    Hey, I know this thread has been made twice before but they died long ago so instead of reviving one of them I will just start my own.

    I have not seen that many movies so I have been watching 1 movie a day for the past 2 weeks. Some of the best ones that I have seen are Ted, Talladega Nights, as well as the two Anchorman's.

    What are some of your favorite movies? (Note no spoilers please)

    check out any of the bolded, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is one of my lowkey favorites, there are also lots of random ones on that list so I wouldn't expect you to have seen a lot of them

    Moonrise Kingdom was very much a Wes Anderson film, my favorite of his is definitely Fantastic Mr. Fox

    Also I really like Desperado from your list, it was the first DVD I ever bought
