Should have replaced "Cloverfield" with "Natural City"

and should replace "A Clockwork Orange" with "Save The Green Planet!"

I have seen 35 of the films. Best is Metropolis—the girl in the Moon (German wasn’t on the list)

Gattaca should be on there. Several movies should not be on that list.

did you ever see the anime version of Metropolis?

It wasn’t bad at all, as those things go.

33 for me. But I wish I could get back the time I wasted watching Cloverfield! And why is ‘I Robot’, ‘Enemy Mine’, ‘Heavy Metal’ and “Robinson Crusoe on Mars’ and ‘Serenity’ not on the list?

Maybe she should have not done a couple of them too

She should buy up every copy of "Senior Trip" and erase them. lol

Silent Running was way cool

Watching Bruce Dern nuke himself was worth all the caterwallin of Joan Baez.

I admit, I love Terry Gilliam.

I never heard of the ones I didn't see so I'll have to check them out. (except for Akira which is an animated film and I hate most animated films especially the Japanese ones)

I also have seen “Metropolis”. It was one of the few I actually ordered on Netflix when my Daughter gave subscriptions as gifts.

Most of the ones I have seen were simply because they were on TV and I was half way watching them and doing something else.

Oh, and BTW, I would put Anne Francis as she looked in the 50s up against any girl.
