Star Wars, and Transformers here, hubby collects the starwars books too not to mention playing the online mmorpg :)

There's lots of great movies out there, so its hard to narrow it down. Personally, i found the Lord of The Rings to be very dissapointing, but everyone else seems to love it. Eh.

My top three would have to be "Serenity" "Man on Fire" (The Denzel version) and "Blade Runner".

aynfarika: Star Wars... how could I forget about that one?  Thank you for the reminder!

Gumpo: Dissapointing...?   That's make me wonder!  Did you wanted the bad guy to win?  :)   Blade Runner is quite a very good classic movie.  Did you like Indiana Jones?

Haha, no, i was just bored by all the nothing - i dont think they did anything in the first movie but walk from the left side of the screen to the right over and over again for 3 hours. And then they made two more movies, heh. Well, okay they talked a bit. And met a horrible CGI gollum. Im usually a person who wants movies to be longer, but i really thought they should have cut a good hour out of that first movie.

I loved all 4 Indiana Jones movies. The first and third are by far the best, but they are all classics to me.

Right now, I am really into movies that just make me laugh.  Those Judd Aptow movies-Knocked Up, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, etc.. Are all pretty good to me (although, understandably, offensive to others).

Back to the Future, Momento, and Click are all great movies.

My favorite movies:

Gone with the Wind, Ever After, The Notebook, Little Women, Old School, Step Brothers, Just One of the Guys, Drive me Crazy, all Spidermen movies, Diary of a Mad Black Woman, and Grease 1 and 2

I also loved the Lord of the Rings triology.  love the Harry Potter books and movies.  I also loved Star Wars.  I remember when that was the ultimate in special effects.  Wow!  Things have really come a long way since then.

Julie, if you like those, you need to check out My Best Friend's Girl. It's got Kate Hudson, Dane Cook, Jason Biggs, and Alec Baldwin. It's really funny (in an offensive to others kind of way). :-)

Thanks for the recommendation, Junebug!  I like all of those actors, too. I haven't seen that one-will check it out next time we are renting a movie!

ME I LOVE GHOST, LOVE STORY AND FAST AND FURRIES

I love the Notebook and Just like Heaven, they are great love stories!

By far, Star Wars is my favorite movie.  Next is Neverending Story

The Godfather. In one word: awesome.

Neverending Story... yeah...!  Brings me back to my chilhood... wow... more than the movie I think I love more the song!  You got the gold medal on that one campriishe!

ok...let's go back to the orginal post. Lord of the Rings. I just saw a preview for a new Lord of the Rings movie, but I thought it was over! I am sooooo confused...any insight anyone?

Only possibility would be The Hobbit.  Otherwise, there is no such thing.

WHAT...!?  A new Lord of the Rings movie???  That's new news for me!  

Well, the author, Tolkien, wrote 3 related books: The Lord of the Rings, The Silmarillion and The Hobbit.

Of course, you all know The Lord of the Rings Trilogy based on the book carrying the same name, and maybe the only movie that could be amusing enough would be one based on The Hobbit.  To be honest, that's the book I enjoyed the most and I think would be an ever better movie than the Lord of the Rings.

Looks like it will be The Hobbit directed by Guillermo del Toro, which is in pre-production. Filming won't start til next year, with a 2011 release date.

You can bet I'll be the first one on the line!  Well, second one, I'll let my daughter be the first one...

Irishnanny, I love ghost!! Such a great movie.

A couple classics that I think are great: Top Gun, Princess Bride, Road House.

AND, can you believe it?? My bf has never seen Dirty Dancing!! Is it me or is that weird?

Not weird... just proof that he is, in fact, a man.  Unless you are a woman, Dirty Dancing is a TERRIBLE movie.  My wife absolutely loves it and tarnished our DVD collection by buying it.

Whatever.

"Nobody puts Baby in the corner", TriCoRob. :) Definitely a girl movie, but such a good one! 

I LOVE LOTR, any fantasy really, or period movie.  Medieveal, Renaissance, etc.  I love it.  The clothes are so beautiful.  I was born in the wrong era.

favorite movies are Gone With the Wind, Little Women, and Old School

Disney movies!!!! I love them!!!

BTW...The new "Hannah Montana" movie came out today!!! Going to get it right after work. My 5 yr old daughter loves her some Miley Cyrus!!!

the new movie is the hobbit, the director of the movie will be that del torro guy. hes a good director but if you want to know more check out the imdb website.

Theyre having a new Hobbbit movie?  oooooooooh.      O-o

And I just looked at IMDB and saw theyre making a Hobbit 2 which is a prequel to The Hobbit.  KEWWWL
