CAN A MOD MOVE THIS TO THE MOVIE FORUM?

it seems that people just don't pay much attention nowadays

Mr Jones · 30th March 2004, 22:14

PM any active moderator at the time next time you want a thread moving, we don't read every thread you know.

randman · 31st March 2004, 01:20

To add to Jones' explanation, you might also take into consideration that this thread was started BEFORE there even was a "Movie and Television" forum.

horse-fly · 31st March 2004, 03:48

i guess i misread that 03 for an o4... touche...

xzxzzx · 5th April 2004, 08:47

Best acted/filmed/etc?

I can think of only one that stands out, The Last Samuri. The cinematography, acting, etc, was impressive.

As for what I would consider the "Five Best Movies of All Time":

LOTR Trilogy (Extended editions) - not really three movies, more like a 12 hour movie in volumes.
The Matrix (The first one, only)
Equilibrium
Star Wars Trilogy (See #1)
Office Space

There are a lot of close contenders, including, but not limited to:

Donnie Darko
Dogma
X-Men 1 & 2
Fight Club
Spider-Man

The Manchurian Candidate (The first one).
Merry Christmas, Mr Lawrence.
The Bridge on the River Kwai.
The Outlaw.
Touch of Evil.
