  • What are your top 20 movies?

    This thread asks the question: WHAT ARE YOUR TOP 20 MOVIES THAT YOU CAN WATCH NO MATTER WHAT AND QUALITY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANYTHING JUST 20 MOVIES THAT YOU CAN PUT IN AND ALWAYS BE ENTERTAINED?


    Also, for me this encapsulates what Podcaust/BDR is about for me.

    In no order...
    1. Dawn of the Dead (70's/2k's)
    2. Hackers
    3. Raiders of the Lost Ark
    4. The Empire Strikes Back
    5. Sin City - MARV SEQUENCE ONLY
    6. American Movie
    7. The Thing
    8. Night of the Living Dead (60s/90s)
    9. The Devil's Rejects
    10. A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors
    11. WarGames
    12. First Blood
    13. The Fifth Element
    14. Ghostbusters
    15. Friday the 13th Part IV
    16. The Lawnmower Man
    17. The Monster Squad
    18. Shaun of the Dead
    19. Close Encounters of the Third Kind
    20. Reservoir Dogs


    I have a feeling this will be edited at some point (as tomorrow I'll kick my own ass for forgetting some movie I LOVE AND OMG IT'S THE GREATEST), but off the top of my head if I had to choose only 20 movies to watch over and over these are the ones.

    What are yours?

      It's tough. I tried not to think too hard, but I just know that tonight I'll wake up in the middle of the night and go "HOW DID I FORGET ABOUT THAT ONE?!"

        Good lord, 20?!?! I struggle with my top 5, let alone thinking about 10. But 20! That's take a little bit of time.

                        I'm loving this so far. Since we've been on BDR so long these lists are like perfect representations of who you fuckers are to me. PERFECT.

                          I had that on my list but replaced it with The Devil's Rejects because I already had like 4 zombie flicks.

                            I'm mad at myself for not putting on True Romance or Jackie Brown but I still think I enjoy Dogs a bit more for an entertaining flick.
