Funny side note about Evil Dead 2. In Germany, where I live, the german title they gave the film actually translates to: "Dance Of The Devils 2: Now they dance even more!" which I always found so silly. Why give the movie such a long title and such a silly one, as well?

James and Mike make my childhood feel relatively normal, because not only were we all born in 1980, but we seemed to all be obsessed with videogames, science fiction (nothing new there)...but old movies too, which none of my friends really were. Right out of the gate, he picks War of the Worlds as #50, which I happened to be obsessed with from probably the age of 4 or 5 when it would air on Halloween. I remember I wanted to rush home from trick-or-treating so that I could watch it. Ever since, it's become my Halloween tradition, even to this day. All in all, a pretty solid list. If I had to choose my Top 10, it would be something along the lines of Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Back To The Future, Robocop, Total Recall, Predator, Aliens, Alien, E.T., Fight Club, Memento, War of the Worlds, The Time Machine etc.

Back to the Future Part 2 is my favourite BTTF movie. Just because of how it uses time travel, with the future, an alternate timeline, going back to the previous movie, having alternate versions of characters meeting one another. Also can we just admire Thomas F Wilson in those movies. He plays adult bully Biff, young bully Biff, adult wimp Biff, old man Biff, adult evil rich Biff, Griff, and Buford.

The Woof Man.

On your list, so far, mine would include: Evil Dead 2, Plan 9 from Outer Space, Scarface, Groundhog Day, and Psycho. My top 9 would include Vertigo, Rear Window, Silence of the Lambs, Lawrence of Arabia, Gandhi, Titanic, Goodfellas, Casablanca, and American Psycho. I pretty much like all of those films the same depending on my mood, sorry for OCD people that I couldn't round it off to 10.

I agree with James in the beginning. There isn't a lot of movies that have been made in the past 15 years that are love-able to the point where it becomes one of your faves.

James, I know you won't read this, but you need to watch Whiplash. It's very similar to Full Metal Jacket in that the meat of the movie is the amusing but horrific and profane bullying of the main character. Watching JK Simmons scream his lungs out like a drill sergeant is legendary.

GasMaskedGaming While there were aspects of that film I liked, (the editing, cinematography)I felt it misrepresented what jazz is about, and made it seem like it requires a strict militaristic discipline, instead of creativity and improvisational skills, to become a professional jazz musician.

[@snowblind9551]

The film wasn't about jazz, it was about what happens if a musician (or any artist really) gets too obsessive and determined with their work. Yes, Andrew pushed himself enough to become a legendary musician, but he pushed himself so far that his passion for jazz is permanently dead. A pyrrhic victory.

I just finished watching the cabinet of dr. Caligari. For such an old film that is almost 100 years old, its very good

I bet James will have King Kong and It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World for the top two.

[@LarryLopez91]

Manic8anorexic I think I remember on a James and Mike Monday (or some other video) where he said that Mad mad mad mad world was indeed his favorite movie.
