100? Christ, I don't want to see a list of 100 movies from anyone...

Fist of Doom

Then why did you bother clicking on the thread?

PopcornTreeCt

Good list, hardercore.

I certainly agree with #1. Including Almost Famous and United 93 in your top 10 is nice too.

I don't know why people on forums get it right more than academys or magazines.

hardercore

They're in limbo, shortly to be replaced with Groucho-inspired sarcastic remarks.

No seriously, I was getting way too much shit for them to continue taking the time to write em.

Fist of Doom

I enjoyed the mini-reviews. I was going to post some comments once you finished posting the whole list. Just ignore the smartass comments.

surprised to see Control mentioned a few times, as I thought Grant Gee's documentary was superior, and Control was a little bland (though still a fine film).

One Hour Photo (wanted to see more from Romanek, and Williams honestly)

also, the decade was dominated with my love for The Sopranos, Lost, Dexter, and Nip/Tuck

not 100, and not in order.

jfoobar

So is this some sort of psychological cleansing exercise recommended by your therapists for you guys? God, it would take me all day to build an even somewhat accurate list of my "top 100" movies ever, let alone from a decade.

AnonomusBob15

it was exhausting and probably the hardest thing i've ever done. Maybe you should sit this one out my friend....

jfoobar

I will do so. Just skimming this thread makes me want to take a nap.

Hokeyboy

Apparently, Internet peepulz are forced at gunpoint to read and absorb exhausting threads in which they have no interest. I don't even know why we're bothering with Afghanistan while such a human crisis unfolds back home.
