Favorite Danny Boyle Film - Page 3 - Blu-ray Forum

Starman22 · 07-06-2010, 07:16 PM

I only saw The Beach, 28 Days Later, and Slumdog Millionaire and all of good films and but I like 28 Days Later is better.

mrrant_33 · 07-10-2010, 06:38 AM

I really hope to one day say that my favorite Danny Boyle film is his adaptation of the Trainspotting sequel Porno

RampageIceman · 07-10-2010, 03:08 PM

Trainspotting is his best... I voted for Slumdog because I forgot what Trains was until right after.... The Beach is one of my 10 least favorite films

LordoftheRings · 07-11-2010, 05:42 AM

"Trainspotting".

walter stark · 07-11-2010, 07:00 AM

i love Trainspotting and 28 Days later and they were the films that made him that cult favourite director.
Then Slumdog came out which was ace but then everybody got on his bandwagon, well everyone in Radcliffe (where he's from)

TLeeTx2012 · 04-22-2011, 07:08 PM

Slumdog

Ray_Rogers · 05-04-2011, 10:36 AM

I'll never watch Slumdog Millionaire.
Was a mix up between Shallow Grave, Trainspotting, 28 Days Later, Millions and Sunshine.

Saints 2010 · 05-07-2011, 11:37 AM

Sunshine followed by Slumdog Millionaire.

Tcan21 · 05-07-2011, 02:19 PM

Sunshine, Slumdog, 127 Hours

ForEver Blu · 05-07-2011, 09:07 PM

Sunshine is a great film , but the final act was a bit disappointing.

Also like 28 Days Later and Shallow Grave, but Trainspotting blew me away the 1st time I saw it.

So it got my vote, didn't care much for The Beach and I hated Slumdog Millionaire.

csdot · 05-08-2011, 03:36 PM

the only movie of his that ive seen that i really liked was Sunshine, so that gets my vote.

Alexias_dad · 05-08-2011, 11:40 PM

28 Days, but trainspotting was also good.

dallywhitty · 05-09-2011, 04:38 PM

Trainspotting 10/10
A Life Less Ordinary 8/10
28 Days Later 7/10
Shallow Grave 7/10

Al_The_Strange · 05-09-2011, 04:44 PM

"Trainspotting" is probably the only one I don't have any problems with. All the other ones are great in many ways, but have one or two things I disagree with.

Lemmy Lugosi · 05-09-2011, 05:13 PM

28 Days Later is miles above all of his other films.

I've had a chance to meet Irvine Welsh a few times and he did say the rights had been purchased and that a film was likely to follow. This was two years ago now since I've seen him, so I imagine it's in limbo.
Would love to see it myself, although needs to be done well and not like the crap that happened to Chuck Palahniuk's Choke .

I've enjoyed most if not all of Boyle's films. Top of my list is Millions and Trainspotting. Although I also like 28 Days Later. The Beach was so-so, Alex's novel was ten times better.

Monkey · 05-10-2011, 06:00 PM

At of the movies I've watched Sunshine then 28 Day Later

Aphanasis · 08-25-2011, 04:08 PM

Top 3
1. Shallow Grave
2. Trainspotting
3. 28 Days Later

I didn't like Slumdog at all. It just seemed like he'd lost the edginess (much as I hate the term) that made his early films so great.

wilky61 · 08-28-2011, 09:40 PM

Sunshine narrowly over 28DL... I absolutely detest Trainspotting.

arcadeforest · 10-22-2011, 04:05 AM

Slumdog for me, something about that movie I really like even though its pretty depressing for a good part of it.
