Name 'em! Here's my top 3

1. Heat
2. Scarface
3. Reservoir Dogs

My avatar has everything to do with this scene


But you had to play it cool, had to do it your way
Had to be a fool, had to throw it all away

Tough question but I'd probably have to go with:

1. Kill Bill (consider both volumes one film)
2. Scarface
3. Scream (1996)

You also got Scarface. Jesus H it's basically my list lol. I was sure you'd put Tarantino up in there though because you talk more about him than almost anybody I know

I love that you put Scream up in there. That's a unique choice, but I totally understand it. Favorite movies don't always mean best

Yeah Tarantino and Scorsese with Goodfellas also had an impact on me but I can only pick three lol.

Scream had such a huge impact on me. Horror is my favorite genre and this film revitalized it at a time when it was dead. Not to mention the reveal of who the killer(s) were totally got me (although unfortunately, it's becoming predictable now within the franchise).

My favorite Dutch films

2) Soldaat van Oranje (1977)
3) Amsterdamned (1988)

This year there will be a sequel of the latter.
Here is the first one.

Im going to give two lists one for Best and Favourite

Best

GF 1-2
The Good ,The Bad and The Ugly
Goodfellas


Fav

Gladiator
Forrest Gump
Full Metal Jacket

Fav list could change everyday tbf, so hard to pick.

The Mafia Is Not Primarily An Organisation Of Murderers.
First And Foremost,The Mafia Is Made Up Of Thieves.
It Is Driven By Greed And Controlled By Fear.

Between The Law And The Mafia, The Law Is Not The Most To Be Feared

"What if the Mafia were not an organization but a widespread Sicilian attitude of hostility towards the law?"

Great lists. As I said, favorite does not always mean best. I always say that No Country For Old Men is the best movie I've ever seen. Every frame is just perfect. The Shawshank Redemption also deserves to be mentioned in this context.

Favorite and best is def not the same for example The Godfather part I and II are great, but Apocalypse Now is retrospectively considered one of the greatest films ever made; it has been assessed as Coppola's masterpiece.

Oof...difficult to just limit myself to three, but I guess;

1) Apocalypse Now
2) Mulholland Drive
3) The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)

If I'd make it a Top 10, I'd probably round it out with;

4) Once Upon a Time in the West
5) Pulp Fiction
6) The Godfather
7) Die Hard
8) The Thing
9) Reservoir Dogs
10) Lost Highway

Anyway, here's an overview of movies I've rated the full score;

Great list. I like that you're a David Lynch fan. I'm a big fan of Blue Velvet, Wild At Heart and Mulholland Drive. Loved Twin Peaks too
