I don't even know, that movie is classic. $%@+ it, Imma run with my 15th ballot.

I think if I would've seen Cache or Howl, things might be different. 

And DoubleJs...if I didn't update from my phone and checked my list, I think I woulda gone Eastern Promises instead of 25th Hour...Viggo killed everything.

Damn, you practically hated almost all my movies.
I understand opinions are opinions but its hard to understand someone giving Eternal Sunshine 1 point out of 14, when to many people it is regarded as one of the best movies of the decade OVERALL... especially to me...1 point? for a most certain top 5-10 movie? ouch...

Hold up...Shaun of the Dead got me as many points as There Will Be Blood, Bourne Ultimatum, Michael Clayton and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang combined?

I'm done with you JA.

I feel like he paid too much attention to the criteria of categories. Considering we did not, that might not have been the best way to go.

And 28 Days Later is absolutely science fiction.

Excellent point. Eternal Sunshine is an elite film no matter how you slice it.

J's, I LOVED Running Scared, real good sleeper, I just had no room for it.

 

[venom lyrix]

Horror over science fiction.

I don't think 28 Days Later and think, what a great science fiction film.

I'm a horror-snob though, so that's how I saw it.

I don't expect many people to like my voting.

Sorry, I'm not going to give you many points on a movie that's borderline on a genre.

If you're going to be picking movies based  on genre, I'd pick a film that's clearly that genre. Not a romance with a drama overtone.

It'd be like picking Zombieland for horror. It's not. It's a comedy. That's just me though...

Love & Basketball isn't bad, Slumdog I kind of hated, 500 Days was pretty meh, Memento was good, I hated Ocean's 11 compared to the original, Eternal Sunshine I didn't feel belonged in Sci-Fi, Casino Royale I find very overrated, Shanghai Noon sucks, and I found Up in the Air kind of dry.

Sorry. :/

I'm convinced Japan Air has not seen half the movies he ranked. His point system was absurd
