I like to see that you show some respect to Dawn of the Dead. Not too many people have it in thier lists. You have an amazing list. I was wondering if you have seen Seven Samurai?

You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? Then who the hell else are you talkin' to? You talkin' to me? Well, I'm the only one here. Who do the fuck do you think you're talking to? Oh, yeah? Ok. Back to the case: I have seen Seven Samurai, and I find it great! But I must say it`s a bit overrated. Not much, but a little. |

That's a great list Kiddo. I particularly like the inclusion of Elephant and Oldboy. I haven't seen either of those in very many lists, and they're both amazing films, two of my favourites. I can't wait to see Repulsion, I'm ordering it from Amazon soon.

That`s a cool list. Great to see Aguirre in there. What a film! Herzog on his best. From what I`v seen apart from that, I like your list a lot. Blow up is great. Have to see more of Antonioni. I`m also a fan of 8 1/2. Fellini is anorther master of cinema that I have too go deeper into, if you know what I mean... I think Brazil is a good movie, but it gets a bit too unclear and chaotic for my taste. The last film I`ve seen on your list, is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. A great first half, but it lacks the power in the second half. Still a good movie, with superb performances by the two leading men.
Other than that, there`s many on the list that I really, really want to see, including Paris, Texas, Tin Drum and Wings of Desire.

haven`t seen Pat Garret yet, but I love Peckinpah myself. Straw Dogs, The Wild Bunch, Cross of Iron: All near or complete masterpieces, including Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia. But this director ain`t everybodys cup of tea |

I really have to have seen a film about 5 times to know and think of it as a favourite. Replayability is one of the biggest things about a film. Out of these films I've only seen happiness, sonatine and oldboy 5 times or more. Then I'll just need to see about 1000 more great films and then some decisions can possibly be made, when some are made, I'll mention it ;D
