Ms. Celie...you just keep on telling him like you do"..Oprah as Sophia (incidently Harpo is Oprah spelled backwards and the name of her production company)

I will try to throw some quotes of new classics that haven't been mentioned yet which are in my top 100 favorite movies of all time, guess who?:

1. "Get off of her you b@tch!"

2. "Helloooo Sydney!"

3. "1.21 jigawatts!?!?"

4. "Death is a dish that is best served cold....it's very cold, in space."

5. "Are you saying men can be friends with someone they find unattractive?"

"No you pretty much want to nail them too."

6. "Are we to believe that boiling water soaks into a grit faster in your kitchen than any place on the face of the earth?"

7. "You got me? Who's got you?

8. "I know what you're thinking, 'cause right now I'm thinking the same thing. Actually, I've been thinking it ever since I got here: Why oh why didn't I take the BLUE pill?"

9. "Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big old storm right in the eye and says, "Give me your best shot. I can take it."

10. "This isn't flying, this is falling with style!"

11. "It wasn't me, it was the one-armed man!"

12. "Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?"

13. "They're heeeere."

14. "Always some motherf***** tryin' to ice skate uphill."

15. "Don't you ever talk about my friends. You don't know any of my friends. You don't look at any of my friends. And you certainly wouldn't condescend to speak to any of my friends. So you just stick to the things you know: shopping, nail polish, your father's BMW, and your poor, rich drunk mother in the Caribbean."

16. "Police, come quickly, I've just killed an intruder."

17. "Two days ago, I saw a vehicle that would haul that tanker. You want to get out of here? You talk to me."

18. "Fingernails? That's amazing you saying that. That made me remember the dream I had last night."

19. "What if I told you insane was working fifty hours a week in some office for fifty years at the end of which they tell you to piss off; ending up in some retirement village hoping to die before suffering the indignity of trying to make it to the toilet on time? Wouldn't you consider that to be insane?"

20. "You don't seem to want to accept the fact you're dealing with an expert in guerrilla warfare, with a man who's the best, with guns, with knives, with his bare hands. A man who's been trained to ignore pain, ignore weather, to live off the land, to eat things that would make a billy goat puke."

I know this JUST came out, but I saw it once, and it instantly became one of my favorite movies. I must have watched it a 100 times now:

Kiss Kiss Bang Bang

One of my favorite quotes from the movie:

Gay Perry: F*** your money.

Harry: A talking monkey?

Gay Perry: Yeah, a talking monkey. Came here from the future. Ugly sucker, only says "ficus."

Not my favorite movie of all time, but everybody should see Guess Who's Coming To Dinner. Sidney Poitier doesn't get nearly the credit he deserves for being an all time great actor.

I'm surprised that some of you think Dumb and Dumber is a "Classic Movie". I just don't think this movie was funny.

I agree with those that think Lawrence of Arabia, Casablanca, Godfathers, Goodfellas and Shawshank Redemption are classics.

For comedy classics I would say, History of the World Part II, Caddyshack, Mash and A Fish Called Wanda.

And I am not ashamed to consider The Sound of Music a classic.
