For me, personally, It would be Snatch. It’s such a great movie that I could watch again and again. So many interesting characters and a unique style that sets it apart from so many other movies. There’s just that extra something in that movie
What about you, fellow Lemmites? What is your favourite movie?
The Princess Bride. It has great comedy, action, and romance. It’s influenced my sense of humor and it’s just so much fun.
Sounds interesting, but I need to know if this is a kissing book.
I watched that with my girlfriend who had never seen it. After hyping it up I had a real “just wait it gets funny” feeling the whole time. Not as good as I remember.
I showed it to my fiance and while I ADORED the rewatch he was very meh and I was questioning him as a person. Then one day he asked me to watch it again so he could watch Andre the Giant again. And then, I’m convinced, it spoke to him and showed him the magic. He loved it. Quoted it. And will watch it with me when I have it on.
I really think mindset and willingness to dive into it is a necessity.
God, what a beautiful movie.
I’ve definitely watched it recently and still enjoy it just as much. But also, your sense of humor can change over time so it probably just doesn’t fit what you like anymore.
I’ve been listening to Cary Elwes’ book “As You Wish” on audiobook. I haven’t finished it yet, but i’m loving it so far.
i literally watched this because of this comment. great movie.
The Big Lebowski.
I lie to people about how many times I’ve seen it because I don’t want them to think I’m crazy (if you though about a number, it’s more than that).
Every line of dialogue is simply a masterpiece.My favorite is The Fifth Element. Love it. Another great movie is The Apartment with Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine
Leeloo multipass!
Leeloo Dallas Multipass…Multipass.
The cinematic masterpiece form 1999 starring Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz “The Mummy”
He was handsome, she was hot, great story, action, comedy and a great villain. Classic action/adventure/comedy mix.

Hot Fuzz. Every time you watch it, you discover some new joke or callback.
You must watch this at least once. Of course, it’s for the greater good.
The Greater Good
SHUT IT!
Yarp!
It would have to be Back to the Future. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve rewatched those movies. I also just saw the broadway musical version of it as well. If I had to choose between the three, then it would have to be the second one. There is so much iconic imagery from those movies, and I loved getting to see parts of the first from from different POVs. It has a great mix of many things that people can enjoy.
It’s practically a flawless trilogy in my opinion. It definitely still holds really well and always fun to rewatch!
I caught the musical in London during a visit too! I wasn’t sure if it was good or bad because I was wearing nostalgia glasses the entire time and enjoying.
I have to say, it took me a few mins to mentally get over the fact that these characters I’ve watched so many times before were now singing. Once I got over that, it was a blast for me.
Brazil. Directed by Terry Gilliam, with a great cast including Robert de Niro
Ok, maybe it’s not my all time fav, but it deserves a mention
Def a candidate for all time favorite for me
The Blues Brothers. It has action, comedy, cameos, and some of the best music in any film. I will never tire of watching it.
I just talked up the music in this show to a friend that had Sam & Dave’s “Hold On I’m Coming” pop up on his spotify. So much good music, action and comedy.
This is the one for me. Now I’ll even throw it on for background noise while cooking.
And nazi’s. Illinois nazi’s.
I hate Illinois nazi’s.
Haven’t seen it mentioned yet, Children of Men
What a masterpiece. So bleak and so beautiful.
This is one of my least favourite films. I know it’s a fan favourite, but I just don’t get it
12 angry men
Definitely the best movie compared to all the ones mentioned above!

O Brother where art thou
The music, the pacing, the twists, the characters.
I was having a hard time anyway, but after reading through all the comments, I don’t think I could narrow it down.
If I had to try, it would be, in no particular order:
The Matrix
Princess Bride
Fight Club
Shawshank Redemption
The Boondock Saints
The Incredibles
…
Actually, I can’t narrow it down…lol
The Incredibles is incredible. It is my most watched movie of all time and one of my top 10 quoted.
Where’s my super suit???
5th Element. Multipass. Super Green.
I got to see it as a double feature with Blade Runner.

Top 5 for sure.
Blazing Saddles.
But Snatch and Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels are a really great pair of movies.
Hot Fuzz. I think to me it’s a perfect movie. So much great build up, very funny. Just so good.
I love Shaun of the dead, but I have seen hot fuzz twice and it just doesn’t click for me.
I’m that way but in the other direction. Maybe cuz I’m freaking done with zombies. Still a good movie.
crusty jugglers …
