Umm I hate to be the bearer of bad news but you forgot the best movie of all time....HELLO, FINDING NEMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finding Nemo is good, but it's not the best of all time. The best animated movie is The Incredibles.

I'd have to agree about The Incredibles being better than Finding Nemo, though I like both of them a lot!
Remember the Titans is also one of my favorite movies

I agree, the Incredibles is Pixar's best work, closely followed (in my book) by Monsters Inc.
You picked some interesting movies there, Addison. Haven't seen the first two, but I have seen 2001. I just finished listening to the audiobook of it, actually. Weird movie, but, yeah, I kinda like it. Haven’t ever seen 2010, but it sounds interesting. Gods and Generals was okay, but I liked Gettysburg better (‘cause I root for the Union.) Pirates is an obvious choice, I agree with that. Glory was a really good movie, except for the cursing Irishman who I could have done without. The old War of the Worlds was good as I remember, but I haven't seen it in awhile. Remember the Titans is a great one, too... for a sports movie.

Yeah, the sgt in Glory did have a foul mouth. However, TVG is a great invention for such characters. The audiobook for 2001? I should like to hear that. Did you buy it? Or did you download it?

I got it from the library, actually. They now have a service which allows you to download audiobooks. They expire after 14 days, of course, unless you transfer them to an MP3 player.

The audiobook for 2001 is really interesting. It explains a lot of things that are hard to grasp from the movie, especially the weird ending part.
