PRESENTING: Movie Forums' Top 100 Movies, Starring You!
 
The lists are done, the pictures and quotes are gathered.

Now you all sit in anticipation as I reveal your personal favorites. :cool:

Sorry this took so long :(

Anyone have the old list for reference?

I'll go ahead and kick things off by giving you number 100 on YOUR MoFo 100.

28 lists. :yup:

I'll post 99-91 sometime today.

EDIT- And FYI, every movie that made the list had a minimum of 3 votes for it.

The way it works is you submit a list of 10-20 and whatever is ranked 1 on your list gets 20 points. 2 gets 19. 3 gets 18 and so on and so on.

Accumulate all the points and you get this list.

I remember being 16, too.

But yeah, even though I actually like Clerks II (or at least don't hate it like most people here seem to), there is no way it should beat out Blue Velvet, Taxi Driver and Midnight Cowboy.

Well, the way I look at this, is that this is Mofo's favorite 100 movies. It's not Mofo's 100 Technically Greatest movies. It's all about the movies you most enjoy watching. And if I'm being completely honest, Taxi Driver, even though it is a much better movie, is not as enjoyable a viewing experience as Clerks II, so in terms of favorites, I'd have it ranked above Taxi Driver as well.

Clerks II wouldn't be in my top 20 favorites mind you, but it was for a few of the posters.

Just chizzle, my bizzles. This list is all in fun. Liven it up and tell us which of these films you've seen and what you think of them. :yup:

I'm going to try and post 95-81 all in one big post here in the next hour or so.

Re: PRESENTING: Movie Forums' Top 100 Movies, Starring You!
 
Correction, this is 28 Mofo member's favourite movies. As for me, Clerks 2 (not going to make it sound better with those roman numerals now) is about as enjoyable as being kicked in the balls and told to laugh. But please BobbyB, continue with the list, just ignore us.

I'm unsure about the list itself so far (;)), but the format is very nice. Can't wait to see more.
