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 xD

 

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!

Holy crap. I'm a big movie critic and usually very negative. This movie was awsome. Highly recommend. I love the premise being it too of population Control.

Kid did u see Whiplash? Let me know what you think of it. A simple but truly perfect film. For me the best movie of 2014.

I have advance screenings to 3-4 movies over the next two weeks. Tonight was Still Alice featuring Julianne Moore and the most amazing thing is that Kristen Stewart didn't ruin it. In all seriousness, it was a good movie and a great performance by Julianne Moore and I highly recommend it. Kristen Stewart portrays someone who can't act, a perfect role for her.

Thanks for sharing.  I was hoping the Fantastic Four would get a reboot.

thanks for posting emazers

I feel like we just did Fantastic Four and now here we 'reimagine' it again. It's like Spider-Man all over again. I see we are still doing those logos with numbers in place of letters similar to how the series "Numbers" did by replacing the "e" with a three. So it reads "Fant 4 stic". ....How the heck are you supposed to pronounce that? :scratchhead:

they need to merchandize this time so we can cash in on limited edition "teddy bear souls" to sell to little girls who want their bears to live

Well Done piece, TY for sharing

From the archive of 1980s animated features is one drawn by a Canadian studio whose credits include the original Heavy Metal film running about 23 minutes long with a soundtrack by Rush. Some parts seem familiar but I honestly can't remember watching the complete thing long ago. In any case it was a quirky strange venture back down childhood boulevard.
