Jedi Movies?

Lord of the rings

And I don't mean aragorn who undeniablybwas noble of heart and strong.

I mean Sam in terms of loyalty and courage

The men who stare at goats is a jedi movie. here

A movie with a good moral, struggle and the typical "heros's adventure" and I think would make a good Jedi movie is "Glory."

I like a lot of the ones already mentioned, but I'd like to add...

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon

It always makes me feel at peace.

Peaceful Warrior
A Knight's Tale
Ikiru (Kurosawa)
Seven Samurai
Justin and the Knights of Valour (cartoon)
Rise of the Guardians (cartoon)

There are also a lot of movies with almost Jedi morale - some old and some new blockbusters (Terminator2, C. Nolan's Batman Trilogy)

13th Warrior is on my DVR...

Antonio Banderas, one of his first movies...

I love what he says before the final battle.

"Merciful Father, I have squandered my days with plans of many things. This was not among them. But at this moment, I beg only to live the next few minutes well. For all we ought to have thought, and have not thought; all we ought to have said, and have not said; all we ought to have done, and have not done; I pray thee God for forgiveness."

Follow that with the Norse prayer and, wow. That movie is seriously underrated.

I know this thread is about movies, but the TV show M*A*S*H* taught me so much about how to live my life. Between Hawkeye, BJ, Father Mulcahey, Klinger, Radar, and Colonel Potter you pretty much have my education as a child. I'd say the at least helped make me more Jedi if not counting as rather Jedi themselves.

For some reason, I want to add Dark City (preferably the Director's Cut without the narration).

Much of the movie is about the main character discovering who he in relation to the world around him, while learning what it means to be in control of his mind and reality. The protagonist is immediately thrown (born) into a universe without knowledge of self or his surroundings, and finds his way to a state of complete and total understanding that is accompanied by a desire to change things for the better.

At first I wasn't sure if the film represented the ideal hero's journey as much as simply one falling down the rabbit hole and becoming a hero through necessity, but then I referred to Campbell. In The Hero with a Thousand Faces Campbell states:

"A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder: fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won: the hero comes back from this mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on his fellow man."

That statement seems largely accurate and appropriate when considering Dark City.

The 36th Chamber of Shaolin , also known as The Master Killer and Shaolin Master Killer, is a 1978 Shaw Brothers kung fu film directed by Liu Chia-liang and starring Gordon Liu.

The film follows a highly fictionalized version of San Te, a legendary Shaolin martial arts disciple who trained under the general Chi Shan, portrayed by Gordon Liu.
