84. Toy StoryI lied about Ratatouille being my second favorite Pixar film. Toy Story actually is (it's late, so I forgot, forgive me). Revolutionaty film, that has helped spawn some great film, but unfortunately a massive amount of junk too. Not to mentioned it helped kill off traditional animation. All time favorite.

82. Pretty WomanJulia Roberts is so great in this, and it remains my favorite performace by her (though I havent seen all her films). My favorite romantic comedy.

81. Dirty DancingAwww, how I long to visit a country club and find the man of my dreams waiting there for me. I should be able to at least live with half of that if Zac Efron gets cast in the remake! Love this movie.

80. Lemony Snicket's A Series Of Unforunate EventsWhat I love most about this film is the look and feel. It's absolutely perfect. Love the cast, all the supporting roles were good, Aiken and Browning (they need new work!) were great, as was Carrey if he wasnt over the top just a bit. And no talk of sequels for this is terrible.

All for tonight. I'll probably go in increments of 20, so I should be finished WED.

 Re: KJ User's Top 100 Lists Vol.2 - Corpse
79. Kill Bill Vol.2I'm with jujubee on the Kill Bill series. I like Vol.1 more than Vol.2. Vol.2 Feels like a more complete film and is probably better as individual films, but Vol. 1 is more fun to watch, and I too like the soundtrack better. *waits for The Whole Bloody Affair*

77. Batman ReturnsMy favorite superhero film, and the only one on my list. Batman almost made it, but I decided to cut it. Love the atmosphere of this one more, and how so much character development is given to the villians rather than Batman.

76. The Devil Wears PradaBig surprise from 2006. It became one of my favorites from a weak 2006 (for me), and has grown on me each time I watch it.

75. House of Flying DaggersYimou is amazing. One of my favorite directors, and I love this film. Ziyi Zhang, from just 2004/2005 has become on of my favorite actresses, and I can say the same about Gong Li. The film is beautiful, love the score, and the ending is amazing.

74. Coal Miner's DaughterOne of the films I grew up watching, and it's a great movie. Sissy Spacek really shines here, and Tommy Lee Jones is also good.

73. The Princess BrideHow could somebody possibly not like this film? I first saw this by borrowing it from the library (I also did this with Gladiator too), and I LOVED it. Adorable, funny, and it really is a gem.

 Re: KJ User's Top 100 Lists Vol.2 - Corpse
I have always maintained that anyone who doesn't like The Princess Bride is an inhuman monster with no soul.
I never would have thought I'd meet one.
I don't want to single anyone out... but damn it Yoshue, you are an inhuman monster with no soul!!

 Re: KJ User's Top 100 Lists Vol.2 - Corpse
72. Memoirs of a GeishaI think critics must have taken some crazy pills before or during their review for this. Although, I would have liked it to have been a foriegn film and done in japanese instead. Love the cast, Zhang, Li, Yeoh, and Watanabe. Gorgeous film, that I felt the story and emotion matched it despite being slammed by critics.

 Re: KJ User's Top 100 Lists Vol.2 - Corpse
70. Children of MenOne of the biggest highlights from 2006. I'm not a big Clive Owen fan, mainly because I find his performances almost the exact same in every movie, and he has very little depth. But I was able to tolerate him in this, and probably liked him a little bit. The film looks great, has great performances, cinematography is nice, and I like the story. Ignored at the Oscars!? Hmm.

 Re: KJ User's Top 100 Lists Vol.2 - Corpse
Princess Bride is in my top 10
I kind of like Geisha too by the way. It's not in my favorites or anything, but it's a solid catfighting asian girls movie. Certainly better than the critics reaction.

 Re: KJ User's Top 100 Lists Vol.2 - Corpse
69. The ShiningOne of my all time favorite horror films. And it's so simple, but it really works. Simple is the key for horror films in my opinion. No complex storylines please. Keeping it quite simplistic can work so much better. Nicholson, as Im sure has already been said 101928 times, is perfect.
