Here are my 100 Favorite Flicks.

Before I start I have to admit that I have never seen any of The Godfather films, I have always thought that the Star Wars flicks were overrated, and I am not a fan at all of American Beauty and Gladiator and that I'm not a big fan of schmoe favorites Memento and Pulp Fiction.

Since there are half a dozen threads with a similar topic (TOP 100 MOVIES) in this forum at the same time, we've decided to close them all in the hopes of letting other list topics through. We've also created ONE BIG THREAD for everyone to add their TOP 100 lists respectively. Thanks for understanding, thanks for not taking this personally and now feel free to cut & paste your TOP 100 MOVIE LIST into this new thread: http://www.joblo.com/ubb/Forum7/HTML/003254.html
