The pizza joint setting is too familiar now with movies. If feels plucked right out of time. The laughs are good 30 minutes in, but they can be easy to make. If it gets an A, then it is going to have to rank above License to Kill, Star Trek, and Lethal Weapon. 1 - Halloween 2 - Nightmare on Elm Street 3 - Friday the 13th 4 - The Abyss 5 - Batman 6 - Indiana Jones 7 - License to Kill (8 - Star Trek 5) (9 - Lethal Weapon 2) Do the Right Thing Roger and Me 10 - Akira 11 - Dead Poet's Society 12 - Leviathan 13 - Glory 976-EVIL Phantom of the Opera 14 - Pet Semetary (16 - The Fly 2) 15 - Christmas Vacation 17 - Communion 18 - Casualties of War 19 - Always (20 - Red Scorpion) 21 - Parenthood 22 - Ghostbusters 2 23 - The Punisher Do the Right Thing tanked with a B . It is too contained, like Halloween 78. Redo your lists!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dxmatrixdt Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 right now got Deepstar Six and Born on the Fourth of July on demand for #29 and #30. Field of Dreams will tie with The Punisher at the bottom of the list with a C- will finish these around 4am, then i'll catch consecutive movies to burn more time and bump some movies out of the top 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get to it in 8 hours if Baumer will take the late submission for the ranking boost. is Akira going on them too or what? @baumer what about 976-EVIL directed by Robert Englund? It's IMDB is 1988 for the foreign release thing, and I got it there on the list somewhere for points. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094597/ Earth Girls are Easy w/ Jeff Golblum is 1988 too and i'm skipping it if they are https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0097257/?ref_=nv_sr_1?ref_=nv_sr_1 *same w/ Adventures of Baron Munchausen Edited August 26, 2019 by 2010s Painkiller Race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Managed to watch another film (Crimes and Misdemeanors) and change my list a bit (I actually didn't realise I put 4th of July above Do the Right Thing when I first wrote this list eventhough I love the latter more than the former so I switched those around) within this time: 1. Do the Right Thing 10/10 2. Crimes and Misdemeanors 10/10 3. Born on the 4th of July 10/10 4. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade 9/10 5. The Abyss 9/10 6. Back to the Future Part II 8/10 7.

Avatree Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Wow it's already 27 August. Oops. Forgot to send my list. As long as Indiana Jones wins, I don't mind. (And, odds are in its favour of doing that anyway) If it doesn't win, I will feel ashamed of not sending the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
