And your next Top 100 compilation is...

[Giganticface]

All worthy, no objections.

[roshiq]

Dog Day Afternoon
One Flew over...
To Kill A mocking Bird
Vertigo
Saving Pvt. Ryan
12 Monkeys

Definitely the above six are worthy for the Top 100 but I'm not so sure about the rest.

I think I know where you're coming from. Holy Grail wasn't on my radar, but yet I quote it and Spinal Tap, and play their audio clips on my radio show often. There's a reason for that. They are at the top of humor film making art form.

Just personally speaking I wouldn't count a film as one of the best ever just because its funny and quotable

I would be okay with all those choices, though I am not familiar with Dog Day Afternoon.

I personally would neg vote:

Dog Day Afternoon
Edward Scissorhands
Pulp Fiction
Saving Private Ryan
The Terminator
12 Monkeys

Good movies but not Top 100 for me.

Edward Scissorhands maybe not but Terminator is one of the best sci fi action movies and Saving Private Ryan is one of the best war movies ever and an extremely emotional and fantastically shot film.

Pulp Fiction was a whole new way of filmmaking and launched Tarantino's career pretty much.

Never seen Dog Day Afternoon or 12 Monkeys so can't comment on those

Terminator was good, I always liked the gritty feel and the story and if this were a Top 100 of Sci-Fi films, it would be in there, but Top 100 from all genre's, I can't do.

Saving Private Ryan was good for the first 20 minutes in showing what combat is like, but after that I don't feel it offered anything. Come And See or Das Boot were far better War movies. Kubrick's Paths Of Glory & Full Metal Jacket gave us something completely different and I would pick both over Saving Private Ryan.

Pulp Fiction definitely launched Tarantino into the limelight and it was indeed a different style of film, but it doesn't stand as a "great" film to me. Tarantino has done far better and there are plenty of other films that pushed into new boundaries that stand out better as films in my mind.

Well we don't have to pick just one to represent a genre or filmmaker. Saving Private Ryan showed us the emotional toil that war took on the soldiers. Not a lot of war movies do that as well as it did.

I would say Platoon did that at a much more raw, edgy, disturbing and hard-hitting level than Saving Private Ryan.

See, I didn't get that at all from Saving Private Ryan. It felt like the bubble gum version compared to something like The Deer Hunter.

Platoon I could see being in a Top 100.
