  1. you are being generous, the avengers, Skyfall and spring breakers are on the list, then again, I feel the urge to mention the perks of being a wallflower, it's a good movie, but it seems to be getting to much attention possibly because it's new. that and it stole my song, never gonna get over that.
  2. in what film? this film's great brings back 1980's elements, and put the monster/alien genre back on it's toes. the only film I think that shouldn't be on you're list. That and maybe Wreck it Ralph but I'l let that one go.
  3. This Means it's like the comic, as long as it stays true to what happens, I think this movie will be decent. from the comic's I got a big "WTH is going to happen next" thought, do you get this with the movie as well>?< don't spoil a yes or no answer will be fine, thanks.
  4. The Hunger Games wasn't very good, the cinematography in that film was atrocious. Also it makes me think of Battle Royal, Which is a great movie that deals with a similar type of game, but in a much more engaging kind of way. The Avengers I would also second in voting off just because it's totally boring the second viewing and couldn't imagine myself re-watching.
  5. after reviewing the list there is about 100 films from the 00's and beyond I would say need to go a few from the 90's and like 2 or 3 from the 80's one of them placed there by me, don't I feel special! Now first off Id Like to Throw in 2 movies I haven't finished watching but was uninterested or disappointed enough for me to mention them. I'm sure I am creating enemies but this is my oppinion. Urotsakidoji: Legend of the Overfiend. I just don't think it fits within this list, I feel that this movie would be better suited in a " Craziest Movies you have to see before you die" list and I'l probably be the only one stating this, meaning it will probably end up staying. Telemachos you were right about one thing it is an unforgettable film. and the Great Gatsby, clearly a pretentious effort, that seeks out youth as it's audience, that's never able from what I've seen to really keep flowing without intolerable distractions. A prime example of a film that tried to hard. Man of steel - I have a question? can anyone tell me there favorite part of this film? that's not a special effect. this movie is loaded with crummy effects which helps the terrible dialogue and same old story we've heard a trillion times flow. Everything in this film especially all the characters are the most bland thing you can experience in a movie, even Amy Adams who I was really into before this movie made me want to puke, there was just No substance, and I know that's Zack Snyder all Style and no Substance, but it's the combination which makes a good movie. Now when we think about this film what comes to mind? the special effects which were sometimes pretty cool and that's it because there's nothing else in this film that anyone really ever cared about other then superman kicking ass, and flying around. My point being S.F/X don't make a film, they make a lousy film. And did anyone else notice the annoying shake cams, like god damn with all those millions you can't even use a tripod! like it's fine once in a while but Zack Snyder just doesn't know when to quit with it. Clueless - . I'd like to vote this off simply because it's not cool to be clueless. Batman and Robin - I don't even think I have to say anything, this film will get voted off regardless. Alice in Wonderland(2010) - The Day I went to go see this, I have to say I was pumped to see what Burton had in store for us. Too Bad I had high hopes because I didn't come out of this one with a new take on anything, I literally got a crummier version of what we've already seen, I mean Alice in wonderland the T.v movie was more entertaining then this. Burton's film is bad from the get-go the beginning feels flat and rushed, this movie never seems to take a breather. with all the big named actors and money to add in all these Special effects we see, we never really get enough development or interesting dialogue, and yes the scene with johnny Depp as the mad hatter who kept on appearing quite randomly, didn't strike me as interesting, well written or entertaining at all. when we heard that Tim Burton is making an Alice in wonderland movie, everyone thought, finally a dark take on a classic tale, but what we got was the exact same thing with big actors, which I think made the movie even more intolerable, maybe a laughable film come the future? The Little Mermaid - So I thought a lot about it and if i'm going to knock on one of these 80's- 90's Disney Films, this has got to be the one. So this movie starts off introducing us to a spoiled brat teenager who wants more in life which is all natural we are human, in her case a mermaid but what gets to me is how she gets what she wants and how they deal with it, I mean what she does sounds like a pretty good deal when you're young, stupid and naive right? the reason I'm mentioning this is because later on in the story she never really learns anything, what she learns, if she learns anything at all, is when I mess up daddy is going to come and bail me out no matter how crazy that SQUIDWOMAN is! Seriously this movie has one of the worst messages in any Disney movie to young girls.I'm not saying that this movie is or isn't going to effect you, but just look at honey boo boo and tell me our society hasn't taken a toll from sublimination, I mean maybe i'm looking into this to much or not enough but besides the music, this film really isn't all that entertaining, and knowing where I am I know this film won't get voted off but I thought people should see this point of view before thinking of this movie as a classic or one of the great Disney films because it is to many, but there's just to many wtf's in this movie for me to not say anything. Mulan - BE A MAN ! best song for a birthday card! So I just thought I'd like to point out this movie is pretty darn stupid for adults a slender woman who disguises herself as a man and when everyone finds out there all surprised? like wth! what's the point of this in the first place, steal you're fathers uniform so that he won't go to war ><, You really outdone yourself here Disney! First of all the guy couldn't even walk he clearly wouldn't be along the front lines, he might have even been able to score himself a desk job. But stupid Mulan has to steal his Gear and I guess that makes him a free man? No one seeing this through? I guess not. Just terrible. little kids might not know the difference and that fine, I remember enjoying this movie at a fairly young age, but now, it's like give me a break and that's why I don't think it belongs on this list or nowhere near.

  7. I love the craze about World War Z right now! give it 5 years and none of you will even remember it, or come to you're sense and realize what you watched was simply terrible. Now i'm not an expert on zombies, but I can distinguish seeing a good film from a bad one. Night of the Living Dead(1968) Dawn of the Dead(1978) Braindead Evil Dead 2(1987) 28 Days Later Evil Dead(1981) Shaun of the Dead Army of Darkness(1992) Dawn of the Dead(2004) Planet Terror Zombieland 28 Weeks Later Rec I Am Legend Resident Evil Fido World War Z I'm not sure which movie is worse Fido or World War Z but I enjoyed Fido a bit more. their is so many zombie movies! I was using this as a reference sheet to get down the one's I've seen. http://www.imdb.com/list/WvGFgtqnv2k/
  8. the point of the guilty pleasure is that you can accept the faults and all the idiocracy of a film that you think is terrible and end up enjoying it, usually because stupidity is humorous. In a way I guess batman and kung pow we're suppose to make fun of movies like this( not so much batman). so I guess it doesn't fit to well, but both are funny bad, and battlefield earth is terrifically terrible because it try's so hard to be something and ends up just coming off ridiculous. literally watching this film is a complete joy it's like what would happen if they made a 12 year make a movie, the script the camera angles, the acting, it's all priceless, and feels like a Kid with a lot of money crafted this fine piece of S**T and presented it to the world,
  9. list you're favorite movies that are straight up terrible. Personally I love bad movies that make me laugh these are my favorites. Battlefeild Earth Kung Pow: Enter the first And 1966's Batman
  10. I'd like to vote in favour of keeping Battlefeild Earth on this list
  11. I'm okay with it going off, just trying to stand by a great film.
  12. you haven't even seen it, you should have to see the movie to vote off, just saying.
  13. another thing you shouldn't be able to vote of a film that you havean't seen
  14. Are you kidding me? this movie is amazingly entertaining for it's subject matter. it's an emotionally driven story that deals with the difficulties of growing up and how strict, confided and religious environments can lead to further confusion and in the end dealing with you're problems in a psychotically delusional manor. you not liking this film certainly say enough about yourself.
  15. I try not to waste my time with such trash. Live free of Die Hard is the only film I've seen here and it was decent, not nearly good enough to be on a 1001 to see before you die list. The Action is decent with a predictable plot and a few interesting characters but it really doesn't take away from the point that we're watching Bruce Willis be a superhero again. Can we say enough already! In the end it's a mediocre sequel to the Die Hard movie and I would like to say that I'd be happy with only mentioning the original.
  16. fair enough, I thought of adding a few guilty pleasures since you added that manga-Hentai film, that was extremely ridiculously insane, I really like Anime like the Devil Man which is probably the closest thing to this I've seen or wicked city which I also didn't finish watching or enjoy enough to pick it up again. I'm sure one day I might finish watching these but as of now I just feel like there very ridiculous and more of a guilty pleasure film, then anything. I would get it if the Devil Man was one of the 1001. but not everyone is entertained by half porn half action anime films, I'm not all saying there bad films but there not for everyone. I could be wrong but just stating my opinion.
  17. Now if Welcome to the Dollhouse doesn't make it, then we're gonna have some problems 2 movies I don't see listed that I think should be on here is ^ welcome to the dollhouse and bubble.
  18. You seriously didn't like this movie? I love movies that let you know they're trying to be the stupidest thing on the planet, and succeed at that. I guess I won't be heart broken if this doesn't make it, but it's one very hilarious film that I think people should see. This is one of those turn your brain off and enjoy films, that are just completely ridiculous.
  19. The Devils(1971) The Enigma of Kasper Hauser(1974) Scarface(1983) Police Academy(1984) Top Secret(1984) Down By Law(1986) The Naked Gun(1988) Drugstore Cowboy(1989) Mystery Train(1989) Braindead(1992) Malcolm X(1992) Batman: Mask of the Phantasm(1993) Ninja Scroll(1993) True Romance(1993) Casino(1995) Clockers(1995) Friday(1995) Welcome to the Dollhouse(1995) Sling Blade(1996) Run, Lola Run(1998) The Iron Giant(1999) About a Boy(2002) The Dangerous Lives of Alter Boys(2002) Minority Report(2002) School of Rock(2003) Downfall(2004) Kung Fu Hustle(2004) The Machinist(2004) Millions(2004) Bubble(2005) The Girl who Leapt Through Time(2006) The Fall(2006) This is England(2006) The Dajeering Limited(2007) Gommorah(2008) The Curious Case of Benjamin Button(2008) Hunger(2008) 127 Hours(2010) Shutter Island(2010) Django Unchained(2012)
  20. I should have just kept my stupid big mouth shut! . Anyways good job on House of wax and a few others
  21. pretty much everything but Aladdin, I think that might be one of the only straight to vhs films on here, it's a pretty annoying and clearly does not fit within 1001 Must See's. I would tell my kids to skip this one, everyone else above the age of 8 knows this movie is stupid just like the little mermaid the only thing holding these movies together is music and if you don't dig those you don't like the movies.
  22. if you're going to nominate a David Ayer film weather he wrote or was directing go with Training day or Harsh Times, End of Watch is mediocre for the modern day at best. there's possibly 30-40 films in 2012 alone that are better films, I still think it was decent but not nearly as noteworthy as these( Cloud Atlas, Beasts of the Southern Wild, Life of Pi, Lincoln, Zero Dark Thirty, Silver Linings Playbook, Bernie, The Perks of being a Wall flower, Indie Game: The movie, Holy Motors, Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, Arbitrage, Detachment, Wreck It Ralph, The Dark Knight Rises, The Hobbit: an Unexpected journey, Argo, Prometheus, Promised Land, Dredd, John Dies at the End, The Grey, Safety not Guaranteed, Flight, God Bless America, Seven Psychopaths, Savages, Looper, Django Unchained). How many is that? what we should be doing is looking at the classic or more underground films that the original list missed, and fill in the holes with those, Not blockbusters or new films people are obsessing over because there new. you know the last list I just submitted I named to Karate Kid and the temple of Doom how many of you wanna bet that if it was 1985 Those films would have already been listed, my point being people are getting carried away.
