The MoFo Top 100 of the 2010s Countdown

I do agree that, as opposed to the previous films, the focus on Fury Road moves around a couple of characters, most notably Furiosa and Nux. Maybe you're right and that hindered a bit the way some people perceived the character and his arc.

A lot of people mentioning One Cut of the Dead, so I apologize. I loved that little film, and I held on to it for a while, but ended up cutting it.

My list. Comments?
1. Meek's Cutoff (2010)
2. Passengers (2016)
3. Never Let Me Go (2010)
4. The Dressmaker (2015)
5. The Flowers of War (2011)

8. Ruby Sparks (2012)
9. Molly's Game (2017)
10. Another Earth (2011)
11. Brooklyn (2015)
12. Spotlight (2015).................................#63
13. Bridge of Spies (2015)

and my list with overall rankings:

I guess my movie taste is not inline with most MoFos.

But was it...the final cut?

(Final Cut is the English title for Coupez! - the French remake of One Cut of the Dead, for those who don't know haha. Jokes are much funnier when you have to explain them..right?)

Hardy was very good as Max. Firstly, he's supposed to be second fiddle to Theron, so let's not worry if she steals the show from him. Secondly, not anyone could pull off a performance of such wounded physicality without either over or under acting it. It's all about his great command of using his sheer presence and body language to create character. There is a complex performance in there.


And while I'm always going to think of it as Gibson's role, as he was fantastic in those movies, Hardy's is a deliberately different Max. And more power to him for that.

Films from my ballot that didn't make it into the top 100:

10. Hard to Be a God (2013)



11. Coherence (2013)



12. Good Time (2017)



13. Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives (2010)



16. Enemy (2013)



17. Embrace of the Serpent (2015)



18. Cemetery of Splendour (2015)



19. Leviathan (2014)



21. Meek's Cutoff (2010)

This countdown thread has been fun!
Well done, @SpelingError !

I really like Seeking a Friend for the End of the World, very underrated. Like another Steve Carell movie from the previous decade, namely Dan in Real Life, I think a terrible advertising campaign sunk its chances. They are two very funny movies with ultimately sweet messages that were difficult to market, apparently. Though if forced to choose there is a small Canadian flick from 1998 that is also a pre-Apocalyptic tale that is weirder are darker and still funny while covering some of the same ground called Last Night that I like even more, but Seeking a Friend for the End of the World is quite well made and should have reached a wider audience.

Ruby Sparks is another very clever and ultimately touching movie that was mis-marketed and unfairly ignored (see also the similar Stranger Than Fiction).

I tend to like end-of-the-world type movies, I don't know why? But they just seem intriguing, which is odd I know. The scene where a woman wears all of her jewelry to a last dinner party before the end of the world, really has stuck with me, it just seemed to say so much without even trying. One of my favorite scenes.

I liked the combination of Paul Dano and his partner Zoe Kazan who's really cute (Zoe that is). I'm a sucker for this kind of movie.

Ohh, that sounds real good to me and I actually like Will Ferrill, thanks for the recommendation, I'll have to check it out.

Always loved Dan In Real Life, although it has been a while. Seeking A Friend is pretty good.

Ok, I'll do the same, thanks

Still going through back pages but just wanted to say a big thanks to Speling for doing a stand up job as host. Well done!

And of course and thank you to our fearless leader, Yoda.

I appreciate the stats a few of you included and updated as went along. Thanks for that.

And thank you to everyone for participating. You're all winners even if your favourite 2010s movie didn't make the top 100.

Now when the heck do we start the War Countdown!

Was gonna catch my breath this weekend and then post a thread to discuss what we do next on Monday.

This list should of been 200 instead of 100 so Wonder Woman and Scream 4 made it , ehh what good would that be right it would take ages to finish I bet. Anyways this list was fun and I want to thank, @SpelingError for hosting, you been a good one and very on point with this list.

Love to see Coherence get some love. Enemy was another one that almost made my list. It is almost tied with Prisoners as my favorite Villeneuve.

No way. Not allowed.

Dr. Strangelove would be #1 or 2 by default on the war countdown since Kubrick is the poster boy for these lists
