    1). The Sunset Limited (2011) - A H.B.O feature, produced and directed by Tommy Lee Jones. Starring Tommy Lee Jones and Samuel L. Jackson... And no one else! Adapted from a play, the film is set solely in one room and has only two characters. It is genius. Loved every minute of it. Easily my favourite movie of all time. I warn you though; if you need big explosion, female/male nudity, or special effects to keep you interested in a film then this is NOT the movie for you.

    2). Independence Day (1996) - They don't come much more Hollywood than this. America **** Yeah!... This film is cheesy as toasted cheese sandwiches with cheese on top and dipped in cheese. It has big explosions, special effects and a cast like no other. Some of the best speeches and one liners of any movie ever. Also many classic moments. If you like your movie with a bit more Bang! and bit less thinking then this is the one for you... That is not to say it doesn't have its thoughtful moments, !SPOILER ALERT!
    When Rus flies into the City Destroyer over Area51... I used to tear up at that bit when i was a kid.
    !SPOILER ALERT!

    3). All Other Films - I just love 'em so space three on my 'Top 3' list has yet to be filled. This list changes with time of course (Independence Day was, until recently, in the Number1 spot), so eventually third place will fill up but for now it is left open to honour all the films not on the list of so very few.

    A fine choice, a truly entertaining movie. As crazy as the character may be, You have to agree with what he says about fast food places; The burger you get never looks like the one in the picture does. :D

    1.Breakfast Club/Can't Buy Me Love/Stand By Me (these three are on par for me)

    So, if we somehow allow the above three to be counted as 1,

    2. Back to the Future

    3. Superbad

    I find it hard to make lists that are so definite, and this list will change all the time.
