For me, personally, It would be Snatch. It's such a great movie that I could watch again and again. So many interesting characters and a unique style that sets it apart from so many other movies. There's just that extra something in that movie
What about you, fellow Lemmites? What is your favourite movie?
Lawrence of Arabia - for all-time classics
Aliens - for sci Fi
Evil Dead - for horror
Life of Brian - for comedy
It's impossible to pick a single film across all genres and even then, it was painful to leave out a movie like Pacific Rim, or Young Frankenstein.
For horror? Carpenter's The Thing.
Oh hell yes. I rewatch it every couple years
I prefer Evil Dead for comedy tbh
I've been watching a lot of classics lately and I've never actually seen Lawrence of Arabia. It's kind of intimidating at almost four hours and those older movies are often a slog. Obviously you're gonna say yes because it's one of your favorites, but do you think I should check it out?
I would recommend any movie by David Lean (the director). It's a beautifully shot and beautifully acted epic that they frankly don't make anymore. I couldn't recommend it enough. Peter O'Toole and Omar Sharif are amazing.
