I loved Fight Club, but my favourite movie would have to be The Ghost And The Darkness. It's about a man sent to Africa to build a bridge but has trouble with the local wildlife harassing his workers. Scared the crap outta me when i first saw it (i was quite a bit younger haha). The original Matrix was pretty kickarse too, not just for the computer generated effects in it, but the the pretty conceptual storyline (weird for a semi-action movie).

Someone should mke a poll, worst 25 films of all time! Mine would be Torque, the motorbike one. That was, hands down, the cruddiest movie i've ever had the dis-pleasure of sitting through.

Oh yeah, how could I forget the original Matrix movie, I loved the storyline for that, just what is real anyway...

And that's a great idea about top 25 worst films of all time! My vote for WORST ever film would have to go to "Doppelganger": http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106753/

EDIT: After looking at some other peoples opinions on IMDB.com, it seems I am far from alone in declaring it the worst movie I have ever seen, particularly the ending, which totally ruins the film.

Oh, and this might be interesting to people: http://www.imdb.com/chart/top
