Cool hand luke is awesome.

Cool Hand Luke is much loved but still very under-rated. It has that central theme of, "just play by the rules and we'll go easy on you -- all you have to do is give up. Just give up your soul."

I am going to try to put these in order too though it'll be tough. It'll also be hard to stop at any particular number so my list may get long.

1. Fight Club
2. Saving Private Ryan
3. The Shawshank Redemption
4. Simon Birch
5. The Sixth Sense
6. Silence of the Lambs
7. Pulp Fiction
8. Memento
9. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
10. American History X
11. Schindler's List
12. Garden State
13. Dr. Strangelove
14. Requiem for a Dream
15. The Godfather

If my list was 25 long I'm pretty sure Donnie Darko would make it, but it'd be close. That might also be because I haven't seen a few movies that'd maybe make the list instead, such as American Beauty or Good Will Hunting (fsuplayer if you read this GWH is still on my to-watch asap list!)

Best ever: probably La Haine.

Best recent: Eternal Sunshine

Close behind:
North by North-West
Godfather
Groundhog Day

Donnie Darko is good, not best ever. People who really think that Fight Club, Rounders, or any of the LOTR films are the best they have ever seen need to stop smoking crack and/or see a lot more films.

I forgot its correct spelling.

I think we need a forty and above Other Other Topics.

Good idea. I was going to respond to this thread, but I couldn't remember which Beach movie had Baron Von Zipper in it.

Quiz Show is a fine, very subtle movie with remarkably good dialogue. Almost everything said in it has two levels of meaning.

Blade Runner

[Niwa]

Agree that Bladerunner is one good movie.
