Much like our previous listing, How to Train Your Dragon was one of the best-reviewed films of its year. It swoops into the list at #42.
RT Consensus: "Boasting dazzling animation, a script with surprising dramatic depth, and thrilling 3D sequences, How to Train Your Dragon soars."
yeah I said at the beginning of the list that Interstellar didn't make it.
There are a few 2014 films left, but they're not blockbusters and you guys should hopefully be more pleased with them. As I said, the 2014 films are (for the most part) all right in the middle of the 100.
I wasn't on the forum then, were lots of people really confident in Pacific Rim?
Tomorrowland does star George Clooney, that's a pretty major difference.

The legendary Trek franchise was revitalised in 2009, bringing it into the modern day. Abrams' reboot beams into our list at #44.
RT Consensus: "Reignites a classic franchise with action, humor, a strong story, and brilliant visuals, and will please traditional Trekkies and new fans alike."
What do you mean, "not even close"? 1.94x is not close to 2x?
That frustrates me too. I don't even like Fast and Furious but Bay's movies are so utterly offensive and foul. I would even describe some of them as evil. It's completely incomparable.
edit: I don't think FF treats women appropriately, but it's not even close to Bay

Rocking to its '70s soundtrack, Guardians of the Galaxy dances its way into our list at #45.
RT Consensus: "Just as irreverent as fans of the frequently zany Marvel comic would expect -- as well as funny, thrilling, full of heart, and packed with visual splendor."

Part 2 of Tarantino's double bill of gore came in at #92, but Kill Bill Volume 1 slashes its way into our top 50.
RT Consensus: "Kill Bill is nothing more than a highly stylized revenge flick. But what style!"
