Bored. So thought I'd list five movies I think everyone should see, and see if anyone else had comment/addiitons to the list.

In no particular order:

Ink
Galaxy Quest
Hamlet (Branugh version)
The Importance of Being Ernest
Rashamon(Silent version)

Cool idea! Here are 5 I would recommend that everyone watch at some point. I wouldn't say that they're my favourite films... well some of them are, but I just think that they're all brilliant.

1)Medicine Man - Sean Connery at his best Wink
2)Angel Heart - v. disturbing, so not for the faint of heart
3)The Changeling - the 1980 film with George C Scott, not to be mistaken for Changeling with Angelina Jolie
4)Lost Boys - So not your usual crappy vampire movie, and the soundtrack is awesome!
5)Orphan - Hadn't even heard of this when I bought it, but it really is very good.

I too thought this was a very fun idea to do, so I thought I would recommend some of my own.

The Silence of the Lambs is brilliantly chilling and has a really cool twist at the end!

The Lovely Bones, in my opinion, is a very underrated and is far better than it is made out to be. Stanley Tucci plays a hateful character! Mad

Disneys Beauty and the Beast is just wonderful. Love

Apocalypto is a really well made film. Mel Gibson is a much better director than actor Laf But tbh he is brilliant in signs!

And Finally...

SHAWN OF THE DEAD!!! I love this film. It is frickin' awesome! Must see!

Inception (SO EPIC)
Lord of the Rings (ALL THREE are necessary for life)
Fallen (you will never be able to hear the song "Time is on my side!" without thinking of this movie)
Dark Knight
The Godfather

Best movies ever.
