LU's Top 50 Movies - 2009 Edition

[Misanthrope]

This ended up fizzling out last year, which was entirely my fault. But 2009 has rolled around and it's time, once again, to compile votes for League Unlimited's most popular movie.

I'm asking that each of you rank your favorite 15 movies in ascending order. So your favorite movie of all time should be at #1 and your fifteenth favorite should be at #15.

When all's said and done, I'll tally them up and begin a count-down. Fifteen movies in ascending order. It's that simple!

Have at it

 

[elyod138]

1. Blade Runner
2. Lost In Translation
3. American Psycho
4. Buffalo '66
5. Amelie
6. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
7. Donnie Darko
8. f**king Åmål
9. Annie Hall
10. City of God
11. The Royal Tenenbaums (it's hard to pick one Wes Anderson film)
12. Princess Mononoke (ditto Miyazaki)
13. Before Sunrise
14. Oldboy
15. The New World

I can probably list another 50 that could have easily made it.

 

[Misanthrope]

Just so I don't misinterpret, Lost in Translation is your #1?

It was, they are all pretty close though, 20 minutes later Blade Runner is now my number 1 lol.

I won't edit it anymore though.

 

[Misanthrope]

Edits are fine, just as long as you post in thread to let me know so I'm aware.

Just as long as you know that they'll be awarded points based on where they appear in your list all the same.

[Tommy Smith]

Alot of people like the Green Mile.

I also thought it was an excellent film but at the end i kind of felt depressed by the experience.

Spoiler: Green Mile Spoilers

The polite French fella gets fried in horrific fashion, the big black guy also gets fried and then Tom Hanks has to suffer a cruelly long life. Basically all the movies good people get shafted. Depressing!
