    I have had enough of the worst movies, time to take a detour. Just like the worst movies of all time thread, what are the best movies of all time?

    The Dark Knight has to be up there. Best villain performance I've ever seen. I found Tenacious D and the pick of Destiny to be particularly awesome too. Not sure if I'd class it as one of the best films ever but it's one of the most awesome. Some more contenders include:

    The Green Mile
    Forest Gump
    The Matrix
    Back to the Future part II
    Finding Nemo
    The Lion King
    Aladdin
    South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut
    Scarface
    Pulp Fiction
    Fight Club

    If anyone says Anchor Man I will personally come round their house and sow cress into their carpets until they withdraw their statement.

    I'm not sure if I'm trolling or not.

    Is that Laputa as in the Studio Ghibli film?

    I think Leon might be on my list somewhere, and I'm not sure whether I repeatedly watch the LOTR trilogy for my own enjoyment or to annoy people by reciting whole scenes at pertinent moments.

    Yeah, the Ghibli film. Hmm, Leon should be there too. To the edit button.
