Some honorable mentions. First a couple that would have made it had I seen them before I compiled the list.

Re: Skepsis' 100
Just thoroughly looked over your list, Skep. Looks awesome, I've written down a bunch that I'd like to see. Today I made my top 100 on my word document. Looks good and is a lot different from my top 100 from 3 years ago. Just think I need a bit more sorting and I may be good to go.

Looking forward to seeing your new list! |

Re: Skepsis' 100
Awesome, enjoy. :up:

Re: Skepsis' 100
Congrats for finishing your list, Skepsis. Eternal Sunshine is also one of my favourite films of all time. Now I have to see Super and The Savages.

Re: Skepsis' 100
Good for you for putting Eternal Sunshine in the top spot.
It's definitely one of my favorite movies, and reading your review of it reminded me that Charlie Kaufman is my favorite screenwriter. Have you watched Synecdoche, New York? I find it one of the most fascinating movies ever - one that unfolds further and more delightfully with each re-watching. It's a highly underappreciated film. Too bad, because Kaufman is having trouble coming up with funding for his second screenwriting-directorial combo. |

Re: Skepsis' 100
Obviously I find your number one to be a fantastic film. I haven't seen either of the honorable mentions, but I'll be seeing Purple Rose soon. Heavenly Creatures is on my watchlist though.

Re: Skepsis' 100
Just saw Eternal Sunshine (finally). I loved it! Definitely one of the most unique and moving romantic dramas I've seen.

Re: Skepsis' 100
Nice to see some love for KINSEY...Liam Neesom and Peter Saarsgard were amazing in that movie.
