OK so it is a bit of an old one now but "My best friend's wedding" would have to be one of my all time favourits. I love Julia Riberts in just about everything she does. We even sang "Say a little prayer for you" at my brother's wedding. Very corny but great fun. What's your favourite movie and why?

I love this movie too. We actually had a girls' movie night for my sister-in-law the week of her wedding and we watched all wedding related movies. I love Cameron Diaz in this film! She plays perky and perfect so well. Has anyone seen her in her latest film, The Holiday? I'll wait 'til it comes out on video.

I agree she is good, but I wish Julia had won out...

I didn't see that. Sounds good. I liked "Meet the Fockers." It was so funny. Did you see that one?

I agree that My Best Friends Wedding is one of my favorite all time movies. It is a great release movie. Something that you can jsut sit and laugh at. No matter how many times you see it. There are very few movies out there like that.

True. Even though I know how it ends, I keep hoping Julia will win out in the end...

She is good in the strong acting parts you are right, but there is always time for a light hearted movie as well. Thanks for your comment

It's definitely one of my favorites. I even got my niece to watch, at a very young age, and she still loves to watch it. The highlight for my nephew (her brother) was that song you mentioned, which he loves to sing, don't ask me why! I even got a library book with the words to the song and they both totally enjoyed the book because of the song. I don't think I have a single favorite movie, I love too many of them but here are some of my favorites of what I have seen: Miss Congeniality (1&2), Shrek, Princess Diaries 2, The Pretender Island of the Haunted (TV movie...does that count?), Intolerable Cruelty (a new fave!), The Sound of Music, Star!, Mary Poppins, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (some really cute songs in this!), Runaway Bride, Grease...and I am sure I am forgetting a few because I probably haven't seen them in a while.

I love My Best Friend's Wedding too! I think that the lines "when you love someone, you say it out aloud or the moment passes you by" is sooo true. And in that movie, She had to reveal her feelings and not just try to call the wedding off. I think that "the moment" was when they were in the ferry and that the band was playing their song..

The moment on the Ferry was definately the moment when the whole show could have changed direction. Thanks for your resposne.

I don't really have a 'favourite' movie, but I do like "The Shawshank Redemption" and "The Green Mile". I like all kinds of movies from action/adventure to thriller and romantic comedies.

I would have to say I love the movie Shrek, anything with animals talking in it is a goer for me, and the story in Shrek had a good meaning as well! I would probably sit and watch it again too!

We own both Shrek one and two and they are movies that you find different things in every time you watch them. The kids have a different take on it to adults. Love em.

I like all of Julia Roberts movies. My best friends wedding is a good one but my all time favorite of hers is Steel Magnolias.

my favorite movie of all time.. go ahead and laugh.. is Grease !! I know every word, every song, everything. I own both 1 & 2 on DVD and even watch when they come on TV. My husband is so annoyed sometimes, but then he just laughs at me. It is such a fun movie.. I just love it. My Best Friend's Wedding was good too.. I liked it.

Grease is definately an immortal movie! We have Grease on video too but I didn't like Grease 2as much. I think being an Aussie, I had a special place for Olivia...

I love all of those as well but I haven't heard of 'if only'. I will have to look it up. Sometimes they have different names in diff countries too.
