I deem the bolded ones as groovy. :2up:
I did not like Out of Sight or Natural Born Killers. Swingers is one of my all time favorite comedies.

When did that new av kick in? BTW, Tony, please change yours...that look is freaking the hell out of me. Its like whoever that is, she's posessed, or hiding a nervous breakdown, or something really uncomoftable along those lines *shudders*

This is my (not yours) worst list yet. I've only seen three and a half (haven't seen sunset) of them. Out of Sight, Before Sunrise, the Rock, and Iron Giant. Iron Giant is a great little gem, and well researched too, its a shame more people haven't seen it. The Rock I saw so long ago I don't even really remember it. Out of Sight, booo, J.Lo. But on the other hand, its when she was still Jennifer Lopez, and not J.Lo, and it was ok of a film. But now that she's J.Lo, you'll never catch me admitting anyone of her past works was decent. It would storke her ego too much, she'd probably become even more bland of a personality if thats at all possible.

I know. I barely can. Often...I cry myself to sleep. My conscience is plagued with such doubts, I search my soul incessantly. How could I have yet not witnessed Ewan McGregor's breakthrough performance? Or seen Liam Neeson fall for a woman over half his age? *sob* Now excuse me, I think there are some sleeping pills with my name on them.

By the way, did you have Dawn of the Dead in your top 100? I thought you gave them an A+.

There are a number of A+ films I graded that didn't make the cut, DotD was one of them.
Grades weren't a large part of my criteria.

All superb choices, Loyal. Special props go to the inclusion of The Talented Mr Ripley and Starship Troopers so high in your list.

About a Boy, 2001, Holy Grail, Dr. Strangelove, and Kill Bill were all in my Top 100. Dr. Strangelove and 2001 are in my top ten \:D/

20. About A Boy (2002)
19. Mission Impossible (1996)
17. Monty Python's Holy Grail (1974)
11. Kill Bill Volumes I/II (2003/2004)

Not only is Starship Troopers a great commentary on Nazi culture, it's a fantastic science fiction film.

Great number 1, though I've never seen it, I've heard enough to know that this was a good choice. Glad to see you stuck around and finished your list.

I managed to finally see the first 15 minutes of it a few days ago and was utterly shocked at how bland it was. Maybe it is just beyond me, but I have no intention of seeing the rest of it...ever 17. Monty Python's Holy Grail (1974) <-- Another over-rated cult classic that the first 15 minutes were enough for me, don't intend to finish this one either 15. Starship Troopers (1997) <-- Great choice, under-rated and quite original. Humorous, silly, over-the-top fun (don't see the sequel though as it is simply terrible) 12. Aliens (1986) <-- Excellent choice 11. Kill Bill Volumes I/II (2003/2004) <-- My #2 film
