1.trading places - if only for the line delivered by Ezra the waiter in the gentlemans club when given his xmas tip by the dukes , "five dollars , maybe I'll go to the movies........................by myself!"
I reckon my three are worse than yours AFKA. Problem is there are too many great films to make a top three out of. Love all the matrixs, american pies, basketball, shawshank, usual suspects, ronin, joe dirty, friday triology, la confidential, happy gilmore, billy madison, T2, Van Wilder, Seven...The list is endless.
1) Life of Brian - 'cos I'm a very naughty boy 2) Blazing Saddles - telegram for Mongo 3)= The Blues Brothers - Belushi and Ackroyd were superb and the music just perfect 3)= Midnight Express - remember first watching it in an open air cinema in Greece with Greek subtitles. The Greeks loved it!

How could I forget Team America, what a great film!! Might stick it on now actually...That and Lucky Number Slevin are the best two films I've seen in a long time! Gotta love a bit of Star Wars too, hehe
I wouldnt really know what to choose cos you choose films for different categories... but one film that i can watch time and again is As Good as it Gets. My two fave actors. watched it again recently.
Not everyone watches a film tine and time again - once I have seen a film I am unlikely to see it again for at least ten years if ever, no matter how good

la confidential (film of the day it seems)
I have seen many really good films that lose a lot of their appeal after the first viewing.
Se7en is one of those, Usual suspects suffers similarly. Both fantastic films, with great scripts but lose their lustre once you know the endgame.
Trading Places
My Cousin Vinny
2. Usual Suspects
3. Coach Carter
2. angel heart
3 the matrix
once upon a time in america
schindlers list
Highlander
Austin Powers or Life of Brian
I'm not much of a film buff but I'd go;
1. City of God
2. Kill Bill (probably at an advantage as I went to the Premiere of both parts)
3. Return of the Jedi
American History X
Goodfellas
However in no particular order......
Chariots Of Fire
Mrs Doubtfire (my kids have all loved this film and so it reminds me of them)
The 10 Commandments
