05.01.13 | Yes they are all very well known, but there is a reason for that. |
RadicalEd
05.01.13 | Didn't think Trainspotting was thaaaaaat good.
Also Die Hard is not top 10 material for me.
Sweet list tho. Shawshank would be my Nr.1 on this. |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | Die Hard is like the best action movie, John McLane is a badass! Its mostly nostalgia, saw it when I was a kid. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
05.01.13 | Cool stuff.
I'd add: Dr Strangelove, Stroszek, Apocalypse Now, Platoon, Redacted and Natural Born Killers. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
05.01.13 | Didn't think Trainspotting was thaaaaaat good. [2] |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | I studied it in college, so I grew to love it a lot more when I delved deeper into it. Apocalypse Now is a Coppola classic, agreed. |
RadicalEd
05.01.13 | Lacks some Michael Mann.
Insider or Heat. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
05.01.13 | I studied Trainspotting in Sixth From, Lebbo, along with Shallow Grave. |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | Heat is great too, I can watch the films I've listed forever. Mulholland Dr. i've watched about 40 times and still don't get it! Probs why I love it so much. |
RadicalEd
05.01.13 | Then you should loooooooooooooooooove 2001
Except for the parts where it's so boring. |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | I could probably add a lot more in here, but these all hold a lot of sentimental value. |
DamnVanne
05.01.13 | Fern Gully, bro. It's not on here. |
oresttt
05.01.13 | Leb, Cin. Come jam! |

PunchforPunch

manosg
05.01.13 | Cool list. No love for Forrest Gump though... |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | Never really dug it hard like some... |
foxblood
05.01.13 | T2 4ever |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | Should be on everyone's top 10, best action scenes ever. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
05.01.13 | Yep. |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | Reservoir Dogs could've probably made it in here, too. |
oresttt
05.01.13 | Do you dig Shining? |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | Yeah its great, love a lot Kubrick's work, Eyes Wide Shut being my favorite. |

anarchistfish
05.01.13 | ^^ |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | That opening scene man, damn.
@Dev it sure is one of my faves, its probs level with Mulholland Drive. |
DamnVanne
05.01.13 | Have you seen Kingdom of Heaven, Leb?
|
BigPleb
05.01.13 | Thats a Ridley Scott movie, right? Can't remember now dude. |
MeatSalad
05.01.13 | It is yeah |

BigPleb
05.01.13 | not really :/ |
apert
05.01.13 | damn
1 is probably my favourite film as well |
bakkermaarten007
05.01.13 | This list plays safe. Good though, but I hate Pulp Fiction. 5 and 9 are my favs of this list. |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | They are my favorites, so they can't be safe?
You hate Pulp Fiction? Wow, not like Tarantino? |
apert
05.01.13 | how can anyone hate pulp fiction? |
Funeralopolis
05.01.13 | implying movies aren't a terrible medium |
Yotimi
05.01.13 | Don't cop out and say Die Hard is nostalgia. Movie rules. |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | Nice pun, well it is! It rules hard regardless. |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | Its 10 with MD haha. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
05.01.13 | Am I the only one surprised that The Big Lebowski isn't on this list?
'YOU'RE OUT OF YOUR FUCKING ELEMENT, DONNY!' |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | I TOLD THAT KRAUT A FUCKING 1000 TIMES I DONT ROLL ON SHABBOS. |
ButteryBiscuitBass
05.01.13 | lol, man I love that film. |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | Yeah its awesome. |
lampoast99
05.01.13 | What about Bambi? Thats a classic! |
BigPleb
05.01.13 | Oh for sure! |
JokineAugustus
05.01.13 | Shawshank is so Overrated. Groundhog Day, LOTR 3, and Scarface are better then most of these. |
anarchistfish
05.01.13 | Shawshank isn't overrated |
PayneTiger777
05.01.13 | Jaws, The Professional, and Warrior |
ViralOblivion
05.01.13 | There Will Be Blood
2001: A Space Odyssey
Dr. StrangeLove
28 Days Later
Snatch
The Wrestler

lol scarface |
Trebor.
05.02.13 | Blade Runner >

demigod!
05.02.13 | needs more Wes |
EaglesBecomeVultures
05.02.13 | great list man, 9 is my 1 |
mandan
05.02.13 | Good list, I might want to see 8, 9 and 10.
I'd probably replace Memento with Inception or any of the Batman movies with regards to Nolan. Screw
the critics, he's probably my all-time fave director. |
DominionMM1
05.02.13 | 1 is 1 but gf1 > gf2 |
EaglesBecomeVultures
05.02.13 | "Shawshank is so Overrated. Groundhog Day, LOTR 3, and Scarface are better then most of these."
hahaha best laugh of the day so far. shawshank is goat, there's no argument. |
EaglesBecomeVultures
05.02.13 | " Screw the critics, he's probably my all-time fave director."
watch some scorsese |
Trebor.
05.02.13 | "Screw the critics, he's probably my all-time fave director."
Nolan's movies do extremely well with critics |
Trebor.
05.02.13 | Shawshank is that movie where you start convincing yourself "Hey, maybe it isn't as good as I remember, maybe people do overrate it" and then you watch it for the 50th time and it still makes you feel like the first time you ever saw it, and it makes you remember why you love film so much, oh and you still cry |
mandan
05.02.13 | @Eagles: I already have. Goodfellas, Casino and The Departed are all fantastic. |
demigod!
05.02.13 | i never got the love for Memento, movie bored me tbh. |
Trebor.
05.02.13 | Taxi Driver/Raging Bull > |
EaglesBecomeVultures
05.02.13 | ^^^^ |
evilford
05.02.13 | good movies, 6 and 7 HARD |
Mongi123
05.02.13 | Memento is amazing. |
EaglesBecomeVultures
05.02.13 | replace die hard and terminator with jacobs ladder and 28 days later and this is pretty much my top 10 |
demigod!
05.02.13 | fight club and the shining |
ViralOblivion
05.02.13 | there will be blood > all |
EyesWideShut
05.02.13 | T 2 FOR EVA' |
evilford
05.02.13 | rough list of 10:
Star Wars, Ep. IV: A New Hope
Star Wars, Ep. V: The Empire Strikes Back
The Big Lebowski (heheheh really tho)
Tommy Boy
Die Hard
Reservoir Dogs
The Dark Knight (fuk the haters)
Scarface
Training Day
Alice In Wonderland (yeah the orig. cartoon. movie was brilliant and ahead of it's time)
also, no one should cop out on Die Hard. it's a classic for reasons. |
demigod!
05.02.13 | big lebowski, best movie ever |
evilford
05.02.13 | oh wait. I replace Training Day with No Country For Old Men |
ViralOblivion
05.02.13 | Ford have you seen there will be blood? |
ApplicationToHeaven
05.02.13 | shawshank redemption is not v good |
demigod!
05.02.13 | its one of the best movies ever |
ApplicationToHeaven
05.02.13 | according to imdb yeah |
lou1000
05.02.13 | One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest should be on there somewhere. |
ViralOblivion
05.02.13 | No it's an amazing movie avatar and titanic are overrated |
evilford
05.02.13 | I haven't, Viral. I'm aware that I haven't even seen some movies that would be on lots of peoples' lists. Haven't had a lot of free time for movies in recent memory.
but before people ask, yes I've seen godfathers I and II, pulp fiction, shawshank, etc |
ViralOblivion
05.02.13 | If you ever get some free time watch it it's fucking brilliant plus Daniel Day Lewis |
BallsToTheWall
05.02.13 | This list is so original. |
evilford
05.02.13 | titanic is way overrated, but I actually enjoyed Avatar quite a bit |
evilford
05.02.13 | lots of people I know love TWBB, I'll try to check it out sometime |
BallsToTheWall
05.02.13 | Makes no sense. Avatar is one of the worst movie's ever made. Titanic at least had emotion and a storyline. |
ViralOblivion
05.02.13 | I was laughing at titanic overacted beyond belief and avatar is awful it's ferngully for 3 hours |
evilford
05.02.13 | implying that Avatar didn't have emotion or a storyline?
yeah the "unobtainium" thing was dumb but that wasn't the point
but I enjoyed it personally |
BallsToTheWall
05.02.13 | It's impossible to enjoy when no effort whatsoever in the storyline. It's like the super hot model bitch with no soul, heart, character, etc. |
Trebor.
05.02.13 | lol remember when people pretended that Avatar was good for like 3 months when it first came out?
They even nominated that shit for best picture lol |
demigod!
05.02.13 | cause OMG 3D SO REVOLUTIONARY
even tho it had been done like years before if im not mistaken |
Trebor.
05.02.13 | plus How To Train Your Dragon came out a few months later and it had better 3D and was a way better movie in general |
demigod!
05.02.13 | Cameron must've bribed hollywood, only reason i can think of for it's huge acclaim. |
evilford
05.02.13 | agree to disagree then! |
evilford
05.02.13 | or maybe people just actually enjoyed it hm |
demigod!
05.02.13 | it was enjoyable in theater but come on it didnt deserve the mounds of hype that it got |
Trebor.
05.02.13 | The whole thing revolved around two gimmicks
I prefer movies with good story and characters
|
evilford
05.02.13 | agreed but it's far from the worst movie ever made
I have a feeling that people overcompensate their hate of it because of the amount of hype and $ it got. it was an enjoyable movie imo, nothing more, nothing less. |
Trebor.
05.02.13 | 6 or 7 yeah |
evilford
05.02.13 | /10? |
Trebor.
05.02.13 | out of 12 |
demigod!
05.02.13 | id give it like a six |
evilford
05.02.13 | lol |
evilford
05.02.13 | I think 6.5-7/10 is fair personally.
|
demigod!
05.02.13 | yeah |
