Hard to tell which are my "all time favourites", but these movies are the ones who've made the most impression on me (in no specific order):

  • The Matrix
  • Fight Club
  • Gladiator
  • Braveheart
  • Batman Begins
  • The Dark Knight
  • Avatar (Yes, I like Avatar, flame me if you must)
  • V For Vendetta
  • Children of Men
  • American History X
  • Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
  • Indiana Jones 1-4

Probably forgot some, but I'm tired and don't really care.

Seriously, though, 5th Element is up there, I can watch it over and over again and it never gets old.


Yes, Bruce Willis looked like a bad ass in the rubber orange tank top. It was a pretty awesome movie, though.

Most of your lists are pretty inclusive of mine. One movie I'm surprised hasn't surfaced would be Gran Torino. Or am I the only one that really liked this movie? Some additions:

Taken
Secondhand Lions
Swordfish
The Count of Monte Cristo
I am Legend

I liked Gran Torino too. Here's my list, of what I can remember. I probably forgot a ton of movies. I attempted a chronological listing but I'm not sure what to place first.

Låt den rätte komma in
Pan's Labyrinth
Blade Runner
A Clockwork Orange
Requiem for a Dream
28 Days Later
Hurt Locker
American History X
Full Metal Jacket
American Beauty

I see some have included tv series, so I'll do the same: (Chronological)
The Wire
Breaking Bad
Rome
Sopranos
