The Lion King · 05-29-2008, 01:31 AM

Among my favourites are Sweeney Todd, 300, Sin City, Sleepy Hollow, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Corpse Bride, Kill Bill and Underworld.

"What Dreams May Come."

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. Hero. Eyes Wide Shut. A Clock Work Orange. The Darjeeling Limited.

At this point, I'd have responded with something like, oh, "Gone With the Wind", but it's just too sad:
LK, does every facet of your immediate existence have to be THE BEST EVER!!! for our mutual discussion, or will you someday be older than nineteen?

I would have to vote for Gone With The Wind, Lawrence of Arabia, or The Wizard of Oz. Of course, The Wizard of Oz lost the Oscar in 1939 to Gone With the Wind.

Funnily enough, the only other movie that's been previously mentioned that even won the Oscar was Sweeney Todd.
