Suggestions for Movie Titles


During our first meeting, we tried out some different activities we can use in our classes to motivate students to understand and use the English in motion pictures. Most of the activities used two to seven minute clips of popular movies that we would need to play in most cases at least three times.

Here are some titles to get us started. Post a comment with other movie titles or TV shows!

The Patriot, Erin Brockovich, ET, Signs, Star Wars, KPAX, Pay It Forward, Shrek, Babe, Pirates of the Caribbean, School of Rock, Clue, Freaky Friday, Good Will Hunting, The Incredibles, The Little Mermaid, Sweet Home Alabama, Toy Story, Harry Potter, Finding Nemo, Indiana Jones, Gandhi, Dead Poets Society, Max Dugan Returns, Mr. Holland’s Opus, Election, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Instinct, A Few Good Men, Gladiator, Forrest Gump, Stepmom, I am Sam, Bowling for Columbine, The Green Mile...

hi Russell,
there are so many movies of high value of which i feel they affect our life and thoghts. we may learn many of the vlaues that are included in the movies. one of the most affecting movies i have ever watched is Brave Heart. it has really affected and touched me. i think Mel Gibson is amazing. the writer is also great. the whole thing has taken my breath. we may use it to discover about the scottish english and their values.
