P.S. I saw Sideways, and I think it's a good movie, but I also think it's the most overrated movie of the year.

Eug, I was totally going to make fun of this thread until I saw this:
Not an all time best movie, but really the all time best movie about Japanese Ramen. And a cowboy film to boot. I even had a Tampopo sig for a while:

Depends on how long ago the last "favorite movie" thread was. If it was more than six months ago I would think starting a new thread is appropriate.
It sort of makes me mad when someone revives an 18 month old thread to reply to the original poster's question when the original poster is probably not around anymore.

So many movies I haven't seen, and so little time...

RE: Tampopo...
Not an all time best movie, but really the all time best movie about Japanese Ramen. And a cowboy film to boot.
Actually the all time best movie about food IMHO. 
P.S. Nice ex-sig.
