The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

Hint, hint...

__________________

No votes from me on the last four. Yi Yi is another I haven't seen (yet!). Dancer in the Dark I liked, but it's been ages since I've seen it. Moon was fine, but there's something about Sam Rockwell that puts me off, I don't know why. I'm sure he's a lovely fellow. Sin City leans a little hard on the Frank Miller aesthetic that's no longer to my tastes, I'm afraid.

Pretty sure (and somewhat surprised, if true) that

SIN CITY was #56 on the MoFo Top 100 of the Millennium List as well as #3 on the MoFo Top 100 Comic Book Movies List. Moon was in almost exactly the same spot at #47 on the Millennium list as well as finishing #29 on the MoFo Top 100 Sci-Fi Films List.

Vanilla Sky and Synecdoche, New York are clearly next, from the clues.

THEN YOU MUST MUST MUSTARD MUSTY MUST WATCH GALAXY QUEST!!!1!11!1!1!





Assuming you haven't, of course. I believe that was my first experience with Rockwell and he kinda stole the show and won me over as a fan for life. If you've already seen it, then FINE!!! Treat it then as just a primer for the charming documentary on the movie, Never Surrender.







(I can't help it =\ it's like... It's like an online version of Tourette's. You really don't have to reply, but it feels like a gold star sticker when people do!!! People, or bots. I'm OK with those too. Not saying you're a bot tho, but if you were? I'd be OK with it.)

Sam Rockwell’s offputtingness (a real word, for sure) is kind of perfect for his role in GalaxyQuest, which yes, I have seen, and of course I love because I am not a monster.

Not a monster..... but totally possible a bot. I won't tell.

Pretty sure one is Synecdoche, New York. For the other, Taken?

I'd say one of them has to be 28 Days Later.

Terrible movie, mate.

28 Days Later.

did I ask

I watched Yi Yi for the Foreign Language Movies countdown. It's another movie that I considered for that list, but it didn't make my list for either that countdown or this one.

I watched Dancer in the Dark a while back for a HoF or movie tournament here. I don't remember much about the movie, but I vaguely remember that I didn't like it because it was depressing and disturbing.

I rewatched Moon for this countdown. I considered it for my list, but I just couldn't find room for it.

I watched Sin City for this countdown because it aired on one of the cable movie channels. It's definitely not my type of movie because it's too dark and violent for my taste, but for some reason I just couldn't turn it off. I wouldn't say that I liked the movie, but surprisingly, I didn't dislike it either. However I did like the way certain things were highlighted in color to stand out in the black and white movie.

OPEN FLOOR.

Yup, she's phenomenal.

Technically you didn't even ask this, which adds layer to the distaste in your response. Nice.

A few from my list have appeared.

The Wrestler was my #24. Great performance in a well-made movie.

Yi Yi was my #13. Like some other commentors, I put off watching this for ages due to the length but when I watched it I barely noticed it I was so thoroughly absorbed in the film. Glad to see it show up here after missing out on the foreign language countdown.

Brokeback Mountain was my #3. A classic tragic love story with excellent performances and beautifully photographed scenery. I liked it when I first saw it but didn't love it, it's one of those films that grew on me and I wanted to rewatch it and liked it more each time.

Dancer in the Dark was a late cut, glad to see it didn't need my help. Sin City is good, I like how they captured the graphic novel style, but I'm maybe less impressed with it now than when was younger.

@Thief just for reference can you put 110-102 somewhere on the first page? Thanks

28 days seems obvious though I've never seen it. Maybe Signs for the other one?

Will probably post reveals in a few minutes.
