Use of "Favorite"

Okay, I realized the other day that I don't know the construction for the use of "Favorite". So I checked out lingvo, and this is what the query brought up:

. прил.; тж. favorite

1) излюбленный, любимый, наиболее предпочтительный

2) возлюбленный

So, my question is this: which is the appropriate use in the casual sense? I.E. My favorite movie is....

Thanks!

Мой любимый фильм в детстве - "Кошмар на улице Взяов". :-)

So you can say something like:

Когда я младщий, мой любимый фильм был "Бамбй"

or

Мой любимый фильм сейчас "Mission Impossible 3"

Thanks,

yes you can say like that:

когда я был младше, мой любимый фильм был "Бэмби", а сейчас мой любимый фильм "Миссия невыполнима 3".

Артём, я помню этот фильм - Кошмар на улице Взяов - про нинзя.
