100? :shock:

Imho, far too big. I bet you'd get more responses w/top 10 or top 25.

how about we meet in the middle and make it a top 50?


I will go first I guess and see who follows. Hmm if it is a top list it should be ranked right so here goes from um I guess worst to best.

I have a hard enough time w/small video game lists as it is, and thats my main hobby. My top 25 3DO games is stuck at 24 (don't even ask me to put them in order) and I've been trying to organize a top 10 point n' click graphic adventure list too.

I can't do a top 50 movies list ... sorry.

how about a random list of as many movies as you can think of off the top of your head is that doable?

Maybe ...

Off your list, the Star Wars movies, Gremlins, Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade, and Batman are all great choices.

yeah but the point of the thread was to get movie ideas hopefully movies I have never seen or movies I forgot about. I finally broke 500 movies today and now I look at my puny collection and think damn there is not 500 movies there and I think I need more.

Better hold off ... he is a newbie, and probably doesn't understand your slightly insane irish pub owner mentality.

The Holy Mountain HAHAHAHAHA! A friend gave this to me on DVD. When it got to the point where they were making gold I was like, "Why the hell did he think this was my kind of movie?" but by the end I thought it was kinda good.
