I have a lot of favorite movies, but my all time favorite would be "The Fifth Element". I just dont get tired of watching it, even if I've memorized the lines already. Second would be Pulp Fiction, though that goes without saying since most people vote for it as the best movie ever anyway.
Shawshank Redemption-amazing story great ending. Though the scene with the old guy was sad.
Princess Bride-How could someone not like this movie.
Spaceballs-I can qoute just bout any part.
Animal House-Funniest movie ever.
Blues Brothers- Just a classic.
Swordfish- all the twist and turns in the movie are amazing.
Hold on Snow Leopard, imma let you finish, but Windows had one of the best operating systems of all time.
If the Powerball lottery was like Lotro, nobody would win for 2 years, and then everyone in Nebraska would win on the same day. And then Nebraska would get nerfed.-pinkwood lotro fourms

For me the best war movie ever made is Saving Private Ryan. No other war movie has ever even come close to that, imho. I deem it to be the standard by which all other war movies should be judged.
Full Metal Jacket and more recently, Jarhead were also good movies.
'Quantum of Solace' continues the high octane adventures of James Bond from 'Casino Royale'. Picking up literally hours after the previous film left off, after being betrayed by Vesper, the woman he loved, 007 fights the urge to make his latest mission personal. Having captured Mr. White, and in pursuing his determination to uncover the truth, Bond and 'M' interrogate Mr. White who reveals the organization which blackmailed Vesper to steal Bond's casino winnings is far more complex and dangerous than anyone had imagined.
Forensic intelligence links an MI6 traitor to a bank account in Haiti where a case of mistaken identity introduces Bond to the beautiful but feisty Camille, a woman who has her own vendetta. Camille leads Bond straight to Dominic Greene, a ruthless businessman and major force within the mysterious criminal organization known only as 'Quantum'.
On a mission that leads him to Austria, Italy and South America, Bond discovers that Greene, conspiring to take total control of one of the world's most important natural resources, is forging a deal with the exiled General Medrano. Using his associates in the organization, and manipulating his powerful contacts within the CIA and the British government, Greene promises to overthrow the existing regime in Bolivia, giving General Medrano control of the country in exchange for a seemingly barren piece of land which is, however, a main source of the South American water supply. In a minefield of treachery, murder and deceit, Bond allies with old friends in a battle to uncover the truth. As he gets closer to finding the man responsible for the betrayal of Vesper, 007 must keep one step ahead of the CIA, the terrorists, and even 'M' herself, to unravel Greene's sinister plan and stop Quantum from getting its way.
Bella Swan has always been a little bit different. Never one to run with the crowd, Bella never cared about fitting in with the trendy, plastic girls at her Phoenix, Arizona high school. When her mother remarried and Bella chooses to live with her father in the rainy little town of Forks, Washington, she didn't expect much of anything to change. But things do change when she meets the mysterious and dazzlingly beautiful Edward Cullen. For Edward is nothing like any boy she's ever met. He's nothing like anyone she's ever met, period. He's intelligent and witty, and he seems to see straight into her soul. In no time at all, they are swept up in a passionate and decidedly unorthodox romance - unorthodox because Edward really isn't like the other boys. He can run faster than a mountain lion. He can stop a moving car with his bare hands. Oh, and he hasn't aged since 1918. Like all vampires, he's immortal. That's right - vampire. But he doesn't have fangs - that's just in the movies. And he doesn't drink human blood, though Edward and his family are unique among vampires in that lifestyle choice. To Edward, Bella is that thing he has waited 90 years for - a soul mate. But the closer they get, the more Edward must struggle to resist the primal pull of her scent, which could send him into an uncontrollable frenzy. Somehow or other, they will have to manage their unmanageable love. But when unexpected visitors come to town and realize that there is a human among them Edward must fight to save Bella? A modern, visual, and visceral Romeo and Juliet story of the ultimate forbidden love affair - between vampire and mortal.
Gattaca is probably my favorite movie right now, but I also loved Enemy At The Gates, Saving Private Ryan, and Saints and Soldiers. War movies really do bring out the worst and best of people.
Don't be terrorized! You're more likely to die of a car accident, drowning, fire, or murder! More people die every year from prescription drugs than terrorism LOL!

And an Honorable mention http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jHZpO6aNLwE
I have a soft spot for bad movies. I mean, like... really bad... insanely cheezy movies.....
Barn of the Blood LLama FTW!!!!
Although I also have to give a shout out for Killer Clowns From Outer Space and Killer Tongue.
Basically, if it's appeared on Mystery Science Theater 3000, then I love it.

Lots of acer films you guys have mentioned, but i'm surprised I haven't seen anyone post Shawshank Redemption
We're all Geniuses. Most of us just don't know it.
Serenity - Browncoats ftw
The Wild Bunch - I love the shootout at the end.
Raiders of the lost Ark
Sci Fi : BladeRunner, Alien Resurrection, The Day the Earth Stood Still
Anime : Hellsing Ultimate, Ghost in the Shell - Innocence , Full Metal Alchemist - Conqueror of Shamballa
Horror : Interview with the Vampire, Resident Evil, Fallen
Action : Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill, Red Dragon, Hannibal
Heroic : V for Vendetta, Batman Begins, Mystery Men
Hard to pick just one, but "Hellsing Ultimate III" is possibly my current favourite.
If you can't "Have your cake & eat it too", then how can "The proof of the pudding be in the eating"?
Take the Hecatomb? TCG What Is Your Doom? quiz.
Shawshank Redemption-amazing story great ending. Though the scene with the old guy was sad.

I voted for comedy; however, the most one I like is FIGHT CLUB!!! - Tyler Derden is a GOD
Sure Black Hawk Dawn is the best.
Carlito's Way and Scarface too
