Is Pulp Fiction the greatest film ever?

[Jamezz]

Well duh. It is rated R after all

Lol, well it most be top 3 in history for dropping the F word the most times.

It's impossible to actually come up with the "best" movie ever, since Movies must be rated by category! Comedy, Drama, Action, Western, etc. But if you had to come up with a couple of movies that just about EVERYONE would watch more than once.....I'd say the original "Jaws" and probably "Raiders of the Lost Ark!" That being said, you still have to break movies down into categories! However, some of the suggestions on this thread for best movie.....are so pathetically flawed, as to be beyond belief and comprehension!

......most movies have zero replay value to me no matter how great they are.

.....I'm just the opposite! I generally don't watch a movie....I haven't seen before!

True Detective Season 2 made me like Season 1 less. Now I just feel like Season 1 was pretty good, not great or anything.

ROFL.

Primer has the most intricate--well thought out, meticulous story mentioned in this thread. The entire movie is an amalgam of clues.


I challenge anyone to present a film that can rival it in those areas.

Vanilla Sky.

 

[Miggs]

****, I have to add Midnight Run to my comedies list. Prob my fave of all time. Def top three anyway. So rewatchable.

Vanilla Sky.

That's the ****ty American remake of Abre Los Ojos, which was on my list.

I love Vanilla Sky. I've seen Abres Los Ojos twice and it just feels a bit too rushed to me. I should watch it again.

I felt Vanilla Sky is a bit unauthentic emotionally compared to the original, and Tom Cruise's over-the-top performance kind of kills it.

Why insult Birdman like this?

Over the top? Not at all. He was absolutely perfect in it minus a couple cheesy parts before the accident.

 

[Miggs]

I probably agree with it being disingenuous emotionally I suppose.

Do you like Magnolia? Tom Cruise is great in that.

 

[Miggs]

Do you like Magnolia? Tom Cruise is great in that.

Yep. Though the crying in the hospital scene felt a bit over the top to me.

There Will Be Blood. I watched that stupid show for like an hour before I turned it off.

Nothing ever happened. Like a solid hour of watching grass grow. I'm surprised I hung in there that long. Who are the folks that like this show? (must be the same folks that watch golf on TV)

I watch the Masters. That's it though.
