I still can't think of a movie better than Troy (2004).

Wow...this is such an original and fresh thread.

It's a difficult question. I don't actually have a favourite movie. For years, if anyone asked me my favourite movie I would say The Matrix, because it seemed to represent everything I wanted from a film: an intelligent, good looking sci-fi thriller with a twisting plot, plenty of action and a side order of romance and a cool soundtrack. But then came the bloated sequels which seemed somehow to devalue the original movie, and I suppose what you like when you are seventeen is not necessarily what you like when you are older.

At the moment I have Show Me Love (****ing Amal) listed as my top movie, but I would always rather list a top 5, or 10, or preferably 50, than one favourite film. Even my top 5 or 10 I can recognise have flaws, and I would hesitate to say any of them are the best movie of all time, however much I like them.

Did you really, really think this thread hadn't all ready been made before?

So duplicate threads are a big no no, even though they are ubiquitous, on every forum?

Should the best be automatically your favorite?

I second that. Troy falls well short of even being consirded an OK film.

I would say it's between "Pulp Fiction" and "A Clockwork Orange" for me.

Does that mean you like it or don't like it? :confused:

Your favourite isn't automatically the best, you can really like a film while also recognising it probably isn't the best film ever made. But if there is a film that you really can't think of any film better than (even if it is Troy...) and think it is the best film ever made, then I would have thought it would be listed as your favourite film, otherwise there must be something wrong with it to make it not your favourite. If you see what I mean.
