- zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz and they're sent! -- nm - CQ Aug 18, 11:47 1

Say what you want, but I'm still impressed with how much ground Kevin Bacon covered dancing in Footloose. -- nm - CQ Aug 18, 11:42 3

- I thought Cloverfield was extremely overrated. nm - Dignan Aug 18, 11:46 1
  - It's a film of good ideas that aren't particularly well implemented. District 9 is a vastly superior film imo. -- nm - David, Nailin' It Aug 18, 11:48
- I liked Cloverfield the first time when it was The Blair Witch Project. -- nm - Reagen Aug 18, 11:44 5
  - I liked blair witch the first time when it was war of the worlds. -- nm - mafic Aug 18, 11:50
  - I can see why someone would say this, but in my mind I have never connected these two movies -- nm - con_carne Aug 18, 11:49
  - Really? I think Blair Witch is half-decent, but Cloverfield is much better imo. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 18, 11:45 2
    - I'm being slightly facetious, but yes, I do actually think it's a superior movie. -- nm - Reagen Aug 18, 11:46

    - 25 Spawn Points - Spawn Aug 18, 11:45
- Cloverfield was the suck. -- nm - Beaker Aug 18, 11:43
- I skipped Cloverfield, it seemed far too blair-witchy. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 11:42 6
  - it was intense. I was happily surprised -- nm - CQ Aug 18, 11:46
  - That's too bad. It was one of my favorite movies from last year. -- nm - con_carne Aug 18, 11:45 1
    - Well, to be fair, the reason I skipped Blair Witch was because it was too blair-witchy -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 11:46
  - Give it a shot - it's a very good movie. And, for what it's worth, one of the better sound designs you'll ever "see" in a movie. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 18, 11:44 1
    - I can't shake the feeling that I need to buy a house first before I watch that movie ... - Beryllium Aug 18, 11:46

  - [deleted] 1
    - I've seen District 9, Star Trek, and Hangover, and I thought they were all great. However, Star Trek is probably the only one I'd re-watch. -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 11:43
- Julie & Julia? -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 11:35
- Taken. nm - Dignan Aug 18, 11:35 3
  - You know, I wouldn't be surprised. (Good movie) -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 11:35 2
    - For 2008 it was. -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 11:37 1
      - yeah, a valid point -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 11:37
- Moon? -- nm - Will Hunting Aug 18, 11:34 5
  - #237, with 5879 votes, the second fewest on the whole list. -- nm - Max Aug 18, 11:36 4
    - The top 250 is good pop culture point, but has a couple flaws. 1) Too many male users. 2) Movies prior to about 1997 are vastly underrepresented. - Don Homer Aug 18, 11:39 3
      - but not absent. Safety Last! (1923) is ranked #209. -- nm - Max Aug 18, 11:40
      - Yup, it's a short attention span scoring system. -- nm - David, Nailin' It Aug 18, 11:39 1

  - something like Moon or something -- nm - CQ Aug 18, 11:35
  - probably something big yet forgotten -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 11:33
  - not bandslam (only 5.2 rating!), 500 days is mentioned below. -- nm - Max Aug 18, 11:33
  - Oh yeah, 500 days. -- nm - Loyola Aug 18, 11:33
- Hurt Locker. -- nm - Callisto Aug 18, 11:31 1

    - Hairy Pooter -- nm - Beryllium Aug 18, 11:29 1

      - Haha this is why IMDB's ratings lack all credibility -- nm - MDH Aug 18, 11:26 4
        
        I agree. It should be closer to #50. -- nm - Spawn Aug 18, 11:27 3
        
        You left a zero off at the end of that :-p -- nm - MDH Aug 18, 11:28 2
        
        Well, even a top 500 movie of all-time is still pretty good. -- nm - Don Homer Aug 18, 11:28 1
        
        if you establish a minimum of about 700 user votes, you get a list of over 8000 movies produced in the US alone over the last 100 years. - Max Aug 18, 11:50
