From time to time, we like take a break from technology news to query our readers to find out details about our community. Previously, we asked you to show us your desktop. This time, we ask "What's your favorite movie?" Is it sci-fi or comedy? Action or maybe drama? Share your favorites so we can check them out! I'll start: while I'm tempted to say The Red Violin, I'm not sure there's a better screenplay than The Usual Suspects.

I'm totally with you on that. It really set the stage for the 'epic trilogy' that we're now seeing so much of (X-Men, Spiderman, LotR).

I think epic trilogies are more likely inspired by Star Wars. '80s had a lot of such long movie series.

Right on, there were some great adventure-comedy films in the 80s. Someone has mentioned Indiana Jones already.

And we can't forget Ghostbusters! Some of the best lines ever:

"Listen! Do you smell that?"
"When someone asks if you're a god, you say 'YES'!"
