06.22.11 | great list
1 is so good |
foreverendeared
06.22.11 | All of these are awesome movies. Seven Samurai is such a long movie, but so fucking worth it. |
mariothehedgehog
06.22.11 | yeah probs |
Electric City
06.22.11 | the 1988 alice can fuck itself |
foreverendeared
06.22.11 | Out of all these movie lists and not one person even mentions Rumble Fish. |
Electric City
06.22.11 | the surreal czech version? i couldnt stand it. and i like alice and surrealism |
TheJackal
06.22.11 | Since I was born post 1990, unsurprisingly I'm unfamiliar with most of these...
|
foreverendeared
06.22.11 | Yeah the czech Alice is an amazing film, loved the mix of stop-motion animation with a live action Alice. Malice in Wonderland was an awesome translation of the book as well. |
foreverendeared
06.22.11 | Rumble Fish is everything good about the cinema. |
foreverendeared
06.22.11 | Tom Waits is hilarious in it too. |
Crymsonblaze
06.22.11 | 10 is one of the best movies ever |
TheJackal
06.22.11 | Just because they're old movies doesn't make them any better
I'm still working through movies from the 90s, might be a while before I get to the 1950s. I already watch too many films, I should probably do something more constructive. |
foreverendeared
06.22.11 | "It's an overloaded piece of crap that doesn't know where to stop."
Sounds like you have no idea what you're talking about. It wasn't "loaded" with anything, and it knew exactly where to stop, where it had to stop? Are you sure you saw this one? |
Curse.
06.22.11 | Big Trouble In Little China nigga |
foreverendeared
06.22.11 | Overdone? Again what? It was subtle and understated, not overdone. Even if the characters hadn't been fully developed (which they were), the movie still has, like you said, substance and style to boot. Hardly a "giant turd of a movie" at all. |
foreverendeared
06.22.11 | Rourke as The Motorcycle Boy is one of the most compelling roles I've ever seen on film. NO ONE could have done better. |
WeepingBanana
06.22.11 | 90's movies were the best dude wtf |
TheJackal
06.22.11 | Cool, glad we agree.
So if I was to watch one of these films, which one should I watch?? And is the original scarface better? |
Curse.
06.22.11 | You know what Jack Burton says at a time like this?
Ah what the hell |
foreverendeared
06.22.11 | "Substance and style don't make a good movie."
I know, that's why Rumble Fish also had tremendous acting, and fully developed main characters.
"Fleshing out your characters and making sure your dialogue is on point does."
Good thing the movie does both. I really have a hard time believing you actually saw this one.
"If substance and style made a good movie, Avatar would've been #1 in everyone's lists."
Avatar did NOT have substance at all. It had style, that's it. |
foreverendeared
06.22.11 | "We could also say Dennis Hopper, but I'm only allowed one actor from Rebel Without a Cause."
Dennis Hopper was in Rumble Fish. |
AggravatedYeti
06.22.11 | Pit I love everything about this list. |
Curse.
06.22.11 | You should put the original The Vanishing on this list
nvm you have it |
TheSadLittleDinosaur
06.22.11 | I feel like your stance on cinema ("I believe that the essence of cinema was lost after about 1985, and now were just going through re-hashed ideas and ideas that should have never been put to film. The originality in film is gone.") is way too cynical. You need to be more open to things. |
Trebor.
06.22.11 | Pretty good list.
Rumble Fish sucks ass. |
foreverendeared
06.22.11 | I mean Rourke hardly spoke at all through the whole film. That's true, but if you actually watched his facial expressions and body language, his acting was both subtle and powerful.
Agree to disagree then, that's fine. |
foreverendeared
06.22.11 | "Rumble Fish sucks ass."
I will bite your nipples off and eat them with my toast. |
Curse.
06.22.11 | Hey Pit if there was one movie I would add to the list it would be Straw Dogs. That movie is a fucking classic and brutal to watch from a psychological standpoint |
foreverendeared
06.22.11 | I love that you have Blood Simple. on here. That and Barton Fink are my 2 fav Coen Bros movies. |
WeepingBanana
06.22.11 | also this should have One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. the book was wayyyyy better but the movie is still amazing |
Blackbelt54
06.22.11 | 1 is amazing, one of my favorite movies ever |
Curse.
06.22.11 | I am speaking of the Peckinpah version. I am still horrified that they have remade it |
fsharptrit0ne
06.22.11 | NOW THIS IS A LIST |

06.22.11 | Just watched The Doom Generation recently. That movie is fucking awesome. |

06.22.11 | predator beats all of these |
omnipanzer
06.22.11 | Tapeheads.... really? |
omnipanzer
06.22.11 | Pit this is hands down the worst list you've ever made... but I dig the randomness of it all. |
Jruined
06.22.11 | You have some Gilliam, Bergman, Kurosawa, Lynch, Carpenter in his prime, and a few other good directors on here.
This makes me wish there was a community movie site that was as critical on film as Sputnik generally is on music. At least one that I could stumble on the way I did Sputnik. |
robertsona
06.22.11 | blue velvet is awesome for thirty minutes and merely good for the rest imo |
omnipanzer
06.22.11 | Sorry, I should probably point out that this is the best movie list ever compiled on Sputnik... ever. |
BallsToTheWall
06.22.11 | Go onto the Criterion Collection page, browse through the titles, pick the ones that interest you and watch them by any means. I have not been dissapointed by the one's i've seen thus far. |
omnipanzer
06.22.11 | Fuck I need to help you assholes out. |
BallsToTheWall
06.22.11 | Cool Hand Luke needs to be on more lists tbh. |
Asiatic667
06.22.11 | Alice, Repo man, Time Bandits ftw |
omnipanzer
06.22.11 | "How is this the worst list I've ever made, omni?"
Your shit is usually on point but this just has too much obscure shit imo. I think your lists
generally are really just "here you need to listen/watch this" and it is accurate but this has a lot
of stuff that no one needs to ever watch ever imo. |
omnipanzer
06.22.11 | Tapeheads is important to film buffs but this is a site of music buffs... know what I;m saying bro? |
omnipanzer
06.22.11 | I'm a film buff, I totally get it but it's a little heavy handed for a bunch of music geeks. ;^P |
omnipanzer
06.22.11 | The original Get Carter is a great fucking movie... particularly if you ever saw the atrocity that is the Sylvester Stallone version but... it's not necessary for the average person to watch it. See what I mean. I want them all to compare but they just won't give a shit... not really. |
omnipanzer
06.22.11 | all these cunts need to watch Bronson... but it won't happen. |
omnipanzer
06.22.11 | I'm a 70's baby and I've seen some tremendous 60's movies but it's because I've searched them out but I don't come here for that right? |

06.22.11 | No... lol |
omnipanzer
06.22.11 | I'm just surprised you would attempt something so wonderful and not expect to get a little shit... really great list bro... I mean really great to the point some won't appreciate. ;^P |
omnipanzer
06.22.11 | I really need to do a movie list soon myself. |
omnipanzer
06.22.11 | Have you watched Bronson? |
BallsToTheWall
06.22.11 | Bronson is damn good. Tom Hardy as Bronson rivals Ledger as the joker. |

omnipanzer
06.22.11 | "How would you feel, waking up in the morning without a window? My window is a steel grid, I 'ave to put my lips against that steel grid and suck in air, that's my morning... 'cause I got no air in my cell. I have to eat, sleep and crap in that room twenty-three hours of a twenty-four hour day. You tell me, what human being deserves that? Apart from the stinking paedophile or a child killer. I don't deserve that, I done nothing on this planet to deserve that. My bed is four inches off the floor, it's a concrete bed, my toilet hasn't even got a seat on it or a lid, and I 'ave to live like this month after month after month, and the way it's looking it's year after year after year. Now is that's right then so be, but let somebody else 'ave a fucking go at it, 'cause I've had twenty-six years of this bollocks and it's time to come out, and I want the jury at my trail to come and see how I'm living. But I'm not living, I'm existing. " |
