Cole's 40 Favorite Mainstream Movies.

It's a damn shame so many people (my sister included) are unwilling to see The Social Network just because it's "that Facebook movie." It's an incredible film and my favorite Fincher flick.
Well said noob. Great first post.

Lol that's actually why I've never seen it. I refused to see a movie with a plot like that. Recently though I've gotten less uptight about it, and probably wouldn't mind too much seeing it—but I'm also not making any effort to do so.



I have to return some videotapes.
9 of your top 40 are also in my top 100. Great stuff. Another 5 that would come really close to making it for me too!
That's great to see! Hopefully when I watch more and more we might have a few more of them
Pulp Fiction is very good and The Graduate was okay. Really don't like the others, though.
But congrats on finishing this list.
Darn. :\
Well I liked half of your top 10. That's not too bad, actually.

Congrats on finishing your list, Cole.
Thanks . I'm glad you didn't sh*t on my list as bad as I and some others thought you would

Just kidding.

Yeah that actually was what I thought. Then when I really loved all of the Fincher movies I had seen, I decided to pull it up with little expectations and came out in awe.

It's not the entire plot. Fincher beautifully mashes the creation of it with the lawsuits.

Just kidding.
I can do that if you're feeling left out.
