Akin to the "Musical Picks" topic, I want to hear what your all time favourite movies/television shows are. It can be anything from action to drama to sports to romance (who watches that anyway though?). Don't be shy and don't be mean to other members, even if they really did enjoy Superbaby-Geniuses or whatever that piece of crap was called

 

I'll start off with a couple of my favs; I find most of the ones I put down are great films all together, but have shining endings.

 

Blood Diamond (Thriller/Drama): Leo DiCaprio picks up a sick south african accent in this eye-opening thriller/drama. Great music but if you're a Leo fan, you can probably already guess how it ends lol.

Friday Night Lights (Sports): I'm not a football guy, but the cinematography and story made this a refreshing change to the typical, predictable, sports movie. Plus, the instrumental music by Explosions in the Sky fits perfect (note: the trailer is crap, watch the film).

The Lord of The Rings Trilogy (Fantasy): If you are on a Lego forum where Lego LOTR products are frequently discussed, you probably already know how awesome the films are. If you don't, I'll leave it up to the mods to immediately revoke your membership to BrickPicker (jk).

 

And last I'll just end with my favourite TV show, which is probably going into its final season this year, The Mentalist (crime procedeural): this murder-a-episode series focuses on a former psychic who is now tracking the serial killer who murdered his family. The show can be light and funny, but when the serial killer ("red john") gets involved, it can get pretty unnerving. The series has spent 5 years tracking down murderers so feels a bit tired, but it is still my favourite. And, I'll post a trailer for the 3rd season finally:

Phew, if you got through all that... you don't get bored easily, do you? Now tell me your picks!

Yeah and now they will try to pack all of the action in two episodes.

This was one of the corniest horror films I ever watched....I loved it! The sequel was alright though.

The newest trailer for Maleficent. Definitely some changes in the story from even the original Disney version.

 

Also a trailer for the sequel to Planes called "Planes: Fire & Rescue".

Love the wings!

I just watched the next to last episode of Psych EVER.  Psych + Bruce Campbell = MAJOR WIN !!

 

Last episode is on Wednesday

I'm starting to get into Arrow.  Each episode featuring Slade/Deathstroke in action is just THAT much better.

Hope they make LEGO based on this movie:

this sunday for freezes ufc shogun vs dan henderson. can't wait should be a slug fest

Hope they make LEGO based on this movie:

Yeah, I just spotted this on Youtube. For what little is there, it appears faithfull to the classic series. I mostly find interesting how despite being made in 3D it all looks rather clayish (at least the characters themselves do).

I like it because it reminds me of looking through an old view master.

You're right. I forgot about those from my childhood with the circular slides you put in and everything.

My favourite tv-shows are: the Soprano's and Miami Vice films: the Godfather Trilogy Back to the Future Trilogy Into the Wild Batman Begins Rocky IV and many more offcourse!

how do you plan to watch it?

Honestly it shouldn't be watched by anyone, it was really funny in 1982, now not so much, but has as much "geek cred" as the Star Wars Thanksgiving Special. I also had to find a VCR last year, only place I could find one was Goodwill, they have tons of them. There was an episode of Burn Notice where they mentioned that the best way to keep secrets safe was to store them on antiquated equipment that no one has anymore. There's a lot of truth to that.

May the Farce be with you.... If you think that was funny, you should watch Thumb Wars. Haha.

I'm not ashamed to admit that I liked Planes as much as my kids....can't wait for the sequel, that looks cute!
