I've only seen a couple from your list, but Young Frankenstein is one of my absolute favourites.
Loved Blade..bought the set
The Matrix..bought the set, only enjoyed the first
Pirates of the Caribbean..first was great, the rest so, so.
Bourne Identity, got the set
Loved, "Blood Diamonds", traumatised by it would not watch it again
Mississippi Burning
JFK
The Untouchables
Sherlock Holmes with Robert Downey Jr
Notting Hill..(Feel good factor)
Downfall
The Usual Suspects
LA Confidential
Chocolat


Hated..The Perfect Storm... No point to this (other than it makes you want to slash your wrists)

Have not seen Titanic..(like happy endings)
Basic Instinct...too wood
Schindlers List, studied Schindlers Arc for A level.

This is a mere snippet BTW

:1980_boogie_down:We should do our own "Oscars" especially since it's an International weekend. No Black tie or Frocking up required, but we could do a poll.
Do a ist of categories etc. I always thought I hated westerns, but I loved, "The Quick and the Dead" Young Guns, we definitely need categories.

Dead Man's Shoes, Jackie Brown, Red Dragon, Anchorman, The Godfather Trilogy, Back to the Future, Raging Bull, American History X, Blade Runner, Apocalypse Now, Black Hawk Down, The Crow, Rocky, Four Lions.

I could name a load more. Never understood the longevity of the Saw franchise, the first one was ok but the rest were so average, a lot of them bordering on total crap.
 
Used to go to the Cinema a lot but very rarely these days. Two films I liked were 'The Green Mile' and 'The Pianist' starring Adrien Brody. If you haven't seen 'The Pianist' I'd recommend that you try to see it.
 
I'm going to name some which I like which I don't think have been said yet.

Se7en
Lucky Number Slevin
Bostocks Cup
Top Gun
Love Actually <smooch>
Friday
Next Friday
How High
Good Will Hunting
The Kingdom
Coyote Ugly
American Gangster
Coach Carter
Remember the Titans
Cool Runnings :afro:
Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels...

...I could name more but can't be arsed to think at the moment.
