Mine is Mannequin and I'm only starting this thread here because I've seen it was filmed in 1987...the same year as my 944 Cherry :)

DO think the recent Casino Royale was the best Bond.
Always liked Braveheart, Platoon, We were Soldiers.

Long list I could dreg up

Music is also a serious chillout assistance

One of the best films I've seen was in the 1982 channel 4 series of films with triangles in the corner of the screen, set in the casualty unit of an Australian hospital - no idea what it was called but it was very, very funny.

As a twist on this what about the worst films you've ever seen - I vote for Inception and The Draughtsman's Contract - though women seem to like Inception whilst men hate it amongst the people I know I have yet to meet anyone who raved about The Draughtsman's Contract. Of course The Da Vinci Code is worth a mention as the most hyped load of b******** I have ever known.

I would be interested to know what others have hated too.

Surprised no mention of either Bullitt or the original Italian Job due to the car action, also high on my list would be The Excorsist, the Omen films and many others which don't spring to mind at the moment
