What is your favorite Ridley Scott movie?

[Goliath]

Blade Runner.

Although, like T'Baio, I really like Black Rain as well. I would probably rank it number 3, after Alien.

 

[OdoWanKenobi]

Alien would be my pick, with Blade Runner right after.

 

[Admiral2]

Gonna go with ALIEN.

 

[stj]

Thelman and Louise beats out Blade Runner, narrowly.
Both are well ahead of Alien, Kingdom of Heaven and Legend.

Gladiator, a boring remake of The Fall of the Roman Empire (starring Alec Guinness, Stephen Boyd and, I think, Sophia Loren,) spiced up with a Jay Robinson impersonation from The Robe, and bits of Ben-Hur, Cleopatra and Quo Vadis?, may have won a an Oscar but couldn't keep my attention to the end. Legend was more interesting than this.

Top three

Gladiator
Kingdom of Heaven (DC)
Blade Runner

Ditto!

Am I the only one who liked 1492: Conquest of Paradise?

I haven't seen 1492 in ages, but I do remember the sumptuous cinematography, and the score by Vangelis is one of my faves.

 

[MyCylon]

Easily "Blade Runner". For me, personally, there's no competition there really.

It's been forever since I've seen it as well, but I do remember loving those two aspects of it.

 

[Sky]

1. Blade Runner
2. Alien
3. Thelma & Louise (although I don't like the ending)

 

[Kegg]

Alien. No question. One of the best sci-fi films out there; for all its many brazen imitators and sequels.

 

[KB24]

Alien, then Blade Runner and perhaps Black Hawk Down. Recently his work has just gotten too full of himself or been over Croweified. ;0)

 

[Harvey]

Blade Runner, though Alien is a close second. I haven't seen all of his films, though.

 

[zakkrusz]

I'm going with Gladiator.

 

[EnsignRicky]

Alien, Gladiator, Blade Runner, The Rest.

 

[melinawaugh]

Ridley Scott is one of my favorite director..Blade Runner, One of my favourite movies. Alien hands down. the only other movie on that list that has had a impact like this movie did is blade runner. but i like alien also..

 

[Kestra]

I'm beginning to think I need to watch Alien.

 

[Jack Bauer]

I went with Alien though I could've gone with Gladiator.

 

[species5618]

Blade Runner, though Alien comes pretty damn close.

This.

 

[Rii]

I've never been quite as impressed with Blade Runner as most others are. Probably because we had to study it in school.

 

[Deckerd]

We had to do Graham Greene. I win I think.

 

[Rii]

The Quiet American? We did that; the novel that is.

Which reminds me: The Third Man and Sophie's Choice are two other films forever tainted for me by my initial exposure to them being within an educational environment.
