It's really more of a sequel to the events of the game rather than an adaptation, but yes, it's definitely a good movie!

That's probably a better way to put it, but brain was malfunctioning in the vocabulary department that day. Still doesn't change the fact that it's one of the better movie adaptations of a video game c:
 
Too many movies to name so here's a few (however anime movies not counted in this:)

Big Hero 6
The Three Flavours Cornetto trilogy (Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz, The World's End)
August Rush
Rise of the Guardians
Wreck-it Ralph
Pitch Perfect
Beck (Live Action)
GANTZ + GANTZ Perfect Answer (Live Action).

Can't think of most of them atm.
Time Traveller: The girl who leapt through time (Live Action)
 
1. District 9
2. How to Train Your Dragon
3. Slumdog Millionaire
4. Wreck-it-Ralph
5. The Silence of the Lambs
6. Chappie

And that's all I have for now. There are a lot of movies I like, but these would have to be my favorites.

8) The Shining (1980), dir. Stanley Kubrick
The last list had Dr. Strangelove, and I still love it to pieces, but I've realised that I think about The Shining on a much more frequent basis. The only horror film to have truly scared me to the point of nightmares, it's a marvel in that, unlike traditional jump-scare horror, it tells you well in advance exactly what it's going to do, and yet you're still terrified. I've only seen it once, but so much of it has been seared into my retinas that I feel that it's always been a part of me. Much like the Overlook to Jack Torrance!

7) Psycho (1960), dir. Alfred Hitchcock
Mistakenly categorised as a horror, when it's rather a brilliant double-character study/thriller, Psycho is Hitchcock's best by a country mile. It ratchets up the tension from the word go and never lets up for the entire run-time. The shower scene is, of course, magnificent, but everything that comes before and after it is just a joy to watch. And listen to! It contains possibly my favourite film score.

Love these two. The Shining is my third favorite Kubrick after 2001 and Barry Lyndon. I'll have to rewatch Psycho. I just watched Vertigo and it was mindboggling.

My favorites include.... Persona, Pierrot le fou, The Royal Tenenbaums, Synecdoche New York, and Mulholland Drive.

BABY

I could never put together a cumulative list, but I've got tons on my mind that strike me as particular favorites:
Secret Life of Bees
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Big Eyes
I Killed My Mother
American Beauty
Castaway
Weekend
North Sea Texas
Secret Life of Bees
Unbroken
Snow Cake

I can't write so much on all of them at the moment, but these came to mind as without a doubt movies I would cherish in a collection if I had them all. I intend on gathering all of my favorites and displaying them in a sort of non-religious shrine so that I can pass them on to some lucky heir when I die. :]
 
I have too many favorites. But most of the Nolan movies are on my list. Like The Dark Knight and Interstellar. Not sure if The Prestige and Inception count as my favorites, but they are still super great.

Best animated movies? Finding Nemo, The Lion King and Shrek 2.
 
I'm not really into movies but I will always love Good Will Hunting.
 
1. Once Upon A Time in America
2. The Godfather
3. Goodfellas
4. The Greatest Show on Earth
5. La grande belleza
6. Indochine
7. L'image manquante
8. Psycho (1960)
9. Wreck-it Ralph
10. TRON
 
Friday
Office Space
In Bruges
Pulp Fiction
Jersey Girl
Hitman
Ping Pong Playa
 
The Guard, Gran Torino, Drive, SuperBad, Pineapple Express, Children of Men, Gone Girl

Just to name a few. ;D

this could also reasonably fit into my list. it's weird because the first time I saw it I thought it was a generic, cool-guy-beats-the-shit-out-of-people crime thriller thing, but man was I so wrong. it's one of the most unique and philosophical straight-ahead thrillers that I've ever seen. plus its style is absolutely, like, insurmountable, and it's the coolest thing ever, and the soundtrack is extraordinary. it's a gem of a movie, really.
 
Some of my favorites are Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, The Lion King, How To Train Your Dragon, Mean Girls, and Napoleon Dynamite. I feel like I should say more, but I'm not interested in writing a novel today. :P

I loved it immediately. The mood, the music, the "twists" per se. I loved it since the opening scene.
