??

omar how did u score if ppl combined lotr or kill bill or w/e this (37. War of the Worlds/Munich) means

j0rdan the answer is yes, you did not think wedding crashers was the best movie since 2000

YOU'D BE SURPRISED

yeah, mine was bottom to top i guess, the numbers are for the points not the ranking

tbh w/ that wotw/munich one i just split the difference. even if munich got the full four points it would have been in the same spot.

this is making me so ;_; I should pay more attention to ilx polls/voting more often especially for something as zeitgeisty as this

omar how did u score if ppl combined lotr or kill bill or w/e this (37. War of the Worlds/Munich) means - ftr, this is how my ballot was originally formatted. Regarding LOTR & Kill Bill, I changed my votes to ROTK & KB1 respectively, as reps for the larger group. In retrospect, I should have voted FOTR instead.

THANKS AMERICAN GOVERNMENT FOR MAKING ME FORGET THAT MY VOTE CAN ACTUALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE

i feel bad for not voting, i could have just picked something i sort of liked to fill it in and not taken myself so seriously :)

that's what I did!

haha my two biggest disappointments are that a) no fatih akin movies placed and b) no statham movies placed wtf ilx.

no joke butterfly effect is an ~amazing~ xp <3 u ashton <3 u amy smart <3 u scary fat dude. i do like transporter 2 but transporter 3 kinda loses the magic a little

the directors cut ending omg

Just watched The Others for the first time this week. liked it more than the other "The" movies it's aping, Innocents and Haunting.
xxpost

agree trans 3 is no good

I was very surprised by the fact that I liked The Others - was totally setting out to dismiss it when I saw it, but it was a finely crafted creepy movie, and totally worth putting with stuff like The Innocents.

Kinda surprised how many Nicole Kidman movies i loved this decade tbh

It's great to see all the different choices on these ballots! So far the one that overlaps most with mine is jaymc's (with 14)

u have the one that overlaps the most w/ mine (7) but its the rest is p different from my taste

still haven't seen a lot of yours, lamp....edge of heaven, transporter, martyrs, night watch, head on, pulse, crank, plus 7 more. psyched to see some of these

was really hoping to get -something- by claire denis on the list. i forgot 'american psycho' was 00s, it's really good. there are a ton of films i haven't yet seen so i almost didn't vote! i haven't yet seen 'esther kahn' and 'a christmas tale' by desplechin, and i bet the assayas films i didn't see were the good ones (not a big fan of 'demonlover' and got tired of 'boarding gate,' never finished watching that).

daria - i wonder if you and i were the only ones to vote for mooladé.

i wonder. i was hoping sembene would get some credit. i know african cinema in general doesn't get a lot of attention but this person made a list and some of the complete films are on youtube, so.. more things i plan to watch, when i find the time. iirc a number of filmmakers in west africa got started from going to film school in the soviet union actually. but the infrastructure often isn't there to support filmmakers..

Films that I should've voted for, but completely forgot about: Eureka, King of Kong. Also, I was pretty sure I had Together and Children of Men in my poll, but it looks like I didn't, whoops! Next time I should spend more time coming up with my list.

I was kinda surprised that no Kim Ki-Duk movies made it into the top 100. I thought he was one of the director finds of the 00s.

king of kong is amazing

Kitchen Stories is great.

my top 25:

Children of Men – 40pts placed 2nd
District 9 – 39pts
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy – 38pts 45
Memento – 37pts 18
Pan’s Labyrinth – 36pts 28!
Team America: World Police – 35pts 79
The Bourne Supremacy – 34pts 34
In Bruges – 33pts 74
Napoleon Dynamite – 32pts 94
Machinist, The – 31pts
Dirty Pretty Things – 30pts
City of God – 29pts 10
Slumdog Millionaire – 28pts
Snatch – 27pts
High Fidelity – 26pts 96
Traffic – 25pts
Lord of War – 24pts
Fubar – 23pts
40 Year Old Virgin – 22pts 49
24-Hour Party People – 21pts 38
Downfall – 20pts
Lord of the Rings: Two Towers – 19pts
The Bourne Identity – 18pts 40
Sin City – 17pts
Little Miss Sunshine – 16pts
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind – 15pts 3

where they fınnıshed ın bold. mock away.

Hmm, looks like only 7 movies in my ballot made it to the top 100, I wonder if anyone had a lower number? Maybe I should've gone for tactical voting after all...

Kitchen Stories is great.

It is, isn't it? I think if more people here had seen it it would've had a good chance of making it to the top 100, it's the sort of movie I think a lot of ILXors would love.

i love kitchen stories

I think the thing with Kitchen Stories is the same for Songs from the Second Floor - not enough people saw it, or maybe they did but they saw it too long ago to remember it well.

I was gonna say exactly the opposite. Since every scene - except one - in SFtSF has an umoving camera shooting the scene from mid-to-far range, and each scene is arranged and composed like a (moving) painting, I'd say a lot of the details are lost if you watch it on small screen. Like the final scene at the dump: if you watch it on a small telly or a computer screen, you probably have to squint your eyes an awful lot to see what's going on. But I've only seen it at cinema, so I can't say for sure if the movie makes sense on the small screen. And I guess it's better to watch it like that than not to watch it at all.

ok, seriously, am I the only one who rates no man's land????

i like it, it was on my list of also-rans.

i watched "Shotgun Stories" tonight based on seeing it on a ballet & liking how it sounded. it was really good!

good double feature with bullet ballet

yeah, shotgun stories is great, was on my shortlist

It deserved more than one point from me in retrospect.

Also having rewatched the bourne movies today Supremacy should have been higher on my ballot and Identity shouldn't have placed anywhere on the list at all.
