I had a feeling that Bride of Frankenstein would place ahead of the first film, yet I still rate both films equally, with the one I chose having no chance of placing now. Yet I put it ahead of these first two films and at the same time think they're all 5-star movies, if that makes any sense. Along with the themes addressed in the Frankenstein novel and films above, I liked the warped sense of humor of "Bride," particularly where Doctor Pretorius (Ernest Thesiger) is concerned. And "Bride" has one of the most moving scenes I've seen in any movie, where the Monster meets the Blind Hermit. And as touching as it is, I can't watch it without thinking of its parody in Young Frankenstein.
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is just one of Disney's best films, ever. It has humor, drama, and even darkness in it (one instance is the vultures near the end). I had it at #11 on my list.
#3 The Adventures of Robin Hood (33)
#6 Gunga Din (61)
#7 The Thin Man (25)
#8 Destry Rides Again (72)
#10 A Night at the Opera (27)
#11 Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (17)
#12 My Man Godfrey (31)
#13 Captains Courageous (64)
#14 Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (47)
#16 You Can't Take it With You (39)
#19 Stagecoach (23)
#21 Angels With Dirty Faces (37)
#22 Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (28)
#23 The Roaring Twenties (21)
