List your all time favorite movie from each genre or movie type. Just copy the list below and put the favorite movie of that category. If you don't have a favorite for any of the below listed types, you can leave it off, or put "don't have one" or even put "don't have a favorite but liked...". If you have a favorite movie that falls under more than one category, list it twice or however many times. (BTW, if you're wondering what constitutes "Classic B&W", I would say any black and white movie made before 1970.)

Nice lists people. Gotta point some things out:

Oriasten - you're probably the first person in history to ever classify Star Wars as a drama. Congrats. Applause

Listing "any movie by..." or "all movies" does not constitute a favorite! Pick one of those! Nerd

NEXTLVL - I'll let slide Gone with the Wind. Even though it's in color, it is quite the classsic. But while Clerks is in B&W... not made before 1970. I didn't mean "Classic" and "B&W" as two separate things requiring two different movies. Shame on You

CCRob - Same thing with Schindler's List (plus parts of it were in color)

Well I have heard it called Space Opera before, and I needed a drama movie and drew a blank.


And oh sure STEAL my idea if using Citizen Kane, (I checked the spelling, its a K). I didn't have much to choose from, the only movies before '70 I have seen is Wizard of Oz, all the Disney toons, Sound of Music ........... um, My Fair Lady ........... it gets real fuzzy after that so I am betting that's about it.

Heh.

But in all seriousness a Spider-Man musical is in the works.

The woman who directed 'Across the Universe' is directing.

She's pretty good.

Yes icarus, The Longest Yard counts as a sports movie. And NEXTLVL, Spider-Man 3 can be considered a musical if that would be your favorite. Smug
