Meh, whatever floats yer boat.
Yeah TLJ still doesn't get much recognition for all the great movies he's been in.

Your honourable mentions were a bit hit and miss for me (not a real fan of either Prisoners or Blazing Saddles) but so far the actual list is batting a thousand. I like Jaws and Django and love The Fugitive; such a 90s classic!

You should rewatch it. One scene is pretty silly though without that being intended, so warning.

Yeah I wasn't looking forward to seeing Django when I first watched it, but I knew I would love it like 15 or so mins in.

But yeah, C21 Tarantino is definitely hit or miss for me.. with this being a huge hit. (Wow, another hint! )

Awesome! I was so surprised when I saw it wasn't on the Top 100 90s list. I thought it would be close to a lock, atleast at the bottom half or so.

Probably my first controversial one, I wasn't annoyed at all with the ewoks like most people. It still is better than any Star Wars prequel and deserves way more credit.

Cole your the man. I love all the Star Wars films and picking a fave is like picking a fave child for me. Return has a special place in my heart because it is the only one I saw in its original theater release. It is also probably the one I have seen the most.

Hey I liked the Ewoks too. Then again I was 5 when I saw Jedi. And I like Short Round too.

You know, the Ewoks aren't that bad. I don't get all the hate.


Let's face it, they ain't Jar Jar and they at least have a function apart from handing all political power to Palpatine.


Plus, they're little furballs who manage to use rocks and sticks to defeat heavily armed and armoured troops. It proves a point that all the power the Empire has, it can be taken out by the smallest thing.

Dang, I wouldn't have thought that. Everyone seems to love V, and IV much much more than this one.

Yeah it was tough for me, but there is a clear cut favorite for me. The 2nd favorite was very very tough.

I loved them too, they were pretty funny... Unlike Jar Jar.

Yeah this was one of the first movies I have ever seen, and I would watch it over and over again.

So true, but I don't understand the TOTAL hate for Jar Jar. I didn't find him as annoying as what people had said. It's nice that they toned him down though in the story through the prequels.

I understand, tbh I don't get into many sci-fi movies at all other than Star Wars

No, sorry. I don't own any of them and I don't like any of the ones I've seen.
