The MoFo Top 100 of the 2010s Countdown

See I was right the first time:

I disagree with the assessment of Korean cinema in general. Although movies like Oldboy and Parasite aren't afraid to go violent and contain some crazy plot points, they still don't remind me of Tarantino's style at any point.

Yeah, Tarantino's style is a lot more than violence and crazy plot points. MKS can probably write more about his style than I could, but whenever you're watching a Tarantino film, you can clearly tell - by way of the catchy/try-hard dialogue - director cameos - usage of fetishes - that his films are from someone who's super indulgent (which I don't necessarily mean in a bad way) and is clearly giving themselves a pat on the back after each scene of dialogue. I haven't seen anything like that for the South Korean films I've watched, not for Burning, not for Parasite, not for Oldboy, nor for any other Korean film I've seen to date.

Watch Memories of Murder, CR.

Not my bag and my wife would hate that movie.

I've been away for 5 or 6 days (and about 30 pages) so, naturally, bar one, I've not seen any of the films revealed. I've actually seen Guardians Of The Galaxy. Back in the days of watchalongs on here we watcched this. It was OK but not anything I've seen since or have any interest in seeing again. Not turn it off bad were it on though.

Into the top 50 now and I can really see just why I've not bothered watching much for the last 15 years or so.

I mostly agree with this, though there are times where the boldened part does work for me. But mainly in the 90's and mainly when it's John Woo.

Me neither. But Game Of Death is as early as I can think off the top of my head, which is 35+ years before any of these.

Those of you who talk of being the Mofo outsider and having differing tastes to the crowd, come sit next to the guy who put the first wheel on that bandwagon.

Finally. Welcome to the club.

Wow. How bad is the remake?

I've still got about 10 pages to go but I've got to go, so I'll post this and come and slag off the rest later.

My mom and I saw this in a packed theater when it first came out and it's one of my most treasured movie-going memories.

I've had Burning on my watchlist for a while. I would've made sure to watch it before sending my ballot but I had no clue it was this popular.

I was really into Sicario in the early going but then I got bored of it. Maybe one I could give another shot.

Hints:

34.



33.

33. Inception

34. Social Network

33. Annihilation

34: Her

I don't have any guesses. Just wanted to say that this video is very familiar to me because I use it as part of teaching narrative writing to my students. It's a small world!

33. The Lighthouse
(Annihilation does work better though, doesn't it?)

34. Searching
33. The Impossible

Certainly Speling wouldn't be so obvious to use a Facebook image for a Social Network hint... or is that reverse psychology? or is he thinking we'll think it's reverse psychology so it's NOT The Social Network? Hmm...
