Poolio, serious props for All Quiet and O Brother. I felt bad not having at least one Coen's on my list.

 

Thanks KR. Yeah, me being from a traditional Irish family, I had BETTER have the Quiet Man in the top ten. Actually, it is one of my all times faves.

And unlike most of you "gonads," I have some class. LOL j/k

Dead, I am shocked at you no Army of Darkness on the list!!?? what's up with that!!??


EDIT:

KUDOS LIST: O Brother
The Searchers
Silverado
13th Warrior
French Kiss
Year of the Commet

 

I have serious trouble making those kinds of lists...I could do a top 100 and still have runner ups.

I tried to pick the movies I watch most and then throw in a few that I love but are just not everyday watchable like All quiet...brillant movie (the Dvd put out a few years ago is great to watch all remastered and added scenes)but it's tough to watch all the time, kinda like Das Boot or Hotel Rowanda.

A few more runners up for fun:

Black Hawk Down

Freaked

Terminator 1-3

The life and times of Judge Roy Bean (a classic!!)

Darby O gill and the little people (I know thats an odd one)

The Nightmare before X-mas

Deadmen don't wear plaid.

Young Frankenstein

The Thin Man movies

Dragonslayer

Big Fish

Aliens (alien 2)

Das Boot

(see what I mean...I could go on and on)

 

There are some movies on these lists that I can't stand, that i think are terrible, but there are others that are reminding me ones that should have been on my list (if I had space for 100)

Apocalypse Now
THX-1138
Equilibrium
Harrison Bergeron
Rope
Arsenic and Old Lace
Roman Holiday
Airplane!
All of Me
Lawrence of Arabia
Usual Suspects
LA Confidential
American History X

 

We need a category, like top ten Sci-fi, Adventure, Romance, Action, Period or Drama ...etc.
