Bluemoon's Official Top 100 Films

[Boo or Boo-urns]

very surprised the following didn’t make top 100

Whiplash

I had it my top 10.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

I had 8 in so not too bad.
Was I the only vote for Carry on Camping?

 

[dronefromsector7G]

Had 14 but if the cockney twat had let me send a new list it would’ve been 16. I guess I’m just a sheep eh Bimbobob? Might have to start watching fancy French films about things like a cellist and her painful relationship with her sister

The Godfather is a worthy winner, its just a great film with a great cast, a great story, some great characters and is loaded with some great and memorable scenes. I had it at number two and did not have its sequels as I did not want to over represent the "gangster genre" in my 20. I am sure 99% on here have seen it so any kind of review is a waste of time.

Bluehammer has again surpassed himself with this thread and deserves all credit/kudos that comes his way...... I doff my cap sir.

I managed 13 from my list so overall am pleased, although some of them pick themselves really, there is an eclectic mix in the 100 although maybe a lack of romcom or family dramas which has been noted by some already.

Would you take the hundred as the only films you could ever watch again? there are plenty of brilliant films in there, but loads that are not that you would miss too I fear. That just highlights how films can be connected to moods or phases in our lives, and association to those films can be different for different people.

Biggest surprise for getting in off my list was Capricorn One, I love that film but thought n one else did.........biggest "upset" was The Exorcist not getting in as I thought it was top 40 at least.

My failures list and position in my list:-

19)Bridge over the River Kwai
16) Dances With Wolves
10) American Werewolf in London
9) Spartacus
8) The Exorcist
7) Last of the Mohicans
4) Get Carter (Michael Caine)

Again, thanks to Bluehammer and all who took part in making this one of the best threads on here recently.

There's a notable absence of older classics in the list - All Quiet on the Western Front and Citizen Kane for example and I agree with @Mad Eyed Screamer about A Taste of Honey.

Good thread though, well done @BlueHammer85.

I had Get Carter too.

 

[JRockBlues]

I only had 3 that didn't make it from my selections. 2 of which were expected as they're anime (Jin-Roh & Nausicaa). The other one missing was Almost Famous.

More great work from @BlueHammer85 so thanks once again for doing this. Been fun to follow along.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

11 of my selections made the top 100.

A big well done to BlueHammer85 for all his hard work.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

None of my picks made the top 100. I didn't vote, but I'm still outraged.

 

[City Hobgoblin]

Did anyone else have this Brit classic ....
Over 50 years old but never seemed so relevant.
Original trailer has a clunkingly inappropiate American voice-over but never mind ....
