On all the lists of best 100, I've usually seen 30-40. This one I'm at 66. Definitely a different type of list. -- nm - jnine Dec 21, 11:22
I’ve seen 75, it’s a pretty typical list. The only surprise in the top 50 is the Texas Chainsaw Massacre -- nm - Roger More Dec 21, 10:37
I didn't keep count, but felt it was an amusing list that delivered on its promise. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 21, 10:31 1
- (Its promise being to deliver something worth arguing over.) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 21, 10:46
I’m at 62. -- nm - MDH Dec 21, 10:25
It’s really a “Film Student top 100”—some of those movies aren’t good/have no rewatchability unless you’re soaking in a certain film aspect -- nm - Flavorize Dec 21, 10:15 43
- I agree with the first part, but best /= most entertaining. - Roger More Dec 21, 10:51
