15 favourite films (off the top of my head, via Danni Antagonist)

The rules: Don't take too long to think about it. Fifteen films you've watched that will always stick with you. List the first fifteen you can recall in no more than fifteen minutes. Tag fifteen friends including me, because I'm interested in seeing what films my friends choose. (To do this, go to your NOTES tab on your profile page, paste rules in a new note, cast your fifteen picks, and tag people in the note.)

oh, and btw: in absolutely no particular order.

1. Funny Games (original)
2. Time of the Wolf
3. Dancer in the Dark
4. Come and see
5. Bladerunner
6. eXinstenZ (yeah, I know, not his best, and Jude Law to boot, but great ideas, visuals and supporting characters)
7. Dawn of the Dead (original)
8. Total Recall (and proud of it)
9. Aliens (see above)
10. Dune (see number 6, replacing 'Jude Law' with 'Sting')
11. Europa
12. Care Bears' adventures in Wonderland
13. Crank. (Hilarious. Crank 2 is a bit far-fetched)
14. Aguirre, Wrath of God (shits on Apocalypse Now).
15. A Kurosawa. Probably Seven Samurai just to be unoriginal.

I will of course change my mind, or perhaps you'll change it for me. I wanted to put 'Shoot em up' in there for pure lols, Terminator 2 or Die Hard 3 for pure Hollywood Action and Sin City because it's the best cartoon film ever, but....

I'm not a fan of Citizen Kane. I know it's because every film since it has copied it that the form seems less than breathtakingly original, despite being the original, but still...

I was joking about 12. Dr Strangelove.
