Top 100 Films of All-Time: #100-91

Hey, this is Steve Blum, and you are listening

to the Geekcast Radio Network. Hello, and welcome

to episode 100 of The Cinema Geeks. That's right,

we made it. to 100 a long and winding road it

took to get there but we are here and with me

today celebrating in cinema geek fashion is hard

candy mandy hello hello i don't know what celebrating

in cinema geek fashion means or entails we're

going to set it off but you have colored pencils

i have uh grape juice that's probably the lamest

celebration i could possibly think of also joining

me is movie revolve dan hello hey how's it going

It's going and for episode for 100. We're gonna

change the name again. Is that no? And the co

-host And also joining me as you hear there is

for the sent hello Hey, are you guys doing like

a Sunday school? Cuz that's what that's what's

got grape juice and colored pencils I was gonna

try to pass mine off as like wine that just hasn't

turned into wine yet, but I wasn't clever enough

to come up with that in time. Like a Mitch Hedberg

joke. But Dan, going back, I mean, we have been

through a couple different names. We've had a

bunch of different people along the way. Can

you believe we actually made it to episode 100?

Long strange journey, but yeah. I don't even

know what the first, I should have been more

prepared. I don't remember what the first movie

we reviewed on here was, as we kind of split

off from Geocast Radio Network's other movie

podcast, M -Wire, and kind of started doing our

own weekly show. It was quite a long time ago,

and I remember myself, you, and I believe Michael

Powers might have been on that first episode.

And then from there, we've had Matt and Nate

on here. We brought in Amanda. We've had a bunch

of different guests along the way, and we've

changed names at least three times. But we're

counting all that under the same umbrella, so

that's how we actually get to episode 100. So

I guess we cheated in a way. I've got the first

episode pulled up here, if you want the description.

What was the movie? Was there a movie specifically?

It was the top 10 movies of 2013, an Oscar nomination.

conversation so back in the end of 2013 including

rumors for episode 7 and Batman vs Superman oh

so we found a way to get that in there from our

first episode Batman vs Superman is bad news

Wow, I knew we had talked about it for years.

I just didn't realize it was all the way back

to episode one We're actually also now the sixth

podcast on the geek cast radio network to get

to episode 100 So there's a the pull bag the

comic book podcast M wire Like I said the one

we branched out of tune cast the cartoon original

cartoon podcast a geek cast radio network Then

Steve's show altered geek and then Dan your other

show talking in circles. That's the company we

now join I guess so And Toycast will be shortly

behind us because it's been sitting at episode

99 for quite a while So they just need to put

out one more episode there But we're not gonna

get too much into anything as far as self reflecting

too much on the show or doing any types of clips

and I think we're gonna attempt to avoid the

the seven and a half hour as the first time watchers

themselves called it a Celebration of their I

think that was their 200th episode. So maybe

we'll get to there when we get to 200 but We

are going to start with a new series for the

rest of this year and possibly I guess spilling

over towards the end of the year maybe into the

beginning of next year but we obviously have

the video game series going on where we're discussing

all of the live action video game films and we

also have the Hayao Miyazaki spotlight which

we've been doing so this will be the third and

final kind of special series that we'll be doing

here in 2016 and Think only fitting since we

just did the list of shame where we let everybody

else kind of tell us what films we should be

watching That we haven't watched I guess this

is our chance to just put a whole bunch of films

out there that we think The listeners should

watch if they haven't watched it And what I mean

by that is we're gonna be starting a series that

we're gonna count down our top 100 films of all

time This is not a group effort, this is individually,

so we each have our own personal list that we've

done the research and developed and it'll be

our chance to list our favorite movies and hopefully

give you guys something to add to your queue

to watch in the future if you have missed any

of these. So Dan, what was the process like getting

into your top 100 films and did you have any

criteria that helped you narrow it down before

we start getting into the actual list? Well,

first of all, sadly this is not the first time

I've done this. I've done this on my own time.

on multiple occasions um actually the first time

like a few years ago and I used to do it I used

to do it as a yearly thing because that's the

type of guy I am um cool like that but so I would

look at I think it first started like 20 2010

was the first year I did it 2009 and The startup

it's gone through different many incarnations

It's actually kind of interesting as I look back

at my first one compared to the one I'm for this

list and how much that changed and just to clarify

There's actually so our first episode wasn't

was was the the movie we talked about was gravity

I was checking it and it was back in the MWIRE

weekly pilot episode on October 8th 2013 so For

some reason my app only goes back to January

2014 and I actually did just look that up and

he is right. It's probably one of the other names

that we use. It's probably the first episode

of like one of our other names because sometimes

it separates it by that. Yeah. We talked about

Gravity. We talked about a possible new Narnia

film. So waiting for that to happen. The Godzilla

trailer that was leaked. Wonder how that turned

out. and box office report. So there you go.

What about the live -action Cruella De Vil movie

that's in the works? Oh, that too. So all those

things happened. But yeah, so I did have some

criteria for this and I've kind of done it the

same way in the past where I do for myself, I

do eliminate in the sense of if I have a franchise

film, for the most part, there's some... Cheats

to this but I usually don't increase like if

it's for example the diehard franchise if I were

to include that and Both of them made one of

the Multiple films in that franchise would make

my top 100 I would just choose ones to represent

it just to get more variety and make it easier

for me to have more choices because even if it's

a hundred movies it is quite a list and I actually

put much more work in this than most people probably

put into their taxes because I rank the films

in different ways I basically I have a list of

all the films I've watched I've chose I chose

ones and I would take it and feel like okay I

feel like this is a top 10 top 20 top 30 film

and then I would take those and try I built a

list and I would I broke it down based upon genre

and looked at my favorite films in each genre

broke it down that way and It would do it a few

different ways and then I would look at each

list to see Simularities and where things would

put and I put some numbers to it to try not come

up with a more mathematical thing because that's

that's the way I work and I came up with my top

100 and I you know, I finagle things here and

there but I think I finally came up with what

I feel relatively confident in and You know,

though I also consider when you say favorites,

it can mean a lot of different things. And a

lot of these movies are obviously movies I love,

enjoy, personal. This isn't movies I would say

are the greatest films of all time. Some may

be in that, but they're films I attach myself

to, films that have greatly changed the way I

look at film or movies, or ones that I, you know,

it just made me fall in love with movies. So

when we get to them, I'll kind of explain why.

But yeah, way longer explanation than was needed,

but there you go. I like it, because you are

very similar to me in how I do things. And I've

obviously done lists like this before. I used

to actually carry around, I think it was like

four sheets of notebook paper, and it had my

top 50 films per decade. I had like everything

before the 80s, and then I had 80s, 90s, 2000s,

etc. pen and paper basically adjusted as time

went on and I just kept it by I kept it actually

bedside as sad as that is and it would be how

I would determine which movies I would buy and

then every year I'd have to make readjustments

as I saw more films I even had on the back was

just a list of all the films that I hadn't seen

from that decade that I wanted to see so it was

kind of insane and then eventually graduated

to modern times and put it on computer form.

So I was updating this list and changing it and

evolving it time after time. I will not be afraid

to admit that I actually adjusted the list for

a final time, like minutes before we started

this record. So it is ever evolving and ever

changing. I think the interesting thing for me,

and I'm going to try not to say it too many times

during the record, but the hardest part I think

for me is Going back and then trying to rank

certain films that I've only seen once and that

may have been long ago, you know, at least 10

years ago or more. And I've only seen once because

it is based on, you know, the past and based

on my memories of what I thought of those films.

And I'd be interested to see if I saw some of

these films a second time, if they would either

fall off of my list or maybe even go higher.

But I'll talk about a couple of them that majorly

focus around that as we go through. And I, like

Dan, did as well eliminate double movies appearing

from single franchise. I don't fault anybody

that has multiple films in a franchise, because

that's probably more of a true list, but I just

was trying to sneak some more films in. So I

only included one film per franchise, and whatever

the highest one is, that's when I'll talk about

it. But yeah, I think it's going to be interesting

as we go through to kind of see how much we differ

in our tastes and whatnot, and see what kind

of crossover we have. But Amanda, how did you

go about tackling this list and project for probably

the first time? Well, I made this list a week

ago. I haven't been carrying it with me or having

extensive spreadsheets for a long time. So I

just got this in Excel, bust this bad boy out.

And I think the hardest part was not getting

my 100 movies. It was ordering them. Definitely

the hardest part. It's hard to justify to yourself

putting one movie above another. And it's like,

what's the difference between 74 and 86, really?

I have an equation that can show you where that

can be. I would have really liked that, Dan.

That would have been helpful. But I just kind

of went on my gut, and I picked a lot of movies

that I've watched a ton of times. I think that

the newer the movie is, the more it's had an

impact on me as an adult. So you'll see some

newer stuff, but also I think a majority of my

list is a lot of nostalgia and things that I...

call part of my childhood and also you know a

few movies that definitely showed me what it

was to love movies very early on and it definitely

instilled my love of film too so it's kind of

a give and take there. You bring up a couple

of interesting things. Number one, you talked

about nostalgia a little bit and then you also

brought up the point about some more recent movies

that have maybe shaped some of your opinions

as you become older. Dan, I wanted to get your

take on how do you approach films that have come

out in the last maybe one or two years? I know

a lot of people need more time to possibly sit

on those films or to have a chance to rewatch

them or to let them see how much they affected

over time and they might be unwilling to place

them on a list like this early on. And I think

other times people... I do believe in the whole

instant classic where they just see something

and it automatically is up there with some of

the best movies they've seen of all time. How

do you kind of approach films that came out over

the last 10 to 20 months? Well, I didn't include

anything from 2015. Usually when I do, like I

said, do this year list yearly and I usually

don't. Make a film eligible until it's been a

year since it's been like one release So I honestly

even like I didn't think my 2015 probably wanted

to made it But I did include movies in 2014 it

if they would been eligible It's it's challenging

like it's when a movies like you're reading something

that I saw when I was a kid and Seen probably

50 times compared to something I've seen, you

know a couple times recently And it ranges I

think I have some that are maybe will will change

and that's I think the the fun part of doing

it each year seeing some of those climb up and

maybe some of them like a movie I loved and I

thought would be my top 50 in a few years never

made it just because it maybe didn't have the

lasting impact that I thought I did but I will

say there will be some recent films that actually

we may talk about today and maybe we'll talk

about when this ends and I think you know ultimately

I didn't I think a movie it's possible for something

that may have come out with last couple years

to get in really high it's rare but I think it's

possible. Matt, what about you? How did you come

up with your method of madness and figuring out

your top 100? And is there anything that you

eliminated or any criteria you put on yourself?

Well, first I want to comment just on what Dan

said, which is that I've got a 2015 movie in

my top three, bro. So, you know, that's what

I'm coming to the table with. Like, I have...

One of the worst memories of anyone that I know

or anyone that I remember which would have been

a funnier joke So like I don't remember shit

like anything Like I've probably got a problem

and I should see a doctor, but I don't so the

way I compiled my list Was I wrote down all of

the movies I could remember enjoying ever for

any reason and I mean literally any reason like

My number 100 is going to have a funny story

that has nothing to do with what happened in

the movie, but what was happening in the room,

because that's how I work. And then once I had

those 20 movies I could remember, I started asking

everyone at work, what are your favorite movies?

And I would write down, like, I've seen that

one, I've seen that one. And then eventually,

once I got to, I don't know, maybe 50 movies,

I went to IMDB. And then I just pulled up the

lists of any movies that I liked and then pulled

up what lists they were in. So like I'd go to

Star Wars and be like, you know, my top 100 favorite

movies, my top 50 favorite movies, you know,

30 classics. And then anything I'd seen that

I remembered enough that I could comment on in

some way, I would load that up and throw it into

an Excel spreadsheet and I worked from there.

So my list is going to be all over the place.

and there's going to be at least one or two movies

that probably should have been top 10 if not

top 20 if not top 10 that I'm just going to forget

I've even seen. That's another fun thing about

this though and hopefully what the listeners

can get out of too is maybe you know as you go

through there's so many movies that come out

on a yearly basis and it's impossible to see

them all and sometimes you have those that kind

of just slip by the radar even for people that

see a crap ton of movies there's ones that you

miss and As time goes on, sometimes you forget

about those or they're just kind of lost. And

I think doing these types of things will remind

me of some films that I might see come up on

your guys' list that I really want to see. And

I'll add those to the... the list of films I

need to see along with that list of shame episode

that we did and hopefully it can add some films

to people's cues that they might be interested

in checking out. So I think it is fun to kind

of see everybody's list and have their memories

jogged as far as some stuff that we might forget

about. Before people get too freaked out though.

This is not going to be an eight hour podcast.

We are going to break this down a little bit.

So today we're only going to be giving you guys

the first set of 10. So we're going to be going

100 through 91. So that's why it's a series of

podcasts. So we'll do 10 at a time and we'll

kind of sprinkle these in throughout the rest

of the year, along with the video game episodes

and along with the Miyazaki episodes, as well

as any. prediction episodes we have or just like

regular general movie reviews. So we will break

it up a little bit for you guys and keep the

anticipation building as we inch closer and closer

to getting to our number one somewhere down the

road. Amanda, Matt, Dan, any other comments before

we want to get into this? I want to say that

I don't think I cheated at all in this. So be

super proud of me because I went straight arrow

and did... Do you get a gold star? I think I

deserve more than one gold star. You get two

gold stars. Yeah, I would say, again, this is

a good chance. Why listen to this? I think, one,

you can listen to a lot of films we probably

wouldn't have talked about, really, otherwise.

So I'll be able to bring up some stuff that...

And two, I think it's a thing with movie... you

know, we do talk about and review films and I

think it's good to know what other people, what

people like when they're coming to a table and

they're reviewing a movie and you can kind of

get that sense and see like, okay, I tend to

have the similar taste to, you know, Kevin or

Amanda or Matt or me. And I think you'll see

that our tastes are very varied. And I think

it's kind of good to consider that when you're,

when you're listening to review, because it makes

it think, you know, okay, where it like, it gives

you a better sense of where that review is coming

from. Yeah, absolutely and I think through the

list of shame and through this it should give

you a pretty good idea of each of our histories

with movies and kind of what we gravitate towards

and and like you said it can help you determine

you know when you're listening to us review maybe

a newer film that you haven't seen if you want

to see that or if it's gonna be something up

your alley if it lines up with whichever person

you line up with more so I think that's a great

point so Matt any other things that you want

to get out before you leave the show off with

your number 100 pick that My list is bad and

I cheated a lot Well, let's start it out then

see and where your list begins, let's give us

the first 100 pitwoods. What do you have? Okay,

so like I teased before this one's got more of

a story than the more of a story in the room

than this movie has a story and That movie. Oh,

wait this whole ten this this this ten Is all

movies that like I really like enjoyed watching

and they were like a memorable experience But

they're hard to rank because they're not good

movies. These are all But anything I say today

don't take as a good movie even though I'm going

to extol their virtues as if they were like a

Scorsese film My number 100 sharknado everybody

Yeah, the sharknado the I've only seen the first

one I haven't seen sharknado the second or whatever

they're calling the third one And it was one

of those bad movie night nights like we all got

together I baked a bunch of pies because I was

baking pies that was my pie phase and Just it's

like it's one of those bad movies where they

they don't quite know it's bad But they know

that it's not good at Tara Reed for whatever

reason And so that's what I put that one on my

list guys If anyone is still listening to us

we have succeeded in something I've still never

watched a Sharknado movie and I feel I should

have probably put that in my list of shame because

I've never watched one. I've never seen one either.

I think you should... Amanda, have you seen Sharknado?

I have not seen Sharknado. So Matt, you're the

only one that's actually seen it so we can't

argue with your point. You guys are all going

to not have seen a lot of my movies. Alright,

so Sharknado begins this epic celebration. So

Amanda, where are you gonna start your list?

What is your number 100? Oh man, very auspicious

occasion here, I would say. And I'm going to

kick it off with number 100 is The Fast and the

Furious. I have to leave the box. Sharknado and

Fast and Furious. We've lost all credibility.

The first Fast and Furious movie was one that

I super loved as a young adult. I've seen it

a ton of times. I loved all the cars, I loved

all the attitudes, I loved the characters, and

look at the huge saga that has come forth from

this movie. And we're still getting what, seven

more? Something like that, yes. But I will not

be ashamed of saying that I do like the first

Fast and Furious movie, and I've seen it a ton

of times, enough to be deserving on my top 100.

So would you say... I guess maybe we'll find

out if that's your favorite Fast and Furious

movie. We'll have to wait with bated breath to

see when The Rock shows up if they've elevated

the franchise to higher levels. I will say that

out of all the franchises, there's not going

to be multiples. I just picked one, like Dan,

to kind of give more variety and not to dominate

because my, I mean, seven, eight, nine movies

could have been Harry Potter. I didn't think

about that. We're Harry Potter from here on out.

Alright, well I am I'm gonna also put a movie

at my one number 100 that is not very well received

and is not very well reviewed but for some reason

it hit a chord with me and I think it Maybe I

saw it at the right time. This is again though

gonna be my first example of a film I've only

seen once and I have not seen it for over 20

years. So Very possibly could be a film that

I watch again and would be nowhere near my top

100, but I'm gonna go with 1993 film Directed

by Thomas Carter called swing kids, and I don't

even know if anybody's ever seen this film besides

me But it is a film that actually stars a very

young Christian Bale As well as a few other people

Kenneth Branagh is in this but it's basically

a a film about Hitler youth that are fans of

swing music by night and Hitler Youth by day

is basically the tagline there. But it's an interesting

kind of coming of age slash what if you were

coming of age in the middle of World War II era

Germany and kind of What freedoms you have and

don't have and for some reason the drama and

the time period I was a fan of it somewhat got

some historic Essences and strokes to it. I guess

you could say but it's not a very well -received

film So this is very possibly a film that my

teenage self saw that liked way more than I would

like it as an adult it's currently got a 38 %

on Rotten Tomatoes by the critics, but it actually

has a 79 % when it comes to fans. So it's one

of the biggest splits I think I've ever seen

on Rotten Tomatoes as far as the gap between

the critics and the fans. But for some reason,

it just hit a chord with me from a dramatic standpoint

at a time when I was young and didn't really

like drama. So Swing Kids is my number 100. Dan

I've never heard of it. So in that's what I figure

most people have probably not heard of it Like

I said, it has a Christian veil in 1993 along

with Robert Sean Leonard and Noah Wiley and a

Couple of the people that really didn't make

much of themselves afterwards. The titles just

sounds illegal. I'm not gonna lie Yeah, I swing

music but but yet so that's my adjunct order

actually doesn't use it and there's some some

music uh... throughout scattered throughout the

answer enjoying the swing music but uh... dan

what's your number well i think my own one hundred

point little a little more known. It's actually

kind of along the same lines as Amanda's with

Fast and the Furious, as it's also about something

that goes very fast, but mine's a bus, and that

is speed, is my number 100. You know, after Die

Hard, we got a lot of Die Hard and Finish the

Sentence, a lot of movies that try to kind of

repeat that same success, and you know, speed

very much is that, but it ends up being a lot

more. It's actually, I think, one of the best

edited action films ever. It holds up. really

well compared to a lot of action films at the

time. It's surprising how impressive it still

holds. It remains to this day, the action is

high intensity. I just recently rewatched it

not too long ago because I think we did an episode

for it for MWIRE and I was majorly impressed.

I'm like, wow, this is still a really solid...

well -directed well -made film and you know it's

got some iconic lines of course Keanu Reeves

and Dennis Hoppers is a really fun bad guy and

i think it's like of all the action films of

the nineties it to me it still holds up as one

of the best it's in that vein of clones of die

hard i think it's you know it's the closest i

think we got and Keanu Reeves didn't try to be

like you know John McClain he was his own character

but It's a lot of fun. It might get over the

top. Yeah, I'm seeing a bus jump and but overall,

you know It's a bus that couldn't slow down and

I ended up I find it a very rewatchable really

enjoyable filming. So I think it's a film that

ended up being Better over time than you might

have even thought when when we originally watched

it. It's something that has held up surprisingly

well and I think it is because of how well it's

edited and how well the action goes goes with

it and I agree with you I think it is one of

the best action films of that era and it's a

lot of fun it's just a fun action film that I

think a lot of people can enjoy no matter if

they saw it back in the 90s or if they see it

today Amanda big fan of speed or not yeah I love

speed I've even seen speed 2 I want to say there's

a third one, but maybe just two. But I'm a huge

Sandy B fan, also love me some Kiano. So back

in the day, this is definitely one that I would

sit down with my grams in the living room and

watch on TNT. We had it on BHS and stuff too,

so definitely rocked this as a kid and seen it

a lot. And I think it's worthy of a top 100.

All right. Matt, where do we go for 99? What

was Sharknado 2? You said you didn't see, so

that's out. I'm just kidding. Where do you go

for your number 99? A movie that's slightly less

bad that also no one has heard of because it

didn't have the pop culture status that Sharknado

did, which is Death Race 2000. I've seen this.

Yes! I've heard of it. Starring David Carradine

and Sylvester Stallone in a semi -post -apocalyptic

race for reasons. I know that it's it's a race

where you get it's like it's you know Everyone's

car game where it's like if you run over a senior

citizen you get 20 points And it's part race

part Mario Kart weird point system and the winner

gets to shake the hand of the president And that's

what you win is you get to shake the hand of

the president and I believe um... so that's just

the loans whole point is that that the first

one i can't remember the protagonist of the antagonist

is between us yet like you know uh... want to

shake the president's hand any of the prosthetic

hand that actually a grenade and that they make

the pun it's a hand grenade uh... and his whole

thing is he's gonna pull the penny when he shakes

the president and the president's gonna blow

up because he ruined the worst i can't recommend

this movie and i don't know I think people are

already actually watching it. They've stopped

listening so they can immediately watch. It was

on Netflix for the longest time. I don't know

if it still is, but yeah. Because actually I

remember watching the, like, you know, the Jason

Statham remake and then seeing that the original

was on. It was like still in one of his first

hits, you know, or first movies really ever,

so. Yeah. Have you seen both of them, Dan? I've

seen the original and that one. I think there

might be even a sequel to Death Waite 2000, but

I could be wrong. Is the original better or the

remake? Well the original I think is it's it's

it's I think I don't know it's more unique if

you like the the remake feels very Contrived

and trying to be something it isn't the you know

the sequel or the original 2000 has like no shame

It's like we're gonna and we're going for it,

and we're gonna be crazy We're you know the other

one try to take itself too seriously. I think

gotcha All right, Amanda. What do you have at

99? Oh? Lord nobody's gonna know this one A 1992

movie. It's the cutting edge. Its genre is drama,

romance, slash sport. I've seen the cover of

this like a thousand times, I think. The tagline

is, the king of the rank is about to meet America's

ice queen. Basically, it's a romantic movie,

drama, about a hockey player who basically gets

kicked off his team or whatever. He gets trounced

and is forced to become... a figure skater and

it's paired with an ice queen definitely and

I love hockey love being on the ice this is like

the only love story slash sport movie on the

ice so I think I was just attracted to it my

mom showed me this for the first time I think

when I was younger so I think I saw this a little

bit too young but it always kind of stuck with

me I've seen it a few times since and it's super

cheesy and I was the guy this guy I thought I

remembered him but uh oh no I think I think the

reason I remember that is because it has the

girl in it is I swear she's known for something

else that she she did she's a voice I wanna say

that she was like a game show host or something

on a Nickelodeon show or something. But anyways,

I've seen the cover so many times working in

DVDs. But they go to the Olympics, so I mean,

it's legit. But I've never seen the movie, so

I can't. But it is right up your alley. Dan or

Matt, have either of you seen The Cutting Inch?

I've never heard of it, I'm sorry. It sounds

more familiar than the movie you talked about.

It does, it does. Alright, so that is a perfect

movie to represent... you I Mean your interest

and and Your nostalgia for movies of that era

as well So the cutting -edge people have to add

it to their list to check it out to see if it's

as worthy as you have it in 99 for my 99 I am

randomly going to stay in nineteen ninety -three

my one hundred because in nineteen ninety three

and so is my nineteen ninety -nine pick uh...

from last year all strong which i probably always

say his name wrong but it's uh... going to be

a movie i've recently caught up with actually

this year and that is what's being gilbert great

leonardo de caprio johnny depp et cetera i just

think this is uh... uh... good uh... well i think

it's well done obviously i think it's well acted

i think it's just a good character piece and

a good slice of a certain part of Americana,

I guess, in a way. And I just think it was also

a well -balanced movie between the comedic moments

between the drama, a little bit of, I guess,

suspense with some things and a little bit of

romantic angle. I think they did everything kind

of on the right balance so that nothing seemed

overly done. And I think it's just an interesting

thing for cinema. geeks to see when you get to

see such a young Johnny Depp and such a young

Leonardo DiCaprio acting in this film. So I enjoyed

this film quite a bit enough to make it all the

way up to my number 99 pick. I didn't think you

liked this that much when we watched it. It grew

on me. I actually remember watching that. The

first time I watched that was in school and because

that's you know why teach you get you a movie

but yeah actually that's a quite good I mean

Caprio's Amazing and just remember the all I

can think of is you know the mom and Every time

I every time I go to a Walmart I think of that

movie and like walking out and thinking I'm gonna

run into that guy from the store as if he's a

real person but Yeah, like as if he's gonna be

disappointed that I went to a superstructure

Well, I'm going to go, you know, number 100,

I had speed. I'm going to go in a very similar

route for number 99 with a 1936 silent comedy

film by Charlie Chaplin. I'm actually a huge

fan of silent films, silent comedy specifically.

It's something about, I don't know, that I get

impressed by the fact that a movie could be,

you know, nine years old and still quite funny

and humorous. And that's the case with modern

times. You know, there's obviously Charlie Chaplin,

a lot of classic silent filmmakers. I tend to

enjoy Buster Keaton more and we'll talk about

him as we go down this list. But Modern Times

is, you know, one of his most notable. I don't

know if the people would consider it the best,

but it's just got some increasingly impressive

set pieces within its comedy. You know, there's

the classic Cure sequence and it's just, you

go back and you watch, you're like, how exactly

did they do it at that time? Plus, it also has

a pretty... you know, a cutting edge political

message in that, too. I think that's when Charlie

Chaplin was really good at, too. Maybe better

than Keaton is that within his comedy, he would

always be saying something. But I just find it

really funny. It sets up a lot of classic comedy

bits that we still see today. But it also says

something. And it was one of the early films,

one of the early silent films that I watched.

I'm like, wow, this is, you know, I can actually

get into this despite its format, despite it's

something that we're not used to seeing. It's

quite good. It's really, really enjoyable and

holds up to this day. I don't have any aversion

to silent films whatsoever. I actually was exposed

to quite a few silent films in my youth, but

it was at an age where I wasn't into movies enough

to recognize what I was watching or to remember

what I was watching, so I don't remember which

ones I've seen, but that's something that I need

to get bitten. get back into and watch them all

now that I would have a better memory and idea

of who was in them and what it was about, et

cetera. But I think there's a lot to say for

that era specifically. I mean, you think about

today's era where... You know, a lot of times

a movie is way more about the marketing, the

visual effects, and kind of the flash of the

film, and a little bit less about the character

development, the stories, the acting, etc. And,

you know, not just going back to older eras,

but then you could probably say the same thing

about movies, you know, from the early talking

era compared to the silent films. you know what

I mean, when you didn't even have the speaking

and that type of thing, where it just elevates,

I agree, I think it's so impressive and it elevates

it to another level, the way they're able to

convey what they're able to convey, and I think

it just lends more credence to, you know, when

elements of the actual movie storytelling, characters,

etc. were the forefront and were the most important

item on the screen. So I think that's a great

pick to include some silent films in here. So

that is where we're at with... 99 and Matt that

means it's back to you for your number 98. I

have a talkie for number 98 Following up my previous

movie which stars David Carradine. I've got another

movie with David Carradine in it He shows up

way too much in my list movie that I think no

one's heard of evil tunes No, but now I'm intrigued.

Is it at all related to tiny tunes? it is wacky

and zany tell us more okay so this movie has

to be one of the made by one of the creepiest

guys in the movie making industry it's a weird

sort of like b -movie slasher written I think

essentially for the point of showing some like

ex porn stars naked on screen It wasn't the director

commentary, it was like the director's special

or something where the guy just talked about

shooting this movie and he was so weird and sleazy.

And the idea he said was after seeing Roger Rabbit

and seeing that a cartoon lady could be sexy,

he wanted to see if he could make a movie that

might make it into theaters that had sexiness

and cartoon characters all into one. So... Somehow

he got David Carradine, I guess he needed money.

And the idea is that there's like a demon book,

it's like the Necronomicon, and it's summoning

like a cartoon wolf man, and it's like a semi

-haunted house situation where a bunch of girls

are staying in a house. I think it's one of those

you have to stay in in order to get it from your

ancestry, as is in every will ever, because that's

what they do in haunted houses. And David Carradine

hangs himself, which was a sad thing considering

what happened to him just a few years after I

saw it. And it's just so weird, and the director's

so creepy, and there's just very awkward, like,

oh, we turned on the radio, I'm gonna take my

top off, we're all gonna dance, and it's like,

why is that one naked? And then it ends with,

I think, them throwing the Akronomicon in the

fireplace, and that's just good. 1992's Evil

Toons. So that is an interesting description

to say the least. I want to say I had to capture

some images of some of the cartoon characters

that are involved in that for the voice acting

website, but I haven't actually seen the film,

so I have no comment on Evil Toons. You are correct.

I have not watched that one. Amanda? I'm not

watching that with you. Amanda not only has not

watched that, but refuses to watch that based

on that description. And I've seen Puppet Master.

And Puppet Master 2. Well, what have you seen

that you liked enough to put at your 98 spot?

I might get a little weird look from you on this

one. You've already gotten a couple. I know.

And Sandy B getting brought up again here. This

movie has three things that I love. Sandy B,

Ryan Gosling, and murder. Okay? Murder by numbers

is number 98. Have you guys seen this flick?

I Probably have but I don't remember It's I wouldn't

say it's it's not uh, it's not too old if Ryan

Gosling looks young forever. Anyways, we know

this it's 2002 and Two gifted high school students

execute a quote -unquote perfect murder and then

become engaged in an intellectual contest with

a seasoned homicide detective, which is Sandy

B, by the way. So, Ryan Gosling... Who else would

it be? Ryan Gosling looks as good as fuck in

a red leather jacket and he's just chain -smoking

the whole time. He's got some nice Italian boots

on. It's just, it's a good time. Go see it. Does

chain -smoking help the image? A little bit,

yeah. He treats Sandy B about wearing like a

JCPenney's Kmart special outfit or something

like that. It's a good time. Alright murder by

numbers. I think I own that as part of like a

three pack of DVDs Alright so murder by numbers

is your 98 for my 98 I am going to do something

I wasn't sure if I was going to do or not what

kind of talked about it in the intro but I do

have a couple 2015 2014 films that are going

to make it into my countdown and I think the

main reason the main justification that I have

for these is I believe what they represent and

how well I kind of am predicting that they're

going to age is going to solidify why I have

them. I also think that there's a lot of films

that I kind of thought of that are kind of somewhat

in this genre that I thought... kind of hard

about whether they would go into my list or not

stuff like spaceballs stuff like airplane and

some other kind of those spoof films and I ended

up actually going with the 2015 one of kind of

that same genre just because I think it does

a couple different things well that I think we'll

hold up and make it a cult classic over time.

I'm going with 2015's What We Do in the Shadows.

I obviously picked it when we did our former

list as one of the best comedies of recent times.

I had it very high in my 2015 list. It has 96

% on Rotten Tomatoes. I just like what they do

here. I think it was a perfect timing with the

genre as far as the zombie, etc. area that they're

tackling with everything else that's going on

in pop culture. But I mean I think it's somewhat

interchangeable with a lot of these other spoof

films that we've had. Robin Hood, Men in Tights,

I guess that Airplanes, Spaceballs, etc. But

I'm putting this one as the representative I

guess of that on my list at number 98. Well,

you can skip me because it is also my 97. What?

Yes. We got that close? Yes. Wow. So what's your

take on it and why does it make 97 for you? I've

just always been a super fan of the genre with

as far as like a cult with vampires and werewolves

and you know the duel between them this everlasting

battle that's going on between them and I think

that the humor tied into it the mockumentary

style to make it real quote -unquote real we're

gonna put some quotes on that I think that it

was just the perfect kind of humor for me. I

could not stop laughing to the entire thing.

I'll re -watch it. I'll just put it on for shits

and gigglies to watch for 10 minutes. Can you

say shits and gigglies? Yes. Sorry. I can never

eat spaghetti again and call it spaghetti. It's

busy. All right, so a double vote, I guess, for

what we do in the shadows. Dan? Yeah. I liked

that movie quite a bit as well, but it didn't

make my top 100, but it did make my top 10 last

year. I did enjoy it. great deal. For my number

98, it's kind of the opposite of my number 99.

My number 99 was a silent film and my number

98 is a movie that is just really consisting

of two people talking and it is My Dinner with

Andre, which actually kind of got some new boost

because there was a recent, I guess not recent

anymore, a few years ago there was an episode

of Community that had a spoof of My Dinner with

Andre which made me love that episode. But My

Dinner with Andre is just that. came out in the

80s, and it's basically just two people having

a conversation. And it's, I think, a film that,

you know, some people may label pretentious or

what have you, but I think it just kind of shows

you the power of dialogue when it comes to movies.

And the way it kind of evolves, and you have

this guy who gets involved in this dinner that

he doesn't really want to go to with this person.

He doesn't really like all that much, but it

just kind of goes from there, and there's just

this everlasting... threat of this dinner ending,

but the conversation continuing. It's intriguing

in that way. It does so much for a film that

does so little. I love films that are very limited

storytelling that take place in one day, or real

time, or what have you, and this does it. It's

a very short period of time. It's I think less

than 90 minutes if that. Film that's really self

-contained and I always I'm impressed with how

much someone can do in that shorter time span

So again, it's not a movie for everyone I get

some people wouldn't enjoy it because there's

not much maybe going on But I really loved it

and I remember watching it. My wife is like what

they're just still sitting there talking Like

yeah, that's kind of the movie. That's like what

happened But like I said, it's not for everybody.

It's my number 98 It is a blind spot for me.

I have not seen my dinner with Andres. So it's

on the list of things I need to watch. Matt?

No, man. I've got another one that's terrible

that you guys are going to enjoy. Zarkor the

Invader. Why are you making this stuff up? No,

dude. Zarkor is one of the greatest movies of

all time. It's one of the top 100 movies of all

time. Because during the end credits, it has

its own theme song. It's essentially just a Godzilla

ripoff movie where it's just another dude in

a suit terrorizing a town and it's just it's

like I think it came a little too late and it

might have too high of a budget to be as crappy

and Godzilla -y as it was but I fucking loved

it and it was great and I think they defeat Zarkor

by reflecting his atomic breath back at him by

using like the windshield of his spaceship that

he landed here on. And then at the end, the end

credits has the Zarkor theme. It's like, Zarkor!

He'll tear up your town! I don't even need to

see it anymore. It gave everything to me. I mean,

no. It might seem like it, but it's not. There's

so much more. There's David Carradine in this.

I don't remember him being in it, but I'm not

going to say no. Seriously, look up the end theme

to Zarkor. Z -A -R -K -O -R -R. Zarkor the invader

end credits theme song. It's hilarious because

it's got an exclamation point after the Zarkor.

Zarkor the invader. This is awesome, dude. I'm

gonna I'm gonna apologize like I I'm bad. You

don't need to apologize This is like a hit list

of awesome films to watch with with a group of

people and some people I like it. I want to see

that double bill of Czar core and my dinner with

Andre like that on the mark. He would be amazing

They're good number nine mid 90s of the cinema

geeks We will skip past Amanda since she already

revealed her number 97 What we do in the shadows

and go straight to my number 97, which will be

my first pick from the 80s I'm gonna go back

to 1987 a film that wasn't on my original or

the last couple iterations of my top 100 but

it kind of snuck on this time and I think what's

elevating this one is its ability to blend both

comedy and drama which is difficult two genres

to blend in the way that this one does it. And

I'm putting Good Morning Vietnam on my list at

number 97. I just think what they're able to

pull off with this film is interesting because

a lot of times if you're trying to do comedy,

especially a Robin Williams style comedy, I feel

like you can't necessarily... pull off also a

genuine dramatic elements or those types of tones

and I think it does it real well here. Barry

Levinson is a pretty good director and I think

he was on the top of his game with Good Morning

Vietnam in 1987. I do need to re -watch this.

I've only seen this maybe twice and the last

time I watched it was quite a few years ago so

maybe this is due to have a re -watch as well

but I love Robin Williams and I loved what they

did with Good Morning Vietnam. I don't think

I've seen that movie in its entirety, honestly.

It's actually a blind spot for me too. It's the

one I almost put on my list of shame, but I did

not. It's the one I need to catch up with. All

right. So Dan, what do you have at your number

97? All right. My number 97. I feel like I'm

going to be... I'll give you back on a different

end, but I'm also gonna go with another lesser

-known film, but it is a coming -of -age film,

and I'm a huge fan of coming -of -age stories,

and this one also involves a coming -of -age

story involving a young coming -of -age teenager

and a bond with an end wellness being a falcon

in the movie Cass. It's a movie from the 1960s.

It takes place in, I think, a small British town,

and it's about this boy who basically is an outcast

within his community. He's picked on, he kind

of can't really find his place, and he ends up

finding, though, some sort of escape with this

paragon falcon that... is in his neighborhood,

he becomes friends with it, he begins training

it, and it becomes his escape from everything

else going wrong with his world. A recent film

that came out not too long ago, The Selfish Giant,

which was another coming -of -age British film,

they tie very close together for me because they're

very similar in that end where you're getting

kids that are... People that are in communities

that in themselves are outcasts from the majority

of the world But then themselves are find themselves

in either subgenre, but it's just a really touching

source malls and scale Story, and it's I know

it's simple and but beautiful in that end. So

It's a it's like it's a movie It's what I would

advise even though it's in English to watch it

with the subtitles because the accents are so

thick But if you're fan of covering image films,

I would definitely recommend it I'm a big fan

of coming of age films so I'll put that one on

my list. For some reason though my ears were

hearing coming of age films starring a boy and

I didn't hear Falcon. I heard Falcor and I thought

you were going with Neverending Story. I don't

know why my mind went that direction when you

were describing that but no I'll definitely add

this one to those. What year did you say this

was from? I think 1969. It's in the late 60s.

Gotcha. Alright so add that one to my list. Matt.

Oh, it's already back around to me? Yeah, we

skipped him out of this, right? Yeah, I know,

I was listening. So, mine is a movie that everyone's

probably seen that probably doesn't deserve to

be on my list, but I have a terrible memory.

And I can't remember good movies, like Jaws.

So, I put for my, um, the next number, 95? 96.

Crank! Starring Jason Statham. A literal... Would

I have sex in front of a bus of Chinese kids?

Yeah, who doesn't want to do that? Me! Or fall

out of a helicopter and bounce off of a car?

Survive! No, I think he dies and then they bring

him back in the next one, right? That's how he

dies, I think. Anybody that has Fast and Furious

on here, this cannot yell about Crank being on

somebody's... In Amanda's defense, I put Crank

lower than she put Fast and Furious. Amanda,

you've seen this one now? I have seen this, yes.

Not a fan? I've seen a lot of Jason Statham movies,

believe it or not. And it's just too unbelievable

for me. There's a line where you're like, yeah,

this is some outrageous shit, but I can get behind

it. But this is just so off the wall. And literally,

he decides to have sex with his girlfriend in

the middle of a busy street in front of a bus

of Chinese kid tourists. and all these people

standing around them and they're like getting

like cheered on and like all because he got injected

with some drug that's gonna explode his heart

in a few hours or something like that he's like

keep his adrenaline up the whole time he has

to keep his adrenaline up or his heart will stop

so he's just gonna do crazy shit the entire movie

that makes yeah dude it's just like it's just

a constant trying to overtop itself and it just

gets more and more ridiculous and it's like this

is dumb It's dumb it probably should have been

lower or higher depending on how like I've seen

it. It is kind of insane. It is, though, well

-directed. The action sequences are pretty impressive

on their scale. They also did the second Ghost

Raider movie, and they are just crazy. They just

kind of go for it. I think they're two brothers.

I mean, some of the action pieces are pretty

good, and he's beating the crap out of people

in bathrooms and stuff. I mean, he's a monster

in this. No barriers, we're just gonna go crazy

the entire time. Yeah. Just trying to get over

the fact that three people in this record have

seen this film. Hey, I haven't even seen the

sequel, if that helps. That does help. All right,

Amanda, what film do you have at number 96? This

is one I'm pretty sure everybody's heard of,

at least in this room here. And that's Pan's

Labyrinth is my number. 96. It's one that I've...

fairly newer but it's one that I latched onto

immediately and watched over and over and over

again and I'm gonna continue to watch it over

and over again. It was one where I would put

it on to go to sleep at night too because there's

like a lullaby in the beginning basically like

a little fairy tale story that is being told

and the whole movie is obviously in spoken Spanish

so it's definitely darker. Fairytale, but I like

the dark fairy tale thing and it's brutal and

it pulls in your heartstrings But it also takes

you into this complete fantasy world. That's

that's amazing So it's it's one that I wanted

to put higher but based on like all my nostalgia

stuff that my list is packed with I had to be

down here a little bit lower so at 96 there it

is I recently caught up with this one because

I hadn't seen it, and I did enjoy it quite a

bit. It's not going to make my list, but I do

think that this is another one that fits very

well into the style of film that you like, and

you're a big fan of Del Toro, so actually I'm

surprised that you don't have this one a little

bit higher. Yeah, I do, but like I said, there's

a ton of misalgepics that I had to throw up there.

There's only so much room for Sandy B movies.

Yes. You'll see. Alright, for my number 96, I'm

going to a Richard Linklater film, actually,

and it's, I guess, interestingly enough, been

talked about a lot this year in relation to another

film that he brought out, and I'm going with

1993. How did I have three films in 1993 in this

section? I don't know, and that is Dazed and

Confused. It's just, again, I guess you could

kind of put it in that coming of age bracket,

but also... Like I said, like I kind of talked

about with being a slice of Americana this one's

a slice of a certain time period and really kind

of captures the essence of that time period and

I don't know how you it appeals to so many people

of so many different ages that I think can relate

to it and again another film that stars a bunch

of young versions of some stars that we've come

to know and and love I guess over the years,

but It's one of my favorite Linklater films,

but again, I haven't seen all of the before films

and some of his other filmography, but Dazed

and Confused is my number 96. I'll just say my

thoughts coming to a podcast near you soon. Okay,

what do you have in number 96? My number 96,

I have an American classic. I love old like...

a lot of old Hollywood films. I know it's an

era that I think maybe is not super respected

by a lot of cinephiles, because they go French

New Wave or something like that, but I just,

something about it, I think I grew up on one

of those films. My parents loved movies from

the 50s and 60s, and maybe they are big over

the top, and maybe more simplistic than a Kira

Sauer film, but I think on occasion there are

films that transcend that, and that is the case

for my number 96 with On the Waterfront. You

know one of Marlon Brando's best performances

and it's obviously a film I've caught up or we

caught up probably again a few last year or so

and and I loved it It's just you know tale of

this guy stuck in the situation where he can't

you know It's just trying to get by you know

a moral dilemma that he's trying to get over

and it's obviously have the that most iconic

line of you know I could have been a contender

could have been someone and it's interesting

seeing that What's going on in here? You know

the economic struggle that that's occurring and

how it affects these characters and the fear

that they're under But again, it's just got that

old style filmmaking and I don't know for me

it's one of the best films of that era of the

50s and Remind you why Marlon Brando was considered

such a great actor even though he got crazy in

his later years I made a mistake because this

probably should have been on my list of shame

episode because it's been something that's been

very high on my I need to watch list that I've

never quite got to. Years ago my mom and I were

going to start she was on the Netflix plan where

you got the actual discs in the mail and we were

actually starting a process of we were going

to go through some films that she had seen as

a child or growing up, you know, at younger ages

or maybe some stuff that she had missed. It was

kind of going through like the AFI's top 100

films and unfortunately we didn't get through

very, I think we got through maybe like six or

eight of the films and On the Waterfront was

one of the next ones that we were going to get

to and we just never did before I moved out and

it's ever since then been very high on my list,

but I haven't seen it so I need to add that.

I need to bump that up on my queue. Yeah, I would

I would definitely recommend it. I think I could

see you enjoying it quite a bit Awesome. All

right, Matt. That means we are on to the final

five here of today's episode What do you have

at number 95 you ready to hate me Kevin? I'm

always ready to hate everybody. My number 95

is the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers movie Ivan

ooze he's gonna take over everyone in town using

Jack and then make them walk off a cliff. This

is his end game as an intergalactic space villain.

He has created a children's toy that's going

to make all the kids and adults in the town walk

off of a cliff. But don't worry, the Power Rangers

have employed a fire hose to push everyone back

away from the cliff. And then also ninja kung

fu giant robot battles. It's amazing. Amanda,

agree? Yes, I love Gek as well. I would play

with that. I would be one of those kids falling

off the cliff because I would buy the shit out

of that Gek. Love me some Power Rangers. I think

that the movies... I don't remember a lot of

at all, but I could get behind the new one though.

Definitely look forward to that. Can't wait.

Can't wait. Can not wait. Fast and the Furious,

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, and Sharknado.

I have not seen Mighty Morphin Power Rangers,

so I couldn't intelligently comment on it. I

remember being a kid just being disappointed

we didn't get more zords, but the truth is all

movies could use more zords on a waterfront if

they would use more zords. See? See? Shadows

of zords. That's something you could just go

back through and go classic movies and put shadows

of zords and different things into them. Alright,

so Amanda, 95. oh man this is uh i'm knocking

off all my like newer pics pretty sure and um

this is another ryan gosselin joints or not ryan

gosselin yeah ryan gosselin this is the place

beyond the pines And this is a movie that I have

only seen once. I think this might be one of

the only movies on my list that hasn't been one

of those movies that I've watched and watched

and watched and watched and watched. It's just

a one -time watch. I even bought the fucking

thing right afterwards because I needed to have

it. It just really stuck with me and it was a

movie, a film unlike any other that I had seen

in the way that was set up, in the way that it

was delivered. I loved... the shift and like

the focal points. I loved the character development.

I loved all of the consequences that each character's

actions had on other characters in the story

and how all of the stories intertwined just so.

I loved it and I was blown away by it and definitely

had to make my list. That was a film that really

worked for you and I really loved watching how

much you got behind that film. I enjoyed it.

For me, part of it didn't work as well as the

other part. But I can totally see why you enjoyed

it. And like you said, it was definitely a unique

film experience. Yes, sir. All right. That means

it is up to me for my number 95. I'm going to

go back into the 80s, 1988, directed by Penny

Marshall. And it is Tom Hanks in the movie Big.

I guess just another example of my love for both

coming of age slash films that somewhat touch

on nostalgia or how memories work or how, you

know, younger versions versus older versions

of yourself, et cetera. It was, I'm not a huge,

I was not a huge Tom Hanks fan. Growing up, I'm

much more of a Tom Hanks fan now than I was.

in my teenage years, et cetera. You mean like

Turner and Hooch? No. And Big, though, was something

that always did work for me. And there's so many

iconic scenes in that, or memorable scenes. And

I just think it's a fun film. It's an interesting

way to do a coming -of -age film. And it's something,

I am not someone who watches a lot of movies

more than once. I know a lot of you, like Amanda

especially, you watch films dozens of times a

piece. ad nauseam like you get a lot of enjoyment

out of that I don't mean that in a negative context

but for some reason I am just the opposite like

I I find it hard to watch movies twice when there's

so many movies I haven't seen once and this is

one of the ones that if it's on or if I was flipping

through and it was on I would have no problem

rewatching it so I think it has a pretty high

rewatchability Because I've been pretty sure

that that's a movie term that we all use even

though it's not a real word But I think I just

watched this on sci -fi at work the other day.

All right Definitely. I don't know what channels

I watched it. I haven't seen in a while It's

probably time for me to watch it again, but big

is my number 95 pick There's actually one that

almost through my top 100. I do love big it's

it's I remember watching it for the first time

that goes on TV or something and it just I don't

know it's Probably we watched it like if I were

to ever rank the movies that we watched the most

of my life that would have to be out there just

I find it really rewatchable and as a kid just

loving that idea of having a job where your it

was just a test toys like Like that's a real

thing so many movies like that are that you saw

when you were a kid though you you watch again

and and they just do not hold up or it kind of

ruins the memory. And I find that that's one

of the ones that just does not do that. You watch

it and you get the same enjoyment out of it that

you did as a 10 -year -old or a nine -year -old

or whatever it was. Hey, I mean, Tom Hanks was

nominated for an Oscar for that role, so. Very

true. Yeah, it's kind of like, you know, I love

Mighty Ducks, but when I go back and watch them,

I'm like, yeah, maybe not as, yeah, it doesn't

hold up as well as some other movies in my past.

My number 95 I'm also going to go with the film

from the 80s from one of my favorite directors

of all time and that of course is Martin Scorsese

which I think came up already today and maybe

going with one of maybe not his most famous films

but I think one that's becoming more and more

notable and getting a lot of more backing than

it did when it first came out. I think it was

actually not that well received when it was first

released in 1982 I believe. But I'm gonna go

with The King of Comedy starring Robert De Niro

and Jerry Lewis. It's very ahead of its time

in a way. Today we're familiar with that awkward

comedy when you're in a situation that feels

weird and strange and characters that are off

and you're not sure if you're supposed to laugh

or not. Today's day and age, we're kind of used

to that. I think of something like The Office,

where the joke isn't unheard, it's more putting

you in an awkward situation. A lot of that existed

in the king of comedy, and I think at the time,

it was... Unheard of and people just kind of

rejected it but for those that don't know Robert

De Niro plays this Stand -up comedian if that

doesn't have you excited. I don't know what does

but the thing is he's not very funny He's not

very effective, but he wants to kind of get on

television become famous in order to do that

He can naps the host one of the most famous talk

shows of the time, which is played by Jerry Lewis

and it's actually uh Jerry Lewis of you know

who people know and he was a huge star and it

gives a great performance being one of his best

performances and it's this you know situation

of very much an anti -hero that you expect with

Robert De Niro where he's this character that's

really committing a crime and it's just kind

of these crazy shenanigans he's way over his

head he he has no idea what I think he's doing

he's just trying to figure it out as he goes

as he tries to you know he seems to be you know

thinks that he can just do this kidnap the guy

and get away with it and it's just just the mindset

he's clearly some complications there but it's

actually it's funny will tell but it's also somewhat

tragic in that way but uh um you know i think

it's a film out for everyone because of that

and maybe not be Squarespace's maybe best directed

film or it's maybe not to the level of other

Squarespace films that might have my list but

I think it's quite good and really enjoyable

and its comedy elements hit me where in the side

of kind of what I find funny and Squarespace

is maybe not known for being comedic or at least

for an entire film and it's not a straight comedy,

it's very much a drama thriller but within that

or it's much more comedy in there than you would

say and I don't know a passion The Last Sensation

of Christ or something like that. This is one

of the few Scorsese films I still haven't seen,

so I definitely need to catch up with this one

and add it to the queue as well. I'd be interested

to see how I like this one. Matt, number 94,

what do you have? I have Instant Classic that

everyone has heard of. Birdemic. It's one of

the best viewing experiences I've ever had in

my life. Oh, it's it's Amazing and the sad thing

is is that like these guys fucking captured lightning

And then like they tried to recreate it and I

don't know if bird neck to ever came out But

I don't want to see it because they they're too

aware of themselves now like it's it's like a

love project of like fucking failing movie School

kids or something. They're just like Clip art

pasting birds into the sky Like there's no logic

or reason to anything I think it's like global

warming has caused birds to kill all the humans

and Then an hour later the birds just decide

to fly out into the ocean But it's got a really

cool breakdown in the middle where a guy sings

a song. It's like hanging out hanging out hanging

out with my family Having ourselves a party.

Oh man. I don't know why he sings it but it happens.

It's great Amanda, have you seen Birdemic? I

have not. Do you want to add it to our queue?

I do not. I feel we've got to ruin your life.

Dan, have you seen Birdemic? Oh, I have, yeah.

It's a great film to watch. It's one of those,

so bad it's good. And it's just the thinking

of there's a phone call the guy's on. He's going

to this like... long spiel of like I'm gonna

give him I'll give you 50 % off and then he's

like I just saw I just in the end the call and

it's like I just made a sale of a million dollars

it's like wait you just gave him 50 % off of

a million dollars it's it's it's insane and it's

the special effects are awful it's it's not a

film that you're gonna watch by yourself because

that would just be depressing but it is one that

with friends it's hilarious and then listen to

the how did this get made episode on it and enjoy

yourself because they actually get people who

were on this set and kind of explain that this

guy thought he was making a serious film. He

thought it was serious, which makes it that much

more funny. I think I know what Matt's number

one film is going to be. All right. Birdemic.

I like it. Amanda, what do you have at 94? Let's

probably... I don't know. Is this the newest

movie? Could quite possibly be the newest movie

on the list? We'll see. And it's Captain America

Winter Soldier. And this is the only straight

up comic book movie that I put on here from this

new insurgence of comic book movies. And I think

this one is definitely my favorite. I think that

the action in it, I love. Obviously the characters

and all the dynamics that they go into that,

but I think they really set the tone of how badass

the Winter Soldier is in general and how badass

some of these comic book action sequences can

be. It's not like just God on God actions, not

Thor in Asgard kind of stuff. It's more... Legit

action, like car chases and crazy stuff with

mechanical arms. More legit with mechanical arms.

I'd like to pair that up together. I don't know,

what more can I say about this movie? I love

it. It's fine. Alright. Dan, what do you think

about her saying that this is the best of the

recent comic book films in agreement? I would

say so. It's definitely in the conversation.

I might, in technically favorite, have other

ones up there higher, but I love it. Alright,

our first comic book film, we'll have to see

if any others show up on anybody's list as we

make our way through. For my number 94, I am

again going with my second pick from 2015. I

don't have a lot of 2015 and 2014 picks, but

I guess the ones I have are going to come up

here early on in the countdown. And again, I

don't know, a lot of people are saying that this

is going to be one that's going to be forgotten

over time, and I don't necessarily think that's

the case. I think this will... have a pretty

good shelf life and I'm going with Tom McCarthy's

Spotlight from last year. I just think it's an

important film. I think there's a lot of aspects

of the film that need to live on and need to...

be viewed over time and I think it was super

well done. I think as one of the best ensembles

that we've seen in recent years. Mark Ruffalo

was amazing and it wasn't my number one film

of 2015 but I think over time it might end up

being one of the more important films from 2015

so Spotlight is my number 94 pick. I think it's

a good choice. I'm kind of surprised that a movie

that's so new is on your list, but look at my

list, so I can't say shit. I like it. Yeah, I

thought it was great. I mean, I didn't put it

on my list, but it was in my top five for last

year. I think it was, you know, deserving. I

don't know if it's a best picture or so. I don't

know. I have people say it's... being forgotten.

I don't know, I feel like with what it's tied

to that it will always have a place. Like I feel

like it's, you know, to me it's almost like a

modern day, you know, all the president's been.

And I don't know if being, not getting, winning

Best Picture would almost cause it to be getting

overrated. Like it's almost more good than bad

because now it has that pressure. But I think

it's an excellent main movie. I agree, obviously,

since I have it on my list. Dan. What do you

have taking up your spot for number 94? I actually

kind of be talking about a movie that is, you

know, deals with news and newspapers and similar

with my number 94. I don't know why, but I love

movies that somehow surround news or have some

sort of news component. And we'll talk about

a lot of them as we go through the list. And

my first one is actually the movie Broadcast

News. Again, another movie from the 80s. I didn't

expect that from 1987. Pretty impressive cast.

You know, it's somewhat of a romantic comedy

as well, directed by James L. Brooks starring

William Hurd, Albert Brooks, Holly Hunter, and

there's a lot going on in this. The news is somewhat

in the background, but it's just how this broadcast

channel operates and the frictions that kind

of ensue within that and how... Stories are done

and how you kind of get ahead in this world.

It's very competitive But as someone who kind

of just likes learning about the environment

being a part of that environment I mean if you're

a fan of the show like newsroom, I guess it kind

of relates in that end It's not you know doesn't

have the Aaron Sorkin dialogue But I think it's

characters may be even stronger and it's I think

an overall unassuming film I like I said, there

is a romantic element that maybe drives some

people play but I actually I quite like it again

in A lot of part of it too is there's great Albert

Brooks performance. There's an infamous scene

with him trying to go on screen for the first

time, and it does not go as well as you could

expect it. So it has some comedic beats as well,

even though it does deal with some serious topics

on occasion. But yeah, that's my number nine,

and that's my next one. What are we, 94? 94.

94 broadcast. I'm like you, I can't explain why

I like those types of films either. I guess the

only difference is I haven't seen as many of

them as you have so I'm going to have a lot more

blind spots in that genre even though I don't

know why I haven't because I do typically like

the films that I do see that are kind of centered

on news and journalism and those types of investigative

pieces and stuff like that so I need to add this

to my list because it's a blind spot for me.

So Matt, what do you have at 93? uh... my number

ninety three is the movie that started at all

the first ever bad movie i thought of the group

of friends uh... that will forever stick with

me and that is blood rain i have not seen that

one either but i have heard of it oh it's uh...

it's called classic like it's it's full of just

nonsense every scene seems disjointed characters

motivations don't make any sense Like, they're

just bad, bad special effects. Like, someone

will get cut with a sword, and then blood will

spray, like, unrealistically. But it's not just

blood sprays unrealistically. They're using CO2

to launch a red liquid, so you get, like, a fog

of smoke come out of somebody as the CO2 is shooting

out. And it's like, wait, is that guy just full

of, like, compressed air? Like, what's going

on? Like, because he'll get cut, and then just

smoke and blood pour out of him. That's not how

it works? It's so bad. Isn't she killing vampires?

So, yes and no. The movies are very far from

the game. It's a weird situation where there's

a group of people who are killing vampires. She

is a vampire and for whatever reason she joins

them to hunt down the man who turned her? It's

like a weird situation where like... I'm not

quite sure, like it gives a weird disjointed

origin story for her, and I think it was either

a vampire raped her mom and then she was born

a half -vampire, or a vampire bit her mom and

raped her while pregnant, and that's how she

became a half -vampire. I've seen it like five

- The description of this film is more entertaining

than I think the film will be. Oh, I'm sure.

I've seen it like five times and I still am not

sure what's going on in it. Look forward to our

conversation on it when we get to that because

it's a video game movie. And the sequels just

get more and more outlandish. It's fucking good.

I can't wait till we get to play it. I remember

watching the trailer for that and seeing Ben

Kingsley and being like, who, like, what do they

have on him? How? Nice. Oh, so I've never watched

a movie with audio commentary for two reasons.

One, I just don't have time to watch movies,

let alone to watch a movie twice, and I'm not

watching with the commentary on first. But this

one has an unexplained sex scene that just makes

no sense. Like she's in a prison guarded by the

anti -vampire group, and then she makes eye contact

with the guard, he unlocks the gate, they go

in, and they just do it. And then, like, they

go their separate ways, and I think she stays

in the cell, but he leaves it unlocked. And,

like, I was like, what the fuck just happened?

And so I actually rewatched that scene, and Uwe

Boll is on the commentary. He's just like, this

is a scene that shows she is woman. Like, she

needs things, and her needs are of a woman, and

she needs this. And it's just like, what the

fuck does that even mean? I'm terrified. Oh,

this movie is great. All right, so when we watch

this for our video game series, we will be watching

it with the commentary on oh Man, that's uh that

is quite the description. I'm gonna use that

excuse You're welcome internet All right, Amanda,

what is your number 93? Oh Y 'all ain't ready

for this. We are after Matt. We're ready for

anything We're gonna bring it back home 93 spot

is holding Miss Congeniality. I don't know. Sandy

B. Joey from 2000. Are we going to have a competition

of how many Sandy B. versus Michelle McCartney?

Is this going to be like Melissa McCartney, not

Michelle McCartney? This is a 2000 movie. An

FBI agent must go undercover in the Miss United

States beauty pageant to prevent a group from

bombing the event. I think we all know what Miss

Congeniality is about. I actually don't and I

want to see it now. It's got Michael Caine, Benjamin

Brett, Sandy B. This is a legit kiss, okay? Because

of Michael Caine? William Shatner, Ernie Hudson.

You know, there's a lot of people here and I

think you need to see it. It's hilarious. They

made a sequel. I've seen Miss Congeniality. It's

just one of those movies that I loved in this

time period. I love the little transformation

scene where they give her a makeover. I love

her comedy in this. I love all the tune that

she has. I think every time I see her as a cop

after this, I'm like, but she's not Gracie Lou

Freebush. So Kevin's got his head in his hands.

moving right along. It's not blood rain. I don't

know if it's worse or better. I don't know. Matt,

please, please. I haven't seen blood rain yet.

I've seen Miss Congeniality. Blood rain has a

sporting shot at being better than Miss Congeniality.

Oh my god. Yay. Dang. All right. For my number

93, I'm going to kind of lump two films from

a franchise in together here. But the one that

I will go with is the most recent one of that.

And it's the more recent reboot of the Planet

of the Apes film. So I will go with Dawn of the

Planet of the Apes from 2014, directed by Matt

Reeves. I like Rise and Dawn a lot. I guess I'd

slightly put Dawn ahead. But I just had to have

this newer version of this be represented because

it not only They're not only good films to me,

but I think they opened my eyes to the whole

franchise in a way that I hadn't been able to

take, not take serious, I guess is the wrong

term, but I had never been interested in old

films. I had never really had any desire to watch

them. And through these, I went back and watched

all the old ones. And there's a couple of good

ones. There's a couple of really bad ones as

well. But it was a fun trip to rewatch all of

those Planet of the Apes films, and it wouldn't

have happened without this reboot. And I just

think, from a technical standpoint, the stuff

that they've achieved in these two Planet of

the Apes films has had a huge impact and effect

on Hollywood and what they're able to do with

motion capture and some of that stuff. And Andy

Serkis and Topee Keble are amazing, and I think

they've changed the landscape, I think, for some

of these. visual modes. So a huge fan of the

new rebooted Planet of the Apes franchise and

I had to represent it somewhere so that's where

it comes in here for me at number 93. Dan? Yeah,

I love those movies as well. I mean I debated

putting them on here but I couldn't really find

a spot. I used to have the original Planet of

the Apes move online but it's kind of... Falling

out as things have gone, but for my number number

three I do actually have a another classic science

fiction film from the from the 70s and It's I

don't know I get something about it. It's very

old -school 70s science fiction that appeals

to me, and it's the a drama to strain it's we

like Kevin thinking might be interested in because

it does almost feel like an extended episode

of the Twilight Zone and it's basically this

rock of some sort falls into this town and there

may be some sort of disease attached to it and

they're these scientists that really get put

together in this bunker and they're trying to

find a way to fight it like a cure, you know,

to this potential disease that will wipe out

of all earth. It's very much a procedural on

that end where it's just them trying to come

up with a way to stop this thing from happening,

from it kind of destroying the world and it's...

You know, though it has these high stakes, it's

really, again, a low -key movie. And like I said,

it almost feels like you could do this as a TV

movie or an extended episode, like an X -Files

episode. But it's just, I don't know, it's something

about it, like that feel of those 70 science

fiction films or late 60s science fiction films

that appeals to me. And it's just, I love its

approach. It's kind of methodical pacing. And

I don't know, I find it quite intriguing. It's

what it's kind of movie that stuck up on me,

because by its climax, I'm like, wow, I'm much

more interested in this than I thought I would

going into it. And I just thought it would be

kind of cheesy and over the top. And at moments

it is, but it's actually ends up being a lot

smarter than I anticipated. So the un -drama

is strange for me. All right, you're just adding

a whole bunch of films that I need to see if

they're streaming are any way, shape or form

available. Yeah, that one I don't know. I don't

know how well it appealed to a greater audience

because it is heavily dated. I think it, but

like I said, if you go in with it thinking it's

like an extended episode of Twilight Zone, maybe

you'll enjoy it more. So, I don't know. Awesome.

Alright, only a couple picks left for us on this

episode. Matt, I can't wait to see where you're

going with your number 92. Number 92 everyone

who knows me even a little bit knows it's on

my list. It's probably a little Again, are we

said high or low which one like It should have

been a lower number It should have been higher

in my list, but I tried to reserve my last ten

for bad movies There are five that people will

probably say are bad movies that are not in the

top in the first ten But that is the room Tommy

was so... Oh, I thought this was going to be

your number one. No, no. It's not that good.

It's not even this good. But I would be a phony

if it wasn't on my list. Tommy Wiseau's director

debut before he, you know, became famous for

his other joints, such as the neighbors. It's...

It's just a bad movie made with a you know a

low budget But it's like all one guy paying for

the whole thing and just making it up as he goes

along Because he wanted to be a movie star and

that was his dream and he fucking manages to

do it in his own weird Esoteric way. It's a Crappy

movie that makes no sense at a lot of times and

like thing people just say things like well I

definitely have breast cancer and then that characters

there for the whole movie and never once mentions

the cancer ever again But I mean just the story

of the movie is so much more interesting than

the movie itself like Greg Cicero who plays the

I don't know antagonist of the movie Wrote a

book about it like an autobiographical or whatever

you want to call it book about it They're even

apparently shooting a movie with James Franco

playing Tommy Wiseau. That's sort of like a docudrama

I don't know if that's ever actually happening

We always hear stuff about it, but I mean that's

like two years in the making isn't it? It's fun.

First of all, I think this is involved in the

conversation many times as the worst film of

all time. And second, I do think that you know

more about the room than anybody else I know.

and I love listening to you talk about the inside

stories about what happened during the making

and etc. from your knowledge from reading the

book and listening to the different commentaries

and this is a very, it was a very fun experience

watching this with you and Nate etc. So I have

nothing but fond memories of the room. There

we go. It's your best pick so far. Thanks. It's

also easily one of the worst films of all time.

Oh, it's so good. All right the room at your

number 92 Amanda room at your number 92 It's

not okay 92 spot I'm not really sure if you guys

have seen this but it's from 1993 and it's Dennis

the menace and it's got And this kid that I didn't

see anything else But it was one from my childhood

that my mom let me watch over and over again.

And it had one scene with a giant fart in it.

So I'm pretty sure that's why I thought it was

hilarious. But he force feeds his kidnapper an

entire pot of beans looking for a handcuff key

that fell in there. And this guy farts over a

campfire and it was ridiculous. I don't know

what's worse, the films that are being mentioned

or the rationale for why they're being included.

Dennis stays with Mr. and Mrs. Wilson. The little

menace is driving Mr. Wilson crazy, but Dennis

is just trying to be helpful. Even the thief

who's arrived in town who is the farter. I like

that you just described the premise of Dennis

the Menace like nobody has ever read the comic

or seen the cartoon. Maybe somebody hasn't, okay?

We have listeners. We don't have listeners anymore.

cute movie and had a lot of heart and he really

just was trying to help and all these serious

unfortunate events are happening just like he

breaks Mr. Wilson's teeth, puts some chiclets

in there trying to replace them for him. Lots

of cute stuff happened and it's just one of those

movies that I came back to a lot of times when

I was a kid. I'm not gonna hate on your nostalgic

pics because I definitely will have some coming

up in a future episode so Dan have you seen Tennis

the Menace? I did when I was a child I have not

seen it. It's quite some time. Apparently you

need to add that to the list of stuff you need

to rewatch very soon. I do. I am all looking

for a movie with more big farts. Who isn't? Who

isn't? For my number 92, it's going to probably

make a lot of sense that it's in the same...

segment of the countdown that my number 94 was.

For my number 92, I'm going to go with 1976's

All the President's Men, just slightly ahead

of spotlight. Obviously, this one is starring

Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman. And I think

this is a must -see, I think, for most cinema

fans, cinema geeks, especially if you do like

that style of genre and the stuff that they're

depicting. I just think it's a real... Really

well done, really well directed, phenomenally

acted. It's always interesting to see Dustin

Hoffman in some of his earlier days. I haven't

seen a ton of Robert Redford films, so that was

also an enjoyable experience. I just recently

caught up with this one within the last year.

I was a big fan of this, and I put it slightly

ahead of spotlight. That's 1976, all the presidents

met. I love that movie, and let's all talk about

it more. I like it. I like it. All right, what

do you have in 92? Well, yeah 92 I don't think

you're gonna like this movie all that choice

all that much Kevin and I don't think Matt either

so I'll make it quick and Again, 92 is probably

my first recent movie from 2014 You know movies

all people hated but I enjoyed quite a bit so

much so to put it on this list and that is under

the skin. Unique experience for me, it took me

back. Everything from its score to its unique

approach to its imagery, I don't know, it really

engulfed me in everything it was doing. I thought

within its craziness and its ambiguity, it said

a lot and I found the journey that was going

on relatively moving and it had some sequences

that have been entered into my brain. ever since

you know from you know the the ending sequence

to the sequence with uh her with the foreign

man in the car just i guess you know i know for

a lot of people hate it and i get it like it's

what a movie like i will always say the moment

i walked out that it's a movie i love but i would

probably recommend to no one because it's you

know it's not necessarily for everyone it makes

you super uncomfortable and you know if people

could hate it which is you know it's i think

aware of that but For me it worked for me, so

it's my number 92 You mentioned that Matt and

myself might not like it, but you left out Amanda

Yeah, I didn't know if Amanda started Yeah, I

don't think it was on when Matt was over Yeah,

we all watched it together But I think I was

like working or sleeping or something. I was

like I couldn't get through it I ended up on

the other side of the couch or some crazy stuff.

I was not into it Man, I don't know if you've

disliked it as much as I did. No one disliked

it as much as you did. I didn't think it was

terrible. I feel like there could have been a

little bit better visual storytelling or more

just storytelling. I thought the soundtrack was

annoying as shit but did perfectly what a soundtrack

is supposed to do. It set the mood and it kept

it and it was haunting in its own way. It's not

the worst thing ever, but it's not on my list.

And my list is gold. I like that. That's the

perfect statement. That's a clip that we're going

to use later on. Alright, that means there's

only time for one more movie for today's portion

of The Countdown. Matt, start us off with your

number 91 pick. My number 91 is a badge of honor.

It has, if you can imagine, a rotten tomato score

of 0%. We're not talking about a movie with five

reviews or ten or thirty. We're talking movie

with a hundred and sixteen reviews on Rotten

Tomatoes and an aggregate of zero percent. Oh

my lord. Roger Ebert gave this movie a half of

a star and put it on his most hated movies of

all times list. This movie is Ballistic X versus

Sever. We own this actually. I don't own this.

It takes a wee out of this version of the statement.

It's got Antonio Banderas and Lucy Lu. Yes. I

had to buy it just for that. Have you seen it

yet though? We watched it and I fell asleep.

It's a mess of a movie. It's great. I've watched

this movie, I don't know, maybe five, six times.

I can't remember where I picked it up at. Someone,

I think, gave it to me because they hated it

and they couldn't have done a better job. We

watched this movie so many times that one time

I accidentally had a component cable like half

plugged in when we were watching it and we didn't

have any red in the movie and we didn't notice

until the end credits. That's how poorly visually

designed this movie is is that it's really all

black and blue the whole movie Even the cover

is black and blue like it's just it's so Weirdly

designed like that where we had the thing unplugged

a little bit didn't get any red didn't notice

the whole movie I think it was I think it was

right before the end credits when there's like

cop lights And it's like there aren't any red

on those cop lights, and I was like wait a minute

I don't even remember the plot so much as it's

like Lucy Liu is like trying to save a child

from somebody and like she at first is fighting

Antonio Banderas and then they team up to save

the kid for a reason it's it's I don't man I've

got problems in my head movie and I just remember

enjoying it so much and watching it so many times

and I'm always up for watching it again I don't

know if I'm gonna allow that to happen in our

house because I think I'm gonna find a way to

make Amanda's copy of this disappear. Bro, I

will just dis -replay it again. I'll just bring

my own over. Oh man. I think I spent like a $1

.99 on it and I was like, Antonio Vandera's Lucy

Lu $1 .99 sold. That's what happened. Worth it.

Worth it. Amanda, you're number 91. If Sandra

Bullock's in this movie, I quit. Um, it's not,

but it's from 2001. I'm gonna let you guys guess,

okay? After his swamp is filled with magical

creatures, an ogre agrees to rescue a princess

for a villainous lord in order to get his land

back. I'm an ogre! What? He said I'm an ogre.

Yes. Dan, what did you say? Toy Story 2? No?

It is. Close, it's Shrek. I have a huge place

in my heart for Shrek. When Shrek first came

out, I loved it. I think my first date ever,

ever was to go see Shrek in the movie theaters

with my first boyfriend. And it was like my dad

had to be there still and all that stuff. So

super awkward, but I still enjoyed the movie.

Sparked a whole huge series little TV spinoffs

all kinds of stuff I even like had a hat with

the Shrek ears on it like I went a little nuts

and the music and all of them is super awesome

the voice acting the Like the the animation style

most of the humor most of the humor I don't know

I just had a lot of fun with it and it's definitely

one that I've seen a ton of times I'm gonna want

to show it to my kids if There's ever a doubt

if you should watch Shrek, just come talk to

me, because I'll probably give you some reasons.

I just like it, and it's my number one, so I'll

shut up. Number 91. 91. It even sparked a Broadway

musical. Which is awesome, by the way. Have you

seen any of that? No. Shrek Live? Oh my gosh.

I've seen pictures of the poor fella who plays

Shrek. Oh, he's legit. It'll be interesting to

see how many animated films might appear throughout

this countdown on different people's lists, so

that's one of the big... first big notable ones.

So for my number 91, also not too long ago, I'm

going to 2010. Duncan Jones, I'm a big fan of

the genre and it would be the sci -fi film Moon,

which currently has an 89 % on Rotten Tomatoes.

I'm just a big fan of this film. I'm a big fan

of films that have a limited setting or limited

cast. And this one obviously is basically known

as being a film for just having one person involved.

And it's everything I need in the science fiction

film. I don't want to say too much more about

it. I think... Most people that have seen it

will agree with me I don't hear too many people

that have seen it and have negative comments

So I'll just leave it at that and on my number

91 is 2010's Moon. That movie came up a lot on

a lot of the lists when I was trying to figure

out movies and now I'm super intrigued especially

since it made someone's list All right, we'll

have to wait and see what your thoughts are once

you get a chance to watch that one. For sure.

Yeah, it's great. It's a great film. I enjoyed

it quite a bit. Sam Rockwell can do no wrong.

So, you know, so far I've had a lot of different

movies, you know, I've had classics like On Our

Water Fund, Under the Skin, which is kind of

the thematic journey, you know, these movies

that have, you know, gorgeous cinematography

to, you know, enormous scores. some of the best

acting in the world, but sometimes you just like

to see puppets curse a lot and make funny songs

and that of course is Team America World Police.

I love South Park and I think to me Team America

World Police has a lot. It's hilarious, it has

some great satirical comedy. Lot of great lines

in the songs are freaking amazing. You know America

fuck. Yeah, you know to The rent parody it's

amazing. It's everything I love about Southwark,

but it's not it's it's in the same vein, but

a lot different It's just crazy and funny and

insane and I don't know. It's really it's like

everything just the absurdity of it But again,

it's like actually it has something interesting

to say about you know politics about celebrities

and it's just, I don't know, it's great. Everyone

has a day's, day's, day's, day's, day's, day's,

day's. Exactly. And the longest puppet sex scene

ever imagined. And if you, there's actually a

documentary. how this film was not yet rated,

they talk about that and how they did some crazy

insane things they know would be cut out just

so they can get what they really wanted to do.

So there's some even more insane deleted scenes

that they never intended to actually show, but

they just wanted it to go as crazy as possible.

So when they cut those out in PAA, it'd be like,

okay, you're fine now. So it's great. Amanda,

you're a big fan of that film as well. Yes. Yes,

I am. Did not make my list. Don't know why, but

I've seen it a ton. And, you know, they're mine,

so. All right, why don't we real quick run down
