I really can't pick 3 best, so I won't bother to try. My DVD collection is vast, and my BD collection is catching up, but a lot of the ones I've bought are because they are faves!

 

Now for worst, that's also hard to pick 3 so I'll just choose the first that pop into my head:

 

Virus

Alexander (so dull you'd think it was real history)

Wing Commander

Fave

1. Star Wars IV

2. Back to the Future

So much **** and so little spaces:

 

Unfave

1. Guest House Paridiso - one of the few films I have switched off after 30 mins on viewing 1

2. Wing commander - It was very funny - although wasnt supposed to be

3. Iron Eagle 3 - needless to say I never bothered watching #4

Best:

Apocalypse Now

Raiders of the Lost Ark

Ferris Beuller's Day Off

 

Worse:

Highlander 2 (why did they bother with the alien planet storyline?)

Iron Eagle 2 (good idea but lousy execution)

1984 (Even Richard Burton & John Hurt couldn't save it)

Best:

Airplane (the obvious one I'm surprised nobody here has said yet)

the original indiana jones

the original matrix

the original star wars trilogy

V for Vendetta

Saving Private Ryan

We Were Soldiers

Lord of the Rings trilogy

 

Worst:

Anything my mother wants to watch ( a giant list in itself)

Max Payne (Why can't anybody make a decent game-> movie conversion?)

Ghosts of Mars (so bad, its actually redeemable for being unintentionally funny)

XXX: State of the Union (and anything with ice cube)

Indiana Jones, that new crystal skull one

The matrix sequels

 

Dances With Smurfs/Fern Gully 3d (Avatar) doesn't deserve to go on the worst list. It's a tired old story and doesn't match the hype, but it is not painful to watch.

Best:

Caddyshack (Bill Murray's best)

Anything produced and or directed by Clint Eastwood

Band of Brothers (All of the series)

 

Worst:

TopGun (The only good part is the first 5 minutes)

All Iron Eagle's

Most "Chick Flick's"

Anything new with a vampire or werewolf in it.

 

I loved the CGI and effects in Avatar,otherwise,it was Custer against the Cheyenne and Sioux 6 years away from earth.

Star Wars -- original, stand alone complete film with no camp sequels nor "prequels," as a timeless old story in a high budget intersteller vastness pushing science fiction to a higher dimension.

 

Kelly's Heroes -- Tank pwns Bank :victory: The US and German Armies private enterprises were NOT after wads of banker debt backed paper "notes" in saddle bags like Hollywood movies normally plot it. Clint Eastwood's classical films seem to focus on gold.

 

All Quiet on the Western Front -- the original movie, and novel, of all time, ever made.

 

 

 

Worst movie? Almost all of them, but as let downs go after earlier favorites:: Return Jedi, Failsafe, etc...

ezlead yea vampires are so over cooked...but...I just got Tom Baker's State of Decay (1970s Doctor Who) and the new twist is the sole surviving giant vampire, leader of a defeated ancient race that long ago battled the Time Lords across the universe. The old rusted Earth scout ship programmed to pierce the heart of the awakening giant, and fuel tanks filled with blood to feed the healing beast, were for me some fascinating concepts in this whoopisode.
