Re: The Greatest Films of the New Millennium: 83 Films + Counting

Re: The Greatest Films of the New Millennium: 83 Films + Counting

Well thanks takingchase you just confirmed that I'm right. Yes - just because a movie is bad doesn't mean it has no emotional impact or soul or value as a piece of art. For instance I love watching...

Re: The Greatest Films of the New Millennium: 83 Films + Counting

Here's the issue: you treat film ratings as subjective, but I treat them as objective. Know why? BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SUBJECTIVELY RATE *ANYTHING*. There are only two things that one can say about any...

Re: The Greatest Films of the New Millennium: 83 Films + Counting

Well I can tell you haven't even watched a single movie on my list and considered why I might give it a 5. You're just too scared to admit that maybe I might actually be right. If you can't see that...

Re: Your top movie past 10 years?

Kill Bill is a great series but there are too many flaws that I notice with it. The dialogue shifts between good and bad with like every other line which bothers me a bit. I still love it but I can't...

Re: The Greatest Films of the New Millennium: 83 Films + Counting

Re: The Greatest Films of the New Millennium: 83 Films + Counting

Haven't seen Them! or Rio Bravo but I would give all of those other movies a 5.0/5.0. If you go to my 2000s list there's a link to my "best films that I've ever seen" list which contains a lot of old...
