Your Perfect 10

[Diesel]

What are your top 10 favorite movies of all time?
Not THE BEST FILMS OF ALL TIME, but your PERSONAL favorites?

I've seen several threads about favorites of certain genres or favorites of a given list, but I want people to fill out there own list.

PLEASE DO NOT CRITICIZE OTHERS CHOICES, THIS IS YOUR PERSONAL 10 FAVORITE FILMS

You do not need to list them in a particular order if its too hard to order them, which I'm sure it is for some of us.

I'll kick it off:

1. Lord of the Rings: Return of the King (2003)
2. The Dark Knight (2008)
3. Empire Strikes Back (1980)

The Rest May Vary From Time to Time:

4. The Prestige (2006)
5. Independence Day (1996)
6. Batman Begins (2005)
7. Back to the Future (1985)
8. X-men 2 (2003)
9. Reign of Fire (2002)
10. Spider-man 2 (2004)

I like to count all three as one too, since they are one book (according to the author but not the publishers)

No, it wasn't that good. It was pretty terrible. A bunch of generic characters (I can't remember a single name) in the now generic Aliens plot: escape before the "infected" area is destroyed (and some predators doing something, I can't remember, but apparently the first one was too stupid to hit the self-destruct button). It's one of the few Blu-Rays I truly regret purchasing. You won't find many kind comments about the movie on this site (or any other site for that matter). If you thought the first was just okay (or even good), after watching the second you'll think #1 was Oscar-worthy in comparison.
