rmal,
looks like we have similar tastes in movies.
Wes Anderson, Sergio Leone and City of God

Have you seen Bottle Rocket? I'm always surprised how many people like Rushmore, Royal T, and Life Acquatic but don't know about Bottle Rocket.

City of God was a disturbing and frightening movie... your talking about the movie that takes place in Rio de Janeiro!?

Man, I have no idea. My tastes vary constantly, so my favourite movie list changes as well. In recent memory, I'd have to say House of Flying Daggers, Serenity, Iron Giant, Spirited Away and King Kong were pretty awesome.

Of course I've seen Bottle Rocket, it's a very close second to Royal Tenenbaums. I remember seeing Bottle Rocket shortly after it came out. Great movie.

It's been a while sense i've tried to name my top favorite movies. It's never a real easy task, because I'll remember some movie and be like "oooo yeah that was so much better ect..", but here is my best shot.

1. 12 Monkies
2. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
3. Butterfly Effect directors cut
4. Howel's Moveing Castle
5. Ghost in the Shell
