That's possibly the best list of films ever compiled :D Good on you mate, I knew you'd have good taste! Here are a few of mine;

The Indiana Jones trilogy [of course]

James Bond - pretty much anything except the most recent one [I haven't seen it], and a few of the Roger Moore ones.

Just about any comic book movie - Spider-Man, X-Men, X-2, The Hulk, DareDevil, Superman. Anything like that.

Love Actually
Four Weddings and a Funeral
About A Boy [all British romantic comedies with the man, Hugh Grant]

Terminator 3 - completely stupid, completely entertaining.

Finding Nemo
Toy Story
Toy Story 2

Monty Python and the Holy Grail - sometimes I hate Monty Python for spawning so many completely cretinous people who think they're being hilarious and socially-acceptable by quoting it, but there's nothing funnier than when Sir Lancelot goes around slashing everyone up in the castle. Put Life of Brian down too.

Loads more. As you can see, fairly varied tastes there :P I'm not as into my movies as other people, but I don't care. Oh, and put down the Panzer Dragoon anime too [although it's only half an hour long]. Cheerio.

I have to say I wasn't too impressed with Fight Club - I thought that the big twist only served to make the preceding film pretty pointless. I know some people would beat me up for saying that, but it's my opinion. It was okay, but no great shakes.

I forgot to put down Pirates of the Caribbean, I love that film, and of course the Lord of the Rings films. How stupid of me :P
