You stay out of this!

In the 10 Ring: Gunslinger45's reviews

If Annie Hall makes the top 20, I will chastise whoever voted for it very heavily. I hate Woody Allen films.

I'm hoping Camp is right. Its a shame I never got to Amarcord. I'm not sure that will make it. I'm shocked that 3 Women may be on the ropes.

These 29 films will make it:

The Godfather
The Godfather 2
Jaws
Chinatown
Star Wars
A Clockwork Orange
Dog Day Afternoon
Young Frankenstein
Halloween
One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest
Taxi Driver
Apocalypse Now
The Long Goodbye
The Conversation
Rocky
Annie Hall
Harold and Maude
The Exorcist
Aguirre, the Wrath of God
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Days of Heaven
Eraserhead
Barry Lyndon
Alien
McCabe and Mrs. Miller
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Stalker
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Amarcord

1 of these also will:

Patton
High Plains Drifter
El Topo
3 Women

Thought The French Connection was reasonable, but nothing more. Still not yet seen Network.

Network is OK, but I think its overrated. I do like French Connection, but not enough to make my list.

These are the movies I think have the best shot to show up. I know Altman is big on this site, but I do not see three more of his movies showing up. I doubt El Topo will show up.

The Godfather
The Godfather 2
Jaws
Chinatown
Star Wars
A Clockwork Orange
Dog Day Afternoon
Young Frankenstein
Amarcord
Halloween
One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest
Taxi Driver
Apocalypse Now
The Long Goodbye
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
The Conversation
Rocky
Patton
Annie Hall
Harold and Maude
The Exorcist
Aguirre, the Wrath of God
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
High Plains Drifter
Eraserhead
Barry Lyndon
Alien
McCabe and Mrs. Miller
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Stalker

You forgot The China Syndrome.

No I didn't.

Superman will still make it.

I'll be happy if these three movies make the list:

Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Jaws
Star Wars

Also, I'm kind of surprised (and disappointed) that Superman the Movie is not on that list.

My guess would be these. Plus one. Possibly Stalker.

The Godfather
Taxi Driver
Star Wars
Jaws
Chinatown
The Godfather Part II
Apocalypse Now
Alien
A Clockwork Orange
One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
Rocky
Superman
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Annie Hall
Eraserhead
Dog Day Afternoon
Days of Heaven
Barry Lyndon
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The Exorcist
Amarcord
McCabe and Mrs Miller
Harold and Maude
The Conversation
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
Halloween
Aguirre the Wrath of God
The Long Goodbye
High Plains Drifter

But it's highly probable that something I haven't considered could knock some of these off the list.

I didn't think Amarcord was that popular.

I hope it's that popular. It's one of my favorite movies regardless of decade.

If I could turn back time, I'd put Amarcord on my list. There's one movie I put on my list that I shouldn't have even bothered with, so I could imagine myself putting Amarcord there instead. I liked it. I own it. Bought it during a B&N sale.

Amarcord will definitely make it.

I am still worried about Texas Chainsaw Massacre. THRILLED that if it actually makes it, it's in the Top 30 at least. Never expected that. But I'm worried about it being on the list at all. I mean, I just don't know who actually had it on their list, if it was high enough, etc. You say horror fans would have had it, but who are they? A lot of people here don't like that movie... did it really get more than 250 points?

I can't see TCM not making it. I'm surprised (and happy) it's going to be as high as it will be, because I would have thought it'd have shown up already, but I look at some of the first movies on the countdown and can't imagine them getting more votes than TCM.

I'm willing to bet a lot on it making it. I don't see how it doesn't. Horror is probably the most popular genre on the forum right now.

Get ready to chastise me, Slobby
