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

[baumer]

You people should learn to have fun.

 

Where are the comedies ?

 

Check my list.  Comedies are well represented.  Porky's, A Christmas Story, Christmas Vacation, Goonies, Gremlins and so on.

[Michael Gary Scott]

Anchorman deserved a place on the list. My list had plenty of comedies on it.

[The Futurist]

Check my list.  Comedies are well represented.  Porky's, A Christmas Story, Christmas Vacation, Goonies, Gremlins and so on.

 

I just checked your list and I like it ( SLP 25 !) but you may be one of the few to have so many comedies in your top 100.

 

Comedies never get the respect they deserve. IN that regard, this forum is even worse than AMPAS ...

 

Oh and what is Mothman Prophecies, the movie with Richard Gere ?

[4815162342]

#16 (BIG shocker)

16. The Godfather

LYR: 4

Francis Ford Coppola, 1972

 

Nominated for 11 Oscars, won 3

91 points

 

 

 Godfather's fall is actually good. Brings it roughly in line with where I think it should be. 

 

 

#13 (bleh)

13. Back to the Future

LYR: 19

Robert Zemeckis, 1985

 

Nominated for 4 Oscars, won 1

97 points

 

 

Those of us who want to blame ric for Godfather's fall can't blame him alone. If he had ranked Godfather separately it would have been at that rank, which would have given it 6 points so it would only have risen a few spots. So other people also are to blame for it falling out of the Top 5.

I'd rather shoot myself in the foot than call Pulp Fiction the second greatest movie ever.

Mothman destroyed me when I saw it.  It knocked me on my rear.  It's a powerful film and if you haven't seen it, do so.  

[Michael Gary Scott]

I had it in the twenties on my list. Kill Bill Volume 2 not making it is the biggest travesty

[The Futurist]

How many ballots were cast ?

 

Congrats Sims for your great work even if I didn't participate.

[baumer]

There were 39 ballots.

[Jack Nevada]

Good job though, Sims. Glad you're doing these

[XenoZodiac]

 

Poor, poor Totoro

Yeah, it's my favorite animated film.

I guess not enough people saw it.

I prefer Spirited Away and Princess Mononoke (both of which I ranked) and Porco Rosso (which I didn't.)

To each his own. I love Spirited Away. Didn't dig Princess Mononoke much though. I will watch again another time. But I can relate incredibly well to Satsuke of My Neighbor Totoro, especially since my mother was also hospitalized for a long time when I was about Satsuke's age.

[CaptainJackSparrow]

I put Transformers in my top list.

I've seen 63/100, although I've seen almost all of the top 50 lol 

[Sims]

I was really upset that Breakfast Club didn't make it. It almost did, and it was in there until the very end. It may not be one of the 100 objectively "best-made" films out there, but it's a personal favorite and I hope it sneaks in next year.

[Sims]

Airplane! was another comedy that almost got in. Not quite in my personal 100 but I'd have no problems with it being here.

[mahnamahna]

Yeah the list definitely needed a couple more comedies besides Monty Python and the Holy Grail 

 

The Muppet Movie (I was sad it didn't rank anywhere in the top 100   ) 

Anchorman

Airplane!

Blazing Saddles

Young Frankenstein

 

Those should have been in but I'm happy with the list other than that, Sims! 

[The Futurist]

THis top 1000 has only 3 comedies :

 

Big Lebowski

Holy Grail

Dr Strangelove
