Bit of a half and half mix so far today Rodent but mostly good. A few I'e not seen, not a fan of the 89 Batman, I'm still waiting to really 'get' The Big Lebowski, Temple of Doom is my least favourite Indy (ignoring of course that anything beyond the original trilogy actually exists! ) and Young Guns isn't great but quite fun, mostly due to Estevez. I do however love Terminator 2, Dumb and Dumber, Repo Man, Batman Returns, Tremors and of course the Lord of the Rings trilogy. And Kick Ass is really quite close to the love category as well.



I actually didn't think much of The Big Lebowski the first time I saw it. It's grown on me to the point where now I think it's a great movie. It's just the kind of movie you can put on at any time and enjoy.

I don't love Terminator 2 as much as when I saw it the weekend it came out, but I still consider it an all time top 10 action movie.

Temple of Doom is great of course, but Raiders will always be my favorite of the series.

Dumb and Dumber is one of the best comedies ever and I'm looking forward to the sequel.

I actually don't think I've seen Young Guns.

I watched Kick-Ass for the comic book tourney and it ended up high on my list. That's a real fun movie.

The Dark Knight is awesome, but I think my least favorite of the trilogy, probably due to my dislike for Aaron Eckhart.

I've only seen the first Lord of the Rings so far and it was just ok for me. For the last few years I've had a very hard time getting into fantasies. It's to bad because I love the thought of them, and this was a very impressive movie.

I've never loved Repo Man, but it's cool and I like it.

Lawless was pretty awesome mostly because of Tom Hardy.

Not interested in Tron, partly because I didn't like the first one.

I like Batman, mostly due to Nicholson.

Gremlins is awesome.

Batman Returns is on my to see list.

The Dark Knight Rises is also my favorite of the trilogy.

Alien is awesome.

I like Tremors.

Aliens is neck and neck with Die Hard for my all time favorite action movie.



+rep for Gremlins.

Tim Burton's Batman is another movie I really liked when I was a kid, but my revisit as an adult was not so good. I didn't hate it, but I didn't much like it either and I'm a fan of much of Burton's other work. That said, I still much prefer Keaton as Batman over Bale.



Batman remains my favorite movie with the caped crusader. I'd much rather dance with the devil in the pale moonlight than watch Nolan's overrated trilogy.

I love The Lord of the Rings, Alien, Aliens, T2, and Tremors. Dumb and Dumber and Kick-Ass are also very enjoyable.

I'm still waiting to really 'get' The Big Lebowski
Keep me proud of my Scottish heritage and stop waiting. There is nothing to "get." It is the worst movie in the world. I recently ditched it from my movie collection (I had blind bought it after all the raving reviews I heard), which can now breathe again since it's not around.



The Big Lebowski is fairly overrated, I seen it a second time just to make sure and sure enough my opinion didn't change.



Wow! I'm offline for 2 days and this list goes into warp.

Blade Runner
1982
I wouldn't forgive this if the rest of the list wasn't so good.

Get the hell out of here with your Aliens hate!

Awesome list, Rodent! I like 85-90% of the films on it, and I think most would be in my top 150 somewhere.



The Big Lebowski is fairly overrated, I seen it a second time just to make sure and sure enough my opinion didn't change.
Then your opinion is overrated.

I hate that you have Moon at #6, but whatever. It's your list.

I just remembered that back in 2010, before you were even a member here, Rodent -- I reviewed Moon myself. You can read it here.

Or here if you wanna give me rep.



I've read your review... read it a few days ago. I think you're pretending to have seen it.
You have after all, seen no movies.



Poltergeist and Ghostbusters are personal favorites of mine as well. I don't love Moon anywhere near as much as you do, but I do think it's one of the better science-fiction films to come in the last few years. Starship Troopers was much better than I expected it to be; beneath its dumb exterior, it's surprisingly smart. Jurassic Park is fun, but not a personal favorite.



I think you probably knew where this was going... slight change though as some of these were in places 6-10 and some were in the teens before too. New #2 as well.

The Thing

Dredd

Alien 3 Extended Cut
1992



2
Predator
1987



1
RoboCop
1987



Wow. Alien 3 higher than Alien and Aliens? I don't think it's terrible, but I do think it's a huge step down from the first two films.

I don't know what people see in Dredd.

Love The Thing, Predator and Robocop.
