Not in order, just five great movies:
Crimson Tide - Stakes can't get much higher, great performances by Hackman and Washington, Aragorn in a supporting role. Unfortunately the DVD contains a couple deleted scenes which were deleted for a reason.
Rocky - the popularity of the movie and awfulness of the sequels have detracted from the status of the original, but it was a really great movie. Stallone's monologue to Adrian the night before the fight is a classic scene.
Bringing Up Baby - Old Grant/Hepburn screwball comedy.
Animal House - Leibowitz...Fawn Leibowitz. Need I say more?
That's 2 dramas and 2 comedies, guess I should throw in an action:
Return of the King - Jackson makes up for The Two Towers.
Tiberius? THought there was a rule against screwing with people's posts...
Fourth Indiana Jones film: sucked. No redeeming features whatsoever.
Temple of Doom: very good. A couple phrases from it are still used in the V household:
- The right. Your other right. The one on the right....We...are going...to die!
- No time for love, Dr. Jones
