for me, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade has always been by far my favorite movie, followed closely by the first Indi movie.

but just last night i watched Empire of the Sun.

this is right up there with The Last Crusade. such a touching movie. i had no idea that was Christian Bale when i caught a minute of this movie many months ago.

anyway, my wife was crying throughout so that's when i knew it was going to about top my list of favorite movies. :D


so what's your FAV Spielberg film?


p.s. if you saw Rescus Dawn remember when Bales character said he knew the moment when he wanted to fly? i don't think it was a coincidence that it reminded me and others about the scene in Empire towards the end.


Esther's here and she's sick?

hi Esther, now we are all going to be sick, thanks

  • Jurassic Park is Spielberg, right?

    Yep, Jurassic Park.

    VERY CLOSELY followed by Close Encounters.. actually they're about tied.

    Robert Zemeckis actually directed those (but Spielberg was an executive producer or something). Back to the Future is actcually my favorite movie, though.

    Nah, Last Crusade.:p Nothing beats Harrison Ford and Sean Connery having their petty little conversations in that film.
    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

    I forget why... but in my English tutorial last year, I started reciting Othello while doing my best Sean Connery impersonation. It was confusing and wrongheaded, but it made me laugh my elbows off.:D

    A.I. is a great movie! I know alot of people who thought it was horrible. I would put it in my top 5 Speilberg movies, top 10 of all for me.

    He's been involved with so much GREAT stuff. But if I had to choose, I 'd go for Saving Private Ryan, such a great movie...but then Jaws was awesome too..you know,... and Jaws 2 was too.
    I came, I saw, I concurred.....

    Duel and Jaws. I can watch those over and over. :)
