I think our governator was way better as a bad guy. Just one of the unique pleasures of the original The Terminator. Made him a star, btw. And he never played the heavy again.




Till he was elected, that is. ;)

I need to start some institute that just makes lists all the time...

"The winners were chosen by actors, film-makers, critics and others in Hollywood from ballots that included 50 nominees in each genre."

I'm guessing a good half of them have never actually seen the films they voted for.

And yes, cinema peaked half a century ago.

The first thing that I noticed was Tombstone wasn't on the Westerns list

I protest the omissions of Forbidden Planet, The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance and Pillow Talk.

And Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.

I protest the exclusion of The Matrix.

And the exclusion of Monkeybone, Ballistic: Ecks vs Sever and Norbit.

Princess Bride didn't make the Fantasy category but Groundhog Day did??? I call shenanigans!

Not Afraid 06-18-2008 10:25 PM

I protest the exclusion of Fanny and Alexander and Berlin
Alexanderplatz from the Epic category. I guess they aren't American, huh.

I can really tell which genres I prefer from this list. I do 100% in some and 2% in others.

One could say it was curtains for Liberty Valance.
