    Where would you place Spectre?

    Perhaps it’s because the first time I watched it I was on a plane ... but it really held my attention throughout

    I’d put Craig up with the best of the Bond’s ... at worst a close 2nd for me

    Oh Lord, it’s the worst of the Craig entries IMO. It was a criminal misuse of Christoph Waltz. Not as bad as Moonraker obviously, but near the bottom of the list.

    For the Craig entries it’s Casino, Skyfall, Quantum, Spectre. I do have high hopes for Bond 25. Rami Malek (Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody) will be the villain, so that’s promising.

    I don’t want to hijack the thread, but I could rattle on about 007.
    No fuckin way?


    Way.

    Moon is really, really good. I really wish it would be remade with a bigger budget. They didn't have enough money to do low/zero gravity right, so they just said, "Fuck it; it is what it is." It's fine, because the story and everything else is great, but more accurate physics would put this one way up there.

    If you like Primer (and everyone else should check this one out if they haven't), are you aware of the backstory behind it all? Shane Carruth wrote, directed, scored, and starred in Primer. The entire movie was made with a $6000 budget, yet it makes many top-10 sci-fi of all times lists. His followup movie is called Upstream Color, and it's also amazing. Once again, Carruth told Hollywood to fuck off and made the entire movie in his home state of Texas, using no-name actors and another meager budget. This time, I believe, it was somewhere around $20K. It was actually this movie that made me aware of Carruth's movies, as I was just getting into photography/videography at the time and had bought a Panasonic GH2 (Panny M43 hybrids are fucking amazing cameras for low budget/high quality video), which is the camera used to film Upstream Color.

    Also, this movie flow chart is pretty funny if you've seen Primer (click to enlarge, too big to attach here without annoying everybody).


    Other great movies I've thought of recently:

    Three Kings
    Little Miss Sunshine
    Brazil
    Dances with Wolves
    Vanilla Sky
    Magnolia
    Commando

    Pretty much agree. I dont think Remi gton Steele was that bad though. Passable movies, passable Bond. Craig was a huge improvement though.

    Funny, I absolutely love Moon and have watched many tims. I'd never once thought about the low gravity part. Chalk that up to great filmmaking with regard to script and acting I suppose.

    I enjoyed Primer very much but I won't pretend to understand it. I'll check out Upstream Color.

    Awesome list Dennis, but I could write a Teq length essay disagreeing with you on your assessment of The Living Daylights. That was classic Cold War era Bond, and I think Timothy Dalton is way underrated as 007.

    If OHMSS had cut out the scenes with Bond wearing a kilt, it would’ve been a perfect.

    You don’t wanna see the sqwad at a tuff Halo LAN party.

    No, but seriously. I had a buddy who was ranked top 5 in Halo 2 rumble pit in the entire world and he started a clan that was also ranked. Fuckers were infuriating to play against.

    The Living Daylights
    License to Kill
    Awesome list Dennis, but I could write a Teq length essay disagreeing with you on your assessment of The Living Daylights. That was classic Cold War era Bond, and I think Timothy Dalton is way underrated as 007.

    If OHMSS had cut out the scenes with Bond wearing a kilt, it would’ve been a perfect.
    Dalton as Bond could definitely work ... Craig has taken the path Dalton started down and ran with it with better support all around him.

    Bond’s in the latter half of Moore’s tenure into the Dalton range really started losing their way and were all over the map. You start looking at the movies for a mix of good and bad.

    OHMSS is just classic Bond to me that goes from start to finish and holds up the best with the period in which the movie was shot in. Bond movies SHOULDNT have psychedelic elements to it but it worked somehow and stands the test of time. Diana Rigg hands down is the best Bond female to me as Tracy ... the ending busts me up every time I see it. Add in a great turn by Telly Savalas as Blofeld and you’re hitting all the high points.

    There’s also a cult-like element to OHMSS given that it was Lazenby’s one and only ... most discredit it because of that.

    Typed out my list and then read the other posts — fuck me for leaving off Major League. So many classic lines in that movie - I’d have to include it.

    Major League is another movie, like White Men Can't Jump, that I watched about a thousand times as a kid. "Juuuuuust a bit outside." This movie and "Hot Shots" were peak Charlie Sheen.

    Bob Uecker played the play-by-play guy in Major League, and turns out he's pretty funny himself. If you haven't heard Norm Macdonald and Artie Lange tell Bob Uecker stories on Letterman and Stern, you're missing out:

    Couple late additions I forgot that I love:

    Life Aquatic - for me this is the GOAT Wes Anderson movie. Just love everything about it and pick something new up every time I watch.

    The Kings Speech: I just recently watched this movie for the second time after originally seeing it in theaters when it first came out. My God, the end gave me chills, elite tier acting.

    Midnight in Paris: Something about this dorky romcom has serious rewatchability. I also find it to be a great date movie because it's obscure and charming. Woody Allen is a perv and he makes movies to get weirdos laid, which I appreciate.

    Did not read through everyone’s list yet but made sure I haven’t posted already as not to repeat myself.

    Guarantee mine will be way off from most here 180 degrees, but that’s par for course caus my lingo seems to be not understandable by many. But here goes:

    1: Lonesome Dove—I know it’s not a movie per say but could be a long one of fashioned together. It’s the GOAT.

    Really in no particular order:

    The Outlaw Josey Whales
    PREDATOR
    Smokey and the Bandit
    Life(EM and ML)
    El Dorado
    The Good, Bad, and Ugly
    North To Alaska
    Dances With Wolves
    Rio Bravo

    Could include a few more westerns but 10’s the max here.
