Title: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: akiratubo on July 03, 2003, 11:13:43 AM The Terminator
RoboCop Predator Nausicaa Warriors of the Wasteland Those are five examples of movies I consider to be absolutely perfect. Nothing -- nothing -- could improve upon them and I never, ever, get tired of them. What are some of yours? Post Edited (07-03-03 11:13) Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: Neville on July 03, 2003, 11:20:32 AM Certainly not many:
Chinatown Blade Runner Apocalypse Now Redux Spirited Away Robocop The outlaw Josey Whales Conan the Barbarian Cop 2001 Unforgiven The bulk of my favourite list are movies that are *almost* perfect, like Minority Report, LA Confidential or most Eastwood westerns.

Halloween Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: raj on July 03, 2003, 11:53:32 AM Star Wars (the original -- it could stand by itself, without the sequels/prequels/nightquels)
Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: Bernie on July 03, 2003, 12:21:04 PM King Kong
A Night at the Opera The Producers Casablanca (yeah, yeah, I know, but there's a reason it wins all those damn polls!) Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: jmc on July 03, 2003, 12:34:57 PM Night of the Living Dead
The Godfather probably The Exorcist..... Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: Brock on July 03, 2003, 04:41:35 PM Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle
Slackers Charade Troll 2 Close, but not quite: Empire Records, About a Boy, Almost Famous Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: Jim H. on July 03, 2003, 04:44:15 PM The only one that springs to mind is the Godfather and Jaws. Both are flawless, or as close to it as possible. The Godfather isn't really a favorite of mine though.
Title: None Post by: Ash on July 03, 2003, 06:24:02 PM Since humans are not perfect....and films are made by humans.....no film is perfect.
Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: The Burgomaster on July 03, 2003, 10:30:36 PM There are imperfections in every movie. No exceptions.
My list of "near perfect" movies includes: THE GODFATHER THE GODFATHER, PART II CASABLANCA THE TEN COMMANDMENTS BEN-HUR TAXI DRIVER THE FRENCH CONNECTION THE MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE SHANE Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: Goon on July 03, 2003, 11:03:05 PM The Wizard of Speed and Time
-------ooo-'U'-ooo-------Kilroy was here. Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: Vermin Boy on July 03, 2003, 11:47:20 PM Pee-Wee's Big Adventure.
Also, not really the same thing, but Plan 9 From Outer Space is the "perfect" b-movie. Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: Dunners on July 04, 2003, 12:21:00 AM Silence of the lambs
The castle of cagliostro Army of darkness( ultimate B flick :D, IMO) The Terminator X-2 Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: Mr_Vindictive on July 04, 2003, 08:10:34 AM Fight Club-By far the best film in my collection. A strange story with a strange nameless hero. Great stuff!
Se7en-Can anyone see that I like Fincher's stuff? American Beauty-Awesome film. I was AMAZED by this film when it first came out. Love, hate, humor, heart. Bowling For Columbine-I can honestly say this film is perfect. Having been a Michael Moore fan for years, this flick is his crowning achievment. Moore can perfectly mix humor with scenes of desperation and pain like no other. Ghost World-Saw this film about a year ago when it first came out on DVD. Watched it last night and remembered just how great it was. Not exactly perfect, more near perfect. Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Duck Soup A Night at the Opera Casablanca Bridge on the River Kwai In my humble opinion Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: superdude on July 04, 2003, 05:32:32 PM Clerks, I enjoy every minute of that movie, it's a funny collection of conversations, not much could make it better in my opinion.
Silence of he Lambs, Hopkinds at his best. Psycho, sick twisted film, it was before it's time and the scenes and stories in it have been spoofed by so many cartoons, films, and shows, very influencial. Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect.

Princess Mononokee Vampire Hunter D:Blood lust Alien Aliens The Thing(remake) The Score The Terminator 1 and 2 Predator Shawshank Redemption The Green Mile Saving Private Ryan Full Metal Jacket 28 days later Dawn of the Dead Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: JohnL on July 05, 2003, 06:20:55 PM >The Terminator
I like The Terminator, but I don't know if I'd call it perfect. The scene of Arnold operating on his eye was an obvious puppet and the full-figure shots of the endoskeleton at the end were obvious stop motion. Title: Citizen KANE! Post by: Dunners on July 06, 2003, 12:06:52 AM I KNEW I forgot something, THIS is the perfect film :)
Title: Re: Movies you consider perfect. Post by: NiGHTS on July 06, 2003, 02:04:58 AM Perfect flims? Eep.
I'd say Nausicaa, but after having read the manga, I can't in good concience reccomend it as perfect. It's merely 'Incredibly good'. Hmm. A Night At the Opera springs to mind, as does The Godfather, blah blah blah. I'm gonna throw up a couple lesser-known ones. The Perfect Action Movie: John Woo's 'The Killer'. Good God I love this movie. Perfect Movie to watch just for the flying sequences: Porco Russo. Perfect Movie Involving a John Denver Song: WHisper of the Heart Perfect film, like no other, no parralells on this Earth: Backdoor sluts 9. |
