Quite the fan of the early 1970s, eh?

All of those 70's scifi films are worth seeing, even if for the 'cheese' factor alone.

Liquid Sky

Head

One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest

Psychedelic Glue-Sniffin Hillbillies

Easy Rider

Eraserhead

Clockwork Orange

Repo Man

Pink Flamingos

Wild In the Streets

Blue Velvet

I know that's eleven but no way can I choose which 1 to eliminate.I could easily make this a top 25

Edit: This was my favorite movie viewed in the now almost extinct realm of movie watching, the drive-in:

Yeah…if you had kept it just to the first one, I might have supported it. But everyone knows that the time travel depicted in the sequel is flawed. If Marty left the time stream to visit the future, how did he wind up aging? It's impossible!

You know, I've been saying that for years, and no one ever understands what the hell I'm talking about. It's something I've learned to overlook, though. :)

Okay, I'm just an ass or a film snob, maybe both. I guess since the topic is Top Ten All-Time Movies you could read that as your personal favorite top 10 movies and in that case those would be whatever movies entertain you. So fine.

But if we were just doing a list of what the top 10 all time great films were, Garden State doesn't even belong in the conversation, and I enjoyed the movie. Maybe I'm alone here?

If that's how you're looking at it, then there are a hell of a lot of movies in this thread that don't belong in the conversation.

The thing is, I'm not trying to say that any of the movies on my list contain the best acting, or the best screenplay, or the best characters, or the best plot, or the best anything. They're simply the movies I've enjoyed the most over the years, the ones I keep coming back to over and over again for one reason or another. That's all.

Is there a reason you're dismissing anything and everything made before the 1980's?

Perhaps because I was born in 1982, and just never really got into the classics. I've seen a few that I would rate rather highly, though, like Seven Samurai. Oh, and Monty Python and the Holy Grail was 1975, by the way, and the first Star Wars was 1977.

Sling Blade

Psychotronic!

That was the 2nd movie in a double header featuring the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Needless to say,but I definitely stuck around for the 2nd feature.

I saw Videodrome in a theater with a mailman friend of mine. We toked up before the movie. He was later murdered in a postal rampage. Whenever I watch the film I always think of that. It really creeps me out.

Triology:
Blue, White, Red

White was fantastic! The others were yawn-a-thons, IMHO.

Blue is my personal fav, although most of the consensus is that Red is the best of the three but I disagree..

I favor Blue too.

MASH
Cinema Paradiso
Raiders of the Lost Ark
City of God
The Empire Strikes Back
Elevator to the Gallows
Pulp Fiction
Run Lola Run
Pan's Labyrinth
Wizard of Oz
