good movies

04Sep07

I don’t know why but I have been on a movie kick recently.  I think it’s because I spend a lot of time in Evanston and there is actually a decent video rental place up there  (big ups to After Hours Rentals on Foster Rd, right by the El stop.

Anyway, based on a conversation I just had with my roommate about the best movies ever made, I’ve decided to update my list of all time favorite movies.  And I’ve decided I need to find my list of flicks that I really need to watch that I jotted down in OneNote before I switched laptops.

Here’s my current list of all time awesomest movies:

  1. Gattaca
  2. 12 Monkeys
  3. Brazil
  4. The lives of others (Das Leben Der Anderen)
  5. Gandhi
  6. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
  7. Cidade De Deus
  8. Ran
  9. Shawshank Redemption
  10. Thirteen Days
  11. La vita è bella
  12. Monty Python (Holy Grail)
  13. Se7en

I realize a lot of these may be weird to the average person.  especially Brazil.  don’t judge me.  No, really. stop judging.

Earlier I saw this profiling tool that told you what type of person you are based on the movies you like.  I can’t seem to find it anymore.  If anyone can point me to the right direction, I’d appreciate it.
