My vote goes to Lawrence of Arabia, after having just seeen it. Barely slides over Lord of the Rings for me... barely.

When you use the word "epic" you're referring to something like and epic poem(beowolf)?

If that's the case..., I choose 300 Spartans.

Are you defining epic by the wikipeida article? Then I would probably say The Thin Red Line

Cecil B. DeMille's Sign of the Cross from 1932 is a wonderfully decadent film disguised in the sheep's clothing of a religious morality picture.

Gotta be Shawshank Redemption

EDIT: Scratch that. I just read whta you linked. From epic films I will choose Star Wars and Troy. Aladdin, Lion King and Toy Story will be my next choice

Define Epic. I am going to take it as something that is action packed and bad*** :P. If so, I choose:

Taken

Just saw Immortals testerday and it is now my new favorite "epic" movie of all time. Beats out 300 in terms of fight scenes. And the stylization of the gods/titans is incredible. All of the costumes were great actually. Very metaphorical and extremely artistic. The use of color is stunning. And it actually looked good in 3D. The only problem I had with it was that they changed a couple things from the original myth but nothing I couldn't get around.

Depends on what context "epic" is used in. Many films come to mind like The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, Saving Private Ryan, Star Wars, and Spartacus.
