4815162342 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 ZD30 is better than BB, which is the best Nolan Batman. IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 ZD30 is really overrated and, imo, just rather mediocre. It's not terrible but it does nothing particularly impressive. I don't not recommend it, but I don't recommend it either. BB and TDKR being too low worries me Too low? Again, I re-iterate: although I can't tell you which movies these all beat, since that would spoil the fun - please just trust me that all 100 beat some astonishingly popular movies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatree Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 #74 29.97% Director: Sofia Coppola Written by: Sofia Coppola The closest we will get to having a Francis Ford Coppola film on the list, Lost in Translation places at #74. RT Consensus: "Effectively balancing humor and subtle pathos, Sofia Coppola crafts a moving, melancholy story that serves as a showcase for both Bill Murray and Scarlett Johansson." 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 #73 30.53% Director: Andrew Dominik Written by: Andrew Dominik Another Brad Pitt film on our list takes the form of Andrew Dominik's adaptation of The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. Not only does it have the rank of #73, it also boasts the achievement of longest title on the list... RT Consensus: "On the strength of its two lead performances, Assassination is an expertly crafted period piece, and an insightful look at one of the enduring figures of American lore. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalo Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) Two movies I really want to see. three actually need to see all the "Before" movies. Edited April 1, 2015 by Kalo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 #72 30.57% Director: Gore Verbinski Written by: Ted Elliott, Terry Rossio A surprise, unexpected blockbuster that spawned a massive franchise - the original Pirates movie comes in at #72. RT Consensus: "May leave you exhausted like the theme park ride that inspired it; however, you'll have a good time when it's over." 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 I love the Rotten Tomatoes summary - "you'll have a good time when it's over". Nothing could be more accurate... Am I the only person on the forum who absolutely despises the Pirates movies? I really can't stand them. Almost as bad as Transformers imo. This film is easily my most loathed of the 100.

The Stingray Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Only #73? Ranked behind POTC? Yeah, that's just laughable. Pirates is overrated, and Jesse James is god tier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted April 2, 2015 Share Posted April 2, 2015 Jesse James was too long and boring as fuck where as the first POTC was about as entertaining as they come. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted April 2, 2015 Author Share Posted April 2, 2015 #71 31.32% Director: Abdellatif Kechiche Written by: Abdellatif Kechiche, Ghalia Lacroix Despite being considered by many critics the very best film of the year, it didn't even get a Best Foreign Language nomination at the Oscars. Nevertheless, Blue is the Warmest Color gets its due treatment here, at the only awards ceremony that matters. RT Consensus: "Raw, honest, powerfully acted, and deliciously intense, it offers some of modern cinema's most elegantly composed, emotionally absorbing drama." 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted April 2, 2015 Author Share Posted April 2, 2015 Jesse James was too long and boring as fuck where as the first POTC was about as entertaining as they come. I couldn't fail to disagree with you less. PotC is utterly boring, the complete opposite of what is entertaining to me although I will say that it's slightly less terrible and slightly less boring than its sequels.
