Worst-On Deadly Ground, Best? Hmmmm...

Now that I think about it, you could substitute any film from that noted thespian, Steven Seagal, for On Deadly Ground. It would take a lot of bandwidth to list all the bad films, since 90% of the movies made are crap, IMO. Glen or Glenda is another hilariously bad Ed Wood film, fun if your're in the right frame of mind. Best films? My favorites are-


Casablanca
The Sting
Gone With the Wind
The Philadelphia Story
Bride of Frankenstein
Young Frankenstein (Bride & YF make a great double feature!)
Ben Hur
Star Wars
Braveheart
It's a Wonderful Life
Shane
The Shawshank Redemption
Vertigo
Psycho
Rebecca
Apollo 13
The Magnificent Seven
A Fish Called Wanda
Beauty & The Beast (Disney)

There was an interesting article in the morning paper today about the best films of the past year being "childrens" films (Shrek, Monsters Inc., Harry Potter). I can't really argue with the premise of the article- any of the Pixar films (Toy Story 1 & 2, Bugs Life, Monsters Inc) were more enjoyable than any of the live action films made in the last few years, IMO. There are also a lot of films that are arguably not great movies but certain actors make them enjoyable for repeat viewings- the Pink Panther series comes to mind, Peter Sellers was so brilliant. Fun thread!
