Andy Oop North, I didn't see the 100 greatest movies last night but did catch it first time round and the No.1 was Star Wars!!?? What rubbish! Nobody seems to have included Dead Poets' Society a fantastic film and in my top 8, still deciding on the others' Tricia

Tricia/Suzanne I do like the original Star Wars trilogy but it wouldn't make a top 8 for me. Have seen the prequels but thought they were a load of rubbish.

HiHi Treating this like Desert Island disk 8, and I want to be Cheerful Think I'd go for:- What's New Pussycat, ... that Go-cart sequence, Classic! Young Frankenstien, ... "There's only one Marty Feldman!" Blazing Saddles, ... Madelin Kahn in Stockings! yes please! :-) Woodstock, ... But Not the Digital version, the Soundtrack is so, so BAD Kelly's Hero's, ... Donald Sutherland as a WWII Hippy, Magic! Cat Ballou, ... Lee Marvin's drunken gunslinger & Jane Fonda! The Wrong Box, ... Peter Cook & Dudley Moor + Spike Milligan!!! (Why isn't this out on DVD!!!??????) Moulin Rouge (2001), ... Coz I was so,so impressed with such a genuinly creative interpretation of a classic theme. Peter Jackson (Spit, stamp etc) eat your heart out, yes folks I know that's not how you spell the bit between Buttocks but this is a family show and Jackson is only passing through! :-) All the Best Peter

Hi all, Very hard to narrow it down to 8, I'll probably change my mind later. In fact i may have to watch my first choice this afternoon now, have'nt watched it in ages! GALIPOLLI (early Mel Gibson WW1 film that is heartbreaking) GONE WITH THE WIND. BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY. CRIMSON TIDE. PAY IT FORWARD. 6TH SENSE. GOODBYE MR. CHIPS. WE WERE SOLDIERS ONCE. Jane.

Almost impossible question to answer, as I love films so much, but I'd have to include... in no particular order... Some Like it Hot Almost Famous (LOVE that film, glad to see someone else mentioned it !!! Blade Runner Lord of the Rings Matrix (first one only, others are "pants") Star wars (the real one) Austin Powers Leon, AKA the Professional The Italian Job (original, although new one's not too bad !) the list goes on and on...
