    Too many movies to narrow to top 5...

    1. Any Clint Eastwood movie
    2. Any Robin Williams movie
    3. All of the recent LOTR movies although the final movie was not as well made in my opinion.
    4. Any pornography.
    5. All Naked Gun movies.

    That about sums up SOME of my favorites.

    Pornography Rocks!

    Especially the stuff with animals in it.
    My horse likes those the best!

    Blade Runner is such an over-praised movie. i mean it has a meaningful message at the end, but the movie itself is dull, boring and at no stage does it even attempt to lift itself over the mundane. does anyone agree? i mean movies like The Fifth Element are whacked and only appeal to certain tastes, but at least it tried to be different.....Blade Runner was barely average

    Hah!

    Have you seen the Rob Zombie music video for "Living Dead Girl"? It's basically a four-minute remake of Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.

    And what about Eraserhead?

    Hadn't seen the Rob Zombie video... didn't he do something modeled after Clockwork Orange as well? I seem to remember something with the Durango. As for Caligari, what can I say... I have a near-fetish when it comes to silent German Expressionist films.

    <i>Eraserhead</i> was a close call -- probably a tie with <i>Blue Velvet</i> for me. <i>Eraserhead</i> certainly does win out in the cult classic department, especially considering how much I paid for my copy.

    Obviously, it would be much easier for me to name my top five directors rather than films.

    Yeah, he did a song for the soundtrack for the Rollerball remake, and he got the original Milk Bar set.
