Must admit I have little respect for this list at all. JFK at no 87. Come on, that movie was utter crud. Star Wars at number 2 !!...need I say more...I could go on but i need to Ralph

okay, i have seen 24 of those movies
I don't agree with this list though, Jurassic park number 11?!?!?!?!?! Toy Story beating the EXORCIST?!?!?!?!?! Thats a lot of bull!!

Are you sure this list wasn't compiled by someone from this Message Board??

i think i have seen about 69 of those

crappy list.

Empire voters are normally spot on when compiling this list but this years was a bit odd.

yeah, i thought some choices/order was a bit odd.

i was just interested to see if anyone had seen them all or thought other films should be in their etc.

jonny rotten>ive resolved never to watch JFK as its a complete fabrication which presents itself as fact and so perpetrates the myth about the JFK conspiracy.

Some movies in that list should be in the 100 worst movies, others are just to overrated.

As BF said, crappy list!

HAHA! Titanic isn't even included in the Top 10!!!!

Although i don't want to be a prude, that is a totally mainstream list, i certainly do not agree with some of the entries as listed by Empire magazine (i mean Psycho at number 72) and no Night of the Living Dead among MANY others.

Theres no bigger star wars fan than me but Attack of the Clones shouldnt even have been mentioned. It's above the shining for goodness sake!

Bravehart at #98 come on that movie was great, and Forrest gump at # 46 that movie was great to

It's almost like the bottom 50 were recommended by 40-60 year old real movie critics, and the top 50 were listed by 12 year olds.

amity75>Theres no bigger star wars fan than me but Attack of the Clones shouldnt even have been mentioned. It's above the shining for goodness sake!

attack of the clones is so bad.

botankus>It's almost like the bottom 50 were recommended by 40-60 year old real movie critics, and the top 50 were listed by 12 year olds

yeah - far too much star wars and LOTR

i have seen some 27 movies on that list....and i must say one of my fav. life is beautiful didnt make it......

wow, i've seen 52 of these films.

but i agree, some of the choices are a little, shall we say, controversial...
no road to perdition
no ocean's eleven
no holy grail!

but including moulin rouge, and at number 37

it's a travesty!

i have seen 93 of which only like...5...or less would be on my top 100 list

If your selection would contain only 5 of the list, I would be fascinated to browse your top 100. Should be interesting!!

I have seen like 60 and the numbering is off
Some great movies are not mentioned and others are way off

and persoanlly I think Snatch was lots better than Fight Club

Good list, I felt. And, predictably, lotr was no.1... and no.3... and no. 8...

Oh, and I dunno if anyone will care about this but this is my 400th post!!! Woohoo!!! Go me!!! And yes, I do realise that some people have posts in their thousands but still... woo!!!

t2: the best action film of all times is way down in the 70's. it should b in top 25

its Uk guys

where did you get this list? isn't your list?

It's from Empire magazine...

now that is one sTRANGE list............yeah yeah I love lotr but there is no way in hell that it could place over movies such as casablanca, godfather, schindler's list etc.
AND how did spidey beat ben-hur???????????????

* fini thinks the people at empire magazine are smoking old, moudly weed*

it was voted by the readers...

i think its more a case of favorite films rather than best films.

Woohoo!! Fightclub is on there!

how tragic that you count

well i think rotk will easily climb the list when more votes get in like in that idbm site, it will pass ttt, fotr #1 nooooo replace with rotk. Anyways its thier own opinion!!!

First time Star Wars has been beaten there for a while...

goodfellas

spiderman sucked.....its basiclly movies from now with some well known classics.....but godfather should be number one...and singing in the rain should be a lot higher cuz that movie is so good, and LOTR should be on it....but a movie needs to be at least ten years old to be a classic.....that way you kno it stands the test of time, then again like mook said, its voted by the readers...so they jus gonna pick the flavor of the week

Empire Magazine is the best!

i hate it

Some of the movies on that list really piss me off.
such as:
The damn Lord of the Rings trilogy. sure they are entertaining, but by no means would i put them on a list of the top 100 films.
Grease
Spider-Man
Titanic
Moulin Rouge
Pirates of the Carribean

Better watch it, there are some people in this forum who will hunt you down with a lynch mob if they heard you say that the movie they think is the greatest of all time sucked!! Myself not included, of course. LOL

I dont agree with the list, The Godfather not even in the top 5??
i have seen 46 of those movies, and the ones i havnt i dont suppose i would want to.
