If only I had seen it before voting...

I'm surprised this didn't crack the list after the 20 pages of discussion in the Everyone's A Critic forum.

This is sufficient enough to discard and reboot.

good that it has the essentials (Hitchcock, Kubrick, 12 angry men, Lawrence of Arabia, Godfathers).


anyways my top 20

1.The Godfather
2.The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Ring
3.Lawrence Of Arabia
4.Buono, Il Brutto, Il Cattivo, Il (The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly)
5.Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back
6.The Shawshank Redemption
7. Schindler's List
8.The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King
9.The Godfather Part II
10.12 Angry Men
11. Mr. Smith Goes To Washington
12. Goodfellas
13. One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest
14. Star Wars
15. Vertigo
16. Shichinin No Samurai (Seven Samurai)
17. Saving Private Ryan
18. Patton
19. Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
20. Taxi Driver

My top 20:

1. The Passion of Joan of Arc
2. Ed Wood
3. City Lights (#75)
4. Before Sunset (#23)
5. The General
6. Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (#28)
7. Singin' In The Rain (#33)
8. Citizen Kane (#44)
9. Nashville
10. Before Sunrise
11. The Producers
12. Children Of Men (#63)
13. E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial (#39)
14. Sen To Chihiro No Kamikakushi (Spirited Away) (#69)
15. Star Wars (#11)
16. The Manchurian Candidate
17. The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King (#1 (I honeslty don't know why I thought it needed it...)
18. Babe
19. Terminator 2: Judgment Day (#15)
20.Metropolis

So, hit and miss. My votes for City Lights and Before Sunset obviously helped, but they did no good for The Passion of Joan of Arc, Ed Wood, Nashville or The General.

Cinderella Man ~250-255
Shakespeare In Love also 250-255

Positive Jon has officially been invited to partake in the alt-WOKJ 100 Greatest Movies.

Now we just need someone to actually organize this...

....

....

Box?

Great top 3.

hahaha, ftw.

Can't really complain with what made it from my ballot's top twenty...except that the highest placing one is like, 20 something.

03. Annie Hall
06. Vertigo
07. 2001: A Space Odyssey
09. Casablanca
10. Chinatown
14. Taxi Driver
15. Singin' In The Rain
16. Citizen Kane
17. City Lights
18. Psycho
20. Cidade De Deus (City of God)

More or less what I thought upon reading it.

Alex: The fact is most of The NEw World's thread is the small group of supporters orgasming about the film and defending it from Zing and Da Torri, and eventually a bunch of people going "eh."

I re-submitted my ballot after watching it though?

At around 135

i though you voted for the new one for a second...

Thanks!

I can't believe Shakespeare In Love is that low

I didn't vote because Cinema Paradiso had no shot.

I'm sorry Makeshift, but I can't. I'll be starting school in less than a month, and all my free time will be down the tube then

Seven Samauri obviously isn't as good as Face/Off.

52/100 on my list made it

You're right. It got zero votes.
