Day 1 - Movies
By EightBitWarrior 7 Comments
As a ground rule for all these lists, this is solely 100% my opinion. I'm not trying to say this is the definitive top 10 (anything) list, nor am I saying I'm right. These are just my personal favorites.
With that out of the way, here are my top 10 favorite movies. To get on this list, it had to be a movie that I can and have watched over and over, and could enjoy even if I popped in right now. Let's get going...
10. The Sandlot
This is just one of the classic movies that has a special "thing" about it. The way the narration carries over it, and the actors look and act, just makes it one of those feel good movies that I always go back to from my childhood.
9. What About Bob?
The movie that solidified Bill Murray as a genius for me. Ghostbusters, Shmostbusters. What About Bob? was the real deal for me, and made me die laughing, and still does, over and over again.
8. Dumb and Dumber
Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels were just incredible in this movie. Masterwork in acting, absolutely hilarious delivery, and many memorable parts.
7. The Cable Guy
What? Jim Carrey was the man. Or... is it Ricky Ricardo?
6. Falling Down
What, not a comedy? This movie is the shit, and Michael Douglas doesn't take any from anybody.
5. School of Rock
What? I'll be honest: I'm not a fan of Jack Black, but the way he acts in this movie is just amusing, and I find myself watching this one from time to time.
4. Christmas Vacation
This movie makes me sad that you just don't see any chevy chase movies anymore... or good ones at least. Fuckin' epic:
3. Home Alone
Anyone that grew up in the 80s and 90s should know this movie. John Hughes you will be missed. Here's the only decent clip I could find, and it's a user montage with music over it. Sorry, they must be sticklers about footage of this movie:
2. Anchorman
Will Ferrell is very hit and miss with me, but when he's on, he hits a home run. This movie is both ridiculously ridiculous, and legendary. for a movie not really all that old, that's something. Here's some amusing clips of Steve Carell:
and without further ado, the movie that I enjoy the most, and also makes me laugh the most...
1. Planes, Trains, and Automobiles
Many people I know have not seen this movie, which is a shame because the dynamics between Steve Martin and John Candy are just absolutely hilarious and genius. Even if you don't like Steve Martin (the main reason most people didn't want to watch this movie), he's amazing in this movie. Trust me, do yourself a favor and watch this one if you like comedies at all.
So there you have it. Yeah, mostly comedies... but what can I say, I'm a goofy guy and I love to laugh.
Come back tomorrow to see my top 10 favorite TV shows!
Later.
