North by Northwest On Her Majesties Secret Service Get Carter [Post edited 27 Jan 18:55]

How could I forget Get Carter? I've only got a framed poster of the film on my wall FFS! But which one of my previously mentioned top 3 could I drop for it...

Top 3 films is impossible really, I could easily name a different top 3 every day. Maybe limiting to genres would be easier, top 3 action movies for example...

Mine would probably be:

The Bourne Identity
Taken
Extraction

Anyone want to start that thread? Or horror movies? Or romances? Or thrillers?

I also forgot A Kind of Loving (Alan Bates being ill over the back of the settee in front of a disgusted Thora Hird

just one classic moment) and Room at the Top, when I mentioned my 3 earlier - 3 is just not enough.

And Of Mice and Men.

I think we've done horror movies at some time recently - to above query.

Great thread. Really interesting to see the different films.

Some of the times I look at all 3 and think "How?" for all of them and then there'll be a post with one or two classics and the remainder(s) are leftfield by comparison.

But obviously there's no right answer. All subjective and personal opinion/preference.

I like the definition of most watched equates to favourite film as being, at least a good indicator.

In that respect the correct answer is;

1. Pulp Fiction
2. GoodFellas
3. Snatch/Lock Stock

Subs;
4. Saving Private Ryan
5. Life of Brian
6. Quadrophenia

And having read through the thread I watched Heat for the first time. A great film undoubtedly, lead by 2 legends, but the shoot out after the bank robbery and the final scene let it down for me.

No, three isn’t enough! Also, some of the films that fall into the ‘most-watched’ category - in my case anyway - are there because they’re so often repeated (and bear repeated viewing) on Freeview channels like TalkingPictures. I’m particularly fond of the ones set in urban locations (usually described as ‘gritty’) such as ‘Tiger Bay’ (Cardiff), ‘Jigsaw’ and ‘Brighton Rock’ (both, er, Brighton), ‘The Blue Lamp’ (London - Paddington & White City specifically), ‘Saturday Night & Sunday Morning’ (Nottingham). I could go on forever!

Also mentions for ‘Whistle Down The Wind’ and ‘The Hill’ (which springs to mind these days every time I begin the ascent into the Upper Loft - or is it ‘The 39 Steps’)?

I’ve refrained from mentioning ‘The Godfather’ before (a given, really) but I notice something new every time I see it. I’ve recently taken to switching on the subtitles while watching it and find I’m picking up a lot of stuff in the dialogue that has eluded me before.

Memento Goodfellas The Godfather

Gonna have another pop at this after people rightly pointing out most-watched (discounting Frozen, which my daughter put on every day before school). These were the ones on rotation with five lads living together in the late 80s/early 90s

Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
The Breakfast Club
Lethal Weapon
