3 Days of The Condor.

It’s a 70’s paranoid thriller with Robert Redford, just an awesome film.

What you think about the Road?

If you don’t include Clint Eastwood: Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Spirited Away, My Cousin Vinny.

If you include Clint Eastwood: The Good the bad the ugly, just a few more dollars, the man with no name and gran Torino.

TV shows: Star Trek: TNG, House MD (specifically season 4), Gilmore Girls.

I can’t stress enough how good season 4 of house is.

Lord of the Rings trilogy, John Wick, Spiderman 1, 2, 3 and the ones with Andrew Garfield. Train to Busan, Shutter Island, Sixth Sense, Back to the Future, Terminator: Judgement Day, The Dark Knight, Joker, Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocal, Pirates of the Caribbean, Now you see me films

Not movie, but shows: Breaking Bad, Barry, Bojack Horseman, The Walking Dead (up until around season 5), Lost (up until season 3)

Ikiru and High and low by Akira Kurosawa.

I have a lot of different favorites but the ones I’ve been thinking about watching lately are “Polyester” and “A Serious Man”. I really like both of those.

I used to always automatically answer Apocalypse Now for this question. I’m not sure anymore, but it’s still a great movie.

Don’t watch the director’s cut. It’s longer and adds nothing of value.

Blade Runner is also up there. Do watch the director’s cut with no narration.

My favorite three movies are Toy Story 3 (for nostalgia reasons), Spirited away and City of god.

I’m willing to concede that Toy Story 3 isn’t that good but the other 2 are amazing movies IMO.

Off the top of my head (after scanning the thread):

• About Time
• Looper
• Nightcrawler
• Dark Knight trilogy
• Your Name (Kimi no Na Wa)
• Suzume

Wreck it Ralph is made with such a love for (classic) gaming and in general being a really good animated movie I love it.

Also The Pirates! In an Adventure with Scientists! Is great and can be rewatched endlessly.

Then again, Idiocracy. Getting less and less funny and more scary as we come closer to that future.

There is no way I can pick one.

I’m going to stop here, there are a lot of countries I didn’t mention, this comment is already long enough. Don’t stop yourself because the film is in another language, there are fantastic films out there.

The Korean version of hellboy was pretty good if you’re in the mood for a mindfucking.

moves my top is the lotr trilogy for series its firefly. still.

That is an impossible question because it depends on so many factors of what’s going on on the particular day that I’m asked.

So instead I’ll give you the three that most often rotate into top spot:

1. Children of Men

2. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

3. LA Confidential
