    E.T.

    I am absolutely charmed by the characters, the story, the optimism, and the connection to the unknown.

    I’ve got a three-way tie and I’ve never been able to promote any one:

    The NeverEnding Story
    Wall•E
    Watchmen

    I consider Watchmen one of the most perfect movies ever made.

    Clerks, because when I was 22 years before I ever saw that movie I to ran my convince store just like that. Also totally relate to the crap customers you deal with in that setting.

    One is not enough, and a lot of great movies where already named, still, some great movies are missing:

    • Heat (Michael Mann) Every single time I see it, it is brilliant and I discover something new
    • Jin Roh (The original animation movie), awesome atmosphere and only after the 2nd viewing one can really appreciate it
    • Near Dark (1987) Why the hell did nobody ever produce something like this ever again?
    • Miami Vice (Michael Mann), ‘Style over substance’, in a great way, although I have the shaky camera
    • Seven Samurai
    • Casablanca
    • Strange Days
    • Point Break
    • XXX (Nobody understood that it was a parody back in the days :-P)
    • What we do in the shadows
    • Brazil
    • Rocky
    • Eternal Sunshine …
    • The city of lost children
    • Leon the professional
    • Dolls
    • The Killer (The original of course)
    • The last unicorn
    • Dark City
    • The thing
    • The Lost Boys
    • Spirited Away
    • Donnie Darko
    • Rashomon
    • Brother (2000)
    • Parasite
    • Hatsukoi (First Love)

    … from the top of my mind. :-P

    Favorite is difficult and changes over time. But it’s gonna be one of these:

    • The Big Lebowski
    • Monty Python and the Holy Grail
    • Clerks
    • Tron
    • Airplane!
    • Die Hard
    • Escape From New York

    Now I think The Pianist is the best movie of all time, which is a different thing, but that newer movie 1917 sure competes.
