My Personal Top 100 Favorite Films (More Or Less) ... So Far...
I've just compiled this list in about 45 minutes for Darkseid, so it's not set in stone (but close enough). Still, I figured that it's good enough to post here anyway.
My top 100 movies list is definitely based more on my personal sentimental value rather than what I would recommend to other folks (I would always suggest different flicks to different people based on their personalities and preferences, anyway).
Plus, I won't be posting anything that didn't have original English dialogue (that includes Japanese anime, pretty much all of Asian cinema, and any other non-English stuff I've seen). If I did, it would probably take me forever to finalize a list.
And I'm also not afraid to include hokey movies that I confess to be guilty pleasures. So it's a pretty honest look at myself as a movie-watcher.
