It Begins.... With my favorite films of all time.


So here it begins. My name is Myles Nelson and this whole blogging thing is pretty new and foreign to me so please just bear with me.  The main topic of this blog will most definitely be on films (reviews, thoughts, ect.) but I just want to start this by saying that I am indeed a Christian. I know that this is the internet, so there is really no way to avoid negativity but I don’t want to isolate anyone who isn’t Christian. Having a relationship with and following Christ is amazing and is the meaning of life, but I am not here to force that on anyone. There will be circumstances in which my worldview may impact the way I view certain films, but I hope to be one who looks at a film as a film. So if a film absolutely has no redemptive value while still is quite well made, I will acknowledge that its well made while warning people who might want to avoid it. That aside lets get into this!  Here are some of my favorite films of all time. (in no particular order)

Honorable mentions: Toy Story, Jurassic Park, Jaws, Forrest Gump, Monty Python's: The Holy Grail,  and many more.

1. Inception



2. Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark


3. The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (they are all one movie!)



3. The Good the Bad and the Ugly



4. Back to the Future (the original)


5. Pulp Fiction



6. Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back



7. The Matrix


8. The Dark Knight



9.    The Terminator

10. And finally Superman IV: The Quest for Peace 
jkjk I can't even type this with a straight face!

10. Here's the real final addition... Superman The Movie 

As you can see I really love drama's but the movies that really speak to me are more action and nostalgia oriented. All in all though, there are so many other movies I can put on this list isn't fair to just label these as "the" top 10.  I hope you guys enjoyed the first post. Stay tuned for another in a week or so from today!
