Good batch of films there. Wish United 93 was higher, but I can live with that placement. Shout out to the person who ranked it #1!

How were the points counted? Your #1 gets 25 points, #2 gets 24 etc. What about the 26 to 50 movies?

Thought Azkaban would make it into the top 50. Welp.

Now that's a great batch of films. Prisoner of Azkaban is the one really great Potter film, all thanks to Cuaron's style and vision. I watched A.I. recently and was floored by its emotional power and intelligence. Shaun of the Dead is one of the funniest films ever made.

Prisoner of Azkaban still remains the only HP movie I ever feel the urge to go back and re-watch. AI is very imperfect but admirably ambitious and I sorta love it. Recently re-watched the Squid and the Whale and it held up pretty well, maybe a bit slighter than I remember it being but still a great divorce drama- better than Marriage Story. Shaun of the Dead is obviously a classic and placed pretty highly on my list. And Atonement...probably needs another watch. Great techs and a wonderful performance from Ronan, but I wasn't blown away by anything else. I've embarrassingly never watched Master and Commander all the way through. I need to get on it asap.

Great to see The Proposition made it- top-notch Aussie Western that just missed my personal list. Nick Cave needs to write more screenplays. Preach. I hoped it would be higher but I'm glad it made the cut.

Adventureland is wayyy too high. It seriously outranked Casino Royale?

Great batch of films this. Wonderful that Adventureland made it. Dancer in the Dark is also fantastic (somehow I seem to have forgotten about it when making my list), glad it made it.

I watched Adventureland for the first time like two weeks ago and it took me approximately half a second to understand why a handful of MAR users love it so much. Indeed a very good film though

Casino Royale is such a masterful film - the best Bond by quite some distance. Dancer in the Dark...I'm still shaken to this day.

I need to rewatch Adventureland. Thought it was pretty average in 2009 although maybe I missed the nostalgia that some people connected to.

Good thing A.I. and Casino Royal are in. Although I wish CR was quite higher.
