So that might be it for the Bill & Ted movies but, at the very least, Bogus made it STATION! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaedmc Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 At first I was like, "What the fuck 500 Days of Summer?" Then I was like, "Well at least Paco placed 500 Days of Summer and High Fidelity in the right order." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 I love (500) Days of Summer. I'm surprised it made this list. There's two big Cusack movies (to me at least) from around that period. I almost voted for High Fidelity and figured it wouldn't make this list, but I did vote for the other one, which I haven't seen in quite some time.

Matt D Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 It had been so long since I saw my name on a movie that was actually selected for the list that I thought maybe I only made a list of four movies or something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted February 23, 2017 Author Share Posted February 23, 2017 Caught another error on my part but this time - Thank God - I caught it before the movie was posted. Had it listed twice - so it moves up higher I will tell y'all when it eventually shows up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It needs to be seen, though, if for no other reason than to seeing Andy Griffith, playing against type, as a menacing figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Conan would have probably been my #4 or #5. My list would've been J.T.'s Favorites instead of his Greatest clearly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonidas Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Was curious about the directors in my list. Possible spoilers because it would be easy to work out some of the films. Spoiler Spielberg has the most with 9~! Which seems like a high number to me, but they're all valid in my list, wouldn't really change them. Tarantino with 5.25 (Four Rooms counting as quarter.) I grew up with his work. Robert Zemeckis with 4. Blatantly obvious what some of these will be. J.J Abrams with 3. Which surprised me as he's relatively new to being well known. The man does good Sci-Fi. If you asked me I would say Kubrick is my favourite director of all time, and I'm pretty fascinated with how he worked. However only two of his films made my 125, which I think would change once I re-watch his other films another 10 times. They're so damn in depth, it takes decades for them to actually stick with you. Also I was amazed to see only 4.25 (Four Rooms again for the quarter) female directors in my list in total. And 2 of them used to be men! Bless the Wachowski sisters.

RIPPA Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 I am not sure if I will get an updates done today as I have to finish the March Madness bracketing and the fucking pick'em site will be the death of me. Sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only have six directors showing up multiple times, all twice each (and one of those directors had his two appearances in my honorable mentions). I have 8 female directors on my list. 4 of those are in my top 20, and 2 of those are in my top 10 (one has already appeared - Fish Tank by Andrea Arnold).
