Whoops. I was wrong. Avengers clocks in at #84
And I think we have one? http://matchcut.artboiled.com/showth...op-100-in-here
A top 100 is just so tough to do, can you all really settle easily on what should be #1? #49? #73?
But they sure are fun.

Seven Psychopaths (2012) is funny in bits and pieces (and Sam Rockwell is pure delight, making a meal out of every scene given), but the overall concept and its execution are just too... annoying and self-satisfying, personally. 5.5/10
In Bruges > Three Billboards >> Seven Psychopaths
Midnight Run (1988) - 9
The Smiling Lieutenant (1931) - 8.5
The Adventures of Robinhood (1938) - 8
Sisters (1973) - 6.5
Shin Godzilla (2016) - 7.5
I compiled a list of every film I love. Then I picked the ten bottom. That was 91-100. And so on and so forth until list was done.
Yes to my top 10.
No to 11-100
And Nolan?

How can the greatest filmmaker of our lifetime be overrated? <-said with a smirk.
Rewatched The Irishman and got my dad to watch it for his first time.
That movie... moves. Fastest 3.5 hrs I've ever had in my life.
Checked out the Criterion bluray of My Dinner with Andre that I bought about a year ago, and goddamn still one of my all-time faves. Such a genuine film.
Several times while watching The Irishman, I would remind myself that I could be watching Goodfellas or Casino instead of this. Decent movie, but was overhyped. Maybe I’ll give it another go down the road.
“What we are dealing with here is a perfect engine, er... an eating machine. It's really a miracle of evolution. All this machine does is swim and eat and make little sharks and that's all.”
Isn't this always the case with Scorsese, though? From Goodfellas onward he's never made a movie clocking under two hours and they are all dynamic as hell. They never feel their actual length.
