Ok I love The Avengers but if it stole The Matrix' place I'm gonna riot

I only watched Jaws fairly recently because of @baumer

 

The scene where everyone is on the beach with their families and the shark strikes in an unexpected place...

 

Damn! What great tension building.

I would be ok with Avengers not making it. I mean the film is great and one of my faves, but I think it would have been outside of my top 100.....

 

Also, I think it is sad that the total # of films from the 50s, 40s & 30s isn't even HALF of the 1990s.... just a disgrace IMO

nature of the beast

 

people watch less older films, me included. I try to, though!

Inside Out is the best animated movie ever made IMO, and is the only animation movie in my top 25 (BOT has it at #20, I have it at #19)

 

It's quite simply brilliant. The writers of this movie are absolute geniuses.

My mother took me to see Saving Private Ryan -- in the theater.  It's 1998, and this is when the film's being hailed as "the most violent movie ever" or whatever The Today Show as up-in-arms about.  I wanted to go!  It's Steven Spielberg! And Mom never had any issues with violence or swearing (it was just sex.  That was the big no-no).  I was the youngest person there by at least fifteen, maybe twenty years.

   

The theater was completely sold out.  It was an old theater with the aisle down the middle.  We sat about halfway back from the screen, all the way against the wall.  Before the movie started an usher actually came into the theater, stood at the front, and said: "This movie is incredibly violent, please be advised.  If you want to leave now, please do so."

 

Mom turned to me and asked if I wanted to leave.  I was like, Nah.  I'm good.

 

So the movie starts.  And it goes on.  And we get about halfway through, and I turn to her to say: "I have to go to the bathroom."  And she looks at me and says: "We are NOT getting up."  So I sat there for an hour having to go to the bathroom.  I don't remember anything else.  When it ended, Mom asked if I liked it.  I said, "No, I had to go to the bathroom."

 

 

Thanks @Water Bottle for the new emote by the way

So many amazing movies in these last few spots.

 

Casablanca I rewatched recently, it gets even better each time.

 

Truly a magnificent movie!

Thoroughly enjoyable even after 49 years and over 100 viewings. The background score i.e. A Soldier's tale, The Ecstasy of Gold, the title, the showdown and the credits, is awesome. "  - @jb007

 

100 viewings!?

I can never make my damn mind on which is better between the 2 ALIENS

 

Right now Aliens has the edge

speaking of the devil

Incredible movie

have you guys seen the extended cut of Aliens?

 

It was pretty interesting, but not sure I like it more than the theatrical

I like a good deal of that movie's dialogue as it is written and delivered. Wouldn't wanna give up the "father to a murdered son" speech, for starters. 

 

Oh not saying it's bad, it just would be the most amazing historical movie ever made to me

[The Final Countdown: BOT's Top 100 Movies of All-Time - The List is Complete, The Empire is Dead, I Now Go to the Grey Havens]

Sometimes I like to imagine how amazing Gladiator would have been if, like The Passion of the Christ, it had been filmed in the languages of the time (Aramaic, Latin, Hebrew)

 

One can only dream

I prefer Rear Window to be honest, much more cohesive film.

 

But this one is still great, missed my top 100 by a thread.

Well whadya know, I wanna discover new foreign films 

[The Final Countdown: BOT's Top 100 Movies of All-Time - The List is Complete, The Empire is Dead, I Now Go to the Grey Havens]

I would simply like to point out that from #96 to 52, there wasn't a single foreign film in the list! Once Upon a Time in the West doesn't count, it was filmed in English.

 

Insane!

 

Personally I have 20 foreign films on my top 100, a number I wish to increase in the coming year.

[The Final Countdown: BOT's Top 100 Movies of All-Time - The List is Complete, The Empire is Dead, I Now Go to the Grey Havens]

Finally, a foreign film! lmao
