12th Place



The Night of Counting the Years
(Al-mummia)
(Chadi Abdel Salam, 1969)
Nominated By: @jiraffejustin
Rank: 12 / Score: 76 points
(1 second place, 1 fourth, 1 fifth, 2 sixth, 3 eleventh, 2 twelfth, 2 thirteenth, 2 fourteenth)




Al-mummia was my number 6, though I think that was more a reflection of what I thought of the movies behind it than what I actually thought of it.



Checking in....I appreciated both Yellow Submarine and The Mummy. I didn't love them, but both were cool noms and worth watching.

I had them at:
9 The Fisher King
10 Yellow Submarine



11th Place



The Reflecting Skin
(Philip Ridley, 1990)
Nominated By: @pahaK
Rank: 11 / Score: 79 points
(1 first place, 1 seventh, 3 eighth, 3 ninth, 3 eleventh, 1 twelfth, 1 thirteenth, 1 fourteenth)




The Reflecting Skin was my number 9. There were things that I liked about it, but I hated pretty much all of the characters.



10th Place



The Great Mouse Detective
(Ron Clements, Burny Mattinson, David Michener, and John Musker, 1986)
Nominated By: @rauldc14
Rank: 10 / Score: 80 points
(1 fifth place, 1 sixth, 2 seventh, 2 eighth, 4 tenth, 1 eleventh, 2 twelfth, 1 fourteenth)




I should like this movie. I like the Guy Ritchie Sherlock Holmes movies quite a bit and I love Sherlock the television show. I also love rodents and animation. So a Disney animated Sherlock Holmes movie with mice should be right up my alley, but I've watched it twice and really didn't like it either time. I had it at 12.



I had a bad video quality of The Great Mouse Detective and to make things worse I couldn't understand some of the accents and no sub titles. I'm not a fan of post 1970 Disney anyway. It was my #14 vote...but that doesn't mean I hated it, it was OK, but nothing to special for me.
