After watching the 80th annual Oscars the other night, I got to thinking….I love movies. Here are my top 10 favorite movies and my top 10 worst movies of all time.
Top 10 Favorite
The Shawshank Redemption….I have it on DVD, but if it’s ever on TV I have to watch it.
It’s a Wonderful Life…that’s for you Steve!
Gladiator….best movie line ever, “Men, what we do in life, echoes in eternity”
Dead Poets Society….O’ Captain, my captain
That thing you do!……almost a perfect movie
Tombstone…..I’m coming for you…and hell’s coming with me….I’ll be your Huckleberry!
You’ve got mail…..I can’t help it guys….I even cry sometimes!
Count of Monte Cristo…..can you believe that’s Jesus?
Lord of the Rings Trilogy….I could watch them back to back to back
The Breakfast Club….such teen angst!
Top 10 worst movies ever
Daddy Day camp (actually anything post Jerry McGuire from Cuba Gooding Jr.)
