Dog Day Afternoon.

Brilliant film.

I can't do this.......

There's no way I can pick just ten and post a definitive list on here - I'm going to have to think about it and post them as they occur to me.

And there may well be more than ten......

Marathon Man.

Is it safe?

Very annoyed with myself for forgetting Dog Day Afternoon.

It's always the case DC!

This thread reminds me that there are a lot of great films out there. I would definitely add Life of Brian to my top ten and possibly Get Carter. I suspect most have done what I did and include films that are not only generally rated as good but films that have a particular meaning or memory for me.

Definitely good memories some of them.  Particularlu the godfather.  My uncle sent me the vhs boxset whilst i was doing my gcses and i watched them while i was supposed to be revising.  During watching the second one with a girl i went to school with she got bored and decided to get frisky.  While she did i carried on watching the film

And i wonder why i got a u in physics, well i was stoned too

Too many good films - so I'm just gonna put 10 films I like

Poltergeist 2
IT
Shawshank
Terminator
Back to the Future
Alien
Predator
Jaws
Rocky
X-Men

Shawshank redemption 
Lucky number slevin 
Usual suspects
Pulp fiction
Reservoir dogs

Can't think of any more at the minute but my guilty pleasure is tremors.

Most films with denzel Washington. 

Training Day, Deja Vu, Man on fire and the taking of Pelham 1,2,3. Travolta was good in Pelham as well.

I'm gonna watch the equaliser soon as well, hoping it will be good.

You won't be disappointed, mate.

Saw it the other week and it's a decent film.

Man on Fire's one of my all time favourites too - brilliant film.

Watched 'One flew over the cuckoo's nest' again last night.
Classic.

3 off the top of my head that are magnificent...

No Country For Old Men
Münich
There Will Be Blood

Pan's Labyrinth - absolute corker.

If you've not already seen it, The Devil's Backbone is another Del Toro masterpiece.

Highly recommend it.
