[Jake Gittes]

Fuck IB.

Too bad, I guess we can't agree on everything

[Michael Gary Scott]

IB was great had it at 71

[CJohn]

Fuck IB.

[Plain Old Tele]

IB has three great scenes and the rest is utter shit... which makes it mediocre.

I'm sorry but your wrong

[CaptainJackSparrow]

Who else put Planet of the Apes in their top? I did!

[Plain Old Tele]

I'm sorry but your wrong

 

Not at all. Parts of it are embarrassingly bad (ironically enough, the scenes featuring the IBs themselves).

IB is QT's 2nd best movie. 

[Punishment]

I haven't seen IB yet, but I don't like any of the other Quentin Tarantino movies (that I have seen), so I doubt I would like it.

#67 (another big fall...)

67. Saving Private Ryan

LYR: 28

Steven Spielberg, 1998

 

Nominated for 11 Oscars, won 5

44 points

 

"This time the mission is the man."

Synopsis: Following the Normandy Landings, a group of U.S. soldiers go behind enemy lines to retrieve a paratrooper whose brothers have been killed in action.

 

Trivia: Edward Norton was offered the role of Private Ryan, but turned it down.

 

#66 (a fairly big jump)

66. Gladiator

LYR: 59

Ridley Scott, 2000

 

Nominated for 12 Oscars, won 5

45 points

 

"Are you not entertained?"

 

Synopsis: When a Roman general is betrayed and his family murdered by an emperor's corrupt son, he comes to Rome as a gladiator to seek revenge.

 

Trivia: Jennifer Lopez auditioned for the role of Lucilla.

 

#65

65. L,A. Confidential

LYR: 85

Curtis Hanson, 1997

 

Nominated for 9 Oscars, won 2

45 points

 

"Come to Los Angeles! The sun shines bright, the beaches are wide and inviting, and the orange groves stretch as far as the eye can see. There are jobs aplenty, and land is cheap. Every working man can have his own house, and inside every house, a happy, all-American family. You can have all this, and who knows... you could even be discovered, become a movie star... or at least see one. Life is good in Los Angeles... it's paradise on Earth." Ha ha ha ha. That's what they tell you, anyway."

Synopsis: As corruption grows in 1950s LA, three policemen - the straight-laced, the brutal, and the sleazy - investigate a series of murders with their own brand of justice.

 

Trivia: To pitch the movie to backers (and, later, to explain his aesthetic ideas about it to various cast and crew members), director Curtis Hanson put together a group of 18 period images illustrating different aspects of what he hoped to convey with the movie.

 

 

#64 (riczhang's meltdown continues)

64. Citizen Kane

LYR: 53

Orson Welles, 1941

 

Nominated for 9 Oscars, won 1

45 points

 

"Rosebud."

 

Synopsis: Following the death of a publishing tycoon, news reporters scramble to discover the meaning of his final utterance.

 

Trivia: William Randolph Hearst was so angered by the film that he accused Orson Welles of being a Communist in order to keep the film from being released.

[Michael Gary Scott]

QT is my fav director so I obviously love IB. Waltz is great and Shoshana is a great character.

[AdamKendall]

for LA Confidential.

[CJohn]

DAT Saving Private Ryan's drop...

[Michael Gary Scott]

None made my list

[CJohn]

So... do all these drops mean that movies from the bottom of last year's top 100 will be in the first few positions? 

[Fanboy]

Thank God I did not submit a top 100 because I would have forgotten L.A. Confidential.   Suck on it Citizen Kane and SPR.

I just do not like his directing style at all; his movies seem too choppy to me.

[CJohn]

The only movies I like from QT are IB and DU. Both are in my top 100.
