I've seen 15, didn't bother rolling. It's a damn good thing I have no shame about spouting memes without knowing where they're from, or I'd be hopeless.

41, and I'm not a moviegoer.

The Illusionist is an excellent date movie, fyi.

I should probably have my head checked, because I find myself in complete agreement with Nikov.

I've seen 36 of them. I disagree with only a couple of items from the ones I know about. My number would probably be closer to 50 if I'd seen all the films on this list I want to watch, though.
71. Avatar    This should not be here. EVER!!!
Yes it should. Avatar is like nothing before it, a beautifully tragic film about the life, betrayal, and death of Humankind's savior, Colonel Miles Qurartrich. I genuinely believe that he should be considered the real protagonist of Avatar, as the story revolves around him more than it does Jake Sully.

Watched Crank, 'twas quite a fun adrenaline filled haze of guns, tits, and car chases. Time to watch Crank 2! Any opinions on the sequel? I've seen reviews that say it's utter garbage, and others that say it's pure gold, and there doesn't seem to be any middle ground.

EDIT: And the reason I'm watching these sorts of movies at 3:45 AM is left up to the imagination of the reader. But rest assured, I have good reasons! Time to go get more cocaine caffeine.

59 of them and I don't watch films much either. Of those I haven't seen some I've not even heard of, some I'm not interested in seeing, and others I want to see.

Crank 2... as if crank ended in a way that allowed a sequel with the same character.

Unless of course they don't fit properly and your feet blister up like bubble wrap.
Oh ho ho, but don't try to return the shoes, because they won't take them back once you've worn them.

I've seen 36 of them. Not bad considering I hardly watch movies anymore.

Also, the fact that Unforgiven is not on the list is...

*puts on shades*

...unforgiveable.

I actually agree with this assessment. The problem is, all the interesting and unique parts were cut from the movie, and so the movie sucks. It could have been a classic story with a unique twist from the norm, but instead they made it into this storm of painfully overdone cliches. It's only redeeming quality is the visuals, and if that has already been outdone, then it will be soon.

It doesn't have No Country For Old Men either. Perhaps we should create a Bay 12 Auxiliary List to tack onto the previous one?
