I am so stupid. I am going to reveal my top 100 favorite movies of all time. Be warned though, I may not have seen a lot of movies that you might love. However, I am as big of a movie critic as I am a video game critic. Only one rule to this: They have to be theatrical releases, and I'm going to reveal 10 movies each day. Without further words, here they are. If this list doesn't compell you enough, I will shortly release my top 100 favorite video games. 100. Who Framed Roger Rabbit 99. The Bourne Identity 98. The Nightmare Before Christmas 97. King Kong (1930's) 96. The Bourne Supremacy 95. Cars 94. Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory 93. Spanglish 92. Apollo 13 91. The Matrix Reloaded

I don't see the connection. (Also, "reveal"? Is it a big secret or something?) At least personal top movie lists are not like best guitarists lists, which in all cases consist of Jimi Hendrix at place #1 and then a completely random list of other guitar players with no logic or consistency whatsoever from person to person. (The major difference is that only old-school movie aficionados put always Citizen Kane at #1 and Godfather somewhere on the top-5, but younger people have a more varied (read: random) choice for #1, usually some newer movie.)

I am so smart. I am going to list four reasons why the OP is a parody on itself. Be warned, I don't care about the list. But I'm as much of a sucker for hilarious threads are I am for other hilarious threads. 1. It starts off with the phrase, "I am so stupid", conveniently explaining why you should not take the rest of the post seriously, or at all read it. 2. The author is going to reveal something that isn't a mystery nor is something anybody has looked for. 3. The author claims he is "as big of a movie critic as he is a video game critic", even though it has never been established how big that is. 4. The author attempts to compel the audience, but never establishes what is it the audience needs to be compelled with, and threatens to continue with even more things nobody is caring about. Please carry on.

And which clearly show a lack of historical knowledge, since many Baroque and Classical guitarists were much better than Mr. Hendrix.

Warp is absolutely right on one thing. Since I am 19-years old, I have seen more newer movies than old movies, but mind you that I've still seen a bunch of old movies ...except Citizen Kane. There, I said it!

You are clearly not being serious. That's quite evident because of the lack of Troll 2, the best movie ever made.

If I don't see "Debbie Does Dallas" in the top 20, your list is by definition incorrect.

I completely agree.
You guys are both completely off the fucking bandwagon. Best movie ever made is, all hands down, Robo Vampire. That being said, Troll 2 has some epic, unmatched moments that always seem to slip past the scope of the "real" movie critics. It's so easy to just be an ass and judge Troll 2 by its cover, when in reality it should be considered to be a gold nugget covered in rotten milk.

Troll 2 is the most utterly confusing movie I've ever seen. It's not just epically bad, it looks like the entire crew has been drugged, because clearly nobody there even understands what they're doing.

As opposed to the movie where Robocop fights vampires only to get blown up to atoms only to return later? I gotta rank Demons 2 to these gems as well, where one of the actor who died in the first movie returned in the second one just for shits and giggles. And once again died. But yes, I agree that Troll 2 is an ongoing trainwreck.

Apparently the director, who also wrote the script, was not fluent in English, and consequently all the dialogue was completely broken English. The cast, most of which consisted of native speakers, offered to deliver the lines in proper English, but seemingly the director insisted that they be delivered as written.

Maybe the problem is that you need to watch Troll 1 first to understand the backstory?
