Desert Island


milwaukeesportsfan

The idea is to pick the top 10 movies you would want to take with you if you knew you were going to be trapped on a desert island, ranking them 1 through 10. Now, even though you may have loved The Ring, or Million Dollar Baby, you have to ask yourself if it's something you would want to watch over, and over, and over, and over...well, you get the idea. After much deliberation, here's my attempt at picking 10 movies that I would want to watch, for the rest of my life.

 

10. Unforgiven

9. Rounders

8. Braveheart

7. Rudy

6. Aliens

5. The Godfather 2

4. Terminator 2

3. Goodfellas

2. The Shawshank Redemption

1. The Godfather

List is pretty much entirely from the past 20 years, which doesn't really surprise me as I was going for movies I think are "fun" more then anything.

"The Muppet Movie"

 

You have now become my new favorite poster. I love the muppets - and I'm not ashamed to say it.

 

10. Muppet Family Chirstmas (First 2 for the Holidays)

9. Muppet Christmas Carol

8. Hurricane

7. Dumb and Dumber

6. The Outsiders

5. Juno - if it comes out by the time I'm stuck on this island

4. Shawshank Redemption

3. Rudy

2. Good Will Hunting

1. The Muppet Movie

I think I would stick to mainly comedies, but I do really like sports movies...

 

10. Rudy

9. Wedding Crashers

8. The Last Boy Scout

7. Elf

6. The Great Escape

5. Super Troopers - it's so dumb but I just can't stop laughing at it

4. Stranger Than Fiction

3. Miracle - on an island, you might need a good pick-me-up

2. Major League - not on any other lists?

1. Good Will Hunting

 

I tried to pick a wide range of movies as I wouldn't want to get sick of the same stuff. In reviewing it...very very odd list.

10 Indiana Jones Trilogy

9 Team America: World Police

8 Anchorman

7 Miracle

6 Fantasia/Fantasia 2000

5 Saving Private Ryan

4 Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back

3 Bull Durham

2 Title not appropriate in this forum. They guys can guess what type of movie I mean. Unless a female is on the island with me.

1 Star Wars Trilogy

EA Sports...It's in the game...until we arbitrarily decide to shut off the server.

no real order to these, but if the Professor could make a radio out of coconuts, electricity and a DVD player should be no probelm.

 

1. City Lights

2. The Hustler

3. The Ten Commandments

4. The Wall (provided i can't bring music as well as movies)

5. Field of Dreams

6. Dr. Strangelove

7. Das Boot

8. A copy of Wrestlemania III

9. From Russia With Love

10. Night at the Opera

 

I originally thought Swiss Family Robinson would be fitting, but then I thought I'd probably get sick of an island-themed movie pretty quick.

I agree I'd probably want comedies I could watch over and over.

 

Dumb and Dumber

Office Space

Ace Ventura

Ace Ventura 2

Mallrats

 

And just cause I really like these:

 

Pulp Fiction

The Departed

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

Original Star Wars trilogy

 

It's 11, oh well.
