Are you literally retarded?
You listed 11 fucking movies lmao
Here's my top 5- action, drama, comedy, thriller, science fiction
Or even here's my top 2: movies released in theaters, and movies released on streaming services
What a stupid fucking thread
I'd normally ignore it but you're the fucking op lmao

Kapwing is Jim Carrey's finest work.

For real, though, not a bad movie in that lineup.

I know right? I had to go all the way to my toes to count the 11 movies composing your top 5.
Do my top 5 not count? How many movies am I allowed to fit in my top 5?

Six, so deal with it.
I guess that makes it my top ten, sort of.
- The Italian Job
- Trainspotting
- Monty Python and The Holy Grail (Life of Brian and The Meaning of Life)
- Lord of the Rings Trilogy Extended Edition
- Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead
- The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (yes, it wasn't that great, but the story was still there, the humour was decent, and it had a good cast who acted well). Gutted it never saw the whole trilogy done.
- Any James Bond, but particularly Tomorrow Never Dies, Goldeneye, Skyfall, and Casino Royale (Craig version).
- The Man from U.N.C.L.E.
- The Blood and Icecream trilogy (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, The World's End).
- Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit
- 1917
I guess that makes it my top ten, sort of.

This is really, really hard for me and I swap in and out occasionally.
On a whim, I would say:
1. Batman The Dark Knight Rises - most peoples 2/3 in the series, but my #1
2. 10 Things I Hate About You - the one nobody ever expects to hear from me
3. Goldfinger OR Dr. No - interchangeable for me.
4. Song of the South - first African American Oscar winner and wonderful music
5. 1917 - one of the only modern “art pieces” in cinema IMO.
It’s all close though.
Somewhere scattered next that may enter my top 5 on any given day would be…
Train to Busan
Beauty and the Beast
The Wailing
Skyfall
That’s my personal list of my favorites. I have seen some gem movies that are objectively better than what’s in that list, but some of those films I have no interest in watching again just due to their story / feeling even though they were amazing films.
That list would / may include;
Lala Land
The Titanic
Old Yeller
Honorable mention for slept on films as well:
BWP - probably my favorite horror film of all time and defined an entire genre
Alita: Battle Angel - one of those films that really came out of nowhere, ignored a lot of modern trends and was just a fun watch.

Ghost is one I didn’t mention on my list, but is truly a remarkable film that I should consider more.
If you have ever loved somebody, or are in love… that movie… it hits.
Sort of the same sensation as Train to Busan if you are a father. You just relate to the pains and struggle.

Amadeus
Downfall
Come and See
Pulp Fiction
That's off the top of my head. I could have easily added Citizen Kane, Chimes at Midnight, Henry V (1989), There Will Be Blood, Pan's Labryinth, Wolf of Wall Street.......... basically making a top five list of favourite films is too hard.

Not a static list but these are some all time favorites
2001 - A Space Odyssey
One of the few perfect movies ever made, revolutionizing sci fi and filmmaking. I could list other Kubrick films in my top-5 but I'll just put his best one in #1.
Stalker
The book (Roadside Picnic) was good, the movie is a masterpiece. Three hours that just fly by and that ending... I like Solyaris a lot too, but this is my favorite Tarkovsky.
Apocalypse Now
I don't think this needs any blurb. Just a beast of a movie.
Last Year in Marienbad
I've always liked French new wave, and this movie introduced me to the left bank directors. One of the best looking movies I ever saw, and the story and atmosphere are proper Lynch.
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
Very hard to pick a favorite from the Dollars trlilogy, maybe I like For a Fistful of Dollars even more, but I guess this has even more going one and has a slightly more epic feel. Cinematography, music and Eastwood are pure perfection.

Neighbours from Hell
Can't give a top 5, have only ever singled out two as my favorites. Lost in Translation and Michael Clayton. Past those, I have a bunch of movies I love that I can't really rank.
