Not sure that i actually have a favourite but they are probably...........

1) Goodfellas
2) Pulp Fiction
2) Taxi Driver

I never get tired of watching these films. I can watch them and they still feel as fresh and get better with repeat viewings. There are a few more films i could put into this list but i'll keep it to just the three.

Always a very tricky question.

1. Casablanca
2. Leon
3. Edward Scissorhands

(Although if you ask me tomorrow I'll probably say something different!)

3 films to rule them all, thats a hard choice.

the first two are easy for me. the third is a struggle.

1:Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind. I never tire of watching this film

2:Al Pacino's Scarface. At last guess ive seen this film over 30 times.

3:This would go to The Breakfast Club for just being a really easy to watch and a film that always makes me feel good.

Predator was great, but it's no Aliens. Cameron's the man when it comes to sci-fi/action. Aliens and Terminator 2??? Come on!!

Action movie directors have sold the action movie soul for more CGI shots.

If it's not, it's Star wars: Episodes 1 to 3 :D

I think Star Wars ep 1-3 look pretty good and got better as they went on but they are going age worse than a chain smoking, all-night partying, non sleeping Micky Rourke! Thats the good thing about the original trilogy. Not much CGI so it makes them timeless in that respect.

Have to agree with Hubbs about Arnie. He holds a special place in my heart for those action films he did and cant see anybody doing better. Action films have moved on now and are highly decorated with cgi.

R.I.P old style action films.

I think The Rock would do good as the new face of this century's action hero :) . The only problem is he chooses the wrong movies to star in :( .
