Good Will Hunting over TWBB, Gravity, Singing in the Rain? That's why I didn't take part in this; I knew the disappointment would be too big for me to handle. It's all on you guys.

 

I'm glad you didn't. You'd probably put a bunch of Nolan movies in your top 10.

I mean that wouldn't have happened if you would've submitted a list

Maybe. But there's still 90 movies to go so I stand by what I said.

They aren't really going for the same things though. LLL's attitude towards Hollywood is actually pretty close in spirit to ASIB I think but in terms of singing and dancing it's more Jacques Demy than classic Hollywood. 

La La Land's music felt like warmed over Remy to me and the singing and dancing by the leads is sub par.  In say Girls From Rochefort  Jacques Demy had top quality dancers - at least among the male leads with much better choreography (not the greatest but better) and La La Land lacked the wit and light touch of that film.  The Woman Cut Into Pieces dinner scene is low key charming and subversively hilarious.

Gotta love that you post this and yet you had the fucking nerve to give me shit for loving some John Carpenter movies a little less than you

[Ethan Hunt]

Baby Driver does rule. Was in my top 50

[Avatree]

I love musicals. They're pretty much the only films that I can rewatch to no limit. I watch South Park movie several times a month. It's like comfort food. Rock of Ages, and the Pick of Destiny, I just have them on in the background while I do stuff on a Sunday afternoon.

Some people need to find Joy in their life....

I agree, Joy is a very good movie that could have made the list over Good Will Hunting, but alas.

Best version of The Thing btw

a good musical is cinema working at the height its powers and a bad musical is the most unbearable kind of film to sit through.

I agree Good Will Hunting is much too low

[baumer]

Besides Daniel Day-Lewis and his awesomely Hammy get iconic performance in There Will Be Blood, and that one milkshake line, I can't find one single redeeming thing about There Will Be Blood.

who wants to bet on what the highest placing movie that wasn't released the last time we did this list will be. My money would be on Get Out but I could certainly see it being La La Land too

I agree on Get Out. I actually don’t see La La Land making the list. 

[Daxtreme]

Get Out gets my vote for that

[That One Girl]

Dunkirk will place higher than Get Out

[Empire]

Eh. Nolan's stock dropped from the 2014list to the 2016 list. Think it'll drop again this time around
