Darth Pazuzu's Favorite Movies of All Time
 
Note the title: That's favorite movies of all time, not best. I'm certainly not about to claim that any of the movies on my list of all-time favorites can qualify as the best of all time. (My #1 pick would most definitely inspire raised eyebrows and double- or triple-takes, if not outright ridicule.) But they are the ones with the most - for lack of a better word - resonance to me personally. The movies near the top of my list are the ones that I'm most likely to pop into my Blu-ray player when I'm in the mood to watch a film.

Here's my (tentative) plan: I'm going to list my favorite movies in groups of ten. And no, at this point, I don't really know how far down the list I'm going to go! I imagine at some point later in the future I might be giving individual reviews to the films one at a time. But not right now. I think I'll wait.

So now... without durther afoo... :laugh: Here is:
DARTH PAZUZU'S TOP 10 FAVORITE MOVIES OF ALL TIME!

"One: People aren't wearing enough hats. Two: Matter is energy. In the universe there are many energy fields which we cannot normally perceive. Some energies have a spiritual source which act upon a person's soul. However, this 'soul' does not exist ab initio as orthodox Christianity teaches; it has to be brought into existence by a process of guided self-observation. However, this is rarely achieved owing to man's unique ability to be distracted from spiritual matters by everyday trivia."

@Darth Pazuzu, You and I have very different tastes in movies, but you have a few movies on your list that I like.


#020 - STAR TREK: FIRST CONTACT (1996) - This isn't my favorite Star Trek movie, as I prefer the TOS trilogy (ST II, ST III, and ST IV), but it's a good movie.

#025 - VERTIGO (1958) - This is top tier Hitchcock.

#028 - TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY (1991) - This is my favorite of the Terminator movies.

#030 - GHOSTBUSTERS (1984) - This is always a great movie to watch when I'm looking for a fun comedy.

#043 - STAR WARS EPISODE V: THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK (1980) - One of the best of the Star Wars movies.

#052 - DUEL (1971) - An early Spielberg classic that showed us how much potential he had, and then he proved it with his later movies.

#055 - HEATHERS (1989) - A bit dark for my taste, but still a fun movie thanks to Christian Slater.

#057 - POLTERGEIST (1982) - One of the few horror movies that I love.

Jacob's Ladder feels like it was made just for me. It hits ALL the right notes. That movie was the reason I checked out all the Adrian Lyne movies... and to my sore disappointment, the rest were all sexual thrillers or romance movies.

Thank you very much for the kind comment! :D I arrange my lists of favorites in groups of ten, and quite frequently there tend to be many thematic threads woven through each group, even though there is otherwise a fair amount of variety. Take my two most recent posts, for example: The films listed in #81-90 seem to focus on totalitarianism, dystopia, paranoia, survival, conformity vs. rebellion, war and lamentation. While the films listed in my most recent post, #91-100, deal with murder, psychosis, toxic masculinity, masks and shifting identity, selective memory, etc. And if you stretch things enough, you can find a lot of overlapping themes, ideas, subjects and subtexts woven throughout each group of ten. Sometimes this is deliberate, but a lot of times it's instinctive. Quite honestly, if I actually attempted to make a list of favorite movies without recourse to such pretensions, I'd end up with an impractical clusterf*** of multiple ties! :lol: At any rate, I hope it makes things more interesting, at least...

And BTW... Hello again, everybody! It's been quite a while now since I've posted on this thread, I believe almost a month. I know that I haven't been participating in any of the game threads or anything else lately, but there's a reason for this absence: I had posted a similar Favorite Movies thread on the Classic Rock Forums 2 (CRF2) website, but when that site went down and kaput, I had to start all over again from scratch! So I took a pen and paper - rather old-fashioned, I know - and wrote down the titles of all the movies that I owned on DVD, Blu-ray and 4K which were stacked up all over my apartment in no particular order. Then I posted and gradually refined this Movie Collection list on another thread on this very website (if you want to check it out). Because if I was going to post lists of my favorite movies and take it past the #100 mark, I needed to a list to consult and have that information at my disposal. Quite frankly, I was starting to get stuck on #81-90 because I couldn't quite remember how the sequence went, and I thought that putting together a complete listing of everything in my collection would jog my memory. But now that that whole business is more or less taken care of (although I still need to finish appending the month and day to each year of release on the list), I'm free to work on my Favorite Movies list and maybe possibly even participate on other threads.

The theme idea sounds interesting.

About them damn ties in ranking movies are one of the reasons why I don't rank them and also the movie you rank like #34 can be your #30 the next day so it's hard to keep a ranked list of top movies. For my list I just keep listing movies and almost up to 150 movies. I have a thread about it you should check it out sometime.[/quote]

This time around, the operative themes seem to be: Revenge, obsession, vigilantism, criminality, justice and the law, personal resiliency, survival, the membrane between life and death, demons (literal and personal), the pushing of boundaries (scientific and personal). Hopefully I'm not underscoring too much here! It's all open to interpretation. Feel free to read whatever you want into it! ;)

This one's quite the grab bag, thematically speaking.

The movies near the top of my list are the ones that I'm most likely to pop into my Blu-ray player when I'm in the mood to watch a film.

Here's my (tentative) plan: I'm going to list my favorite movies in groups of ten. And no, at this point, I don't really know how far down the list I'm going to go! I imagine at some point later in the future I might be giving individual reviews to the films one at a time. But not right now. I think I'll wait.

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Favorite Movies of All Time
 
Does anybody remember The Next Day, the next-to-last David Bowie album, released in 2013?

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

At the time, David Bowie did no interviews in support of the album, opting instead to keep a low profile and let the music do the talking. However, during an online correspondence with a writer named Rick Moody, when Moody requested for some information on the subject matter of the songs, he gave a list of 42 words. This was interpreted as a kind of key code for understanding the songs on the album, or as Moody described it, "a sort of work flow diagram." Each successive group of three words corresponded to a song on the album. For example, the first three words correspond to the opening title track: "Effigies / indulgences / anarchist", while the first single, Where Are We Now?, matches up with the words "Mauer / interface / flitting". The words "Crusade / tyrant / domination" correspond with the song If You Can See Me, and the final three words "Tragic / nerve / mystification" match up with the closing number Heat.

What, pray tell, does all this have to do with my ongoing lists of favorite movies?

Simple. For the last couple of posts, before each list, I've listed many of the different overlapping subjects and themes that the different movies within each group of ten share. Well... Howzabout I try something a little more interesting? ;) Y'know, like the 42-word key code that Bowie gave the writer Rick Moody to explain the themes and ideas of the songs on The Next Day?

So here's the deal: Instead of three words per song (totaling 42), as given by Bowie, I'll give a list of five songs per movie (totaling 50)! And given that the subject matter, themes and subtexts of the movies has a tendency to overlap, so does the applicability of the words. Meaning that even though each movie will be given its own set of five, any of those words could also potentially refer to other movies. Also, there will be a kind of "blending" from one set of five to another. In theory, that ought to make all the words resonate with each other and light the whole thing up like a Christmas tree. (Provided I'm that good, of course! :D)

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Favorite Movies of All Time
 
I just watched Strangers on a Train last month. I adored it. It was very freaky, beautifully written and boasted one of the most thrilling climaxes I've ever experienced. My only problem is that our leading lady needs a little more character development. She was basically predictable. But that's the ONLY flaw IMO.
