    Top Gun

    Episode 86: BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S

    The Mickey Rooney stuff is hysterically garbage but too small a part of the movie to be the single reason to say no Basically. I just can't see this as a Great Film for All Time.

    Prince of Darkness is next god damn it

    Spike Jonze

    I'd take Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, or Her (OK, I'd mostly want this one). Where the Wild Things Are is fine, but these three are beyond classic in my mind.

    Homework: Blood vs Boogie

    I predict 500 counts of "bro" and somehow tying it into Bernie Sanders

    Showgirls has got a subtle bump in reputation in recent years. Itd make for a great episode

    Episode 85: BOOGIE NIGHTS vs TWBB

    These are two of the greatest films ever made. Im going with Boogie Nights because i do watch it more often, and because its the sort of film that you recommend to someone and they ask "really? i should watch that?" Furthermore, I want Boogie Nights to win because there should be a second chance episode sometime (right?) and I want both of these films in. If There Will Be Blood loses, i think itll be more likely to be voted into that Second Chance episode than Boogie Nights if Boogie Nights loses.

    Episode 84: RE-ANIMATOR

    i voted yes out of horror solidarity. I had no larger reason than that.

    Homework: Blood vs Boogie

    i wonder how often the word "bro" will appear in this episode

    Episode 84: RE-ANIMATOR

    I would blame that first on the design of that site compared to this one

    Favorite and least favorite movies in The Canon

    I'm not so sure it's dislike of Chi-raq so much as how it's not Canon. I liked Chi-raq but I honestly think if that episode happened a second time, Creed would've won (as it should have). Still surprised it lost.

    THE BROOD vs POSSESSION

    I saw both for the first time after becoming a seasoned horror fan. The Brood was very nice, but Possession completely kicked my ass. I consider it one of my all time favorite movies period, and moreso up there like Cronenbergs true masterpiece The Fly... which should also be in the canon....

    Homework: Blood vs Boogie

    This is gonna hurt, but I must admit I have a lot more fun watching Boogie Nights

    Andrei Tarkovsky

    Solaris is my favorite movie that I absolutely cannot finish in one sitting
  24. plenty of film people still turn their noses from horror. no way around it. i dont even think Friday the 13th fans would call you blasphemous for not liking those movies. Only part 6 comes even close to being a great movie and the funnt thing is that - as weird as some of the places theyve tried to take those movies - 6 is basically the generic ideal of a Jason movie
  25. how dare you imply this isnt really good! i dont know how to answer this question as i really dont believe in the idea of "guilty pleasures" or anything like it. I think if you enjoy a movie you can find a way to stick up for it. I guess i enjoy Jason X more than most people - its not serious at all and its twice as good as part 5, 7, or 8
