No particular order:

1. LOTR: Fellowship of the Ring
2. The Matrix
3. Snatch
4. Human Traffic
5. Pulp Fiction

Damn thats a hard thing to do .. I'm sure there's about 20 kickass movies on there that I've completely forgotten about

And I'm sure LOTR: The Two Towers will be up there in a week's time as well

1. Scarface
2. Godfather
3. Godfather II
4. Godfather III
5. Snatch/Lock Stock (cant decide)

From what I can see looking at the shelf:
Blade Runner - All time favourite to date (1984 original not the directors cut).
The Crow
True Romance
Leon/The Professional
Grosse Point Blank

Alot of violence here I know, but just a small sellection of over 100 to choose from.

I remember watching 'Requim for a Dream' at about 2 am, and after it finished at about 4 am i found myself shaking. Within, it'd really hit home, as part of that was due to the realisation of how real the movie was. That such things happen unfortunately, as humans come to their own demise. The power of drugs. Any movie [partly due to the way in which it is directed, and partly due to the underlying morale of the story], that's able to move you in such a way, whether good or bad, *shrug* its got to be a great movie. jus my 2 cents.

oh, also, memento is a masterpiece in the way its directed, but the content didnt hold too greatly for me.

That is all

COLONEL: You write "Born to Kill" on your helmet and you wear a peace button. What's that supposed to be, some kind of sick joke?!

JOKER: No, sir.

COLONEL: You'd better get your head and your ass wired together, or I will take a giant shit on you!

Classic

LOTR - epic fantasy with a purpose
braveheart - very similar to shawshank

go rent it! this is a great movie!

probably one of my favourite ever scenes, where all the helicopters come swooping out of the morning sun, with Wagner - Ride of the Valkyries pounding

amazing scene, best battle scene ever
