Best movies of all time?
 

what do you think about the accuracy of this list?

http://us.imdb.com/top_250_films

hey where's Smokey & the Bandit... hehehe....

The should kick off ever movie made in the last 5 years.

Did I overlook Shane (with Alan Ladd), which is my favorite western of all time, or is it on the list?

It's not bad, but The MAtrix is about 33 spots too low...

Robert DeNiro

jupp!
Judi Fosters brake trought preformance . DeNiro is awsome in that movie

Are you talkin to me?

Are you fukkin talkin to me?

Good to see Kurosawa's movie at #8, given the fact that many voters are Americans

Here's my favorite movie list (in no particular order):
-Star Wars (whole trilogy)
-Pulp Fiction
-Fight Club
-Magnolia
-Friday
-Trading Places

seven would be my favorite. minority report the best i;ve seen this year by a long shot

I hated The Matrix.
Great concept, shitty ending

True. Most movies made today it seems like they have the McDonalds execs right there while they're editing the script to figure out how they can create some Value Meal pack out of it or stuff a toy in a happy meal. Bullshit marketing!

funny.... last week i ordered 3 movies from netflix:
taxi driver #31 and apocalypse now #32. along with harry potter too. but it was odd they came one after another.

you must be pissed cuss they forgot to give you a toy with your happy meal? :winkwink:

Favourite film: Barton Fink

Film I hate the most: Forrest Gump

1. Paul Schrader's tight, insightful screenplay
2. Scorsese's uncompromising direction
3. Deniro's inspired performance

Jodie Foster and Harvey Keitel are amazing too.

I Only like about 50% of the movies listed, and the order they are listed is way off from my personal taste.

Where's Heat?

Wow Amélie is #16 impressive
I gotta admit i loved that movie

I liked godfather part 2 better than part 1 but still the godfather trilogy gets my toplist

guess what?

i rented godfather and shawshank redemption today... liked them both a lot...

i cant believe i havent seen godfather until today :)

Hahahaha.. Clerks is on the list !!

As I read thru this thread, Shawshank Redemption came to mind as one of my all time favs and it's #2 !!

I did NOT see Fletch or Caddyshack on the list tho.

Full Metal Jacket
Se7en
Shawshank Redemption
Fight Club
American History X
To Kill A Mockingbird
Stand By Me
Goodfellas
The Breakfast Club
Dogma

I just got "Clerks" on DVD the other night...some fuckface at Walmart accidently marked it along with the $5.88 movies nobody other than me have heard of....


Am I the only person who didn't like Citizen Kane? I don't care for Psycho either and my fellow fright fiends oevr at joblo.com razz me about it....I also fucking hated Titanic...I only saw it to see Leonardo DiCapprio die......

Typical choice for a FUS.

Haha, love that movie.

any movie list where "toy story 2" is twice as high as "being john malkovich" and internet geeks skewing starwars higher than it should be isn't exactly a definitive and binding guide.

Braveheart (71???), Pulp Fiction, and Goodfellas sould be higher

anyone seen Mulholland Dr.? heard its a good, but wierd, movie....was listed somewhere in the 100's

Hm, i miss Deep Throat in that list...

I have. Typical David Lynch movie.
Some people like it, some don't.
I think it's just easy to make a weird movie, so it shouldn't be in top 200. I wish he would make good movies, too, not just weird

I liked The Green Mile.. didn't see that on the list.. and I didn't see these on the list and they are good:

Frank Herbert's Dune
U-571 (really excellent... IMHO) :thumbsup

Rosemary's Baby.

It might be easy to make a weird movie but it's not easy to make a David Lynch movie!

"The Straight Story" wasn't too weird.

I cant believe nobody has mentioned 'The Shinning' !

I don't either. The movie bored me, and DeNiro is one of favorite actors. But his role in the movie "Awakenings" was the most incredible acting i've ever seen him do. It's worth to watch this movie just to see DeNiro act. Pure brilliance. I'll never understand why he didn't get an oscar for that one.

Glad to see Shawshank and Memento up there in the top 10.

Why are once upon a time in america/west and carlito's way never posted by someone, I think I like these movies most.

I prefer this list.

The AFI also put out a list of their picks for the top 100 movies ever made, you can see it here.

The Filmsite list is in alphabetical order while the AFI list is in order of best to worst.

The music was great too.

The movie also remains timless and has shown to be a major influence on almost every aspect of modern pop culture, with such diverse students as The Clash all the way to the movie Seven.

I saw the godfather for one more time last weekend. Great movie, I love it, but I wouldn't put it as no1. I would vote for Apocalypse Now as the no1

Are you serious? Most of those movies on that list are boring. You and I must be of different generations cause half the films on your list were made before 1950.
