Following on from Mr Sussex's obsession with Mad Max (does he mean Mad George?) whats the best film ever?

There are five categories for the Bunker awards:

Action Film
Soppy Film
Crime
Intrigue; (JFK, All the Presidents Men etc)
Sci Fi film

For me:
Heat
Ghost
Godfather 2
Presidents Men
Terminator 2

Action Film- Armageddon

Soppy Film- Monty Python & The Holy Grail*

Crime- Oceans Eleven

Intrigue- Halloween

Sci Fi film- Alien

* OK technically not a soppy film, but as I don't like/watch soppy films and I HAVE to have Monty Python & The Holy Grail in any list I make of my favourite fillums then this is where I choose to put it.

Is it any good like? I've never seen it!

Salty · **Posted:** Mon Mar 19, 2012 1:25 am

I dont think any of my favourite films fit the categories...perhaps pulp fiction or reservoir dogs for crime?!
withnail + I for soppy????

I'm stuck after that.......would "in the name of the father" fit intrigue? it certainly fits injustice...

I'll join the Withnail bandwagon-not sure where you'd classify it?

Action Film - Die Hard avengance / Predator
Soppy Film - Blow
Crime - Godfather II
Intrigue; Inside man or matchstick men
Sci Fi film; Bladerunner

Action Film - Zulu
Soppy Film - Withnail and I
Crime - Taxi Driver
Intrigue - Frenzy
Sci Fi film - Bladerunner

The categorisations are very subjective - Frenzy could also come under crime and Withnail and I isn't really a 'soppy' film but should be in the list somewhere...

Withnail is the best fillum ever, and anyone who disagrees is a terrible c**t.

PS best Western?--The Unforgiven!

Best Western for me would be the remake of True Grit. I would also include No Country for Old Men and Midnight Cowboy in there somewhere. Best Christmas fillum would be Bad Santa.

crime - Dirty Harry still a classic even after 40 years, even if it was deliberately written to make it so easy to hate the psycho in it. Eastwood's one liners usually crack me up
