Five Favorite Films with Jonah Hill

The Cyrus star stops by The Rotten Tomatoes Show.

With roles in this year's How to Train Your Dragon and Get Him to The Greek, which have both been Certified Fresh, Jonah Hill has continued to find success on screen since his earlier roles in films like Accepted and Superbad. With the recently Certified Fresh Cyrus and the upcoming animated flick Megamind expanding his filmography this year, Jonah Hill has continued pressing forward on his accelerated Hollywood career.

With an exclusively (and perhaps fittingly) Certified Fresh list of films, Hill took a break from his schedule to stop by The Rotten Tomatoes Show on Current to share five of his favorite movies. Check them out in the video below!

Back to the Future! Yay verily! I love them all. I don't care what anyone says, I love the second one for assuming the rest of time will look like the 80's and I love the third one for all the historical references and the wrap up. It's a great trilogy, in my opinion.

KILLADELFIA

KILLADELFIA on 06-23-2010 12:07 PM

Goodfellas IS perfect.

You hear the Big Lebowski is funny? Get on it man! Hilarious flick.

And YES BTTF is just ... awesome.

He's clearly joking. Come on, his name is an abbreviated Lebowski quote.

Great list, btw.

Nadav Raz

Nadav Raz on 06-27-2010 10:12 AM

haha, you guys are retarded, his user name is STFU donny.

Timotei on 06-24-2010 02:58 AM

Yeah, well, that's just like, your opinion man.

Super Bad.

ScytheofAzrael on 06-23-2010 01:21 PM

I see what you did there.

The Stunner

The Stunner on 06-23-2010 07:04 PM

yes, but can you see why kids love the taste of cinnamon toast crunch so much?

OH SWEET IRONY I WAS EATING CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH AS I READ THIS THANK YOU FOR THE SIGN, LORD! I WILL NOW DESECRATE THE FACE OF A POOR UNSUSPECTING CHILD WITH THE SWOLLEN MOOSE KNUCKLE YOU HAVE GIVEN ME!!!

Can't argue with any of those picks.

Emerald1234S

Emerald1234S on 06-23-2010 01:57 PM

Really good list. He's right about Back to the Future and Boogie Nights is a film people generally don't talk about very much despite how fantastic it is. And yes, I've got Goodfellas on my favourites list too.

DanielForth

DanielForth on 06-23-2010 02:20 PM

great choices!

waggaga1 on 06-23-2010 02:23 PM

Jonah Hill is cool.

K on 06-23-2010 02:24 PM

Out of this list I've sadly only seen The Big Lebowski and Back to the Future. I'm thinking I should watch the other three but I'll probably start with Goodfellas first.

You will not be disappointed

Dirk Diggler and Reed Rothchild are the porn names in Boogie Nights. To figure out your porn name take the name of your first pet and the name of the street you grew up in. Mine would be Tyson Watson.

infernaldude

infernaldude on 06-23-2010 11:02 PM

Mine would be Afro W. 31st. Kinda lame.

Timotei on 06-24-2010 02:57 AM

Muffin Dundonald? I doubt I'll get much work.

Bjornar

Bjornar on 06-24-2010 07:20 AM

What are you talking about? Muffin's a BA name for a porn star. I'd be Fred Oregon. Sounds more like a private detective(d__k) than a porn star.

M.C.P.

M.C.P. on 06-24-2010 10:39 AM

Mine would be Lucky Poplar.
Not bad?

There was a young actor called Jonah,
Who featured in a film about a stoner,
Knocked Up was the name,
About a man and a dame,
When he saw her, he always got a b....

Monty Plum Springs for me. Has a nice ring.

Lando Griffin

Lando Griffin on 06-23-2010 03:03 PM

Damn fine list, some of my favorites there.

decoren45

decoren45 on 06-23-2010 03:04 PM

That's an excellent list. His taste in film also reflects the film's that he chooses to star in

rle4lunch

rle4lunch on 06-23-2010 03:09 PM

Not bad at all. BTTF, how I miss thee and actual summer movies that had storylines and good acting.

jordan b.

jordan b. on 06-23-2010 03:20 PM

Rushmore is an awesome movie!

Chris L.

Chris L. on 06-23-2010 03:40 PM

Truth! Rushmore is definitely a different brand of comedy than what Hill was portraying in Superbad, so seeing this movie on his list of Fav Five totally brought up my opinion of this man.

will s.

will s. on 06-23-2010 03:46 PM

Pretty great list. Particularly pleased to see Boogie Nights up there.

Hollywood

Hollywood on 06-23-2010 04:09 PM

Sure as hell better than Joan River's haha

The Stunner

The Stunner on 06-23-2010 07:07 PM

hers was the best ever. totally original and i hadn't heard of any of those movies safe for her documentary.

The Tramp

The Tramp on 06-24-2010 08:13 AM

So what? How does that make for a good list?

Mike W.

Mike W. on 06-23-2010 04:38 PM

Fantastic list!

Goodfellas and Big Lebowski are both one of my favourites, too!
