Good work, Mitchell.

And thanks for posting all the top 200s! That will be my netflix list...if I ever get netflix.
Pavement Ist Rad
Awesome list. Sort of amazed to see Miller's Crossing go top ten, and so high above Barton Fink. Interesting list. Groundhog Day any lower and I'd have to slay all of you. Fuck that "favorite" vs. "greatest" shit, too. Groundhog Day is GREAT. Great, great, great. As wonderfully vast and multitude-containing as any movie in the top ten.

And yeah, Kids being nowhere to be found is a bit unexpected. I guess. Maybe.

I don't remember Spinal Tarp going number one, crazy. Watched it a few weeks ago. Still pretty funny.
Tracy Jacks
Random thoughts looking through the lists:

- The top three of the 1990s list is as stong as any decade/time period. The rest of the top 10 or 20 -- not so much. OK, I'm being nice. Riddled with crap.
- My favorite extended series from the 1990s list is 21-28. Films of crap interfere with any similar sequence of eight films in the top 20.
- The 1990s list will look a lot different when made 10 years from now. There are a lot of films that will not stand up to the test of time (5, 8, 12 instantly pop into mind). Do we really think Rushmore compares to Annie Hall or Raising Arizona? Office Space to Airplane or Monty Python? It is to laugh.
- The 1970s rule. Ingoring the ridiculous film class/art house pick at #9, numbers 1-11 crush any of the other lists on a position by position basis. I could take those 10 films to a desert island and be happy.
- Based on the top 10s, I rank the lists as follows:
- 1970s
- 1950-69
- 1980s
- 1990s
- pre 1950s

I saw Office Space for the first time in a few years a couple months ago and it wasn't nearly as funny as I remembered it but you gotta be kidding with those other two
typical pickle conflicts
These are my opinions on a post on an internet message board movie poll thread
Undercooked Sausage
in this thread tracy jacks plays the role of a brainless faggot

Just realized #1 & #2 films have two of the best date scenes EVER - the long take through the Copacabana and Vincent's night out with Mia at Jack Rabbit Slims.

Excellent work, Mitch!
Mitchell
I have to agree that considering the strength of the 70's poll down to #20 having those two Ashby pictures in the top 20 is kind of ridiculous. I also don't see Rushmore being considered one of the ten best films of the decade in twenty years either, it's certainly not going to crack Sight and Sound let alone, say the AFI top 100 in 2017.
Tracy Jacks
- First figure is IMBD's decade rank from their top 50 list. "unr" means the film in not in the top 50 for the 1990s
- Second figure is the Metacritic score.
- In bold are films listed in the IMBD top 50 with a Metacritic score above 80.

20 Magnolia -- 39 -- 77
19 Hoop Dreams -- unr -- unr
18 American Beauty -- 10 -- 86
17 L.A. Confidential -- 13 -- 90

16 Ed Wood -- 29 -- 70
15 Reservoir Dogs -- 14 -- 78
14 Shawshank Redemption -- 1 -- 80
13 Fight Club -- 7 -- 66
12 Office Space -- unr -- 68
11 Heat -- 25 -- 76
10 Schindler's List -- 3 -- 93
9 Miller's Crossing -- 49 -- 66
8 Being John Malkovich -- unr -- 90
7 Boogie Nights -- unr -- 85
6 Groundhog Day -- 28 -- 72
5 Rushmore -- unr -- 86
4 The Big Lebowski -- 26 -- 69
3 Fargo -- 21 -- 85
2 Pulp Fiction -- 2 -- 94
1 Goodfellas -- 4 -- 89


I stand by my contention that the top 3 is solid, but the rest of the top 20 will experience a great shakeout if this list is redone a decade from now.

Certainly.

1999 was the tits. I'm glad I was able to see 15's if not the 18's at the cinema.

1999 was, if not the greatest year for film ever, certainly the most revolutionary. I could (and might) write a book about it.

Just realized #1 & #2 films have two of the best date scenes EVER - the long take through the Copacabana and Vincent's night out with Mia at Jack Rabbit Slims.

Excellent work, Mitch!


All of the #1s by decade have a party scene (I think). Interesting to note, for me anyway.

Two 90s movies I love and forgot to vote for:



Man Is Matter
worry wort's breakdown seems to say a great deal about the age of your average somb (who voted in this poll).

great work...a little late to the congratulations game, but thanks mitchell.

2000s is going to be everyone confused over which lotr is which and departed stealing with the split vote.

I'd like to pretend that Eternal Sunshine will win.

I'd like to pretend that Confessions of a Dangerous Mind will get a decent placing, but I don't think anyone likes that film as much as I do.

Royal Tenebaums, Kill Bills LOTRs, Eternal Sunshine, Sin City and Children of Men would all have good showings.
Asher Ford
Eternal Sunshine will almost definitely be top 3 for me.

From what I remember Mousehunt was pretty great. And I cannot bring myself to hate any Jurassic Park. Otherwise, I don't care about any of that list.
