Movies the you would recommend and ones that everyone needs to see are two completely different things.
very few people need to see Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and definately not everyone needs to see The Harry Potter movies!

Everyone needs to see
The Passion Of The Christ
The Chronicles Of Narnia
Braveheart
The Patriot

Anyone who wants to consider themselves even slightly into movies need to see
LOTR
Pirates Of The Carribean
The Village
maybe the HP movies
a few assorted superhero movies (ex. Spiderman, X-men, Batman Begins)
a couple good comedies (ex. Elf, Kicking And Screaming, Mystery Men)
some appropriate thrillers (Flightplan, Red Eye, The Forgotten)
and the Indiana Jones movies
Evolution is a faith, not a science!

I was only joking when I said Texas Chainsaw Massacre. ;) I have never seen it and probably never will.

Nope, it's PG... although the language presses that boundary, I think. ;)

I thought I already posted in here... weird.

Around the World in 80 Days, the one with Jackie Chan.
The Music Box. (old and short)
The Chronicles of Narnia
The Princess Bride
Charoletts Web (old one, maybe the new one)
The Incredibles.


There are some people, however, who are better off watching no movies.
“Among the attributes of God, although they are all equal, mercy shines with even more brilliancy than justice.” —Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra

By the way, Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, was a racist.

For now I'll go with, in no particular order:

Spider-man 1 & 2

Walk the Line

X-men 1 & 2

The Patriot

Star Wars 4-6

Passion of the Christ

Back to the Future 1, 2, & 3

I'm sure there are more I'll come up with later...

So agree, disagree, and add your own! \:D/

I've seen Spiderman 2, The StarWars , and that's it...poor me. :D

Yes, I love Wallace and Gromit! The amount of British humour in it is insane. :lol:

Trinity: I don't believe in the catagoration of food. If it wants to be a fruit it can be fruit. If it wants to be vegetable it can be a vegetable. In todays society anyone and anything can be whatever they so wish.
Siblings: How do you know which it wants to be?
Trinity: I just ask! I say 'Hey apple! You wanna be a fruit or a vegetable?' And the apple will say back to me 'Well, I always wanted to be a vegetable.' So I just say back 'Thus you are' and down the hatch said vegetable goes!
