Horror / SciFi  = Alien ( I still wet my self and hide when the cat appears in the chain locker)

Comedy = Evan Almighty (watched this on plane from SA and got dirty looks for laughing out loud)

Action = True Lies ( ... and Jamie Lee Curtis doing her stripteese )

Love = The Good-Bye Girl ( Oscar winner, watch the wife cry at the end, then a garenteed cuddle)

Cartoon = The Jungle Book ( great sing along !!)

Best Movie Ever = The African Queen ( every thing you want in a movie{action, war, drama, love, suspense, and a nice twist at the end.} Plus good actors /actresses)

Villain.

Zulu.

Sci Fi - Highlander (the original, none of the sequal rubbish)

Horror - 28 Days Later

Comedy - Local Hero

Drama - Shawshank Redemption

Action - Ronin (it's on just now on 5 )

World Cinema - Das Boot

Childrens - Farm Yard

My all time favourite has to be Local Hero.  Having lived in that kind of stereotypical place (the Isle of Tiree in the Hebrides) it just makes me chuckle every time I se it as I see folk that I know and grew up with in every character.

• Sci-Fi: Blade Runner (OK, lost count of the cuts...), Contact and Solaris (Soberbergh/Clooney version).  While I like the original StarWars trilogy ultimately adventure set in space aint Sci-Fi!
• Horror: Alien and Wicker Man.
• Fantasy: The Lord of the Rings trilogy.  When will Peter Jackson turn his hand to Anne McCaffrey's dragon worlds of Pern?
• War: Saving Private Ryan.
• Action: Gladiator (extended edition) and Armageddon.
• Comedy: Hot Fuzz.

Hmmm tough choice

Sci-Fi: Blade Runner The Final Cut
Fantasy: LoTR
Horror: None they are all comedies to me, best laughs i ever have
Based on a True Story: The Killing Fields
B&W: Great Expectations (Sir John Mills version)
Drama: Shawshank Redemption
Gangster: Godfather
Action: Highlander
Comedy: 40 Year Old Virgin

Impossible to answer. Don't have just one....but have got hundreds on hundreds of dvd's. All comes down to mood. So rattling some off the top of my head now I'd have to say:

Devil's Backbone; by Guillermo Del Toro ( he of hellboy fame etc) This film has the lot.

Adventure, Raiders of the lot Ark,  Harry Potter films. Sherlock Holmes (Old Basil Rathbone versions)  

Scifi: I love most scifi and collect all I can find...faves is tough. Them!,  Fiend whithout a face, Bladerunner, Day the earth stood still, The Abyss.

I also like Leon, Jaws, Pulp fiction, Angel A: Tim glad you enjoyed it...great B/W

Western: Tombstone, Once upon a time in the west.

War: Anything with John Miles in. Also Saving Private Ryan, Zulu.

Animation: The Incredibles.

Horror: Hellraiser.

Bond: You only live twice.

Comedy: Tough one...they fit more into guilty pleasures...Overboard, How to murder your wife.

If I had to cut it down I'd go with 'Devils Backbone' and 'leon' at the moment.

OldBoy:

... anything by John Woo

Comedy: Ealing comedies, Uncle Buck, Planes, trains and automobiles

Hard Boiled is possibly one of the best films that John Woo has done.  I think that I read somwhere that it used to hold the record for the largest bodycount in any film made for a while

John Candy was a genius, I love Planes, Trains and Autombiles:

"Those aren't pillows!!!!!!"
