List your top 10 movies


RoverRick

Recommended Posts

Oh I forgot "The Sandlot."   Love that movie as well!!

 

I'd include that high on the list if I were compiling 10 favorite family movies. 

 

It's interesting to me that no one has mentioned, "The Wedding Crashers"  I think that movie has great, great moments, but its at least 15 if not 20 minutes too long.  They really didn't need to develope the love interest as much as they did.  But the funny parts are funny, particularly the touch football game.

 

RR thanks for starting this thread, it's a fun one.

Taylor Made Stealth 2 10.5 Diamana S plus 60  Aldila  R flex   - 42.25 inches 

SMT 4 wood bassara R flex, four wood head, 3 wood shaft

Ping G410 7, 9 wood  Alta 65 R flex

Srixon ZX5 MK II  5-GW - UST recoil Dart 65 R flex

India 52,56 (60 pending)  UST recoil 75's R flex  

Evon roll ER 5 32 inches

It's our offseason so auditioning candidates - looking for that right mix of low spin long, more spin around the greens - TBD

I thought he wanted a top 10 in each category not top 10 all time all genres in one list.

I have been away from this thread for a while and love the direction it has taken.  I think my favorite movies are the series movies.  James Bond, Star Wars, Star Trek, Jack Ryan, Jack Reacher (although they have only made one so far, and used the wrong actor) Indiana Jones, superhero flicks.

 

Some of these stories and characters have been around for 40-60 even 80 years, and I am waiting on baited breath for when it comes to my theater.  Some stories are so good, I will rewatch Star Trek the Motion Picture, just to get a running start into the Wrath of Khan and Search for Spock.  What I mean is that even if the movie may not be particularly good, I may rewatch it, just because the story line and characters are so awesome.

I thought I read either by genre or just a top 10 list - I might try my hand at by genre after the Christmas break - everytime I have what I think is a good list someone brings another one up.

 

Rocky?  How could we miss that and I also like the Star trek movies particularly the Wrath of Kahn.  Also Star Wars - I haven't seen any of those come up.

Jack Reacher (although they have only made one so far, and used the wrong actor)

 

False. He made some weird movies for sure. But Top Gun, Mission Impossible 1 and 4, Knight and Day and Jack Reacher are great action movies. Throw in some RDJ Sherlock Holmes and Tony Stark and I don't need to watch anything else, ever again.

Tom Cruise was awesome as Jack Reacher.  The problem is if you read the books, Jack Reacher, is 6'5" tall.  Tom Cruise is not.

Saw are you saying that. Tom Cruise wouldn't be a tall chipper?

They should have done a reverse hobbit to make him taller.

A friend of mine worked at Miramar airport when they filmed top gun. He said cruise was so short, they literally had him standing on boxes to look taller.
