I think that a number of people here have cheated! The thread asked for your favourite film ever, not a list!

My all time favourite is Raiders of The Lost Ark.
 
A couple of years ago it would have been something by Lynch, Sayles or the Coen brothers. Now it is The Lord Of The Rings Trilogy, even with part 3 unseen. It is a masterpiece and will be the benchmark for years to come. Peter Jackson has been elevated from cult status to cinematic visionary. I have watched my extended DVD of Fellowship more times than I can remember, and it never gets boring. Everything is perfection, not least the casting and acting performances. It must be near impossible to steal a scene from Ian McKellan as Gandalf, but good old Christopher Lee does it effortlessly.....

so....you have chosen the way of pain :eek:
