Since everyone else is doing it, here is my list:
1) The Princess Bride (the most quote-worthy movie ever!) 2) The Empire Strikes Back 3) Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan 4) Forest Gump 5) Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (I frequently watch with my kids) 6) The Cutting Edge (just about the only "chick flick" that I really like) 7) Back to the Future 8) Black Sunday (too bad that they did not stay as true to the book as they could have today) 9) Jurassic Park 10) Silence of the Lambs 11) Se7en 12) Top Gun 13) The Pentagon Wars 14) Ferris Bueller's Day Off 15) Beetlejuice 16) The Terminator 17) Tron 18) Inner Space 19) Young Guns 20) The Black Hole 21) Terminator 2 22) They Live 23) Office Space 24) Return of the Jedi 25) Dazed and Confused
BTW, Glory and Superman II just missed my top 25.

Here's mine to! I want to be with the cool kids!
1) The Empire Strikes Back 2) Terminator 2: Judgment Day 3) Star Wars (aka A New Hope) 4) Robocop 5) Monty Python & The Holy Grail 7) Dawn of the Dead (original) 8) Spider-Man 9) Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring 10) Return of the Jedi 11) The Terminator 12) Seven 13) Fight Club 14) Ghostbusters 15) The Seven Samurai 16) Night of the Living Dead (original) 17) Halloween 18) A Nightmare on Elm Street 19) Conan The Barbarian 20) Airplane! 21) Blade Runner 22) Memento 23) Half-Baked 24) Videodrome 25) Cemetery Man
I basically tried to have a variety in my list. I didn't want it to be all from one time period or one style of movie. This list was so hard for me to make. I told Meat, I could make the list 25 times, with different movies in different orders every time and never end up 100% satisfied with it.

#8124 Points (Tie)Scarface Released December 9, 1983Tony becomes a gangster against the backdrop of the 1980s cocaine boom. The film chronicles his rise to the top of Miami's criminal underworld and subsequent downfall. The film is loosely based on the 1932 fictionalized Al Capone biopic, Scarface. Although initially released to little fanfare, and the target of harsh reviews, Scarface gradually developed a significant cult following, particularly within the world of hip-hop.

wow 3 of my picks in the top 10 so far.
And it seems somewhat ironic yet fitting that Scarface and Goodfellas tie for points.

The funny thing is, Goodfellas didn't receive ANY first place votes. And Scarface was on 2 more ballots than Goodfellas was. So it was almost like, you either love Goodfellas and voted accordingly, or you didn't like it at all.

Should've submitted some. Where are the silent pics? Their voices couldn't be heard. It's a Crapper Favorite Movie List, a lot of movies are late 90's-early 00's. Except for the Classics, which are the Top 10.

#5143 PointsShawshank Redemption Released September 10, 1994The plot of Shawshank revolves around Andy Dufresne's life in prison after being wrongly convicted of the murder of his wife and her lover. Despite a poor box office reception (partially due to competition from the commercial success of films such as Forrest Gump, Pulp Fiction, and Speed, Shawshank received favourable reviews from critics and enjoyed a remarkable life on cable television, home video, and DVD, and continues to be noticed by popular culture. It is consistently ranked amongst the greatest movies of all time.
