Expectations were set too high and I found it lacking both as a roguelike and a card game

13 left, took a little break but I should be on track still.

Do the rest of you watch through these in chronological order or is that just me? It's become a habit, I like watching the gradual evolution of cinema as much as the movies themselves

70's - Enter the Dragon
80's - Labyrinth
90's - Armageddon
00's - Pineapple Express
10's - Guardians of the Galaxy

Halfway through and I have definitely noticed the consistent presence of coca-cola

Joker 2: Don't Mind if I Deux nah I'm not gonna see it

Rusty Cage in Road Rash

Yeah still only 1/3 of the way done but I'll make it before November

I only noticed cause that's the one I just watched

Miller's Crossing was on the previous organized crime list. I think you could argue O Brother, Where Art Thou?, Ladykillers, Hail, Caesar! and parts of Buster Scruggs count as disorganized crime (and boy those punctuated titles sure are confusing in list form)

M. Emmet Walsh has at least 3 appearances, he's got a bit part in Raising Arizona

I have no idea how you guys do this 3-4 times a year and still manage to play games.

Gaming has certainly taken a backseat for me, it's too much to keep up with. I still have to get around to Elden Ring at some point

9/30

The glaring flaw is just that the blonde is lit inconsistently with the rest of them. But it's okay I flipped it real quick, it should be good now

(ignore the extra hand)

It's just a shitty composite, movie posters have been doing that for decades

I had no idea Winnie the Pooh was that valuable

I'm going on 4 now, just gotta get into a groove with it

yet another reminder of what TYT has become

Billy Zane

The Doors, The Strokes, The Monkees, Animal Collective, The National, Blur

Yeah I remember the cartoon being pretty entertaining as a kid

wasn't planning on seeing the sequel but good word of mouth like this might get me to check it out

there's only one surprise guest that could counterprogram Hogan

and his name is JOHN CENA

If they get a wrestler I'd sooner expect fellow Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura

A few that come to mind are Dangerous Men, and maybe Howard the Duck, though I see this list is already 80's heavy

*oh Fateful Findings is already on there, I missed that. No notes, perfect list

Has any candidate achieved any good by joining a 2-party with a specific agenda?

Trump was originally a Reform party candidate and now we have a Space Force

Damn, 7 Coen brothers movies? This list is gonna get all metaphysical and shit

The Nic Cage thing is sort of a long-term idea, a gauntlet list might not work depending on how slow I go. I think Raising Arizona will be the first time he actually appears in these topics, but if he starts showing up a bunch in future lists it might get redundant. And I certainly wouldn't blame Inviso for throwing some of his classics in the "so bad it's good" category!

Glad I finally got around to these classics, the more I see from Kurosawa the more I think he's one of the best.

I never use letterboxd so I'm surprised Harakiri is the highest-rated movie on there. I guess it just has the perfect balance of accessibility and artistry

I think the groceries were meant to be an inflation prop

I always love to see someone hauling stuff in a 90's Ranger or Tacoma. Thank you for staying the course, reasonable-size truck people

Jim Gettys is such a great one-scene villain. All my homies hate Jim Gettys.

Last year I got Tommy Wiseau to sign my copy of Citizen Kane, which he was very gracious about. He was like "oh my god amazing movie, did you LOVE it?" and drew hearts on it.

I'm glad some of us hadn't seen it, and that it still manages to impress

I think Trump might have a little crush on Kamala

Alright it's gonna be Citizen Kane, Ikiru, and then Harakiri wins the weebstakes

Trump would go full Kramnik with cheating allegations if you beat him

I can't believe Amelie is the top French film, fuckin' sacre bleu guys

I'm doing my part! I mean I generally like Pan's Labyrinth and Grand Budapest but no way am I gonna have them topping a list like this

Rooting for Ikiru at this point.

Niemann

That's why he'd be an early-game boss!

Vidal totally fits the Fire Emblem boss archetype, that's a great comparison

Ayy I managed to get my boys Lynch and Herzog in the top ten, alright

Fitzcarraldo is great, I think Cobra Verde is also right up there as far as the Kinski collaborations go. His documentaries are bangers too, maybe even more consistently than his fictional films.

Wes Montgomery - The Incredible Jazz Guitar
Al Di Meola - Elegant Gypsy
Masayoshi Takanaka - An Insatiable High
Jeff Beck - Blow By Blow
Joe Satriani - Surfing With the Alien

Show me Amelie

You know I was gonna call you out for the low ranking but I can't really argue too much with this reasoning

Admittedly it's a little inconsistent with my own taste, war films are usually right up my alley and I don't shy away from graphic content or gritty realism. I don't know if I can explain why Battle of Algiers bummed me out so much but The Ascent didn't.

That said, I do think this list is pretty high quality and the films that I'm ranking in the mid-twenties are still like 7/10 in the grand

1. ???
2. ???
3. ???
4. Mirror
5. ???
6. Passion of Joan of Arc
7. ???
8. 8/12
9. ???
10. The Holy Mountain
11. Playtime
12. The Tree of Life
13. The Ascent
14. Jeanne Dielman
15. Pather Panchali
16. Tokyo Story
17. ???
18. Persona
19. ???
20. The Rules of the Game
21. Beau Travail
22. ???
23. Three Colors: Red
24. The Battle of Algiers
25. Black Girl
26. Ordet
27. The Conformist
28. Vive L'Amour
29. ???
30. Spirit of the Beehive

I think I've got the outlier race locked up

I figured if I just left the fish in the percolator it would look like an accident...

Alright yeah back to Battle of Algiers

Sometimes I do pencil sketches based on black-and-white movies, here's one I did for Joan of Arc https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/4/489d31d0.jpg

What kinda hint is this

I'll bite and agree that it is The Grand Budapest Hotel

Ahh Tree of Life was gonna be my other guess, I had a feeling evillord liked that one.

I love the idea that Malick just used stock footage of the universe being formed

I didn't know Pennsylvania was a commonwealth until they happened to turn into a commonwealth a number of years ago and now they want to be known as a commonwealth. Are they a state or a commonwealth? I respect either one but obviously they don't because they were a state all the way and then all of a sudden they made a turn and became a commonwealth
