In NO particular order -

2. Fight Club
3. The Shawshank Redemption
4. The Nightmare Before Christmas
5. About a Boy
6. Moulin Rouge
7. Gladiator
8. The Village
9. The Dark Knight/Batman Begins
10. Mean Girls
11. Lord of the Rings
12. Star Wars (not including dreaded prequels, naturally)
13. Indiana Jones
14. Spiderman (not including 3)
15. Beauty and the Beast
16. The Emperor's New Groove
17. The Hunchback of Notre Dame
18. Evil Dead/Army of Darkness
19. The Mummy (only the 1st one)

If I made a list of all the ones I like that didn't make the list... it would go on forever.

I encourage you to make your own list.

  1. Here is a review from a certified "Batmanologist" of the first Batman movie. (He later posts a review of the second one, also, that is even more dead-on).

  3. Janee, I loved what your link had to say, "There isn't a single theme. It's not even that he got the themes wrong; there just isn't a theme. It's a series of events that occur with the flimsiest of motivations." So true!

    Grant, if you mean The Mummy III as in "Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" then never see it. If you meant "The Scorpion King" then see it. That movie is awesomely terrible.
