Mine is Shooter, what is your's?

have to go with Star ship troopers could watch that movie till the end of time and it would not get old

I have to go with, Hard Boiled.

It's a beautiful ballet of bullets.

Wanted...just because it's silly.

Wanted...just because it's silly.

Shoot'em Up destroys Wanted in terms of silliness and it's got Clive Owen, Paul Giamatti and Monica Bellucci.. most extremely awesome action movie ever.

Sin City Because it's artistic...

and it has Clive Owen AND Bruce Willis.

RoboCop just 'cause he's fecking AWESOME!

Blade, awesome vampire shooter and Predator.

Boondock Saints, it is a terrible movie, but I laughed throughout the whole damn film.

Mine has to be...well at the moment the newest Die Hard. People say they don't like it but I love the retarded action bits. While it might not be my favorite Action movie overall (I like all action movies) it is probably my favourite retarded (story-wise) explosive Action movie.

The original Die Hard, or Taken. Liam Neeson kicking ass for 2 hours. What more do you need?

how the crap have you seen taken I admit it looks awesome but its not slated to come out for another month

"Shoot 'em Up" for me, its just just a mindless shooting fest and thats why i love it.

Haven't seen taken, but I was going to say the original Die Hard.
It set a standard for a lot of the modern genre, and outdoes them still.

Shoot'em up and Sin Ciry by far. I love those two movies. Sin city is artistic and deep, while at the same time being incredibly Violent. Shoot'Em up is just a trigger happy thrill ride, with lots and lots of bodybags filled with henchmen. xD

Sin City and Die Hard. They're fun.

Shoot em' up and Crank, so fucking stupid but i love them anyway.

Bloodsport. You can't go wrong with 80's martial arts films with such classic quotes as "You lose, American asshole!" and "You break my record. Now I break YOU.... like I break your friend."

True Lies is the best action movie ever. Bullets, Explosions, One-liners. That is my favorite movie ever...

Die Hard and the first Blade film. Love both of them...

Die Hard, Sin City, Hot Fuzz, or Casino Royale.

Don't make me choose...

"Now I have a machine gun, HO HO HO."

If we're going for novelty, why not "Batman and Robin?" You just can't beat Ah-nold's "it's time to kick some ice!"
The original "Matrix" is hard to beat in my book.

Die Hard, easily. 2nd on my list would be a Rambo movie though.

chimmers:
The original Die Hard

That just so happens to be favorite Christmas movie also.

Hands down all the way

Shoot em Up

Banlieue 13. Because Parkour is awesome.

ANYthing with Will Smith being a big obnoxious character (MIB, Independence Day, Wild Wild West etc).

The escapist chronicles : Death of 4chan.

Shoot em Up. "Eat your vegetables"

Definitely Sin City.

Fight Club, V for Vendetta and Equilibrium are the best "action" movies ever.
They're also the best movies ever.
