  Ponyo On The Cliff By The Sea (2008)

Click here to view this film's IMDB

This is a brilliantly magical film. If you haven't seen it, I recommend you watch the original Japanese. Don't get me wrong, the English dub has some big names (Liam Neeson, Cate Blanchett, Matt Damon and Tina Fey) but watching the English one means having to sit through the worst English dub of a theme song ever, and we have Disney to blame for that. But anyway, despite it all this film is amazing and recommended.

Here is the trailer.

My Neighbour Totoro (1988)

Click here to view a lovely review someone wrote about this lovely film =) 

And click here to view this film's IMDB page!

What a lovely, adorable film! The amount of times I've sat down and watched this and gone "awww" is uncountable! A lot of people say how it was the ultimate film of their childhood, it's so innocent. I wish I was one of those people, I feel like I missed out as I only discovered it quite late on, I think I was about 19/20 or something like that. But anyway, it's a really nice film and again the soundtrack is brilliant. The genius who is Joe Hisaishi has cracked it on this one. And him and Hayao Miyazaki (one of my ultimate favourite people!) have done a brilliant job. So proud.

Anywho, here is the trailer for you to watch.

Day 27 - Movie Month

 Battle Royale (2000)

Click here for this film's IMDB

A long time before The Hunger Games came out, the novel, Battle Royale, was released. Following on from the novel came a manga and finally the film of the same name. It's basically the same premise as The Hunger Games, in that kids are sent to fight to the death, with one survivor. And believe me, it makes The Hunger Games look like Peppa Pig.
EDIT: I also loved the soundtrack for this film, it's a nice mix of classical and original pieces and the version of Air on it is the best I have ever heard.

 Here is the trailer.

05) Battle Royale (2000)

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002)

I don't know what it is about this film, but it's my favourite of the series. It's funny, it's scary (giant spiders aaarggghhh!) and there's a house elf. Oh and Uncle Vernon falls out of a first floor window.

Here is the trailer.

Because we have now reached the top 15, I thought I'd give a quick glance and maybe some clues as to what's coming up!
4 foreign language films
6 animations
3 involving time travel
and 2 dystopian futures.
There is no horror, it's not that I don't like horror films, it's just not a genre a generally frequent. Having said that, Let The Right One In only just didn't make it here.
I've had some people guessing at what is in the list so far and you can keep guessing but some of the things I have been told are very very wrong. . .

There is one word that can describe this film, and I may probably get a few dislikes for it, but it's cool! And it was nice to see a little cameo from Leonard Nimoy as well.

And here's a bit of trivia for you. Chris Hemsworth (George Kirk) - who went on to do Thor and stuff - went into Star Trek off the back of the world famous Australian soap, Home and Away. So there you have it.

We are now into the top 20, yay! So things are starting to kick off, and these next few films are ones that came straight to mind when I was compiling this list so this is all me now.

Jurassic Park was THE film of my childhood. I watched it everytime it was on TV, and recall once getting annoyed when some friends came to the door asking me to play out, I only wanted to watch the dinosaurs!! I have now seen this countless times and am probably due another rewatch. Apparently they're on with number 4, again with Sam Neill, so we'll see how that works out!

Here is the trailer.

Shaun of the Dead (2004)

I was once asked by someone in school if I was allowed to watch this, as it was one of those lessons whereit was the end of term and nothing new to learn or something. I was sat there thinking, are they actually taking the piss?

Anyway, reminiscing aside, I must admit that this film took a while to get into but it's now up here on my favourite films list so it can't be that bad really. Enough of my prattling, here is the trailer.

The list so far:
28) Shaun of the Dead (2004)

This one is awesome. It's basically the story of how one insignificant song can change the world. But decades later. It certainly must be watched to be believed and the songs in it are fab too!! I've posted the trailer here, enjoy!

30) Fish Story (2009)

My movie month - Day 1

I was asked a couple of months ago if I wanted to take part in a challenge. A challenge? I asked. Yes, you pick a different film each day of a given month on order of favouritism. Now, it was a bit harder for me to order my favourite films so they are a bit more general but the top ten at least are all my very favourites. Now, time to reveal the film for day one!!

The Pianist (2002)

 Click here to view the IMDB for this film

I LOVE Holocaust and War films. I don't know what it is that attracts me to them but I am OBSSESSED. SUCH A FREAK! But anyway, there are few films that either make me cry or make me feel close to crying and this is one of them. But that is NOT what made me choose it! The screenplay is really well written and the direction is brilliant, well done Roman Polanski.

Here is the trailer for you to watch if you like, it's a beautiful little film and one well worth watching. (Just for copyright purposes, and it will obviously be the same with them all: I don't not own the pictures and sound, the credit goes out to the lovely people that made it. Thank you.) Enjoy.

The list so far:
31) The Pianist(2002)
