Most Enjoyable 300 Movies

I decided to make a list of my favorite movies, but as I was doing that, I realized that I liked way too many! So I decided to do a Superlist, if you will.

I think that everyone who thinks to their self, "Self, I sure would like to watch a movie that I would enjoy." would find this list helpful.

Something else that would be fun (just to see who is reading this): respond or email me and tell me how many of the 300 movies you have seen.

That's so great, as you can see 89 of them for the first time! I'm so jealous.

I have seen 272 of these movies. I can't believe I actually counted. Plus, looking at this list makes me a little scared that I sleep next to you every night. I mean, "The Shadow"? Really? Also, Flight of the Navigator isn't in alphabetical order. Its being out of place makes my brain itch.

Greg said...

The Shadow is a vastly underrated movie. It's got all the classic elements! Let's see, there's telepathy, and.... a bomb that might blow up the city, and.......... Tim Curry! Can't beat that.

Kat said...

117... I think... But I think the list covers about every movie I've ever heard of. If you have this kind of time on your hands, why have we not played Risk?!
