Robin Hood: Men in Tights.

That's my absolute favourite.

Some movies that come close behind it are: Office Space, Hot Shots, Naked Gun, Baseketball, Frequency, Falling Down, The Princess Bride... and lots of other funny movies. :D
 
In no particular order...

The Shawshank Redemption
The Green Mile
The Empire Strikes Back
Memento
Star Trek: First Contact
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Raiders of the Lost Ark
Minority Report

I can't decide between them.
 
Favorite as in what? A movie I particularly admire for some specific quality, a movie with the most worth-while central message, a most beautifully filmed movie, deepest or shallowest movie, most fun or funny movie, a movie I most enjoyed first watching, a movie I enjoy repeatedly watching...?

Picking a single "favorite" is well-nigh impossible. Even picking a single movie for a specific category is difficult, but to name a movie I most enjoy repeatedly watching (what I most associate with "favorite") I would have to say Barry Lyndon for its stunningly filmed scenes (including, but not limited to, it's revolutionary candle-lit interiors), its subtle dry and satirical humor, well chosen musical score, messages on futile class struggle and worlds built on lies, not terribly deep but still present subtext covering Barry's rise and fall, and much criticized but in truth excellent casting. I also admire it for being a well-done screen adaptation of a book. Getting down even further, my two favorite scenes are Bryan's death (the best dramatic performance Ryan O'Neal has ever given, in my opinion) and Lady Lyndon's signing of Barry's annuity (it speaks volumes about the situation and feelings of those involved without saying a single word, I believe the most desirable quality a movie scene can possess).
 
Monty Python:
- Holy Grail
- The Meaning of Life
- The Life of Brian

The Matrix
Spiderman
Star Wars Episodes: 4-6

can't think of the rest

Harrison Ford AND Star Trek?

You're so much like my mother that it scares me :eek:
 
Anyone like documentaries?

I usually hate them, but after I saw Porn Star: The Legend of Ron Jeremy I began to change my mind.

I really suggest you see it.
 
Sigh... Golly Dusty. You NEED to see daylight sometime before the autumnal equinox.
:( again.

If I weren't thoroughly opposed to the new smilies I'd use a crying face... and maybe Santa Claus, but just because he's cute.
 
Not in this order, but my favorites are:

- Mad Max 2 aka The Road Warrior
- Scarface
- Tremors (1, 2 and 3)
- Clerks
- Mallrats
- Half Baked
- Office Space
- Fast And The Furious
- Blade
- The Crow
- Space Balls
- Spiderman
- Arachniphobia
- Tremors
- Dogma
 
Like Nick, pretty much anything ever made by Kevin Smith.

Plus I loved Detroit Rock City, the Dead Poets Society, Half Baked (They Killed Killer, B!!), Wayne's World, and Training Day.
