The Movie Forums Top 100 of All-Time Refresh: Countdown

Hey Yoda, can I still send my list in? We would just have to redo this entire thread.

Imagining Yoda spelling this out is an emotionally challenging thing to do.

Irreversible (2002)
Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005)
Dead Poets Society (1989)
Clay Pigeons (1998)
Donnie Brasco (1997)
Poison for the Fairies (1984)
Lupin the Third: The Castle of Cagliostro (1979)
Coraline (2009)
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017)
The Florida Project (2017)
Planes, Trains and Automobiles (1987)
Army of Darkness (1992)
Dangerous Liaisons (1988)
Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey (1991)
Dallas Buyers Club (2013)

I've seen all of these. I don't like Dead Poets Society, Donnie Brasco, Poison for the Fairies, Lupin, or Coraline. I don't remember Plains, trains, Dangerous Liaisons, or Bogus Journey well enough to still have an opinion. The rest are good.

Ah, I was confused because saying "is there more than 2?" makes it sound like we've already announced two. I suppose you're counting the "real" list as the other one?

If so, yeah, no other lists. The One Pointers are the only ones based on a specific total, and they're "unofficial," in the sense that it's just a little thing most Curators do for fun. After this, it's just the Top 100, which has no specific point total associated with it. It's just whichever films scored the highest.

I copied and pasted it to avoid the pain.

What’s the record for most pages of user engagement before the thread subject is revealed? I feel like this one has gotta be setting a record for sure.

All is going according to plan:

I agree. I had it at #61 on my failed 100 list, but I wouldn't have minded to put it a bit higher.

I was intrigued by A Ghost Story when I saw the trailer, but never got around to seeing it. Its inclusion here has probably convinced me to give it a try, though.

You are all now honor-bound to watch The Impostors in return. Here, I'll make it easy.

I've seen 17 of those One-Pointers. Kudos to whoever put The 10th Victim in there. Good film.

If this wasn't Takoma, I'll eat my hat.

I'm sure The 10th Victim is a certain relative of mine's One Pointer. We still want to remake it.

This would've worked slightly better if you were @TheUsualSuspect but given that the character in question is in fact a thief, it works pretty darn well.

I love Dead Poets Society. I do think it suffers from a bit of sappiness and melodrama, but I still think the dynamics between Williams and the students are on-point, and the lead kids (Ethan Hawke!) are pretty good actors.

I saw this film back in the 90s. Remember liking it, but haven't seen it since. I barely remember it at all.

I thought we were just listing off movies that barely made the cut or something, idk I got got confused, it's fine atleast were done it now and now waiting for the list to start

oops reposted by mistake sorry, the reply button got stuck lol

Yeah, no worries.

Short version is:

The Top 100: the films with the most overall points.

One Pointers: films that got exactly one point.

There's a whole lot of films between these two groups, that got more than one point but not enough to crack the Top 100.

Florida Project isn't mine but it's in my top 100.

I do like Cagliostro too

These are the One-Pointers I've seen with my corresponding thumbs...

Some reservations on Clay Pigeons, Donnie Brasco, and Army of Darkness, which I haven't seen since the 90s.
