"Favorite" and "best" are very different, in my opinion.....I would have to change my list as well, I know that a few of my favorites are not necessarily the best films ever made. :)

Every time I put in "Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band," my face breaks into an ear-to-ear grin and I start laughing. I know it's a terrible movie but I enjoy it immensely. I even like some of the cover versions of the songs. Is that wrong? Tell me, is that wrong? I just want to have a good time.

...You like Date Movie...?

ferretchucker 01-01-2008 05:37 AM

I like date movie. Certain bits were just overthetop but I thought it was a pretty funny film and definetely better than epic movie.

ChronoGrl 01-01-2008 04:31 PM

I think that I'd add Juno to my Runner's Up list of all-time favorite movies. And possibly Across the Universe.

You know, I've never seen The Warriors, but I just TiVO'd it off of TCM (which means it's uncut). I've heard good things, and now that I see it's a V favorite, I'm doubly excited.
