movie list meme

[bluegreen17]

from _peregrinus_

Rank the following movies in order, from COULDN'T LIVE WITHOUT to COULDN'T CARE LESS. To add value to this process, you must also add two movies to the list, and remove two movies from the list, before passing the meme on (including these instructions).
it's a wonderful life*
priscilla,queen of the desert*
lord of the rings
empire of the sun
casablanca
fight club
star wars
the matrix
labyrinth

* = added

Removed:
the power of one (i've never seen it)
office space

i'm sure i'm forgetting something! i think my sister sara will be shocked that i didn't add in 'braveheart',which is a beautiful,wonderful movie,but i'm more into 'feel good' movies these days.

EDIT: i forgot patch adams and rattle and hum,which should fit in above priscilla. i could live without the matrix and labyrinth.

empire of the sun is an amazing movie about surviving. i didn't like the book,though,which is unusual. fight club is great and it has tons of psychological angles to it...you might want to check it out since you're studying psychology! and casablanca is just a wistful wonderful old tragic love story.

awakenings is good,but it's so sad in the end. gone with the wind never did much for me,though it is beloved by many! i wanted to add more than two myself...i forgot patch adams and rattle and hum!

don't waTCH POWER OF ONE!! ewps caps lock! The book is one of the best things I ever read and the film was a dreadful disappointment.

thanks for the warning! i might take a peek at the book though.

Braveheart

..you know, I haven't watched Braveheart in AGES. That is highly unusual for me. I guess I am starting to look to other things too...finally, after 8 years! I still put it at the top, but ask me six months from now and it could very well be lower on the list. The Lord of the Rings movies have a very special place in my heart..And Wings of Desire.Monsoon Wedding. Fearless. Sling Blade. The Hours.

rattle and hum

[bluegreen17]

and i can't believe i forgot 'rattle and hum'! maybe it's because it's not really a story...because i think that would be probably second on the list.

I forgot it too, for the same reason...it certainly IS one of my favorites.
