65. Four Rooms
Are you kidding me?? Or just the parts made by RR and QT? (Even if QT’s part was worthless IMO).
If I could decide each part was a separate movie, I’d rank the 2 other parts in the 50 worst movies I’ve seen, especially the one with Madonna.
I have atrocious memories about that movie haha
I think Kenneth just listed all the movies hes ever seen.
[quote=“Mr.Pink”]I think Kenneth just listed all the movies hes ever seen.[/quote]
Haha, nope. I listed my 102 favorite movies from the thousands and thousands of movies I have seen in my life.
I like Four Rooms, all the rooms actually. RR’s room is my fav. I like the concept of the movie, and it’s tone, and everything. highly entertaining imo.

Your list is very mediocre.
In what way? I think it’s a good mixture of old and new, A-movies and B-movies, different genres, and countries. Nice variety.
and btw, remember it’s not a “greatest films I have ever seen” list, it’s a “my favorite movies of all time” list.

It seems like your not into critically aclaimed movies but into mediocre movies like Rambo and Commando. And seriously Rocky 4? Its the worst of the series.

Rambo and Commando are two highly entertaining action movies. Mediocre maybe from a filmmaking perspective, but again: this is a FAVORITE list. Yeah, many people say part 4 is the worst Rocky, but it’s the one I enjoy most.
And there are quite a few critically acclaimed movies in there. Like the Frank Capra ones for example.
[quote=“G”]All American films too?[/quote]
Look again. Even if they were all-American, what’s wrong with that?
[quote=“Col. Crazy Kenneth”]Nice to see Watchmen on your list, Ify.
[/quote]
When I first saw it at the cinema, I wasn’t impressed at all. A while later, I couldn’t stop thinking about some of the scenes in it (like the opening credit sequence and the Comedian’s funeral), so I decided to get the Director’s Cut on Blu Ray. The last week, I’ve been alternating between Zack Snyder’s and Dave Gibbons’ commentary tracks. The film is fucking awesome!
[quote=“Ify”][quote=“G”]All American films too?[/quote]

Well first didn’t know it was “favs” and not “best” (whatever that difference means). Second, the fact that you think not one non-American film is better than Fight Club or Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. But again, someone said this is a favs list and not what you think is the best, so whatever, try to forget what I said then.
Looked at your list again, I guess I am looking at the Leone films at being foreign to America?

Yeah, The Proposition as well. You pretty much answered your own questions there.
I don’t really think of films according to country.
