    Big Trouble? I love that movie! Although it won't make my top five, sorry.

    Mine in line for the best? The Brave Little Toaster, The Matrix, Pulp Fiction, The Original Solaris, and Star Trek II: Teh Wrath Khan.

    Does that count as a movie?
    If so my top three are easily:
    1:The trials of life
    2:Life in the freezer
    3:The life of mammals

    By the way, just out of curiousity, have you seen "the trials of life" spurious? I would have to say its my favourite, not necassarily the best, they are all equally as good, but it addresses my favourite subject.

    As for actual movie movies;
    Fucking amal
    Kids
    Boogie nights
    Martin & Orloff
    and more I can't think of.

    I tend to be very harsh with movies and label them as crap if I see flaws but you just made me realise that if I'm honest with myself there are a hell of a lot of movies out there that I enjoy watching regardless of their shortcomings
