My Top 10 Movies

1. Star Wars Trilogy (Widescreen Edition)

It's true, I am a Star Wars fanatic and love everything about it. What is in Star Wars that isn't fully awesome? Lightsabers, the force, Yoda, Jedi, Smugglers, Gangsters, Jawas (yeah, I said it), love, hate, conflict; the list goes on. Let's just say I can't narrow it down to one movie, and yes I do like the prequel trilogy too so this is just one big clump.

2. Back to the Future - The Complete Trilogy

I promise this isn't a whole list of trilogies, there's only a few. Back to the Future definitely comes from my childhood. I play guitar because Marty McFly is awesome and Johnny B. Goode is so much fun to watch and play. The concept is awesome, the casting is perfect, and even Back to the Future 3 was cool.

3. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: 25th Anniversa... (2009)

Ok last one I promise. Again, the ninja turtles movies are from my childhood. The creators must have been smoking something to come up with the idea of teenage-sized, walking, talking, ninjitsu trained turtles; but it's awesome! If I had to pick one movie it would be a fight between I and II, but probably II; III was still good, and the new TMNT movie that was CGI was also full of awesome ninja turtle action!

4. The Goonies (1985)

Who doesn't love the Goonies? You either love this movie, or you've never seen it. Goonies was a good old 80's movie about a bunch of kids who go on a treasure hunt. First off, how awesome is that? What kid didn't go on a 'treasure hunt'? Well these kids went on a real one, and it's a great adventure that never gets old.

5. The Mask (New Line Platinum Series) (1997)

Jim Carrey is possibly my favorite comedic actor. The Mask was in his prime years (Dumb and Dumber was up there, also think of Ace Ventura) and is by far my favorite movie of his. It was the perfect combination of the average joe with superpowers that many could relate to. And (spoiler) he even got the girl at the end.

6. School of Rock (Widescreen Edition) (2004)

Jack Black is also up there in comedic roles. School of Rock is a pretty unique movie, where the kids are the musician stars. I also like this movie because Jack Black was taught how to play his guitar parts by the kid, Zack, as he would probably have to teach me too; that kid is amazing. Actually all the kids are amazing at what they do; that's what makes it a such good movie.

7. Stardust (Widescreen Edition) (2007)

Now this might surprise some, but this movie is awesome. I originally thought it was a chick flick, and while there is the theme of love, this is one of the best adventure movies I've ever seen. A boy becomes a man, and one of my favorite themes is that he learns that love is more than just looks and feelings, it's about living an adventure together.

7.9

8. Kung Fu Panda (Widescreen Edition)

Now this one probably didn't surprise anyone. Why I like this movie: Jack Black, Pandas (favorite animal), kung-fu, awesomeness, great animation, great story, awesome point! The whole movie is about being yourself and not trying to be something you can't. You can't reach your full potential until you just be yourself. It's hilarious, it's a kid's movie, and adults can love it too.

9. The Little Mermaid (Two-Disc Platinum Editio... (2006)

I'm not ashamed to admit that this is my favorite Disney movie; it always has been and it always will be. This movie came out when I was 4, I'm old, and I've loved it ever since. I can't really pinpoint why: the music, the story, the character-lovability factor; it's just all so good. Can't get sick of singing "Under the Sea" or "Part Of Your World" possibly the best soundtrack.

10. Without a Paddle (Widescreen Edition) (2004)

While I love comedy, if a movie can cause emotion within the viewer it's a winner. I'm fairly unemotional when it comes to movies; I mean it's people acting, it's not real. But when there is a really good point to a movie tied with an adventure (see Goonies and Stardust) it can get to me. While this movie is without a doubt a comedy, the sense of adventure and doing something totally stupid with your friends stirs in me. I love adventures, and I love adventure movies that can give me the sense that I'm along for the ride too.

Sabin Kenobi's rating:

I was sitting looking and thinking about movies, how many there are, and how many I have and have not seen. It's insane when you think about it. I try not to be the guy who owns every movie; I don't just go buy something because it's cool or because I saw it once and thought it was just 'alright'. I want my movie collection to say something about me, people have often looked at it and gone "yep, that's you" because it's mostly comedy.

Then I thought about movies do I just never get sick of no matter how many times I watch them? This is a good question to ask because it makes you realize which discs get burned out and which ones you could probably get rid of. Feel free to leave comments.
