The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

Yeah, I never questioned its absence for the same reason I didn't ask where Twilight or Transformers were. I do have to wonder how many people voted for Potter films (if any), then which ones and for...

I think there are a few factors. Having six eligible films is liable to split the vote a bit, but I never really thought of Harry Potter as a franchise with particularly strong individual...

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

First off, well done to Thief and co. for running this show so well.

Second, I had Fellowship at #11 and No Country at #5. I decided I'd only put one film from the trilogy on my list and it's the...

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

There Will Be Blood was my #4. That review is one I wrote forever ago and undoubtedly looks a lot rougher than what I'd write about it these days, but I stand by my initial five-star rating (back in...

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

Mulholland Drive was my #2. To me, it feels more like Lynch's definitive cinematic masterpiece than anything else as it finds the right balance between the various aspects that make his oeuvre as an...

Spirited Away was my #3. One of those films where not voting for it would've just felt wrong.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

It's good and all, but I don't have particularly strong feelings about it and thus didn't vote for it.

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

As good as it is, I decided to only vote for one LOTR film (which should be obvious by now). I would consider this a close second, at least. Now I've got to get around to watching the extended...

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

Damn, I totally forgot about A History of Violence even though I definitely rewatched it at some point in the past year and found it to be very good. That being said, I'm not exactly surprised that...

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

Zodiac was my #20. I did most of a Fincher rewatch last year but somehow missed out on Zodiac. Even so, I remain confident that it is a solid pick - I might have to rewatch it sometime soon (picked...

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

Well, we finally reached a point where both films got my vote. In the Mood for Love was my #1. Admittedly a bit of a shaky choice that could've swapped around with anything else in my top 5 on a...

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

One vote. Kill Bill Vol. 1 was my #16 - paired with Vol. 2 at #15 just to emphasise how much I think of them as one film. That being said, I obviously consider this the lesser half - though it does...

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

One vote. Basterds was my #12 - not quite the "masterpiece" that its final line implies, but still one of QT's strongest films and a necessary rebound after the mixed reception to Grindhouse. I might...

Re: The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

No votes. Oldboy is definitely an indelible film that I liked, but like so many twisty films it's one I don't really go back to. O Brother is definitely a solid Coens joint and in the top half of...
