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!

I am not a comic book guy, regarding the new superman vs Batman movie

... was wondering the reason 2 Super hero good guys are in a movie "against" each other? Where did one of the 2 go "bad guy"?

Why don't they like each other?  sorry for dumb questions!! :mda:

Superman killed 100's of people fighting Zod in "Man of Steel". This totally goes against Batman's code.

Not surprising...rumors of script rewrites on both this and Rogue One.  How they will deliver Rogue One in 11 months is a mystery to me.  I loved Force Awakens but I don't have good feelings about Rogue One.  Why was it the first spinoff?  There are so many more interesting apects to Star Wars.

I THINK I remember reading that it is the story about how the rebels got the plans to the first Death Star between episode 3 and 4.  (I could be wrong.)
