Re: The IMDB top 25 - how many have you seen?

I think the only ones I haven’t seen are the last two and LOTR movies.

Not shocked that people haven’t seen City of God, I’d highly recommend it.

Own about half.
 
Re: The IMDB top 25 - how many have you seen?

This is some hardcore lunacy. Bull****? Lol. That’s just ignorant.

I cannot, for the life of me, get into that genre. Also see: GOT tv series. *shrug*

19 is an all-time classic. Kurosawa is a hell of a director.
 
Re: The IMDB top 25 - how many have you seen?

I probably should watch them, I don’t have any great reason for not watching them other than length and the fantasy elements of it being somewhat of a deterrent. I also recognize that’s not the greatest reason to not watch something haha.

And yeah Seven Samurai is awesome, though it’s not shocking that subtitled foreign films are the most commonly not seen among people here.
 
Re: The IMDB top 25 - how many have you seen?

There are 4 that I haven't seen.

LOTR >>>> Star Wars

Better source material and better movies.
 
Re: The IMDB top 25 - how many have you seen?

Funny thing is that The Hobbit <<<<< The Prequels

Hard to imagine anyone making a worse trilogy than I-III, but Pete Jackson managed to do it.
 
Re: The IMDB top 25 - how many have you seen?

It’s hard to imagine anything being worse than the prequels, other than the Star Wars Christmas special that George Lucas denies exists.
 
Re: The IMDB top 25 - how many have you seen?

The only "fantasy/miedeviel" genre thing I ever sorta liked was "Eyes Of The Dragon" by Stephen King, and I'm guessing if I re-read it, I'd probably not like it anymore.

Pretty sure I have the soundtrack on vinyl. Got it at a garage sale. Haven't ever listened to it.

Jon Bongiovi is one of the vocalists. :D

Crouching Tiger?

Hero?
 
Re: The IMDB top 25 - how many have you seen?

In the Crouching era, House Of The Flying Daggers was also quite good.

Skip ahead to the three minute mark where Chewie’s Dad uses the “mind evaporator” and seemingly gets aroused by the woman he sees in a really awkward scene.

Let’s just say I didn’t watch the entire movie after that :D

Re: The IMDB top 25 - how many have you seen?

#26 (and falling fast) is The Usual Suspects. So sad to see a classic movie taking a hit because of the actions of one of its stars.

No, #26 is not Union.
