    Good call, I think Hoosiers is a better movie, but those were fun and "favorite" movie is obviously all about that.

    I had American Beauty in the drama category, then took it out. It's one of my favorite movies of all-time.

    If I went strictly Top 5 w/o any genre, in no particular order, I've got:

    The Godfather
    Reservoir Dogs
    American Beauty
    Pulp Fiction
    Seven

    Kevin Spacey is amazing. One movie I haven't seen in here is The Usual Suspects. Always a very underrated movie.

    Somebody had it in there before. They must have edited it out. I agree, it was a great movie.

    I had the usual suspects the next to the godfather. It was too close for me to call. Spacey was great in seven as well.

    Good idea! Is The Wrestler a sports movie? If not, then I vote Vision Quest!

    Comedy: Office Space
    Drama: The Departed
    Horror: I Am Legend
    Action: The Matrix
    Thriller/Suspense: No Country for Old Men
    Sci-Fi/Fantasy: Star Wars/LOTR (taking all as 1 story)
    Animated: Kung Fu Panda for computer animated and Vampire Hunter D- Bloodlust for traditional animation.
    Sports: Ip Man/Ip Man 2
    War: Red Cliff (part 1 and 2)

    It was hard to pick one for each category, and I may change my mind on some later, but this was off the top of my head.

    yeah, seemed necessary given this forum. Plus, Hoosiers is easily one of my top 5 all time favorites. and that was before I spent 5 years in school in Bloomington.
    Funny, as a kid, my favorite sports movie was Breaking Away, another Hoosier movie.

    I like Major League a lot, but if I can only pick one sports movie (or one series of sports movies), it doesn't make the cut.

    Fantasia is definitely a classic that I might have to change to on my list.

    (only got to see two disney movies growing up and that was one of them)
    another one for drama: Glory - great movie. definitely competitive or better than my original choice of Dances with Wolves
