When do you think the countdown will begin?

Probably on like December 3rd or something.

Like the Spielberg list a while back, a lot of his good/lesser efforts kind of just blend together with no real preference for one over the other (which speaks to the strength of their filmographies overall) so just gonna do a top 10.

 

1. The Wolf of Wall Street

2. Goodfellas

3. The Departed

4. Taxi Driver

5. Raging Bull

6. Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore

7. The Age of Innocence

8. Hugo

9. The Irishman

10. The Last Temptation of Christ

Last call ladies and gentlemen. I'm okay with one or two stragglers, but if you guys want to participate, get this to me BY TONIGHT @ 11:59 PM All you need is a minimum of 10, so don't worry if you didn't catch too many movies. Again, you still have a good shot at changing the final tallies exponentially, so make. Your. Vote. Count!

[baumer]

Looking forward to this.  Really curious to see where WoWS ends up.

[Jamiem]

Quickly put together a top 10, although Scorsese isn’t one of my favourites. There is  3 films of his I do really love and 2 of them are from within the last 10 years (not The Irishman) so will be cool to see how they do.

[MOVIEGUY]

Here's my list. I'll be honest, I watched 20 minutes of The Age of Innocence tonight and really wasn't feeling it. Some other time.

 

1. Goodfellas

2. The Wolf of Wall Street

3. The Irishman

4. The Departed

5. Taxi Driver

6. Raging Bull

7. The King of Comedy

8. Mean Streets

9. Hugo

10.  Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore

11. Cape Fear

12. Shutter Island

13. Gangs of New York

14. Casino

15. Italianamerican

16. The Last Temptation of Christ

17. Bringing Out the Dead

If people have time, I recommend checking out The Hustler (amazing film) before seeing The Color of Money. CoM is standalone but having that first film does enhance that one. 

 

Edit: Oh submissions ended already nvm...I still recommend it though!

I rewatched COM recently after listening to the podcast "The Rewatchables" on the Ringer. Still a great movie. Paul Newman is such a star and MEM almost self combusts she is so hot in this movie.

Just letting some folks know that I do accept stragglers and late submissions, though when I officially start the countdown, that's it. So if you realized you missed the deadline, you still have a chance if you're really, really fast.

[Eric is Anxious]

Just as a bit of a heads up for people, I'm not entirely sure I'll be able to start the countdown today. Work has been an absolute pain this week, so I haven't been able to get as much progress on my write-ups than I intended to, I'm hoping to catch C'mon C'mon later today, and tracking for Spider-Man just takes up an obscene amount of time. I'll see if I can get something out today, but I might have to push things tomorrow.
