Default Greatest Movie Ever?
Well whats your favorite? Choose 1 only though.

We could get some nominations, then vote on it maybe.

Personally for me its Pulp Fiction.

Some others:

V for Vendetta
Schindler's List (well worth the 3 odd hours)

Enemy at the Gates
Bourne Identity
Band of Brothers (all of them)

Definately the Star Wars saga, closely followed by the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

AVP????

TEAM AMERICA???

You gotta be friggin' kidding! I thought the title was "Greatest Movie Ever?", not just films you like. It seems several can't read either, as the thread creator stated "Pick One".

As a REAL movie buff I can't pick just one. If it is to be judged on how prepared I am to watch the same movie repeatedly in one year then.....Still Crazy, but don't take this as the "Greatest Movie Ever".

Ok.. heres the secret.

Step 1 - Get your mates round. Must have adequate seating.

Step 2 - Apply booze liberally. Let sit for 30minutes.

Step 3 - Watch Team America.

For full shock value it must be the unedited overseas version with the uncut puppet sex scene.
