And though I quote the number as 93, some I honestly can't remember a thing about, but I did watch them.<BR/><BR/>I don't feel the least bit bad or dumb for not seeing what the general idiotic public think are the "best" 250 films of all time. In fact I don't feel bad for not seeing most films on any "best of list," as it is always a matter of someone else's opinion.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12386248680892197260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8093577975402549581.post-10126797774374922412008-03-29T22:07:00.000-05:002008-03-29T22:07:00.000-05:00Don't worry about the films you haven't seen... ju...Don't worry about the films you haven't seen... just add them to your list! Not all of them suit everyone but it's a great place to start when looking for overall acclaimed films.<BR/><BR/>I would say that I'd recommend The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. I had no idea that I would enjoy this film at all and now it's on of my faves of all time.

As I've discussed previously, I'm no giant fan of "the classics," but it's laughable that American Gangster and In Bruges are on this list. Even though we all know that they'll be gone from it in six months, the fact that they're on it in the first place reeks.Fletchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299302086449086987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8093577975402549581.post-47471528648599367912008-03-28T01:31:00.000-05:002008-03-28T01:31:00.000-05:00The nice thing about movies is how absolutely subj...The nice thing about movies is how absolutely subjective lists like these are and I can tell you that if I sat down and locked myself in a room for days on end scouring every corner of my brain for 250 movies that were in my opinion, the best of all time, a sizable chunk of these would most definitely have not made the list.<BR/><BR/>I think a lot of times people go into movies from lists like these expecting too much or feeling badly if they don't like said movie, which always makes me feel bad.

How some of these recent movies even make the top 500 is beyond me, and it's only made worse when they're ranked in order. I've seen over 150, but that's an inflated number from where this list was about 10 years ago. There used to be a bunch of old classics on there that I'd never heard of.

Nice to see the additions from 2007! I've seen 155. If it makes you feel better, Lawrence of Arabia put me to sleep too. Took me a week to see it, and I bitch about it to this day. If you like adventure, Raiders of the Lost Ark is one of the best, pure adventure films, check it out before the new Indiana Jones comes to screens this spring.

Everyone should see that film as soon as possible, everything else could wait! I bet you have seen tons of great films that are not on this list...am I right?<BR/><BR/>I cannot ridicule you; I have much catching up to do myself, and am glad I have someone like you to catch up with.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
