| I hate getting non-personal e-mails (which means I just may have to actually reply to some email-pals... any how...) but I love getting the weekly newsletter in my inbox on Friday nights from the lovely down-to-earth people at Empire Magazine. This week they challenged us to think of our favourite top ten films. Here are mine listed below for the next... well... until I remember a fabulous film I forgot. My greatest movies of all time are... | |
| 1 | The Shawshank Redemption Hope is right up there on my value system. |
| 2 | The Silence of the Lambs Will always give me the shivers. Fantastic everything. |
| 3 | The Sixth Sense I just adore the attention to detail to the best plot twist I've ever seen. |
| 4 | Kiss Kiss Bang Bang The snappiest script I've ever watched in motion with a stellar cast. |
| 5 | Sunset Blvd. The best obsession based film setting the perfect tone in every scene. |
| 6 | The Matrix I still like chunky boots and black leather coats nearly a decade on. |
| 7 | Ocean's Eleven Probably the film I've watched the most. Best use of characters and dialogue with the perfectly paced plot. |
| 8 | Galaxy Quest Every time I watch a sci-fi film or series, I think of this film. |
| 9 | Forrest Gump One of my first sentimental favourites. |
| 10 | A League of Their Own Best example of a fantastic lead female character with a perfect mix of drama and light comedy. |

Excellent number 1 and 2! They're in my top 30 somewhere! Must enter my list to Empire as shameful as it is!
Here is a rundown of my top 10 movies:
1. Stranger Than Fiction
This movie appeals to the writer in me.
2. The Matrix
I love the exploration of potential that this movie revolves around.
3. Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith
I love the Jedi and this SW movie is the most emotionally charged for me.
4. Batman Begins
Dark and insanely realistic for a superhero movie. Again, I love the exploration of self in this movie.
5. K-PAX
Thought provoking in every way and depending on how you view the world 2 possible endings.
6. Mirrormask
Simply put, it's like wathcing my dreams on film.
7. Rear Window
Hitchcock is a genius and I love Jimmy Stewart, such a thrilling movie!
8. Gattaca
This movie appeals to me because it shows people pushing their limits and not being constrained by the world.
9. Transformers
I think I like this movie so much because it has everything in it, action, comedy, drama, and BID ROBOTS!
10. Meet the Robinsons
Best animated film I have ever seen. 'Keep Moving Forward!'
Your number one is my number one as well. ♥♥♥♥
A very interesting top 10, some very good choices! I look forward to reading your blog in the future x
