My top 100 favorite films of all time.

Source Code was very good. I hate The Wizard of Oz. Haven't seen the rest.

94.

Apollo 13



This is one of the prime examples I like to use of how to make a film based around a true story. Ron Howard directs his ass off in this film, he tells the story and explains the technical's so well to the point that even though I know how the film would end, I was still biting my nails. That is the mark of a well directed film.

Why do you hate The Wizard of Oz?

So after probably 25 years, I rewatched The Wizard Of Oz.

First and foremost, Dorothy annoyed the hell out of me. I get that she's supposed to be a child (though she certainly doesn't look like one), but she's an idiot. She's a careless, irresponsible moron. Yet somehow Ms. Gulch is the "wicked" one for wanting something done about the dog that bit her and that comes into her yard and chases her cat all time because some entitled bitch can't be bothered to tie a leash on him.

Secondly, the wicked witch and her flying monkey minions were the least creepy thing about the whole movie - and that's saying a lot because I find monkeys creepy in general. Those freaky little munchkins are going to give me nightmares. And Dorothy's companions? Almost as bad.

Third, I had to snicker at the wicked witch's assertion that "poppies will make them sleep." Yes, children, this colorful family musical has just taught you a lesson about the effects of opiates. Take note.

And finally, I should have watched this movie sooner - as in before I had run low on alcohol or at least early enough in the day to get to the store for more.

I don't even know what to rate this right now, but I definitely didn't like it.
