Name one movie that is better than The Shawshank Redemption

[CodeBreaker]

You're switching TV channels and torn between watching The Shawshank Redemption and another movie on a different channel. What is that one movie that would make you refuse to watch The Shawshank Redemption, and choose that one movie instead?

 

[AgentSmecker]

Lots of them actually but either TGTBATU, Taxi Driver or The Road Warrior would be my top choices since they are my 3 GOATs and I've never seen them on the big screen.

 

[LockardTheGOAT]

Die Hard.

And Die Hard With A Vengeance.

I've never seen a Miyazaki film on the big screen. I bet these would be glorious.

 

[GeorgeO]

So many.

First two that come to mind: Aliens and Bladerunner. Never saw them on a big screen.

[Project 2501]

Anything made by Andrei Tarkovsky absolutely shits on shawshank redemption. What is up with uneducated and uncultured cans constantly claiming shawshank redemption is the best film ever? I bet they're the type of people that consider ketchup or mayonnaise seasoning.

I could name the movie or movies as the case may be, but then i'd get a lot of these replies.....

Shawshank is a quality movie, but there are still many i'd switchover to view, if on another channel.

 

[Turtlejuice]

I dont think The Shawshank Redemption would benefit all that much being on a big screen. Much rather watch something like alien, jaws etc...

 

[OverCoronavirus Pressure]

I would turn all the sound off and watch BR 2049 sooner than rewatch Shawshank with the sound on.
