Boxoffice.com's Top 100 Films of All Time 2013: THE RESULTS (final list in OP)

[CJohn]

It's insanely entertaining. Done.

+1

[CaptainJackSparrow]

It's also insanely ridiculous. Armageddon makes more sense and Bay even admits that he wrote it full well knowing that a lot of it didn;t make sense.

I thought you liked Bay's movies?

[JarJarBinks]

Nice jump for Dr. Strangelove

[CJohn]

So I assume we won't be getting Revenge of the Sith this year. Good to see that Star Wars OT is coming.

[baumer]

Most of this list is shit so far.

[CaptainJackSparrow]

Still a little too high, but a great film. ... don't think it makes up for Signs, Ice Age 2 & Cloverfield in top 5 though.

In, Ice Age 1 was at my number 2 spot, not Ice Age 2. But that also Made the list.

[Dementeleus]

It's also insanely ridiculous.  Armageddon makes more sense and Bay even admits that he wrote it full well knowing that a lot of it didn;t make sense.  

 

Who cares? I go to movies to be entertained.

 

(I feel like you're using my general film arguments against me, and I'm using yours. What is this, bizarro world?)

[Jake Gittes]

TDKR was fine as far as entertainment, but even there TDK blows it out of the water, and with far less epic (read: overblown) set-pieces.

[AdamKendall]

In, Ice Age 1 was at my number 2 spot, not Ice Age 2. But that also Made the list.

Oh yeah, my mistake ... would hate to mix those two up.

 

 

Oh yeah, I've become Box Office Gold.

Read what I wrote again.  I said TDKR makes less sense than Armageddon.  I love Armageddon but Bay deliberately took liberties with the script to make it more entertaining.  TDKR has a lot more script problems than ARMGDN.

[Dementeleus]

DR. STRANGELOVE deserves to be a lot higher than the 40s.

[CaptainJackSparrow]

Oh yeah, my mistake ... would hate to mix those two up. :POh yeah, I've become Box Office Gold.

I also put Godzilla 1998 at 7. I know I will recieve hate for that.

[baumer]

Would love to stay up to read the rest of this.  But I won't.  Shit films in here so far.  Glad Halloween and Usual Suspects made the list so far but both should be way higher.  Citizen Kane can suck it and TDKR and KB1 are horrible inclusions.

[Dementeleus]

I also put Godzilla 1998 at 7.I know I will recieve hate for that.

 

Lord, man, you really need to watch some more movies.

[Punishment]

I think I will also leave you guys. Would love to continue to follow this and read Ric's review of this top but that may not happen.
