Haters gonna hate

Schindler's List should be in the top 5. Welcome to the ADHD generation everybody.

I put TDKR at number 89. I thought it might make the list. However, once TA was number 31, I thought that was going to be the end of TDKR.

While I do believe Avengers is universally liked/loved, those who love TDKR, really really seem to love the hell out of it. And yes, Nolan's got a pretty big fanbase, myself included. But even I have to admit that TDKR is probably Nolan's worst directed film. It lacks some of the tight craftsmanship of his other films. Luckily he had two films' worth of buildup to back on to bring it to a strong finish. Didn't love Avengers either though. Liked it, had a good time. I'm the only one in my social circle to not be head over heels seemingly. Edited August 29, 2012 by MrPink

[acsc1312]

Well, at least I won't be castrating anybody

[Kvikk Lunsj]

Avengers #31....CRACK.

agreed

[Walt Disney]

LOL @ Avengers fans whining

I'm not whining. I'm surprised, but no complaints. People vote for what they like. I just expected the movie that performed better at the BO to have gotten higher votes. Hopefully, this ends any complaints about Iron Man making the list tho.

I think there would be more anger if something like Thor or Captain America made the list. At least Iron man had some redeemable qualities.

No, then Shrek 2/Pirates 2 would be on the list and Avatar would be a lot higher.

I think it is sad modern films are beating classic cause they are new. I find it ironic people online MTV awards but those awards are for this generation cause all they like are blockbuster.

Too bad we do not have more twilight fans on this site.

Well the same could be said for people who hold old films to high regard only because they are viewed as "classics".

#17 was a pleasant surprise for me.

[Walt Disney]

No, then Shrek 2/Pirates 2 would be on the list and Avatar would be a lot higher.

This is a little different though because I'm talking about 2 movies that came out in the same year (this year to be exact). And 1 became an event movie and the other one really hasn't.

No worse than people who only put old films and ignore anything from the last decade.

I just find sad that some list just have new films. In 5 years people's list will be so different a new top 10. I fine with someone putting THG, Twilight, Avengers, TDKR in the top 10 but when someone top 100 films are just modern films from the last 10 years.

1 Billion world wide is not an event movie? News to me.

[Walt Disney]

Too bad we do not have more twilight fans on this site.

This list is interesting because I think it's almost all guys that voted. So we haven't seen a lot of female movies like Pretty Woman or Dirty Dancing or Twilight. That's why The Hunger Games surprised me a little bit. This list is a guy list.

So? The Phantom Menace was a movie event, so was Transformers 2. Movie event =/= quality.
