okay, this is not a favorite movie but one i've seen recently based on the master Philip Dick book A Scanner Darkly. there was a part there where they were having this really wasted conversation (i'm sure we are all familiar about how these conversations are  ) about this 18-speed bike. robert downey, jr thought he hit the jackpot when some guy on the street sold him this bike for $60 and woody said it's not an 18-speed bike because there are only 8 gears on it and winona rider said it looks a lot like her neighbor's bike which was stolen a few days ago   and keanu reeves was just sitting in the background  the scene just seemed so classic to me like Dazed and Confused, Philip K. Dick style

these aren't really my top three either but these are what immediately comes to mind.. I am Sam - simply heartwarming, loved Dakota's acting here Finding Neverland - makes me reminisce about my childhood Mean Girls - my all time favorite 'gay movie'

i absolutely love resident evil and underworld bec. these films have really strong and pretty lead characters. i also like fifty first dates, i like the idea that a guy will find ways to make you fall in love with him everyday plus it's an adam sandler movie so it's pretty hilarious at times.

same here. i also like adam sandler's movies, never fails to make me laugh. the mere sight of his egg head and his weird voice is enough reason to laugh. 50 First Dates is among my favorite romantic comedies

i think adam sandler is really funny and all of his films have really good scripts. have you watched spanglish? it's not the typical sandler film bec. it's serious but the movie is great.

yeah, i saw it in HBO. that was the one where he was a chef and they had a Mexican housekeeper right?
didn't realize it until now.. it wasn't a typical Sandler movie. twas less comedic than usual. but it was good nonetheless.
btw, one thing i notice about Adam Sandler's movies is that his fellow comedians almost always have a small role like Rob Schneider. likewise, Sandler appears in Schneider's movies

yeah, you remember the famous line: "you can do it!"? it always works... i like rob's character in fifty first dates, it's so funny... he's also good but his films don't do that well in terms of ticket sales but people remember him bec. of that line...

funny, i started this post but couldn't come up with just three favorite movies.
i also like indies - "being john malkovich" is hilarious!!!!
i like crash, boogie nights, a bunch of tarantino's (except the kill bill series - i dunno, too much publicity ruined it. still love how he directed them, though).
