Not Your Traditional Favorite Films of All Time List - Blu-ray Forum

Well, here's just a few, off the top of my head...

Back to the Future

I love all three films, but the first is my favorite. I don't remember how old I was when I first saw it, but I know I was under 9 years old, because that's when I saw "Part II" in the theater. I watched the original almost every day after school, and even now I can quote almost the whole thing from memory. I love the Blu-Ray set, and last year, I got to meet Christopher Lloyd at a local convention. I've been starstruck before, but this was definitely a major moment of that. I didn't have much time to chat with him, because there were so many folks in line, but I managed to say "thank you" for the 8x10 he signed, and he smiled. I doubt I'll be forgetting that any time soon.

The Mask

I went through a rabid "Jim Carrey fandom" phase as a teenager, and I'd seen the first "Ace Ventura", but this is the one that cemented it all for me. I probably saw it at least 5 times in the theater, and countless more on home video. I'm not a huge fan of his recent work at all, but "The Mask", "Batman Forever", "The Truman Show", and "The Majestic" are among my favorite films.

The Sound of Music

This is another one of those films that nearly defined my childhood. My aunt and uncle (who are both very close to my age) were brought up on it by their mother, and I was introduced as well. I recently saw it on Blu-Ray, and my jaw dropped. The colors, the music, the story...its truly a classic, in almost every sense of the word. I honestly don't know how many times I've seen it over the years, but I rarely get sick of it. I feel the same way about "Mary Poppins", too.
