Yes, everyone listen to Lucas. As the Bond films have been always so realistic and seriously taken, with such moments such as...

Great to see other people I know watch Half in the Bag 
But no seriously, the old Bond films were hilariously unrealistic but that was those films. The new Daniel Craig ones are supposed to be alot more of a realistic and emotional reboot (like Nolan's Batman trilogy kind of)
The Princess Bride
Still love this movie.
"You mock my pain."
"Life is pain. Anyone who says otherwise is selling something."

That movie is AWESOME!
Totally. By the way, has anyone seen the 1971 Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory? If so, is it worth watching?
Yes. It's widely considered a classic.
(The remake is actually entertaining as well. People who liked the book don't usually like it though.)
You haven't seen Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory?
It's a really, really, really, really wonderful film. absolutely delightful! Every time I watch it my heart is filled with all sorts of happy fuzzy joyful feels and the whole world seems like a brighter and nicer place.
@Mighty Wanderer I actually just got it from the library. I don't remember exactly, but it's really good (and better than the Tim Burton one).

The remake is actually much more faithful to the book. Gene Wilder's version is still classic, however.

Definitely was worth my time.
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971)
Wow, that was great. Roald Dahl (who wrote the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) did the screenplay for the movie and designed the sets, and I was really impressed. Felt a lot like the book, too - but I guess that is the result of what I previously mentioned. Anyway, I really liked this and am definitely watching it again sometime. 
Anastasia (1997)
I don't know, all the romance bored me to death. But, I did like the action scenes.
4/10
The Great Escape (1963)
Really, really good. But, a little bit sad.
9/10

I seem to remember hearing that Roald Dahl was actually unhappy with the way the film turned out; whether that's true or not, I can't say for sure, but I always enjoyed that film, with the Oompa Loompas of all shapes and sizes instead of CGI little orange men.

Oh, you're right. Apparently Dahl disowned the film for numerous reasons. 
But even in spite of that, it still remains a very enjoyable film.
Batman Begins
Second time seeing this, still love this movie so much. It's great to see a really well done character arc for Bruce Wayne and how he became Batman. Also, something I feel this film has that the other two in the trilogy don't is that Gotham feels somewhat more stylized. Like it doesn't just feel like a generic New York clone or something, it feels kinda artsy at times. Overall great Story, great cinematography, great music, pretty great film.
The only complaint I could really have is that sometimes it goes a little too slow.

Yes, one thing I like in Batman Begins is the design of the sets and areas, (like the Himalayan Dojo, Wayne Manor, Arkham Asylum and the slums in the Narrows) which are a lot richer and more detailed than in TDK and have an--as you said--artsy, even slightly exotic, yet at the same time (in the case of the slums) a gritty feel to them. This is one aspect in which I think Batman Begins is superior to The Dark Knight.
Skyfall
This one was played out very well. I wasn't able to predict it and I had a good time with my Dad.
I really enjoyed the ending. Would watch again.
Wreck-It Ralph
I knew more of the games than my parents, though they probably didn't pay much attention to the arcade games.
Lovely movie, great morals. Man it was just a fun and amazing family movie. I was surprised at it.
Wreck-It-Ralph
Oh wow, that was so wonderful. ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTFUL! One of the best movies I've seen this year. Go stop what you're doing and go watch this film right now. Just go.
The animation and look of stuff was amazing. I loved how they did some funny stuff since it was a video game, though very cinematic, it almost felt like you were actually in a game at some points, in a good kinda way though. The references were hilarious, but even if you get none of them it's still very enjoyable because of the story and everything.
It was so good I cried.
At least twice.
And that doesn't happen to me.
Skyfall
Favorite movie in a while. Good scenes, I hope it's not true that Daniel Craig stops being 007. In my opinion he is the best ever.
Rise of the Guardians
I said this when I saw the trailer and my opinion remained the same after I watched the movie. The concept is terrible but the execution is marvelous. The idea of Santa Claus being a superhero is pretty much the most blah thing I can think of but the way they carried it out totally made up for that. The film itself was actually very unique and creative. It had loads of quirky touches (Slavic Santa- I had that idea a while back too!) and no boring bits at all. If the film had not such a dorky plot it would have been up there with How To Train Your Dragon (one of my favorite films of all time ) One thing's for sure, Dreamworks is definitely going up in quality and intelligence!
