Basically, you can add your favorite movies to your profile.
Also, this was probably done already more than once in this forum, and will end up being a waste of time.

Last, I don't think any movie lover can pick only 10 movies, and say that they're his favorites. You can ask for the 10 movies that made me feel happy... or the 10 movies that made me think most. But 10 fav. movies is not that simple.

I loved Ocean's Eleven, but is it comparable to Apocalypse Now? Which should I include in my fav. list?
Obviously, this won't work.

How about a top-50 movie list?

hi, i'm new. I have the most endless list of fav movies ever. here are some of my best in no particular order.

1. anything by kevin smith
2. empire records
3. terminator 2
4. donnie darko
5. the cure
6. young guns 1&2
7. the matrix
8. tigerland
9. where the day takes you
10. grease

jeez i probably missed out some really obvious ones. enjoy. if ya haven't seen em watch em. oooh and LOTR.

The top 10 movies in your profile doesnt seem to work, maybe that is why he posted.

They had temporarily escaped the factories, the warehouses, the slaughterhouses, the car washes - they'd be back in captivity the next day but now they were out - they were wild with freedom. They weren't thinking about the slavery of poverty. Or the slavery of welfare and food stamps. The rest of us would be all right until the poor learned how to make atom bombs in their basements.
