WS Fave Five Series~! - Movies of 1997

[Kairi HoHo]

Not better the original but shit Scream 2 rules I feel. Sidney and gang having to survive College life from two Killers and I didn't expect Billy's Mother as a Killer love that twist when I first saw it because her Character was sprinkled during the Movie but she never gave off a Character to that point as someone who could be a Killer.

Liar Liar narrowly missed my top 5 so I’m happy to see it registered here and so high too.

Face off didn't make my list but thrilled to see it here!

The thing all those movies have in common is I've replayed them all several times over, and I end up enjoying them just as much as the first time. Liar Liar at one point I just kept playing the DVD over and over again, I loved it that much. Not only is it incredibly funny, but there's some really sweet heartfelt moments. Movie that makes you really think, whilst also being able to make you laugh at the same time. It's one of my favourite Jim Carrey roles.

I'd say Scream 2 is on par with the first movie in terms of quality, if not better in some aspects. I prefer the killer reveal of the first movie, but I think Sarah Michelle Gellar's death scene is one of my favourites in the entire series. She put on a hell of a performance, and you really root for her to survive. It's such a tense scene. I also always really liked the opening scene in the movie theater.

Face/Off is to me the perfect action movie. Doesn't take itself too seriously, but it's just a fun ass ride with two huge stars in the leading roles. Plenty of amazing moments, characters literally using golden guns in gunfights. I just find the whole thing incredibly entertaining. You can tell everybody had fun making the movie, and it really shows. I also dig the way the movie was shot, and how the action scenes are presented to the viewer. It's to me the peak of 90's action movies.

Yeah Randy's Death man kills me every time in Scream 2. One of the most violent and finding out it was Mickey makes sense after their argument in Class it was even more personal for him.

Big props to Jeff, Fourth and Booty for that Jackie Brown and Fifth Element love!

 

[Comrade Khan]

Jackie brown is so good, too. Great pick by those guys!

Multipass!

 

[Marty McFourth]

Props to you for that Fifth Element love too!

Chris Tucker owned that role he had in that.

When I first saw Chasing Amy I was a young Teenager in 2002 and it was at the time of course I was going through Puberty and starting to take interest in girls. You ever saw Films that you saw when you were younger than you watch it later and you understand it a whole lot better once you've gone through the trials those Characters went through?. Yeah when I was a kid the Movie's importance went over my head but once I became an Adult and had life hit me I totally got what the Movie was telling me when it came to relationships.

Chasing Amy is a goddamn masterpiece

Can’t think of any others that could top Titanic so I’m genuinely interested for the top vote winner

 

[Marty McFourth]

Remember watching Titanic for the first time, just wow. By the end of it I just couldn't stop thinking about it for days, it had such a profound effect. Such a lovely story with a lot of emotional moments. Adore the cast too.

Love this scene:

Fucking watch Princess Mononoke now if you haven't seen it people
