Ombre Vivante Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Thank God Taxi Driver is on the top 5 - as it deserves to be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Great list! Now, will titles that we felt might have fit elsewhere be eligle to nominate again? Just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Yeah . You can't go wrong with either of these lists so far , and they are unlikely to displease anyone - or very few, for sure . Voting is easier than a TT , imo , as I am as equally satisfied with my #10 as I am with #1 ,and any of the ones that don't make the top 10 are equally as good and could easily fit in too .

MindCrime Posted July 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Now, will titles that we felt might have fit elsewhere be eligible to nominate again? Just wondering. Sure, I don't see why not, as long as it applies to the specified category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 There are so much more... The Graduate, Atlantic City, La Vie Est Un Long Fleuve Tranquille... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Joe Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 It's a damned shame that I've already seen all of those movies...several times. Great list! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted July 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 There are so much more... The Graduate... I nominated Graduate and changed it to "It's a Wonderful Life" at the last minute Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lea Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I was wondering why I didn't think to nominate "Less then Zero". It was one of my favorite dramas. Theres a whole lot of others I thought of after the nominating was over. It would be very easy to make several top ten drama lists. The list we have is great. I'm happy to see 'The Godfather" took the #1 spot. It was one of the best movies ever made. I read the book when I was a sophomore in HS and then again in my early 20's. I can't count the amount of times I saw the movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenacious_Peaches Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Good job, everyone. We are awesome. Thanks to MC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted July 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Trivia: Which actors played in 2 of the films that made the top 10? Hint: Only a side character, not the main star of either film. This is a somewhat difficult question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindCrime Posted July 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Wow, you're good Four 90's movies made it in, and three of those take place in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miamisammy29 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Robert Duvall was the first one that came to my mind (Godfather and Mockingbird). But I'm sure if you dig deep, you can find several. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
