I love all the people complaining that their personal favorite is not on the list. None of my favorites are there, but since I was asked for my favorite that was on the list, I chose The Great Escape.

I like some of the others as well, but that one is my favorite. From the list.

Shawshank Redemption

From the available choices, I would go with the Shawshank Redemption (the best Stephen King movie adaptation I have ever seen). My favorite movie is actually Silent Hill, but it is not on the list, of course.

-Your mother would be very upset if she saw you doing that Capt'n!
-I thought you were my mother....

Well, it ain't my favourite movie, but on that list.....

for sheer enjoyment, Star Wars is the best movies, 'cause I can see them again, and again, and again....

not to mention Monty Python.....

You left off the "Paris Hilton" video...
Seriously, the LOTR Trilogy is one of my favorites...

The Thin Red Line by far from looking at your list. I have only seen it once many years ago and it touched me so powerfully. Simply unforgetable.

The Lord of the Rings set should have inlcluded all 3 films, as they're all part of the same story, but since it's a radio button thingy, I could only vote for one of them, so I picked Fellowship of the Ring. I actually liked all 3 of the films.

Any special reason why just those films were listed?

Great popcorn movie.

You know, every-so-often, AMC channel drags out the same war movies, plays them to death, but they never seem to add in Run Silent, Run Deep as well.

Star Wars was missing from the list as well. Saw the original back in 1977 about 30+ times (I have it memorized, so I don't need to pop in the DVD, I just play it in my head )

Some titles on the list I have never heared of before (maybe I have seen some but I don't know the names).
I voted for Platoon.
