And add me to the list of people not fond of Shyamalan. As DLibrasnow points out, "you knew within the first couple of minutes of (THE SIXTH SENSE) that the Willis' character was dead" - they could have hidden that "twist" much better.

Here we go again...

Mission: Impossible 2
Identity
28 Days Later
The Incredibles

Odd, I don't think of myself as a big Crowe fan, but I picked three of his movies. Never thought about that before.

[Tarl_Cabot]

I prefer 'Proof of Life' and 'Master and Commander' to his more heralded film, Gladiator.

I don't know why I'm posting under this topic, because I've hardly seen any films from the past three years since I have been too busy working on my college degree which thankfully is ending. Anyway I'll try and make some list.

1. The Lord of the Rings Trilogy
2. Lost In Translation
3. A Beautiful Mind
4. Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
5. Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
6. About Schmidt
7. Spider-Man 2
8. Adaptation
9. Sea Biscuit
10. Monster



Honorable mentions: Master and Commander, The Hours, Open Range, Gangs of New York, Somethings Gotta Give, Passion of the Christ, In America, and the Harry Potter series(especially Chamber of Secrets-god it's awful leaving those pictures off my list).

I've gotten some new films on DVD which I have not seen like Sideways, Closer, Elf, and House of Flying Daggers. So maybe if I like these films, I will add them to my list.

Edited by rogermoore007, 21 June 2005 - 01:13 PM.

[Qwerty]

2. The Bourne Identity

Good choice. I still think this film is better than Supremacy.

They're both great, but I loved Joan Allen in Supremacy; that is one of the factors that makes it more of my favorite than Identity.
