| Watched 11.11.11 the other day, and was disappointing and predictable, with the shocks few and far between. 1 to avoid when it comes out.
More worryingly is the form of Nicholas Cage, who has made nothing but drivel for the last few years, which is a shame, as a few years ago, a lot of his films were immensly watchable, Face/off, Snake eyes and Raising Arizona especially. Now he's done Trespass, which according to the Mirror;
"This $35m movie was pulled from cinemas and dumped on DVD in a record 18 days, after taking just $24,094 at the box office."....ouch.

Excellent. That's the spirit. It's just a bit of fun

Incredibly none of them! I did almost put FOTR in the original listing but had too many other great films to put in before it, same as Pan's. Couldn't get into [iSpirited Away[/i. I think it's just a bit too alien for me to get into as I've had the same with all the animations from Studio Gibli. I know they must be good stuff because whenever I read about one I fancy going watching one and usually I end up not liking it lol e.g. [iPonyo[/i and is [iGrave of the Fireflies[/i one of his as well? Again, couldn't get into either of them. [iOldboy[/i I'm going to re-watch. I didn't like it first time but might see more of it second time around.
Of the final five I'd say that there's probably only one of them that's guessable as the other four are a bit off the beaten track i.e. independent/world cinema (3 American, 2 from far east).

| American, not mainstream, hmm. "Herbie Rides Again"?
Seriously, I couldn't guess, I have bought a few off your list, only watched "The Wrestler" so far, didn't like it. I just never got into the character and felt that really he was were he deserved to be because he was a bit of a t0sser.
Others I will be watching include; "There Will Be Blood", "Adaptation", "The Fountain", "The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada", "4 Months, 3 Weeks And 2 Days", "Y Tu Mama Tambien".
Did you also recommend "In The Loop"? I'd forgotten about that and enjoyed it immensely.

| I thought [iGrave of the Fireflies[/i was outstanding.
Truly heartbreaking and showed up the futility of war to the max.
Pans Lab is another all-timer for me.
Don't even know if you've seen [iDear Zachary,[/i Mc, but it would be pushing for a top 5 spot in my Top of the Pops. A jaw-dropping rollercoaster if ever there was one.

You may well have done. Think it was around the time Catfish was being shown on More4 and I was looking for other quirky documentary type films. I definitely wasn't prepared for the end!

Think the Coen brothers or Aranofsky may have sneaked one of their others into your top 5.
Thought 'Amores perros' may have got a look-in somewhere in your list?

Don't really fancy watching six figure salary celebrities easing their guilt by whoring around in the name of charity tonight? Then check this out. 4 on Demand is streaming free the tragic story of Joe Frazier's relationship with Muhammad Ali.

Have to say i expected Spirited Away in the top ten. Is Before Sunrise in your top 100? I thought you have that higher than Before Sunset?

One of the best sporting docs I've seen. I was almost in tears the first time I watched it.

1990s that one sir. As for [iSpirited Away[/i, Studio Gibli doesn't really do anything for me. Manga I'm getting a bit more into but the Gibli stuff I can't get into.

Almost? You're a bigger man than me.

| What I've noticed with the Ghibli films is they've been nowhere near as good since Disney bought them out and their films seem to be more aimed towards the American market. Spirited Away was probably the last really great one they made and became the first Japanese film to win an Oscar. Tales From Earthsea wasn't bad but not in the same league as earlier ones like Princess Mononoke, Howl's Moving Castle and my personal favourite Porco Rosso.
