The MoFo Top 100 of the 2000s Countdown

Yes, I think they are solid. And his work is better when he’s constrained by budget. Or when it’s a commercial. I mean, he gets ticket sales churning so I’ll give him that.

Those two movies got him that deal with Disney and he got bankrolled.

I've only seen a few of Wes Anderson's movies, but they've been a bit too quirky for me. I watched The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou for this countdown, mainly because of Bill Murray. Like the other Wes Anderson movies, it's too quirky for my taste, so it didn't make my list, but it's a fun movie that was worth watching.

I watched Werckmeister Harmonies for the Foreign Language Movies countdown. I found it to be too confusing, and just not my type of movie.

The first is Mother (the Korean one), but not sure of the second.

Loved both Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World and The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, but neither made my list. Still, two very worthy entries. Haven't seen the others. Nice graphics, @Thief!

I remember liking Life Aquatic a lot when I first saw it but its been years and I've soured on Anderson's stuff since then so who knows if it holds up. Can't believe I still haven't seen anything by Bela Tarr.

65 points for #100 is a very high step. Initially, I thought it will be about 30-35 pts for that level.
I guess, it means that we have considerable overlap of the lists.

Since we've had a couple of ties, I found this well-written explanation on our previous Foreign Film countdown, courtesy of @Thursday Next

(sorry, cleared some out)

Could the 2nd be Y Tu Mama?

If Master and Commander is #100, I can't wait to see what the other 99 fantastic films are-- obviously the majority of which I've missed...

There are some films that if they don't appear I will drag everyone's bodies on the ground and curbstomp their heads to piles of mush.




But of course it's only a game

American History X is 1998, dude.

Why yes, Corky Romano was on my list. It was number 1, in fact.
<begins barricading house immediately>

Saw's actually got an OK chance of making this list, doesn't it?

I find Life Aquatic to an underrated Wes flick. I really loved it when I saw it. I’ve only seen it once though, so perhaps I will have another view on it with a rewatch. But I really enjoyed it the first time around…

Still haven’t seen Werckmeister Harmonies but it’s on the watchlist.

Idk why buy i thought of the fountain fir the first hint,
For the second i picturized dance alone scene in almostvfamous but y tu mama is fitting as well, i guess
