This is in no way a criticism, i love films, but the main problem with doing this is the time span, many people on this site may never have seen such great films like Casablanca, unless they are movie buffs, equally the older ones may not be interested in some movies that feature in the last year or two. I have a list of 100 movies that i love and can rarely just chose 10, but :

1. Its a Wonderful Life
2. Casablanca
3. Shawshank Redemption
4. Bringing Up Baby
5. The Philadelphia Story
6. Gladiator
7. Stagecoach
8. Seabiscuit
9. Gone With The Wind
10. Saving Private Ryan

Natalie V | Aug 08, 2007

Anyone’s list will be different, it is a matter of individual taste. I personally love the three colours trilogy and ‘Red’ and ‘Blue’ would be on my list from that,
also..,
‘Jean de Florette and Manon de Source’ as one package,
Amelie,
The English Patient,
Reds,
The Pianist,
Downfall,
Howl’s Moving Castle,
Fargo,
and possibly Shawshank, which is one of yours.

I agree with Shawshank Redemption,

and Streetfighter with Charles Bronson.
Both really good films.

Lord of the rings, Starwars BORING (your better off watching full metal alchemist)

1. Saw 1,2,3

1. Casablanca
2. GodFather P.1
3. Apocalypse Now
4. Shawshank Redemption
5. God Father P.2
6. Requiem For A Dream
7. LOTR Return of the king
8. Schindler’s List
9. City of God
10. The Departed

Some of those could be switched around but that is what I think.
On your list I haven’t seen #’s 7,8,10 so i can’t say. I think that cool hand luke is a great movie but i’m not sure if it deserves to be up there. Heat is a very good movie, not a great one. I don’t like On the waterfront but it is a classic. And Return Of The Jedi isn’t a classic in my opinion.

Well, I really like The Assassination of Jesse James soundtrack, which had a unique combination of fiddles and deep brooding guitars that really (in my opinion) characterized the lonely life on the road in Missouri at the time. Love to listen to it while studying.

However, for theatrical based movies, I’d say Moulin Rouge (the newer version) was really great. The catchy, modern take (including plays on Roxanne, All You Need Is Love) with Ewan McGregor’s and Nicole Kidman’s voices. Really catchy stuff, and you’ll be singing the songs in your head for a long time.

500 Days of Summer was noteworthy (Halls and Oats, The Temper Trap, and Mumm-Ra are just some notable bands that were featured).

I’d also like to add in there, almost anything that John Williams of Hans Zimmer made, I’d listen to while studying. They really make a bang-up soundtrack for movies.

Am i the only person who really doesn't see daniel craig as james bond?
I think he’s a brilliant actor and plays the role really well but why have the writers taken away his style and why have they stopped using the music? These last two have just basically been like an english answer to the bourne identity. i mean, at one point in casino royale i saw craig put a suit jacket on a metal hanger. I no its not a big deal but james bond is the epitomy of style and he wouldnt do that its just not bond.
I thought the gadgets were gettng silly so im glad its all been toned down. but i dont feel daniel craig has been given the chance to actually play bond as i see him. weres the style?
when i say style i mean more like his suave cockiness

no definitely not. I don’t know of his acting otherwise but seeing the previews, it’s all wrong. James Bond isn’t supposed to be blond. he doesn’t look or feel like James Bond at all.

What are some good older 'horror' movies?
I mean old from like the 70s to the 90s. Not too old, preferably color movies.
I’ve just become kind of interested in them haha, I like The Hand that Rocked the Cradle, Carrie, and Hellraiser. I’m just not into any current horror, they don’t have very interesting plots. Any suggestions?

Haha I get where you are coming from, and I’m going to state the ones that I personally like, although some are black and white (ill put a star if they are)
The Exorcist
The Wicker Man
The Shining
Psycho*
The Bad Seed*
Don’t Look Now
Childs Play (kinda stupid, but creepy still)

The Exorcist, all the Nightmare on Elm Street movies, Scream. Most of the good ones are from the 90’s in my opinion, but The Exorcist was filmed in 1973 and it’s still one of the scariest I’ve ever seen.

All I can say is be careful when watching those movies. Keep your wits about you. Do * not * act out those horror scenes and maintain your self control and stay within the confines of the law at all times.Sometimes too much exposure to violent movies can desensitise the brain to violence and you lose your natural shock and repulsion reflexes to such violent scenes .

That being said,I might suggest Fright Night and Return of the Living Dead. Event Horizon is a really disturbing movie ,really interesting but something that has a really horrible scene I could not get out of my head ,a man gouging out his own eyes with his thumbs- and he could still see. In the real world ,he would be permanently blind and couldn’t move around like stumbling around in the dark .Some people just watch these movies and can’t distinguish reality from fantasy .

Basically with horror films you have to know what sub genre you like, Supernatural films i would say Rosemary’s Baby, Exorcist, and the shinning. Slasher films i would have to say, A nightmare on elm st 1-7, Friday the 13 1-11, Candyman and My Bloody Valintine not the new one the older one, also Night of the Demons is really good, other good jems are Tales From the hood, Bad Taste, Texas Chainsaw, Dark Half, Braindead and also Necornoicon and any full moon movie
jeremiah | Jan 31, 2010

I think that "The Gift" starring Cate Blanchett is pretty good. It’s kind of like a Thriller, rather than Horror though. And I think it was made in 2000. But it’s still good!
Mary Alice Brandon | Jan 31, 2010

The Vanishing (1988) - Horror/Suspense - One of the best films ever made. Maybe more suspense than horror.

The Shining - Jack Nicholson is amazing.

Exorcist - Creepy.

Who Can Kill A Child - Super corny but amazing scary child movie.

Suspiria - Great art house horror film.

Do I have to pay back the $8000 tax credit?
At the beginning of 2009 my husband and I purchased our first home and received the $8000 tax credit for first time home buyers. In July my husband lost his job, and then his job lied to unemployment about the reason for his termination, so unfortunately we did not receive unemployment. We lived the next four months off of our savings and selling as many of our possessions as we could but my husband could not find a job of his profession in the area, and by December 2009 we were offered a job out of state and took it. During July-December we could not sell our home but could no longer afford to pay for it we decided to rent it out to keep from losing the home and getting bad credit. We still own the home but do not live there. So for the question, are we required to payback the $8000 since we did not reside in the home for 3 years, or is there a leniency for those who lost there jobs? We really need to know but currently cannot pay to find out the answer. if you can, please provide sites with information on your answers.
Thanks a ton!
