Mike Cope has an interesting discussion going on at his blog regarding favorite movies. I am not a big movie fan — it has to be something really special (like the Lord of the Rings films) for me to take the time, trouble and expense to see a movie at the theater. Here is what I wrote concerning my favorite films:

The Lord of the Rings trilogy is high on my list, as is the first Rocky film (won the Oscar for Best Picture). Hoosiers, Field of Dreams and Miracle for sports films. Regarding Henry — a movie that preaches the gospel. A Christmas Story is one of my favorite holiday films.

One of the best scenes in a movie is the end of “Return of the Jedi.” Luke is trying to get his father — Anakin Skywalker (Darth Vader) off of the Death Star before it is destroyed. Luke says, “I’m going to save you!” Anakin says, “You already have.” Wow! Big time chills.

I would also have to put Caddyshack and Groundhog day in there, as well as Blazing Saddles and Monsters Inc. Also, there is The Passion of the Christ — but that would be in a different category, as it is not entertainment.
