I would love, love to see the Viking epic he has always flirted with.

Add me to the queue. My list isn't done, but by the time it gets to me I"ll be close and post what I have at the time. How many are in front of me?

I mean, how unbelievable awesome would that have been? I too think he should go back to directing, but I want another real Mel Gibson movie before that. I'm thrilled he's the main villain in Expendables but I don't like how he's just a better supporting actor now. Gibson rules the screen, he should be the lead in every movie he's starring in.

 Re: Return of the All-Time Top 100 Movie List Thread (Riggs)
I still need to see Little White Lies.
I slightly prefer Mad Max to the sequel, as evidenced by the first film's inclusion on my list, but I love both. I almost included The Road Warrior, too.
Perhaps the most surprising element of your list so far is your love of Jean-Pierre Jeunet, which I was not aware of.

Gladiator, Erin Brockovich, and LOTR are awesome choices.

I thought Road Warrior would be #1, top 5 at worst. Great movie, would probably end up in my 200-101s.

Oh and they're all fantastic, brilliant choices. I'm actually not that much into rom-coms, but the ones on my list, I love to death.

Almost no one here has seen it and I would be interested in your opinion of it. Though I'm well aware that this is one of those times were a movie just made click with me. I don't expect anyone to love it as much as I do. It grew A LOT on me during repeat viewings. It wasn't love at first sight.

 Re: Return of the All-Time Top 100 Movie List Thread (Riggs)
I love Meet Joe Black, too. Undervalued. And I wouldn't cut any of it. I dig the corporate-intrigue scenes as much as the central Death-on-holiday storyline.
And a terrific, terrific original score.
