You're really losing me now. The Last of the Mohicans? No thank you. Assassination of Jesse James? Screw that. And even as much as I love animation, A Bug's Life is pretty mediocre.



You can't make a rainbow without a little rain.
Happy to see everyone liking my list, and yes at gbgoodies. Bang The Drum Slowly sadly doesn't get the attention it deserves.

#64. The Outsiders - Greasers in the 1980s works superbly, weirdly enough.

#61. Unbreakable - Impeccable acting link between Willis and Jackson, top notch chemistry. Suspenseful and dark superhero film, great pick me up from all the modern, excess heroics.

+ rep for The Outsiders and Unbreakable. Two great movies. It's too bad that some people can't see the brilliance of Unbreakable.

I shall redeem myself.



#60. Witness - Harrison Ford thinks he’s amish.

#59. Saving Private Ryan - You have the greatest starting 30 minutes of any movie.

#58. Cape Fear - DeNiro is a part preacher, part lawyer, part maniac.

#57. Conan The Barbarian - Mistaking Arnold for Hulk is a common one.

#56. Straight Time - Buzz off Earl, I don’t have no probation.

#55. Fantastic Planet - Classic case of creation against creator.

#54. Misery - A psychotic Rosie O'Donnell, scary.

#53. Drive - Say something whoever you are.

#52. After Hours - Not so Scorsese.

#51. Platoon - Sheen’s outbursts are gold.

Are you in a bad mood today?



Still lost with that set. But I see you've got an appreciation for animation. So be sure to turn in a ballot for the animation countdown once you've been here 30 days. The link for the rules and such are in my signature.

Are you in a bad mood today?
Nope, just being me.



4th set-

Love Wake in Fright, especially the kangaroo massacre.

I saw Blast of Silence recently and liked it. I gave it 3/5.

Last of the Mohicans is great.

Love The Outsiders book, really liked the movie.

Love The Beguiled! It made my 70's list and I nominated it for the movie tournament.

I liked Unbreakable a lot.

5th set, seen all of them

Witness 9/10
Private Ryan 6.5/10
Cape Fear 8/10
Conan the Barbarian 6/10
Straight Time 7.5/10
Fantastic Planet 7/10

#50. The Bounty - Anthony Hopkins and Mel Gibson on a ship together, shittt gonna go down.

#49. Mrs. Doubtfire - “DO IT LIKE A LADY!!!”

#48. Dog Day Afternoon - Who keeps a grand in the bank vault?

#47. Toy Story Trilogy - I feel for computer animated beings.

#46. Insomnia - Batman is boring, Insomnia is Nolan’s true baby.

#45. In The Company Of Men - The two greatest a-holes.

#44. The Departed - I believe it’s The Depatted.

#43. Joe - No not the Nicholas Cage butchery, the one with crazy old Peter Boyle.

#42. The Straight Story - Not so Lynch.

#41. There Will Be Blood - My blood thirst was satisfied.



Wow, very surprised and delighted to see Joe on your list. I watched that this year on recommendation from Mark and I loved it!

Along with that one, The Departed, There Will Be Blood, and The Straight Story are all top 100 for me.

Mrs. Doubtfire ain't far behind-that's another I've only seen recently.

Dog Day Afternoon is a long time favorite, but I didn't love it the last time out. It's still great, but I'm not sure how I rang it right now.

In the Company of Men is a very cool addition to your list, kind of obscure, but very good.

Insomnia was certainly good, but the one time I saw it, it didn't make a huge impression.

I just finished the Toy Story trilogy about a week ago. It's not for me, but if so many others love it, you can't be wrong.

Only one I haven't seen from that set is The Bounty. I believe you that it's good.

Loving your list dude



#40. 3:10 To Yuma - The remake that is. Charles Pussy Prince, HAHAHA, that's funny.

#39. The Postman Always Rings Twice - Jack Nicholson's most famous role ever...................sarcasm.

#38. Sorcerer - Jaws guy is in here, must be good.

#37. The Fugitive - Such things are only good once, looking at you Double Jeopardy and the sequel.

#36. Reservoir Dogs - Mr. Pink is a fagget's name.

#35. Shutter Island - Once again, not so Scorsese.

#34. Malcom X - The Chickens are coming home to roost.

#33. Scream - Greatest thing for the then (and now) tired slasher genre.

#32. Superbad - One of the few good things to come out of this new generational humor.

#31. Raging Bull - LeMotta, relax a bit, will ya? - me on the floor seconds later.

#46. Insomnia - Batman is boring, Insomnia is Nolan’s true baby.
And the original is so much better.

#42. The Straight Story - Not so Lynch.
You'd have gotten + rep from me just for this one alone.

#36. Reservoir Dogs - Mr. Pink is a fagget's name.

#33. Scream - Greatest thing for the then (and now) tired slasher genre.
Both on my own 100.



I could watch "True Lies" a 100 Times.
