      Suggest me a movie! :-)

      I'm in the mood to watch an absolutely fantastic movie.
      I want an amazing movie. A movie that will make me cry aswell as make me laugh. A movie with intense drama and a well written plot (perhaps even a really twisted and brillinatly confusing plot that finaly makes perfect sence in the ending)
      It can be any kind of genre except for chick flick or horror. If it has an element of fantasm or maybe even a relation to lucid dreaming that would just be even more fantastic!
      So as they say: Hit me!
      I wanna be a rockstar
      And I wanna lucid dream
      Guess I'll just start
      By playing music in my dreams

      Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.

      Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind.

      It doesn't have anything to do with Lucid Dreaming explicitly - but a lot of the movie is played out in the character's Dreams. If you havn't seen or heard of this DONT BE TURNED OFF BY JIM CARRY PLAYING THE LEAD. He is GREAT in this movie.

      The Science of Sleep is also by the same people, but not as good as Eternal Sunshine.

      The Graduate
      Easy Rider (phenomenal, but don't expect much of a plot to kick in; probably my favorite movie)
      The Godfather
      Goodfellas
      Menace II Society
      Boyz N The Hood
      Carlito's Way
      Pulp Fiction
      Reservoir Dogs
      The Last American Virgin (80's teen comedy drama gold)

      None of those are lucid dreaming or fantasy movies, but for the other stuff you requested, those are the greatest movies I can think of. I very highly recommend all of them.

      Excalibur is the greatest fantasy movie of all time, in my opinion. It has awesome drama and top notch acting, but there isn't much comedy in it.

      Vanilla Sky might be something you are looking for.

      If you want pure comedy that will make you laugh so hard you can't breathe, my top suggestions are Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Monty Python's Life of Brian, and Kentucky Fried Movie. I don't think anything else touches the level those three are on.

      Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Dazed and Confused are some really entertaining movies about high school social life. They involve drama and comedy, but not the knock you on your ass kind. They are just a lot of fun to watch. They're more amusement oriented than anything else.

      If you want to see some pure drama that will mess with your mind for days after you watch it, Schindler's List and Ordinary People are my top picks. Don't expect to laugh while watching them.

      You might have seen a lot or even all of those, but those are my favorite movies.

      The Butterfly Effect, speaks of a protagonist who's able to travel back in time to fix several parts of his life but every time he tries to change something, things get even worst, thus the butterfly effect.

      Love Me If You Dare, it's a French movie, brilliant plot, I would never have guess it's ending.

      I think the french title is something like "Jeux d'enfant." Fantastic movie, I would also recommend this.

      Yes it is! I don't speak French so I thought I should type it in English, searching for the English title leads you to the right movie too.

      The Truman Show is in a very similar vein.

      Casablanca! I am appalled such a masterpiece has gone unmentioned thus far.

      I cant believe no-one has suggested Lord of the Rings yet.
      Lord of the Rings: Fellow ship of the ring
      Lord of the Rings: The two towers
      Lord of the Rings: The return of the king

      Others i would suggest:
      The last samurai (Tom Cruise) Epic movie with emotional parts and unbelievable music.

      If you don't mind anime, check out Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, there's both anime series and anime film versions, but it's definitely the most amazing anime i ever seen in my life.
