Nostromo's Top 50 Cocktail Party

the Cocktail Party is incomplete without #1's drink special, some may recall when Delbert Grady spills his beverage tray all over Jack and his Bourbon on the rocks, and creates an Overlook Hotel Original.
inspired by Dan M's dazzling format:

Look, I'm not judging you - after all, I'm posting here myself, but maybe, just maybe, if you spent less time here and more time watching films, maybe, and I stress, maybe your taste would be of some value. Just a thought, ya know.

Congrats on finishing the list, Nostromo. Tons of great movies on here and lots of personal favorites.

I hope you’re not too hung over after all those cocktails.

As I've not been around much recently I've got a lot of lists to catch up on, both in terms of reading and adding them to the list of members' lists.


I think you must have the record for the number of top film lists you've already churned out in your fairly short time on here! Anyway another very nice effort man. Favourites (many of which would also be on my own list) would be Enter the Dragon, First Blood, Serpico, Memento, Pirates of the Caribbean, Goldeneye, Rain Man, Predator, Terminator 2, Die Hard, Psycho, Sunset Blvd, Double Indemnity and Singin in the Rain.

Added you to the master list and at your request removed your previous lists.
