RIPPA Posted March 13, 2017 Author Share Posted March 13, 2017 I forgot to mention it when it showed up but Saving Private Ryan was our first legit 7 vote movie. Two legit 9 vote movies show up in the 80s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's right up there with "man submits last minute ballot with 85 things no one hyped pretending to be surprised nobody else voted for That Thing Nobody Knows About".

Death From Above Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I love Amelie as a movie very much. Turned me around completely on my once-hatred of lawn gnomes. We're at peace now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Rippa totally faked me out with his mistake; I thought I was gonna see Kate Upton cosplaying as Kate Hudson in that poster. No fair! Harakiri is now on my must-see list. Amalie, too, though I'm 99.9% sure I'll never get around to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sublime Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Catching up through the list I was a bit surprised that I wasn't the high vote for Nosferatu which I had at #10 but was beat out by one spot, also a bit surprised it wasn't a top 100, it's nearly 100 years old and still does a better job of being creepy than most films made today. Glad to see Let The Right One In (my 51) place so high and somewhat surprised that Leon (my 57th) was out of the top 100. Happy to see Airplane make the list also I had started to think it didn't make it, which made me sad and thought I should have put it higher than 92. Glad to see others were iffy about the placement of LOTR also, I honorable mentioned Two Towers and Return of the King, Two Towers is easily my favorite of the movie series. It's the most self contained, the big battle in it is probably my vote for the best part of the entire trilogy and it wasn't overly long like Return of the King was. Jackson probably could have shifted some stuff into Two Towers to shorten RofK but that would probably just make Two Towers worse and probably hurt my enjoyment of the trilogy. (Pleasantly) Surprised Return of the Jedi wasn't a top 100 also, I expected the original trilogy to all be in the top 100, especially after Force Awakens made the list. I like Return of the Jedi (and Ewoks, yeah I said it) just fine but it's definitely the weakest of the first three Star Wars films. Good Will Hunting was my 99th movie and I almost left it off, at one point it was my 100 and another it was in Honorable Mention, I always figured that others would put it high enough to carry it. Thought Rushmore was a lock for top 100, feel like I could have placed it a but higher on my ballot, it was the lowest placed Wes Anderson movie on my list I had it at 70, I had Grand Budapest Hotel at 59 and the Royal Tennenbaums at 18. Definitely surprised Her (my 74th) cracked the top 100 when it hadn't dropped by the mid-100's I figured it hadn't made it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sublime Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Also shocked that Amelie (42nd on my ballot) wasn't higher it's such a lovely little film and it deserved to be placed higher than American Psycho which is carried by Bale's fantastic performance, IMO.

jaedmc Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 I used to think that but I rewatched it and I think Mary Harron does some really subtle amazing stuff in the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Okay, that bit of Exorcist wall candy does not need to be on my wall. I have this thing about not turning on the lights in my house and having fright induced heart attacks at three in the morning when my old man bladder betrays me and I have to get up and go use the bathroom. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
