HSX Users Best of the Century Poll - Entry post Moviesnob Jun 29, 12:53

Let me be the first to compliment you on your REALLY WEIRD TOP 10 :-) {nm} JMT-NL Jun 29, 12:56

thanks! i think? {nm} Moviesnob Jun 29, 13:00

Observe and report ??? ... For one {nm} JMT-NL Jun 29, 13:11

Solid list. Plus you and I have a couple that overlap, but won't say which. My #1 isn't even on your list, and your #10 skamanfu Jun 29, 13:39

I knew O&R would be controversial. For me the whole antagonist as a hero (and how its so true to that belief) is refresing Moviesnob Jun 29, 14:11

my brother and I quote it all the time. love that film. {nm} lobogotti Jun 29, 17:06

Here's mine (inside)... joeoftexas Jun 29, 13:55

you've great, classical choices on here {nm} Moviesnob Jun 29, 14:24

Thanks! It was hard for me to narrow it down to a 10 "Best" selection... BTW, I also came up with a completely different "Favorites" list. {nm} joeoftexas Jun 29, 14:31

post it! I have a flash drive I take with me on trips that has 75 of my favorite "comfort movies". Moviesnob Jun 29, 14:58

Here you go (inside)... joeoftexas Jun 30, 07:19

Here's mine... TwoMisfits Jun 29, 14:13

Toy Story 3 beginning and end were great A+, the middle gets a D - can't tell you how much I hated that storyline {nm} JDolphin Jun 29, 14:36

I agree the middle of Toys 3 might need a touch more work TwoMisfits Jun 29, 15:23

I agree with you on the begin and end parts in the house, but then that's ruined for me when i think of the rest of the movie. {nm} JDolphin Jun 29, 19:40

Here's mine numbersix_99 Jun 29, 14:31

Scott Pilgrim Vs The World makes my weirdest movies of the years least but not good enough to make top 10 {nm} JDolphin Jun 29, 14:33

I could write essays on why this is the film of this generation. {nm} numbersix_99 Jun 30, 00:33

first time I saw Pilgrim I hated it. watched it again and realized it was a masterpiece. excellent film {nm} lobogotti Jun 30, 08:36

its wierd, despite *loving* rushmore and (moonrise and budapest since), i *hated* rushmore upon inital viewing. i must give it a 2nd chance islander Jun 29, 15:17

(oops i meant hated royal tennebaums) {nm} islander Jun 29, 15:18

You're not the only one:)...Royal T was a big letdown for me... {nm} TwoMisfits Jun 29, 15:25

What can I say? I think its his best attempt at mixing light/quirky and dark/serious. {nm} numbersix_99 Jun 30, 00:32

Thanks a lot! Here are mine. tatoufan Jun 29, 14:35

i feel bad leaving off dark knight. i also feel bad never having seen eternal sunshine or oldboy! {nm} islander Jun 29, 15:01

Dark Knight makes my most disappointed list (I think I gave it a C-), the other 2 are on my list to see. {nm} JDolphin Jun 29, 15:04

I had a list of about 20, and trimming it wasn't easy, but Had fun widdling the list down though. tatoufan Jun 29, 16:51

I had Memento and Inception on my possibles TwoMisfits Jun 29, 15:18

be still my heart on #8... love that film {nm} lobogotti Jun 29, 17:08

thanks, eager to see how it turns out! (mine) islander Jun 29, 14:52

great list {nm} lobogotti Jun 29, 17:09

Thanks for your list, and others, too. I'll post next week. {nm} second gary Jun 29, 15:09

Here I go (films in no particular order) CG63 Jun 29, 15:20

My Top 10 Antibody Jun 29, 15:26

outstanding list, sir...here's mine MrZero Jun 29, 15:31

Ah, "The Fall" was great, great fun. {nm} second gary Jun 29, 15:45

My Top 10 (thought I'd be the only one with Enter the Void :P ) Andre C Jun 29, 16:16

worked on this before I left and forwarded to my phone. I also included my top 2 from each year that didn't make to final 10... lobogotti Jun 29, 17:04

is this in no order or is Whiplash #1? {nm} Moviesnob Jun 29, 17:35

In order, sorry. {nm} lobogotti Jun 29, 17:36

so whiplash is 1, right? {nm} Moviesnob Jun 29, 17:45

yes {nm} lobogotti Jun 29, 17:48

awesome 2014! {nm} islander Jun 29, 17:53

so great! {nm} lobogotti Jun 29, 17:59

meant for islander {nm} lobogotti Jun 29, 17:59

A great list, and a fine solution for listing honourables. {nm} second gary Jun 29, 21:09

thank you, looking forward to yours {nm} lobogotti Jun 30, 08:05

12 entries so far. {nm} Moviesnob Jun 29, 18:42

if im seeing right, i see 7 movies directed/co-directed by women. not being controversial, im just saying... islander Jun 29, 19:14

City of God was directed by a man. and no, thats not controversial. theres a big disparity in opportunity between men and women {nm} Moviesnob Jun 29, 19:31

(wiki has Katia Lund as a co-director) {nm} islander Jun 29, 19:36

but i dont know how involved she was, or about billing, etc {nm} islander Jun 29, 19:36

no, you're right. I was unaware they shared the chair {nm} Moviesnob Jun 29, 19:40

My list... capitolfi Jun 29, 19:31

high five for high fidelity! (and its in your top 5 which is fitting) {nm} islander Jun 29, 19:53

I'll give it a go. goodvibe61 Jun 29, 22:05

Great list! Hey whole bloody affair. Trust me I want to add it to but since it wasn't ever released you have to pick a vol {nm} Moviesnob Jun 29, 23:39

Vol 1 then. {nm} goodvibe61 Jun 30, 08:17

that's what i picked too {nm} Moviesnob Jun 30, 09:52

And almost famous counts if its 2000 so you can include it {nm} Moviesnob Jun 29, 23:43

Put it at 10 then. Wow that's tough, Perros is a masterpiece. {nm} goodvibe61 Jun 30, 08:17

agree, but its been damaged a bit for me by his recent output although i really loved Revenant {nm} Moviesnob Jun 30, 09:53

A great list: nice to see "The White Ribbon" and "Michael Clayton," even on among the honourables. {nm} second gary Jun 30, 07:27

My List. thx for this ryeontherocks Jun 30, 09:27

Here's my Top 10 loveman3 Jun 30, 09:28
