Thanks, man! Have you seen any of Oliver Stones movies?

Thank you for your thoughtful list! I love Stone, here is mine, there are some differences, obviously, but the the most relevant I think is the position of "Salvador". 10 (veneration) Platoon 8 (enthusiasm) JFK, Salvador 7 (engagement) The Doors, Born the 4th of July 6 (firm interest) Wall Street, Talk Radio, Snowden, U-Turn --- 5 (meh) Any Given Sunday, Natural Born Killers, The Hand, Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps 4 (nope) World Trade Center 3 (c'mon) Alexander

For me, the top 2 (also Platoon and JFK) could just as easily be in either order. Even though we're talking about Oliver Stone's feature films, his TV documentary series The Untold History of the United States is about as worth seeing as anything else he has done.

Born on the Fourt of July is my favorite of his, Platoon is close second. Im my opinion, Born on the fourt of July should have won best Picture in 1989 instead Driving miss Daisy.

Watch the final cut of Alexander. Much longer, much better. NBK, JFK and Platoon are his masterpieces. And Wall Street comes close. I've seen all of his movies except for the Hand, Seizure and Heaven and Earth

I’m usually a very grateful audience. Slow cinema, classic films, b movies, epics, art house, musicals you name it. I respect the work, and I don’t mind being out of my comfort zone and I love long films. I’m in for the experience. Stone is the only director who bored me every single time. Platoon being the least boring I think. That’s before I began to dislike him for his political statements.

NBK deserves to be much higher in any list of Stone films. You’re too young to remember what an outsized cultural impact that film had. I can’t imagine what it must be like to see it shorn of that context.
