Classic Movies - Top 5

#5
Alien was a bit spooky for me. It really was a horror movie in my opinion but Aliens was just an all around kick ass of the movie. The Colonial Marines was just a fantastic element. The whole setup was great and the nonstop action is just fantastic.


Useless fact of the day - Bill Paxton and Lance Henriksen are the only two actors toplay characters killed or injured by a Terminator, an Alienand a Predator. Paxton was killed in The Terminator, Aliensand Predator 2, while Henriksen was killed in TheTerminator, ripped in two in Aliens and killed in Alien vs.Predator.

How can you miss with Speilburg and Lucas. If only movies were made like this all the time. This is just plain fun. Fantastic character, big story, and fantastic action scenes. To me the best action scene ever in a movie is the truck scene when Indiana is trying to rescue the truck back from the bad guys. Him going under the truck is still the best stunt of all time. To think this was done before computer animation trickery. The second film was a let down but the third one came back strong. If they would only get off their butts and do the fourth one!

This movie was so poignant for me that a bunch of my friends tried to replicate the movie growing up. Skipping school that day was one of the best memories growing up. Throw in some classic lines and this is just a great all around movie.

Save Ferris!

My pseudo serious film entry for the top 5. Scarlett really breaks out in this one and her co-star Bill Murray is just a great complement. The two lost characters in the topsy turvy world of Tokyo is a simple yet powerful film. My guess is that Bill whispers, I love you at the end....

My all time favorite movie. Just a grity scifi spectacular Ford does a great job. Just a complete picture...love it!
