Trust me, if anyone suggests The Quiet Man as an example of real storytelling, just smack them for their own good. Personally, I'm with Sinead on this one. Love me some Terminator films. But my vote for the greatest movie ever would the Lord of the Rings trilogy. I know that's three movies, but who's counting?

Great sci-fi. Lots of action. But a fantastic romance. And also mind-bendingly interesting and thought provoking.<br /><br />And I agree that it used Arnold's [lack of] acting skills perfectly.Maureen McGowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00494408580378817045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29864506.post-49585400776283233922013-05-03T13:50:26.996-04:002013-05-03T13:50:26.996-04:00Loving this cage match.

And while I didn't hate Beaches, like Sinead, I'm going to have to agree about The Terminator. <br />I think it was the first movie that made me realize I could love a sci-fi action movie... Before that, I really only saw rom coms and dramas. So, really, I should credit that movie with my current career...Maureen McGowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00494408580378817045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29864506.post-18474878353205380272013-05-03T10:57:31.653-04:002013-05-03T10:57:31.653-04:00See Eileen - I can't even cage match because I...See Eileen - I can't even cage match because I too agree that Terminator ranks as one of the best movies evah!<br /><br />I'm a contradiction... mushy gooey crying movies... and killer robots. <br />Stephanie Doylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17448686465587131952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29864506.post-48901050553966725982013-05-03T10:20:02.909-04:002013-05-03T10:20:02.909-04:00Oh, Sinead, you big gooey romantic!
