What is yours?
For me it has to be the whole Lord of the Rings saga, wholly based in New Zealand where there are landscapes of great magnificence. Probably a favourite because I’m into the fantasy/deep lore type films.

No one else seems to have noticed that you won this competition when you said American Beauty. |
Does the subsequent allegations from a star in that film ruin it for you? Emotion and art in crisis? |  | | |

A tad of an exaggeration! The early 70s was packed full of credible horrors |
Not an exaggeration at all either in the fact that it was all new and the fact that audiences reacted in the way that they did. |  | | |

That there were a number of successful horror films then is a matter of fact. We can say that the film subsequently significantly impacted on future product (often badly unfortunately, perhaps akin to the Blair Witch Project?). We can't say that it was revolutionary. | | | |

Not sure who the 'we' are-a bit like the 'we' that wanted MM out I suppose.
I can say it was revolutionary thank you, you can say what you want.
Good night. | | | |

True. Please don't keep that cheddar in your ears too long mind you. It'll upset the locals. | | | |

For a list of films for a 'favourite film' thread you take the biscuit. A dry wheat one mind you, given your choices (e.g. only half of the Alien series were worth watching; the Sixth Sense was based on a bleedin obvious twist; Saving Private Ryan is bobbins compared to Stalingrad). | | | |

I looked at your posting history because I had never come across you on here before.
It seems that you made a multitude of political posts-which explains why I had not come across you because such threads are of no interest to me-and then disappeared for a year and a bit.
You now seem to have returned wanting to pick a fight with anyone and everyone on any subject so I might come across you again. | | | |

"Emotion and art in crisis?"
What are you dribbling on about ? Maybe read back what you write before posting. |  | | |

Good 3 ( or 4 ) there.
Glengarry Glen Ross is a cracker.
Sexy Beast (as someone added)
Most films with Spencer Tracey (Bad day at Black Rock), Gregory Peck (To Kill a Mockingbird), Humphrey Bogart (Maltese Falcon).
12 Angry Men is probably my favourite of all. | | | |

I've got a replica John Wark shirt from Escape to Victory. Didn't realise how much they're going for online nowadays! |
i had the actual one in my hands in 04'. Wark was selling off a load a shirts in that memorabilia shop on the corner of Museum Street. I could only afford one, so went with the UEFA cup final, home leg, shirt. I regret it now, 600 quid framed. I shouldv'e wacked down the plastic. It had all the autographs on it, except bobby Moore. | | | |
