Top 3 movies

This is truly an incredible list, twilight_75! Shawshank Redemption is indeed a great inspirational film, which to be honest, really moved me. Oddly, though, whenever I watch Shawshank Redemption, I always think of The Count of Montecristo. If I were to guess, though, perhaps I tend to think of the latter because it has some similarities (in regard a man's quest for retribution or justice, for instance) with the former. I could not remember if I have already watched American History X, however, but is this a movie that has something to do with Nazism, which stars Edward Norton? If it is, then I believe I've seen it already. In regard Gone with the Wind, though, I must admit that I haven't had the chance to view it yet. Before I try to find a copy to watch, to which genre does it belong? I hope soon enough you could recall the horror films you've watched, which you could hopefully recommend. Thanks a lot for your very good post and Happy myLotting! ;)

Scarlett O'hare, to my mind, seems to possess the same qualities of Dominique Francon or Dagny Taggart (Ayn Rand's female characters in her books--The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged, respectively). Anyway, if Gone with the Wind is indeed the first film in "technecolour" and Scarlett O'hare is truly a powerfully attractive character to watch, I would not mind viewing it, even if it's 4 hours long. Thanks a lot for your very relevant comment, twilight_75! ;)

It is Edward Norton. Gone with the wind was either the first film in technecolour or one of the first. I love scarlett O'hare a beautiful selfish but incredible strong woman. Be warned if you do decide to watch it, it's a whole 4 hours long!

I fully agree that 300 is really worth watching n number of times. Man of Honor is likewise a very inspiring movie, essentially serving as a testament to the immense strength and willpower of the human spirit. As to Titanic, I share your feeling about the characters, but the movie is indeed amazing, if only because it was a film about true love. Happy myLotting and more power! ;)

At the onset, I would like to commend you because you really took the time to think hard of your list, AmbiePam. ;) Anyway, among your top 3 list, I'm only fortunate to have had the opportunity to watch the last one. While You Were Sleeping really seems very interesting and, given that you've "watched it numerous times over the years," I would most certainly try to find a copy of it so I could view it myself. Just a question, though, is it a love story? Last of the Mohicans likewise seems to be equally interesting, especially since, as you've clearly said, "It just swept me away, so much so that I bought the movie." Thanks to your post, I would try to find a copy of this movie as well, if only to experience what you've experienced when you watched this historical drama. Happy myLotting and thanks for your insightful post!(",)

While You Were Sleeping is essentially a love story I guess, but it is so funny that I don't even think of it that way. It's rated PG, and a very clean movie too, so I don't feel like my brain will rot if I watch it, LOL. You know what I mean?

Absolutely, AmbiePam. I'll try to get a copy of it because I really need a good laugh these days. Thanks for giving me quite a clear idea of what While You Were Sleeping is basically about. Happy myLotting! ;)

andben, I'm really sorry if I've given you a "very difficult" time in choosing your top 3 movies. Nevertheless, I must say that your choices for your top 3 truly deserve your nod. Thanks a lot for your fine sharing and Happy myLotting! ;)

Gone With The Wind - historical drama Tombstone - Action Heart Break Ridge - Action/Drama The Notebook - Romance I suggest you watch these movies, they are very good!

Your kind suggestions are very well taken, mamasan34. I would really watch such great films asap! Thanks a lot for giving me a teaser as regards your amazing top 3 movies! Happy myLotting! ;)

The movies included in your top 3 list really seem to be very good ones, considering that you could "watch these movies thousands of times." However, to be honest, I haven't watched such films yet. I've watched Clint Eastwood's films like Dirty Harry, The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, Million Dollar Baby, among others, but I haven't watched Heart Break Ridge yet. If you were to classify the 4 movies you've enumerated, to what genre would each of them belong? Thanks a lot for your much valued post and Happy myLotting, mamasan34! ;)

What a very nice list, Bionicman! To be sure, The Matrix, Fight Club, and Akira are really excellent movies, which I was able to luckily view as well. Happy myLotting and thanks for your straightforward post! ;)

Thanks a lot for your highly interesting and very substantial post! I truly appreciate your impressive contribution to this discussion! Happy myLotting, sarahruthbeth! ;)

Like you, srahruthbeth, I have seen many great films from different genres and liked a lot of them. What you like, though, is more important to me and it would not really matter whether your top 3 movies belong to a particular genre or to several genres. You're really free to share your top 3 lists from all movie genres, if you want, since it would surely enrich this discussion. Thanks a lot and Happy myLotting! ;)

Lol... You have quite a varied Top 3 list (fantasy/fiction, action, and a love story), Kiko. By the way, who directed The Notebook? I haven't had the chance to watch it yet, but many people tell me that it's really a good emotionally charged film. Thanks for your greatly valued contribution and Happy myLotting! ;)

Indeed, such movies are compellingly moving and that's why I'm not at all surprised why you "cry everytime" you watch such. Thanks a lot for sharing your list and Happy myLotting, youless! ;)

You have a very nice list, fab315! ;) Yeah, Finding Nemo is indeed a fascinating animation with a good moral. No wonder you nicknamed your lil girl as such. Lord of the Rings, I feel, is a trilogy that is really worth watching, given its amazing special effects and equally amazing cast of characters. 5O First Dates is obviously a delight to watch, too, and its soundtrack only heightens your overall pleasurable viewing experience. Thanks for your much appreciated contribution in further enriching this discussion! Happy myLotting! (",)

Without revealing too much, can you give us a sneak peak of "The Intervention Club," mode09? Thanks a lot and Happy myLotting!

I also include another 2 which are TITANIC and Pursuit of Happiness

Thanks a lot for sharing your interesting list and for the equally interesting reasons why such movies made it to your top list. Stay active and Happy myLotting, 4monsters4me!

Thanks a lot for your straightforward post and Happy myLotting, sweetgarg!

Among the three LOTR films, though, which is your favorite and why? Thanks and Happy myLotting, pyewacket!

Not at all. By all means, nimette, share as much as you want. I must say that this is the first time I came across fearless hyena and pet shop horror. As it made your top list, though, I'm sure that such are really good, right? Thanks and Happy myLotting!

To be honest, my friend, I'm not really familiar with "telugu" and "chiru" movies. Could you at least give us an idea what these movies are? Thanks a lot for your much appreciated sharing and Happy myLotting, sudhajosyula50!

Thanks for your concise post and Happy myLotting, mujtabachang!
