No WAY, man - that movie is one of the things that made me fall in love with him, not the other way around. Big Fish is a BEAUTIFUL movie.

There are just too many ... and I know that I'll keep thinking of movies and have to add to this.

For right now, I'm just trying to think of movies that I've watched a couple of times to catch the nuances, or movies that I just love so deeply that merely seeing a scene as I'm flipping through channels will cause me to stop and watch the movie from that point forward ...

(in no particular order)

Kung Fu Hustle
The Prestige
The Fifth Element
Star Wars IV-V-VI
The Great Escape
Airport
Cat Ballou
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan
Fight Club
Seven
The Passion of the Christ
Bringing Out the Dead
Backdraft
In Like Flint
Our Man Flint
Billy Jack
Full Metal Jacket
Silence of the Lambs
Psycho (actually nearly any Hitchcock film, but especially Psycho)
The Usual Suspects
2001: A Space Odyssey
Planet of the Apes (original)
The Deserter (which is a spaghetti Western, but I saw it as a kid and have loved it ever since)
Frankenstein
Dracula
The Wolfman
The Mummy (all the old Universal horror classics)
Mars Needs Women (I can't really explain this one, but the Mars Speech in the planetarium gives me chills.)
Pulp Fiction
Sin City
Johnny Dangerously
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil
