Top 3 Films?

Alien vs Predator
Robocop 2: Electric Boogaloo
Abba: The Movie

I'll second that list. He's done some fine movies.

Awfully hard to choose...

I think "In the Heart of the Sea" is a criminally underrated film...

1. Cocoon (1985)
2. Apollo 13 (1995)
3. The Paper (1994)

Rush, Backdraft, and Cinderella Man.

Apollo 13 is easily his best film, no doubt about it. It's also possibly his only true masterpiece. I love that film so much.

I'm cool with Rush taking a spot on his top 3 at all. That's also a very good movie that is underappreciated. It happens to be one of only four movies that I went to see twice in the theater.

It's picking #3 where I have to stop and think about it. I would need to see Far and Away again before I could render a final verdict, but for now I'm going to go with Cinderella Man.

Exactly! And why? Because they are based on true stories, and are the only times that Howard comes alive as a filmmaker.
