103 Movies You Have To See or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Poll

[Tripe]

Wait can I nominate again?

[Relaxing Dragon]

Not just yet, since you put The Gold Rush up for consideration for this round.

[Tripe]

Ok cool, wasn't sure where we were in the nomination/poll rotation.

[Asbestos Bill]

Blues Brothers

[Relaxing Dragon]

I don't think I've put up anything this round, and since I'm about to leave work and don't have time to really type out a reasoning/defense:

John Carpenter's The Thing. I'll wear you lot down on this one yet, just you wait and see.

[LucasM]

The Bride of Frankenstein

Besides being possibly the best Universal horror film, this was the first horror film to use dark humor to augment a serious storyline.

[Kete]

New poll is up.  Start new nominations.

I'll include
John Carpenter's The Thing
and
The Bride Of Frankenstein

[D.B. Barnes]

The Shining

[ScottotD]

This is very true. That movie's about as close as anyone has ever come to actually filming a fever dream.

I was just reminded of this with news of Rian Johnson's new movie coming out (even though Rian Johnson's Brick isn't getting any love)

Primer

I guess I'll make a case for Brick....

It is a "Neo-Noir" story set in high school.  Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays a hardboiled detective trying to solve a crime and uncovers the seedy underbelly of his high school.  This movie is about as perfect as a movie can get.  Just check out the trailer:

The meeting with the vice-principal is classic!

[ScottotD]

Aw man, I want to vote for every movie so far

[MontyServo]

I would like to nominate In Bruges for the next poll.

[wurwolf]

Is everyone so far using all three of their votes in each poll? I have to confess that I'm not -- this time around I only voted for The Graduate. What is everyone else doing?
