My Top 100 Favorite Movies (Updated List) - Nubblies.net Forums

Ugly Bastard · 01-29-2005, 04:21 AM

I posted a similar list over a year ago. Its changed quite a bit, so I decided to update it tonight adding all of the wonderful movies I've seen since the first list, and switching around my feelings about movies I had already seen at the making of the first list. I post this more for my own benefit, 'cause I like having this list out there. But it'd be cool if someone else took the time to make out a similar list of their own. Maybe just Top 20 if you're not feeling too gumptious. Cheers.

I didn't see the Boondock saints on there, whats up with that, it didn't even make your top 100

Must have scanned right over it.

Niger Angelus · 01-29-2005, 04:30 AM

This list is awesome. It has become my basis for 'KLR movie search 2005'.

01-29-2005, 04:45 AM

I dont see Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

Ugly Bastard · 01-29-2005, 04:49 AM

You know that's a damn fine comment, FC. I've seen that movie, and I really liked it. Top 100 liked it? Eehh...there are a lot of movies on that list I liked more than FLLV, that said, I'm putting it on my Honorable Mention list right now, and next time I make an update like this, it might fit its way onto the list.

I really should see it again though, 'cause I don't remember a ton about it. Just that I felt like I was on drugs when I watched it, even though I don't do drugs.

-Ugly Bastard

Niger Angelus · 01-29-2005, 04:51 AM

I think that is the direction they were shooting for in production.

Schroeder · 01-29-2005, 05:41 AM

Now, UB, I can understand ranking up to like 20, but are you honestly ranking them past that point, or just kinda filling in space?

Oh, and Jackie Brown ahead of Reservoir Dogs? Come on now.

I'm honestly ranking them, Schroeder.

Err...no it's just totally random, which is why a movie that you like a lot is losing to a movie you don't like as much. Just a random glitch in the matrix.

-Ugly Bastard

Niger Angelus · 01-29-2005, 05:47 AM

Ok, so is it safe to say you are telling Schroeder to 'forcibly insert his opinions into his anus.'
Edit on a great quote from a great movie.

Memento Below Se7en WTF MATE?

Ugly Bastard · 01-29-2005, 05:52 AM

Man...maybe I have a different view on the world than everyone else. But everytime someone makes one of those "why is X movie ahead of Y movie...are you crazy?!? lol" posts, they're really showing their lack of ability to understand that two people can view the same thing and have a different opinion on it.

I'd love for any of you to make a similar list, because I would enjoy telling you whats wrong with it. Oh wait, nm, I wouldn't do that, because I realize that your favorite movies would be different than my favorite movies. Instead what I would do, would be to enjoy reading someone else's list, and get a glimpse into how they view the world by reading their list. Then I would thank them for making such a list.

Errr... ya forget all that shit DJ, I need to go switch those two movies around immediately...shit...what was I thinking?!?!??!?! lol roflmao ttyl brb BIOTCH!

(I'm glad you weren't being seroius in that post. I'd be disappointed to find out you're that stupid).

That was the single biggest sack of shit I've ever read you are wrong now hang yourself.

Ugly Bastard · 01-29-2005, 05:59 AM

Tying the noose as we speak... (and it's hard too, certainly harder than they make it look on TV).

-Ugly Bastard

Niger Angelus · 01-29-2005, 06:03 AM

How do you tie one anyhow? There must be a guide online somewhere.

Ugly Bastard · 01-29-2005, 06:04 AM

There is. One time when I was playing poker, I took all this guy's money, then googled him a link on how to tie a noose, and told him I thought it might come in handy for him. It was some of the best needling I've ever done.

And that is why you have Bastard in your name. Nice, I like that. I wish I was cool enough to have a chance to do that to someone. Ah well, you never know.

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 01-29-2005, 06:45 AM

Ugly Bastard · 01-31-2005, 05:02 PM

Ninja, thanks for the reply.

Cidade de Zues is a Brazilian film, better known as "City of God" in America if that helps. Same with Vita è Bella, La; an very good Italian film about an Italian Jew in WW2, better known in America as "Life Is Beautiful".

I don't know you super-well or anything, but I would wager to say that you would like the movies A Clockwork Orange and One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest quite a great deal. Check em out sometime if you remember to. Might even be able to d/l them.

-Ugly Bastard

ninjaface · 01-31-2005, 05:19 PM

Next time I'm in blockbuster, I shall consider a few of those. Up until I read this revised list, I considered myself somewhat of a movie buff. I'm sure there are movies that I've seen that you haven't but I'm thinking you have plenty more under your belt than I do. Like the other kiss-ass posts on here, I will say it's a good list. But I will go a level or 2 above that to say that your list has substance. It's not full of movies made in the last 2,3,4, or even 5 years. Not only that, but its not limited to any specific genre. So nicely done.

Ugly Bastard · 01-31-2005, 05:47 PM

Word. Thanks dawg. If I am more of a movie buff than you are, it's only because I worked at a Blockbuster for 13 months and got 5 free rentals per week and had no life. (note: not that I have one now)

Cidade de Zues is a Brazilian film, better known as "City of God" in America if that helps. Same with Vita è Bella, La; an very good Italian film about an Italian Jew in WW2, better known in America as "Life Is Beautiful". I don't know you super-well or anything, but I would wager to say that you would like the movies A Clockwork Orange and One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest quite a great deal. Check em out sometime if you remember to. Might even be able to d/l them. -Ugly Bastard

Up until I read this revised list, I considered myself somewhat of a movie buff. I'm sure there are movies that I've seen that you haven't but I'm thinking you have plenty more under your belt than I do. Like the other kiss-ass posts on here, I will say it's a good list. But I will go a level or 2 above that to say that your list has substance. It's not full of movies made in the last 2,3,4, or even 5 years. Not only that, but its not limited to any specific genre. So nicely done.

If I am more of a movie buff than you are, it's only because I worked at a Blockbuster for 13 months and got 5 free rentals per week and had no life. (note: not that I have one now) -Ugly Bastard [ January 31, 2005, 02:48 PM: Message edited by: Ugly Bastard ]
