IMDB Top 10
 
1. 9.2 The Shawshank Redemption (1994)
2. 9.2 The Godfather (1972)
3. 9.0 The Godfather: Part II (1974)
4. 8.9 The Good, the Bad and the Ugly (1966)
5. 8.9 Pulp Fiction (1994)
6. 8.9 Schindler's List (1993)
7. 8.9 12 Angry Men (1957)
8. 8.8 Inception (2010)
9. 8.8 One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (1975)
10. 8.8 The Dark Knight (2008)


Do you think it's fair Top 10?

The top 3 are near enough Spot on for me.. Inception is a bit to overrated and shouldn't be anywhere near the Top 10 same goes for the Dark Knight as well. Maybe Pulp fiction is a bit to high up as well top 20 maybe..

Shaun 09-03-2011 12:47 AM

haven't seen the Godfathers yet :( but fair enough.

I'd only really protest about Inception, The Dark Knight and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. The first two aren't even Nolan's best, and OFOTCN is a bit high for an adaptation :/

GypsyGoth 09-03-2011 01:07 AM

I'd pick a different 10.

But I'd say out of those there Pulp Fiction is my fave.

Locke. 09-03-2011 04:22 PM

Most are right, Shawshank shouldn't be #1 though

InOne 09-03-2011 04:54 PM

Inception shouldn't be there or The Dark Knight. Both painfully overrated

MeMyselfAndI 09-03-2011 06:16 PM

Inceptions my favourite

DrunkerThanMoses 10-03-2011 08:31 AM

I havent seen the good the bad the ugly or 12 angry men yet.

On the other films, Inception is the most over rated film after Avatar.

I think its a fair tope 10, One flew over the nest shouldnt be there though i think.

I depends on what we all think is a good movie.

Yeah, people seem to forget this sometimes!! Yeah, I like some on the list I agree with Shawshank being number 1, It's my second favourite film (after Dirty Dancing but I wasn't expecting that to be on the list!:joker: ) To be honest I wouldn't have put must of the others on the list bar maybe Inception and Pulp Fiction but then that's just my own personal taste.

I agree with Braveheart, Dirty Dancing, In Bruges and In the Name of the Father. Haven't seen Cold Mountain or Whitnail and I. Fargo and The Godfather were good but not my most favourite films and I hated Titanic and The English Patient with a passion!

Omah 10-03-2011 11:39 AM

Not a Top 10, but 10 Good'Uns .....
 
Alien
Das Boot
High Noon
Predator
Rear Window
The Hill
The Killing Of Sister George
The Matrix
The Thing
Withnail And I

:cool:

KG. 10-03-2011 12:11 PM

I agree with a lot of it although I'm not sure if they're in the right order and I'd get rid of TGTBATU, 12 Angry Men and Inception and put City of God, Fight Club and The Silence of The Lambs in their place.

DrunkerThanMoses 10-03-2011 12:12 PM

If I had my way the top 10 would be filled with horror and timothy hutton films :)

haha, I thought the Titanic was just far far too cheesy and The English Patient was possibly the most boring film I've ever seen!

I don't really like war films anyway, I barely remember it now, the only memory I have of it was waiting for something exciting to happen, I was convinced it would eventually seeing as it won all those awards................but it didn't :bawling:

MTVN 10-03-2011 02:31 PM

Not sure if I'd have Schindler's List so high, it is a great film though, wouldnt have the Dark Knight there either

Niamh. 10-03-2011 02:36 PM

The Shawshank redemption
Se7en
