Redcafe Top 100 Movies: this time we're going to pull it off, honestly
- Thread starter R.N7
- Start date

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran are here to talk about a frustrating 2 points dropped at Crystal Palace. They then discuss the regeneration of Old Trafford. Finally, Nik is joined by special guest Michael Statham from the Football Oranje podcast - who gives us a more in depth look at our EL opposition FC Twente, and then runs through the (many) Dutch connections currently at United.
I seriously cant believe @Revan would take the piss out of someone's film tastes and then post a list with Matrix and 2 LotR films in the top 3.
It is Star Wars, ignorant.
@RedPed don't worry pal, my list will get more stick than yours I'm sure.
Oh yeah Star Wars sorry!
Thanks @LuisNaniencia. I couldn't give a flying feck what some joker thinks. I like how he's included the directors to make his list seem more credible. Probably got that list from IMDB anyway.
What's the concept? How many movies are we supposed to list? Has this even started yet?
Forrest Gump in the top 40 is more alarming, amirite.
100. Kinda.
Its why I asked near the start of the thread whether it's films we personally love or films we consider to be great and people were questioning whether there's a difference.
Home Alone will be high on my list as it's the first non animated film I saw in the cinema but people will look at that and think I just love watching Joe Pesci slip on micro machines.
Ah yes, I remember the first. No one could be arsed and it ended up with 4 or 5 Scorsese films in top 10. Still better than the next top 100 list though.
Yep. @Revan included a load of brilliant films and then consciously placed The Matrix and two Star Wars films ahead of them. That's almost deliberately insulting.
*shakes head sadly*
On what basis would you consider a film to be great unless you personally loved it? My movie choices were based on reasons similar to yours. When I watched Starship Troopers at the cinema, I was blown away as I hadn't seen a film like that before. The way the bugs were done was just way ahead of it's time and still stands up today. That's why it's in my list. But if you're just going to compile a list as to what is considered great, I could do that with my eyes closed or just go on IMDB.
Do what you have to do. We love different films for various reasons.
Who doesn't love that?
Me. I regarded Macaulay Culkin with contempt as a child.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Secret of the Ooze, however...

Think I only was only really old enough to be aware of him when Richie Rich came out. Stain on the back catalogue.
way too many, i'll go with 20 maybe
It's just enough.
Deserved to be fecking kidnapped anyway!
Just be ready if I submit a list Teen Wolf is getting 1 vote (just a one pointer but it's getting a vote damn it).
Well, it's better than Wolf of Wall Street.

Did not think I would see this in any list , good man, I also like the one with Patrick Stewart, but the George C Scott one is the best
24. 53. 64. and 80 are worthy additions.
Papillon is the only film in there that I consider a turkey, it's a pretty decent list otherwise.
Mr. Roberts will probably end up topping my list
Guess I am not as shit at liking movies as I thought
To be honest, I think I'll be the only person who has more than 10 Pixar movies in my top 100. And probably 20-30 animated movies in total.
Which do you think is the best? Wall-E or the first Toy Story IMO.
hard choice , seen both many times, but Toy Story gets it for me , but only just, I also think Cars is not far behind them.
Definitely Wall-E, the first half is just immense.
I was never that big on WALL-E, even though it's objectively a very good movie. Love Toy Story though, absolute classic.
see you have me changing my mind now, it is that close.
Lucky my kids love them both, but have to be honest I have watched them on my own.
