Best ever

Plan 9 from Outer Space - an Ed Wood masterpiece. You should find and watch Dark Star - John Carpenter’s directorial debut, and as good a piece of sci-fi comedy as you’re likely to find. Unlike Ed Wood’s work, though, the comedy is purely intentional.

I agree with you that it is brilliant but an Action movie??

Not in the slightest. I was just replying to Scotty’s mention of another non-action movie.

War films : have to include Platoon and (anti war) Born on the Fourth of July.

Reservoir Dogs and Heat to add too.

It’s a good shout

I’ve seen it twice, the first time I found it utterly hilarious, was crying with laughter when he started surfing across space at the end. The second time left me baffled as to how I’d found it so amusing before. Looking back, I’m certain it’s to do with my states of mind at the time, I was in a really bad place mentally on that initial viewing.

You are all wrong as Apocalypse Now wins on all counts.

Your favourite is the best ever.
You can argue 'til the cows come home, it’s the only statement that counts and nobody else’s opinion matters.
I fell asleep during Star Wars, it means nothing to me, it’s not a favourite.

They have a point and it should be in the list. But like a guilty secret (eg The Great Escape) rather than a classic.

BBC News - How Top Gun: Maverick shocked the world

Guilty secret?? bugger off

When Top Gun first came out - everyone who saw it wanted to fly F14s

When I watched this one, I was googling the maximum age for RAF recruits afterwards
