Did it make the original 100 favorite movies list? Yes

The imagination to this movie was cool and no matter how weird this movie was, it was fun to see who survives this bloody ordeal and watching Freddy make a joke out of himself and get his ass handed by the lead chick in this movie.

I don't mind Freddy personally but I wouldn't say he's one of my favorite slashers.

"Whatever you do, don't fall asleep." - Nancy Thompson played as Heather Langenkamp





I consider A Nightmare on Elm Street Part 2 and Wes Craven's New Nightmare as an honorable mention. Part 3, 4 and Freddy's Dead were okay and part 5 sucked. imo.

#74. Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988)

Did it make the original 100 favorite movies list? Yes

This was a nice classic children's movie with some good laughs in it. The story was amazing with a cartoon meeting with reality and the friendship between Eddie (the detective) and Roger rabbit was great.

Even though the detective was a toon hating person, he still wanted to do the right thing for his job and save Roger for being framed for murder when knowing he was innocent all along as we get more into the movie.

"I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way." - Jessica Rabbit played by Kathleen Turner

Roger Rabbit was brilliant. Perfect besh of two genres that don't go well together: gritty noir and children's cartoon comedy.

#75. I Spit on Your Grave Remake (2010)

Rated R
Film Location: Shreveport, LA
Distributed by: CineTel Films
Release Date: October 8 2010 (Limited)
Did it make the original 100 favorite movies list? Yes

First off I want to say it takes some guts to make a film like this and remaking it to a better and improved film as it tones down some of the nasty stuff like you have seen in the original.

This movie is a guilty pleasure for me and the revenge scenes were brutal, her attackers got what they deserved for sure.

The movie may not be for everyone which is understandable. The film has some flaws like some other movies do but I say just use your imagination for the scenes that leave you in for questioning.

"Forgive me Father, for I have sinned." Jennifer Hills played by Sarah Butler

#76. The Other Guys (2010)
Director: Adam McKay
Writers: Adam McKay and Chris Henchy
Stars: Will Ferrell, Mark Wahlberg, Samuel L. Jackson, Eva Medes, Michael Keaton, Dwayne Johnson, Derek Jeter, Ray Stevenson

Rated PG-13
Film Locations: Hartsdale, Albany and New York City, NY

Release Date: August 6 2010
Did it make the original 100 favorite movies list? Yes

Mark Wahlberg and Will Farrell does a great job playing as silly ass clown cops that try to do the right thing but ending up messing things up.

This is why I love buddy cop movies because we got two characters as cops that are doing insane things you wouldn't see in real life.

"I'm like a peacock, you gotta let me fly!" Terry Hoitz played by Mark Wahlberg






LOL funny scene

#77. Halloween (1978)

Release Date: October 27 1978
Did it make the original 100 favorite movies list? Yes

This was one of the first horror movies that I have seen when I was young. It's got a nice chilling soundtrack and also has this masked psycho killer (Michael Myers) stalking and killing people for no apparent reason which I find a creepy thing to see.

I think John Carpenter did a great job with the film overall and the movie's theme song also.

"It's Halloween; everyone's entitled to one good scare." - Sheriff Brackett played by Charles Cyphers

Did it make the original 100 favorite movies list? No

This movie was a great follow up to the original and was enjoyable to watch. I think it was the best move by the creators of the movie to ignore the rest of the sequels and just start off fresh.

Also I like how Michael is just this cold blooded killer and not needing a brain examination on why he's this way, want to know why he really does it, because he can.

"He's waited for this night... he's waited for me... I've waited for him...' - Laurie Strode played by Jamie Lee Curtis





Halloween 2,4,6, H20, Kills and Ends as honorable mentions. Halloween 5, Resurrection and Rob Zombie's Halloween was decent. The 2nd movie and Halloween 3 sucked imo.

#79. Rush Hour (1998)

Stars: Jackie Chan, Chris Tucker, Ken Leung, Elizabeth Pena, Tzi Ma, Julia Hsu

Release Date: September 18 1998
Did it make the original 100 favorite movies list? Yes

A good and funny buddy cop movie from the 90's and enjoyable film to watch.

The chemistry between Lee and Carter was fantastic to watch as Lee (Jackie Chan) is this loyal and dedicated cop and Carter (Chris Tucker) is this wise ass and reckless LAPD detective and they team up to rescue the Chinese Consul's daughter as she was kidnapped by the bad guys.

"Please tell me you speak English. I'm Detective Carter. Do you speaka any English? DO-YOU-UNDERSTAND-THE-WORDS-THAT-ARE-COMING-OUT-OF-MY-MOUTH?" - Carter played by Chris Tucker





Rush Hour 2 and 3 were decent movies, not favorite of mines though

Did it make the original 100 favorite movies list? Yes

The story to this movie was interesting and something new to me while watching these high school movies from the 80s and it shows you it doesn't matter if the person you love is poor or rich, what should really matter the most is you love that person very much and not giving a sh*t on what anyone else says.

"You know, it's so insane that someone you've never met, never talked to can be your enemy." - Andie played by Molly Ringwald

Did it make the original 100 favorite movies list? Yes

You got to love those 80's high school movies out there like this one and Molly Ringwald and Anthony Michael Hall did a good job at their roles in this movie.

For a movie that is PG and more on the romance side, it was an interesting one and showing that it can have some fun while not afraid to offend it's audience and yes her parents forgot her f*cking birthday, what else is new.

"I can't believe this, they f*cking forgot my birthday." - Samantha played by Molly Ringwald

#82. Jurassic Park (1993)

Did it make the original 100 favorite movies list? Yes

A movie that shows us an exciting Sci-fi adventure into the dinosaur world, seeing all kinds of dinosaurs which was cool to see. The CGI special effects from the dinosaurs were great and good characters in the movie as well.

"Welcome to Jurassic Park." – John Hammond played by Richard Attenborough






One of the best theme songs in cinema, imo.

Did it make the original 100 favorite movies list? Yes

A movie filled with laughter and not giving a crap if it offends it's viewers, which I like when movies do this because it makes the movie more fun to watch.

The plot is quite silly and having this creepy stalker kid wanting the talking teddy bear, it makes you want to say "go get your own f'n teddy bear, kid."

"No matter how big a splash you make in this world whether you're Corey Feldman, Frankie Muniz, Justin Bieber or a talking teddy bear, eventually, nobody gives a shit." The Narrator played by Patrick Stewart

A very pleasant thriller movie about a young teenage girl that dates this guy that she thought was this handsome and charming guy but has this dark side of him that makes him out to be this psychotic boyfriend. Mark Wahlberg does a good job at playing the part in the film.

"It could of all been different, Mr. Walker. You should have allowed nature to take its course. In the end, it will anyway. SO LET ME IN THE F*CKIN' HOUSE!" – David McCall played by Mark Wahlberg

Did it make the original 100 favorite movies list? No

A good high school movie that sends out a great message on what happens when trying to get yourself into the cool crowd to earn some reputation and wanting to fit in with them but of course things don't always work out that way.

It's always important to be yourself and never turn on the people that share a good friendship with you. The storyline was enjoyable and a fun movie to watch.

This fun movie brings us on a great adventure about a high school slacker playing hooky from school. Also bringing his two friends along to join in on the fun and outsmarting the principal at school while he tries to catch Ferris in the act of playing hokey.

Imo, I think Matthew Broderick did a great job with his role as Ferris.

I love how there's six different unique superheroes all in one movie, Iron Man, Captain America, The Hulk, Black Widow, Hawkeye and Thor. They form an alliance that was made by Nick Fury to stop Thor's evil brother Loki from committing such an evil plan which trying to destroy earth.

My favorite character out of the bunch is Black Widow because she's a bad ass without superpowers.

"A hero? Like you? You're a laboratory experiment, Rogers. Everything special about you came out of a bottle." Tony Stark played by Robert Downey Jr.





The Avengers 2 as an honorable mention, Xfinity War and Endgame were okay.

I agree with your Spider-Man picks. Also, I love Avengers.

What happened to #92?
