The Greatest Movie Ever Prelims: Pool C

[Raven]

Yeah, I've never seen it.  Mostly because people who I find to be extremely knobbish love it.

I just want to say that I'm 100% positive I love this movie for reasons different from Fred Durst and his retard followers.

If we're going to look at this in a Leonard Maltin Two and a Half Stars kind of way, this poll indicates that Generations is just as good a film as Inherit the Wind.

I like Who Framed Roger Rabbit?  too.

Fight Club is a brilliant movie on it's own, but easily, EASILY misinterpreted. It is a modern classic, no joke, and I voted for it proudly.

Still love Roger Rabbit, and anyone who disagrees probably doesn't find cartoon boobs attractive.

Again, trying to balance love, with truth, with elevating deserving genre works:

Pulp Fiction
Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure (smarter than given credit for, unendingly hilarious, high concept insanity)
Coffy (OH MY GOD PAM GRIER)
Predator
Fight Club
Army of Darkness
A Night at the Opera (one of the funniest damn movies ever made)
Metropolis (the original movie is just awesome beyond belief, but the anime is surprisingly good as well- either one would get my vote)
Hard Boiled (gun boner)

I'm aware of this, but I still think it's kind of stupid anyway. It's obviously the views of an author filtered through a ridiculous plot and then made into an over stylized movie. Quirky characters allow an author to say things that only an asshole would say without being criticized. And then just for the hell of it they can play Devil's advocate with the other characters, which represent their own self loathing. Thankfully, now we have blogs and anonymous forums instead of books.

And I voted for A Night At The Opera and Duck Soup and the only older movie I'm aware of on the list is Nosferatu, which I saw once. I prefer Shadow of the Vampire.

I know this is not a popular thing to say but I really disliked Pulp Fiction.  A lot of it is because the family sitting behind me when I saw it on opening night brought their extremely young children and the violence in the movie scared the crap out of them and the kids' parents kept yelling at them to shut-up.  I felt like a contributor to these kids nightmare fuel.  So now every time the movie is on I just feel creepy inside.

I'm sure it probably is a lovely flick but I just can't help associating it to those kids.

Nah it's the work of the luckiest hack this side of Uwe Boll, you're right to dislike the crappy waste of celluloid.
