OmegaManwicH's favorite movies

Greetings Programs!

People ask me all the time what my favorite movie is and I always feel like a parent who was just asked to pick their favorite child!  Movies are the biggest hobby that I have, along with board/card/geeky games.  I mean, I own like 500+ DVDs and 200+ Blu Rays, so asking me for my favorite movie is a bit like opening Pandora's box...

Only part of the collection

I used to list out my top five, but it had so many ties in it that it had 15+ movies. Now I just list my favorites by genre like below. This list is not definitive, nor is it all of the genres that are out there, and will most likely change by the end of the month... it is always in flux, and as you will see, I still can't avoid ties...  

You can click on each picture to see the corresponding theatrical trailer.  Enjoy!

There are definitely more genres and genre combinations I can come up with favorites for, but that should give you the general idea of what my favorites are.  So what do you all think?  Am I insane?  What would you choose for your favorites?  Let me know in the comments section below. </shameless fishing for comments>  

Until next time... are you not entertained?
