My top 5 favourite films

Now I bet you are thinking that is an easy one right? Guessing my favourite films should be simple because I am living breathing geek cliché. The list will be something like:

  • The Empire Strikes Back
  • Aliens
  • Terminator
  • Back to the Future
  • Jurassic Park

Right? Wrong! Felt a bit like Lex Luthor then. In your defence I do like all those films a great deal and I’ll often say they are amongst my favourite films of all time. Indeed, I’d put them in the top 10/20 easily. So you want to see my real top 5 films list? The films I really like are:

  • High Fidelity
  • Almost Famous
  • Chasing Amy
  • Easy A (This is new entry)
  • Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind

Not a spaceship, explosion, superhero or CGI monster between them. A shocking revelation to many I am sure. Though I am disturbed that these are all quite popular with critics and the list makes me feel more than a little pretentious.
