Somebody named ‘A Beautiful Mind’ upthread, I agree.
I like movies based on Broadway musicals, so here’s a vote for ‘Chicago’.
LOTR, obviously (from the Hobbit Hole).
‘Gladiator’.
‘A Beautiful Mind’ was listed in #101.
Wow, I'd like to see your list.

Miami Vice has 2.
No country for Old men......what was that movie about anyway? I thought it was poorly edited, the story did not follow logical steps, and the last half hour was stupid beyond belief. I actually liked it for over an hour, then they got cute and lost me. The mark of a good movie is, whould you watch it again. I would never want to watch it over, and tell everyone I know to avoid it.
Wall-e
Star Trek
The Incredibles
Slumdog Millionaire

Saw it the night it came out. Friday. Great, great movie.
IMHO, that’s a pretty violent movie for a 12yr old.
Mickey should have won the Oscar.
Made up Hollywood nonsense.
