OK.. does "the best movie" ever only count when we have seen it  
the cinema?  What about home cinema?  Does a small 32" cinema  
screen count?  LOL

Despite that distinction, I concur with the LotR movies. I may  
have seen at least one of the 3 twice, but only because I was  
fishing for a particular storyline, an easter egg, and I because  
I wanted to see the dragon again!  :)

It is so hard for me pick just one film out of the many I've seen  
over the years.

In the past, I would settle down with one of the Leonard Maltin  
guides (in pocket book format) and just pick the highest rated  
movies for any particular genre. Then it would be a phone call to  
the local video store and ask if they have it.  I saw many fine  
"best movie ever" films that way.

Sometimes a particular film would enspire my to look up all the  
best rated films of a particular director or actor.  The Leonard  
Martin guide for $9.99 was invaluable for that.
