What are your top 3 favorite movies of all time?

[MissAbyss]

1. The Dark Knight
2. V for Vendetta
3. The Lord of the Rings (trilogy)

 

[Vlad Tepes]

Lost Highway, They Live, and Dawn of the Dead.

 

[unluckysadness]

E.T. the extra-terrestrial, Back to the future, Ghost

 

[NaturalBornNEET]

1. End Of Evangelion
2. Fight Club
3. Lord Of The Rings trilogy

Seen barely any movies except some of the really popular classics

Omg how could I forget, the newest demon slayer movie was pure kino, even if its only draw is its sakuga, imo the cookie cutter plot complements the action

 

[StunningIntent]

1. Vanilla sky
2. Gattaca
3. Flashback (2021)

 

[Angst Filled Fuck Up]

1. Lord of the Rings
2. The Shining
3. The Machinist.

There are many others I really like (other Kubrick films like Eyes Wide Shut and 2001) but I do also love the Dark Knight. It's hard to imagine we'll ever make movies to beat the LOTR trilogy though.

 

[Grimlock]

1. Nightcrawler
2. Primer
3. Donnie Darko

 

[AreWeWinning]

1. Nightcrawler
2. Primer
3. Donnie Darko

Primer... I still don't understand that movie. I watched and read detailed explanations of it, several times, but when I watch it, I still have no clue what's going on. :)

 

[Custos]

So many wrong answers on here.

 

[London2005]

Godfather, Butch Cassidy and the sundance kid, Casnio

 

[cowplantabduction]

The Shape of Water (2017), Halloween (1978), How to Train Your Dragon (2010)

 

[ih34rty0u]

suicide room (2011), midsommar and sharing the secret

 

[kitlin]

All About Lily Chou-Chou, Mulan, and Whisper of the Heart

 

[Cosmophobic]

Bit of an assorted mix.

 

[Andarna]

1. The Lord of the Rings
2. Ghost in the Shell
3. Howl's Moving Castle

 

[Kurwenal]

I haven't watched a movie in about 15 years. I haven't seen the vast majority of films considered 'the classics', either. But my past self would likely reply with this odd assortment:
1. The Scarlet Pimpernel (1982)
2. The New World (2005)
3. Hercules (1997)

If I could expand it to stage productions that have been filmed live, I'd have a lot of choices available.

 

[asaṅkhata]

1. Truman show (I love how the film communicates its multiple layers of meanimg whilst still keeping an interesting surface-level plot; unchallengable no 1)

2. Lost in translation (dont really care about the story too much, but the cinematic shots of tokyo and the edits are unbeatable)

3. Whiplash (because I watched it recently and thought it had some of greatest character portaits Ive ever seen)

 

[mattoman]

American Made, We're The Millers, Hangover trilogy (3 movies technically in that one, but they are so repetitive so "basically" a one movie)
I'm a big comedy guy

 

[fleischmaschina]

1. Fight club
2. True detective season 1
3. Breaking bad

I know last two arent movies, but i allowed myself. There are others that also come realy close but these 3 win for me. I reeeealy love Vince Gilligan's way of directing, also in better call saul, that slow almost frozen scenes from time to time where nothing is happening, I just loved that.

1. The Machinist (2004)
2. I Stand Alone (1998)
3. Monster (2003)

In no order:

Spider-Man 2
