[bed005]

I love 28 Days Later, but IMDb only lists it as a horror movie.

[4815162342]

I love 28 Days Later, but IMDb only lists it as a horror movie.

 

IMDB lists 28 Weeks Later as sci-fi though. Since there's really no sci-fi leap between the two, I'm gonna push for an exception to the IMDB rule here.

[The Stingray]

I'm sorry Numbers, but I think it's a bit too late for exceptions. Most people have already submitted their lists.

 

Please don't go all lawyer on me.

Unbreakable (superhero film? if you're counting it, put it at number 10 and everything moves down)

[lab276]

If we were to extend back to 1997, would Princess Mononoke count?

[The Stingray]

Interflop

 

Good one.

 

Unbreakable (superhero film? if you're counting it, put it at number 10 and everything moves down)

 

Yeah, Unbreakable is in.

 

If we were to extend back to 1997, would Princess Mononoke count?

 

Well no, 'cause it ain't listed as sci-fi.

Nope, but I changed it since the good Numbers here reminded me that The Adjustment Bureau exists

[4815162342]

I'm sorry Numbers, but I think it's a bit too late for exceptions. Most people have already submitted their lists.

 

Please don't go all lawyer on me.

 

I adjusted my list. Took 28 Days Later out, moved everything up one spot, and added in a new #25.
