Unless they agree to do a Matrix reboot...
I would not be surprised if they had agreed to do another Matrix movie in order to get JA greenlit.

More like "we'd better stop making horrendous original sci-fi"
More like "we should probably stop giving so much money to the Wachowskis".

The arrogance of admins is thinking forum members are in their control and not the other way around.
Let them fight.
A movie has been quoted, it is automatically considered a good movie now.
I actually liked Godzilla, but I know I'm in the minority there.

I thought that 30M number was for the weekend. Jesus, this is insane and for an R-rated movie at that.

Yes, yes it was full of quotable lines:
"Your move reindeer games"
"He's adopted"
"I actually got that reference"
"Puny god"
just some real quick ones
Do you actually know people that use those quotes? And other people instantly get the quote? The only one I think is recognizable is "Puny god" and that one seems hard to use in conversation.

So now if a movie has good quotes that makes the entire film good? I'm laughing my ass off at your logic.
Was Avengers a quotable movie? I honestly can't think of quotes from that movie.

I guess book readers aren't as big of a fan of the adaptation, which is understandable because book readers for any show/movie rarely feel fully satisfied with the adaptation.
But for non-readers like myself, GOT is a pretty amazing show filled with incredible plot, characters, and twists.
It helps to have amazing source material that contains all of that incredible plot, character, and twists. And it seems like most book readers are fully satisfied with the first season. The problem I've had with D&D as they've tried to condense the books to TV is they seem to lack the understanding of some of the character motivations that lead up to key events that they have to use from the books.

"No show is ranked where it is supposed to be." - Everyone in this thread.
I do think that judging by the amount of high rated cable dramas that not enough people have seen Deadwood, Rome, and Carnivale given their respective positions. That seems to be a flaw in using a cumulative points system, it tends to lean towards what has been viewed by a wider audience. I really can't see a way around that problem, though.

Maybe, but then what is #6?
Simpsons.

To be honest, when I made my list, I just ignored the bad seasons of many shows and focused on the good seasons and rated them accordingly from that. Shows like Heroes, Dexter, X-Files, Alias and others benefited from that distinction.

#77 Homicide: Life on the Streets - 103 Points
IMDB Rating:
Aired: 1993-1999 (NBC)Episodes: 122Genre: DramaList Trivia: Homicide: Life on the Streets is the second show so far that received a #1 ranking from a user. The first was The Good Wife.Storyline: A one-hour drama inspired by David Simon's acclaimed non-fiction book "Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets." It is at once a mundane yet compelling look in and around a Homicide unit of the Baltimore Police Department, a group of determined individuals who are committed to their grim job at hand.Opening Theme:
Yay, someone else put Homicide on their list and #1 at that. I don't know who it was, but I highly recommend The Wire to that person.

Can we stop equating Sony and movie theater chains to America, please?

We're not even in the top 100 yet and people are complaining about shows that made the list?

If there's any shows that don't have blurbs that are on my list, let me know and I can whip some up for them. Preferably stuff nearer to the top of it since those are probably fresher in my mind.

This movie reminds me of how I felt about KFP 2. I liked the original a lot, and the sequel isn't bad, it's just serviceable and doesn't trigger any strong feelings towards it.
-
Wait, someone had Transformers 2 as their #1 sci-fi film? Why do I get the feeling I know who that is.

#7:MOON (2009) - 228 points"Gerty, we're not programmed. We're people, do you understand?"
Director: Duncan JonesPremise: Astronaut Sam Bell has a quintessentially personal encounter toward the end of his three-year stint on the Moon, where he, working alongside his computer, GERTY, sends back to Earth parcels of a resource that has helped diminish our planet's power problems.
BOF user review: For a movie that cost about $3.85, the production values are outstanding. Rockwell is also outstanding. In fact, the film is quite outstanding as well. - baumerTrivia: Kevin Spacey read the script and agreed to voice Gerty but only when the film was finished and only if he liked it. Having loved it, he recorded his lines in half a day.Crap, I forgot to put Moon in my list.

This is moving so fast and I'm 10 pages behind so this has probably been posted already but at the end of the updated Variety article on MJ1
Does that seem really optimistic for BH6?

I wish we could have used 2014 movies as well. I feel like Interstellar and Edge of Tomorrow would have made the list. Maybe Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, but I haven't seen that yet.

I liked but since 2000 there hasn't been lot of good sci-fi movie.
Yeah it's not like there's a lot of groundbreaking, exceptional sci-fi movies since 2000. Sunshine is a solid film that isn't terrible or boring, thus it makes my list. It seems like most people downgrade it because of the sudden change in tone in the 3rd act. Since it didn't bother me when I viewed it other than an initial 'wtf is going on here', I didn't lower it on my list.

Snowpiercer over Cloud Atlas?! Wow...
I really wanted to like Cloud Atlas, but could never get into the movie. The only storyline I remember liking and wanting to see more of was the futuristic one with the asian clones.

I keep clicking this thread thinking there's some news to discuss and I don't know why I think that every time afterwards.
