Best Films Ever

I still have about 600 DVDs sat at home. And that's after I managed to get rid of about 500.
 
External DVD drives that connect via USB are pretty cheap these days.

Unless it's in 2160p HDR10/DolbyVision I can't stand it nowadays!!
 
Like Alan I didn't think I'd watched 40 films at the start of this thread....I've had a mare there, after coming up with 10 straight off, I've just noticed on other lists about 40 that would go into my top 10
 
Just remembered Deliverance, Con Air and 633 Squadron...oh and the Heroes of Telemark
 
Well here’s my top 100 - even made a compilation video of them as well (the things you do during lockdown) !

Not a big film fan but from a quick read through here I can't see Empire of the Sun anywhere.

Hope and Glory was a favourite of mine probably because I'm sad and liked the scene where Billy bowled his dad with a googly.
