which movie list do you prefer? (1 Viewer)

[David Hobbes]

Which list of movies would you prefer to watch? I was in a movie draft on another site and this is my first round matchup. (not telling which list is mine)

Just curious what a site of home theater devotees thinks about the choices?

thanks.

I would be happy watching either list, but would have to give the edge to the first one even with "Million Dollar Baby" included.

Raiders, Reservoir Dogs, and Star Wars put it over the top IMO.

 

[george kaplan]

Both lists have a number of great films (Fantasia, The Seventh Seal, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Bringing Up Baby, Memento, The Big Sleep, etc.), and both have a few I don't much like, but the presence of All About Eve and Do the Right Thing make it very easy for me to vote for list #1. (sorry, if list #2 is yours ).

 

[Larry Sutliff]

Both lists are great, but I'd gravitate slightly to list #2.

 

[Linda K]

I'd go with the first list. Love every one of them!

 

[Bill McA]

Mithrandir

 

[Elizabeth S]

B-Fly

 

[Lew Crippen]

#2--even with a couple of clunkers. The 70s is not well represented in either list.

 

[Claire Panke]

Erm...sorry fellas: neither.

There are some great films, some so-so films and some bad films in each list so I'll go with my own choices. No offence intended.

 

[David Hobbes]

wow. your tastes are much different than mine then, but maybe that's because you are a female?

my list is Mith's..and i am curious which movie (other than the acquired taste of Clerks) is a clunker on my list? Sure everyone has different taste in movies but other than Clerks, every movie on my list is a 3 or 4 star movie based on numerous polls and reviews.

and thanks for the opinions
