Me too! I've seen all but the one's that I'm waiting to come out on DVD. Like "War Lord" and "Weatherman"
I can tell you the ones that I like the most though.
"Family Man", "It could Happen to you", "Raising Arizona", "Captain Correli's Mandolin","City of Angels", and "Moonstruck" and I'll throw in "Honeymoon In Vegas" as movies that I watch over and over again, just because I like his "average Joe" portrayals and the sentiment of these kinds of flixs.
"Zandelee" because I get to see "so much of him"....lol
"Con Air" because of private sentiments and how he is a prisoner just trying to get home to his family. (very close to my heart)
Then all the rest

I can't believe I forgot to add "Raising Arizona!!". DAMN! Where is my head?
OK, throw that one somewhere in the top 5, LOL. I should add that I even greatly enjoyed those movies at the bottom of the list, just because Nic always adds a lil' special something to every movie he's in that's too good to resist ;)

Damn I forgot another one I watch all the time. "Valley Girl"!!!!!! I was in love with Randy when I first seen this one.
I like all his movies, even friggin' "Kiss of the Vampire" (not really a great movie, but for how he seen to portray it)
I'm with you Trace, I just love what he brings to his movies. The little subtle idiocincrises (how do you spell that?..lol) he addes to his characters.

I'm always so excited to watch a new Nic movie, because it's like I'm getting to see a private little piece of his personality. If you're a Nic fan, every movie you see is a piece of a big puzzle that will eventually give you a picture of who he really is... but it always seems like one piece is missing, no matter how many movies you see.

I agree D! I think he definetly lets a little of himself fly in his films.
I'll try to make my list today sometime. Face/Off is number 1 for sure. But this is hard because each movie has favorite parts even if I didn't think the entire movie was the best (like Zandalee).
1. FaceOff
2.Family Man
3.Leaving Las Vegas
4.National Treasure
5.The Rock
Wow, this is really hard to do! I'll have to think about it more when my head is more clear.
