Wait! Damn, I left off one of my all time favorites: Empire of the Sun (do NOT confuse this with the The Last Emporer). It stars a preteen Christian Bale and John Malkovic. Tells the story of a pampered English child living in China in WWII who has to learn to survive in a concentration camp. Any man who doesn't cry when Christian Bale says "I can't remember what my parents look like" is more man than me. |

Gladiator The Prestige Batman Begins 3:10 to Yuma Saving Private Ryan Forrest Gump Hoosiers Kingdom of Heaven A Few Good Men Anchorman 300 The Patriot Pirates of the Caribbean Remember the Titans Thats pretty random. I don't watch too many movies, but I'm always up to see something epic and heroic. It gets my heart pumping, and I love it. Fuck me, forgot a few: The Departed Rounders Without Limits (love Prefontaine) Damn this list could go forever. |

“He’s always been a guy — maybe to a fault — he would always try to do what I said. That seems like something simple in coaching, but those are the guys I hang my hat on. We’ve had some guys in our program, we had a couple guys that felt I had a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. And they were right — I do have a bias towards E’Twaun Moore. I like guys that go to class, that are academic All-Americans, that come early, that stay late, that love the game of basketball. I am biased towards those guys. And I’m biased towards Rob Hummel. But I’m also biased towards their habits, their work ethic, and how they carry themselves." "I’d take him to the ends of the earth — I’d want him playing for me.” - Bo Ryan on Robbie Hummel

I don't know about it being tops. There are a lot of great westerns, but this has at least got to be close to the top. Great movie. My wife, who hates westerns actually watched the whole thing and then grudgingly admitted that she liked it. |

I've seen it. Very good movie. Not a shoot em up, gunfight every 5 minutes type of western, but still very good. The movie actually manages to make Kevin Costner look like a badass. The beggining of the big gunfight scene where he walks up, asks the dude if he is the one that killed his friend, then casually shoots him in the head. Awesome. |

I personally don't like Westerns, but I did like this one. I saw Open Range, Young Guns, and so on and don't even think I finished watching them. But as a kid, I can remember my dad faithfully watching Bonanza and Gun Smoke. He loved them. :D |

Yeah me too Jaz. He doesn't seem to make a bad movie. What about The Prestige? Another good Bale movie. |

Man Open Range is worth watching just to see Kevin Costner shoot that dude in the head. If you turned it off early, you probably missed the best part. |

I watch too many and like too many movies to have a top 10. The 3 movies I find myself watching over and over again though are "A Few Good Men", "Jerry Maguire" and "Anchorman". You guys can say what you want about Tom Cruise - I think he is more than a little off too- but the man can act, and he makes good movies. |

I agree. He's intense. A Few Good Men is one I could watch over as well, especially the court scene. Jack Nicholson wasn't too shabby either. :cheers: |

He is a great actor indeed. And Will Ferrell/Steve Carrell together are non-stop laughter. |
