#26 They have drunken master and finding nemo on there but not "Patton?" Best Picture 1973 and can't even crack the top 100 in this silly assed list? WTF!? BTW - here's some movies I dig: A Bridge Too Far Full Metal Jacket Dirty Dozen Sands of Iwo Jima Bridge Over the River Kwai Cross of Iron Apocalypse Now Excalibur The Great Escape Cool Hand Luke The Shawshank Redemption Enter the Dragon The Mechanic Das Boat All the early Bond flicks w/Connery Any Clint western for obvious reasons. |

#23 Awful list. Wouldn't hang around with those bores to watch one of their stupid flicks... Where was "The Forbidden Planet", "Rocky Horror", both versions of "Little Shop of Horrors", the "African Queen", all the Borgart flicks, the chillers and thrillers, the rock musicals, the sexploitation flicks, Clockwork Orange, and really strange stuff like 200 motels,.,,,,,, Really boring folks at Time Mag... Course they never got near a bus let alone on one. Where is ? where is? whole genres are missing. |

#22 I missed Searchers. I guess I have to take back my disgust. But they did leave out 2001 A Space Odessey. |

#21 I added True Grit on mine....maybe the Shootist as well.... Searchers was on there, right? |

#20 I think they left out any movie with John Wayne. Thats just down right Unamerican. I was content they included Casablanca and Dr Strangelove, two of the very best. |

#16 "The way that you wander is the way that you choose The day that you tarry is the day that you lose Sunshine or thunder a man will always wonder where the fair wind blows..." The You're tight - a classic and should be there. Will Geer was a major hoot, lol! |

#15 Id add Jeremiah Johnson although I'm probably a minority on that one. One of my favs |

#14 2 points: "Aguirre" can be viewed as a study of Hitler... Also, there is no list without the "Wild Bunch". |
Posted by: borgboy 2005-05-24 20:23 |
#13 I'd add Open Range and True Grit to the list if westerns weren't overrepresented (like French flix) |

#12 get the unrated/uncensored for hot puppet deviancy - gold rain and hot lunch delivered - yuk! The rest of the flick is a laugher! |

North By Northwest Catch-22 Fail-Safe 12 Angry Men To Kill A Mockingbird High Noon Zatoichi: The Blind Swordsman Seven Samurai Cowboy Bebop Enter The Dragon They DID get Drunken Master II, but hell, for sheer fun - anything with Jackie Chan. |

#9 What? No "Umberto D", "Ulysses' Gaze","Leolo", "Mouchette", "Barry Friggin Lyndon" on anybody's list? This probably looks like John Kerry's DVD collection. |
