Sam has a pretty good list going. Although we all have our own opinions. I agree with Arioch that Tombstone, Bram Stokers Dracula, Requiem for a Dream, Full Metal Jacket and a lot more shouldve been included. But i do think that Dawn of the Dead, Pulp Fiction, Evil Dead, and Scarface SHOULD stay on the list. Although Goodfellas OWNS THE FUCK outta Scarface, Scarface is still a good movie.....
I haven't seen Fargo, Bram Stokers Dracula, Requiem for a Dream or Full Metal Jacket.

And, as much as I love Scorsese (best director ever, can't make a bad movie, etc.), I was dissapointed with Casino. Not as dissapointed as I was with Rashomon, but dissapointed nonetheless

Requeim for a Dream: WATCH IT NOW FUCKER. Its exactly your type of movie.

Sam The Egg 09-14-2004 01:49 PM

Arioch's suggestions:

"Batman "
Aside from Jack Nicholson, it didn't really have much going for it

"Beetlejuice"
Weird, funny, unique, but just not good enough

"FUCKING TRUE ROMANCE"
Tarantino directing would've done wonders for it

"THE ROCK"
Haven't seen it

"The Evangeleon Movie"
Haven't seen it

"REQUEIM FOR A DREAM"
Haven't seen it

"The Shining"
was in heavy consideration

"Full Metal Jacket"
Haven't seen it

"Edward Sissorhands"
Too many of the performances annoyed me

"TITUS"
Haven't seen it

"Aliens"
It's rare that I'll have both the original and a sequel on the list. IIRC, I've only got one movie/sequel pairing on the list, and that's Raiders of the Lost Ark and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. And Aliens is no Last Crusade.

"The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)"
One word: Franklin

"TOMBSTONE"
Kilmer's best performance, one of the few Kurt Russel movies I like, but there's just something that kept it off the list

"Legend"
Haven't seen enough of it

"NATURAL BORN KILLERS"
Uh, no

"The nightmare before xmas"
The Wall aside, a musical will never make the list

"The last of the mohicans"
Haven't seen it

"Braveheart"
I need to watch it again

"Immortal Beloved"
Never heard of it

"Amadues"
If I'd seen it for the first time a little while before making the list, it might have made it. But I saw it a bunch when I was a kid and, being a kid, never liked it. So now I've got the memories of disliking it so etched into my head that I can't bring myself to sit and watch it

"Bram Stokers Dracula"
Haven't seen it...bitch!

"Highway"
The Jake Gyllenhaal/Jared Leto movie? Very good, but just not good enough

"Freeway"
It's twisted, perverted, tasteless, and has Kiefer Sutherland in it, so it was in consideration

"FUCKING EQUILIBRIUM"
I didn't forget it. I can't ingore the Switched Gun plot hole

"AMERICAN PSYCHO"
I hate Hewey Lewis and the News

"Velvet Goldmine"
:confused:

"GATTICA"
Never seen it

"THE TRANSFORMERS MOVIE"
Nice cast, inappropriate placement of Weird Al music, Galvatron, but the humans annoyed the shit out of me, and the Matrix screamed Deus Ex Machina

As for Ruroni Kenshin, he's only Trigun-ish in the show, and this is the movie (Samurai X: Trust and Betrayal director's cut)

But always keep in mind; I have fucking Versus on my list, what do I know?

Mr. Nash 09-14-2004 03:40 PM

Tombstone, IMO is a GREAT movie. One of my favorites. Top 10 for me. I loved Doc Holliday. "I'm your huckleberry". I wish I had a few pictures of him, if I did I would make my avatar Doc. Or maybe Johny Ringo...

Bettlejuice is also one of my favorites.

WHATS WRONG WITH U KIDDD??????????

Hate_Breeder 09-14-2004 03:51 PM

I hate Gattica....id didnt go anywhere when i was watching it

orangestar 09-14-2004 04:03 PM

I LOVED Gattaca. Any movie about what the future will be like generally rocks my world.

Sam The Egg 09-14-2004 04:26 PM

I'd just like to say how amused I am that an entire thread is devoted to my top 100, especially since it was started by someone else, and people are responding like they actually take it somewhat seriously

meetthecreeper 09-14-2004 06:26 PM

Sam, How is it that you have never seen Full Metal Jacket??? This and Platoon would be tied up on my list. Ermey gives the performance of a lifetime although I dont think that it was really acting being that he is a Marine Corp. drill sarg.

Also how come I dont see Jaws on the list?? Quints recount of the USS Indianapolis is a haunting story and I have to be honest, I have always felt that Jaws was the scariest movie of all time.

Lot of others on the list I agree with, although not in the order, and some I dont.

Interesting list though was glad to see Deliverance, love that fucking movie.

Have you seen HERO? Friend got an import copy and it is one of the best foreign films I have ever seen.

Sam The Egg 09-14-2004 06:42 PM

I had a copy of FMJ back in the day (VHS), but part of it was cut off at the beginning so I always meant to get a copy, but the fact that I had it already always kept me from buying/renting it. Now that I've got Netflix, I'll see it.

I've seen Jaws, I love the movie, and it may make the list yet. I gave it, IIRC, ****3/4, but I might see it sometime again and decide it's good enough to get another 1/4*, which would all but guarantee it makes the list (there are one or two ***** movies not on the top 100, so it's not 100%)


I haven't seen Hero, but it's one of the three movies that will be out soon at the theater near me (One of three theaters, actually, but this one has better chairs, so it's the one we go to;) ), so I'll see it eventually

HA! so did Donnie Darko.....LITERALLY!!!

Haha, anyway....all good responses.....and you gotta see some of these movies....

Ya Gattaca owns your ass HB....

Sam The Egg 09-14-2004 07:38 PM

well anyways, the list is out of date. I haven't updated it since the beginning of the summer, so there's at least one movie added (not saying what it is) which means Versus will no longer be on the list :p

Arioch 09-14-2004 07:41 PM

I want to see VERSUS SO BAD!!!!! I might just go blind buy it....i cant get a download...

Sam The Egg 09-15-2004 01:55 PM

I notice that nobody's mentioned A Face in the Crowd. Has anybody here seen it?
