The Greatest Movie In The Universe

[Loony BoB]

Not content with just running a single contest, I decided I'd do one in The Lounge as well. Okay, I need entrants for this one. Give me ideas of which movies to include and we'll have a knockout tournament for 'em sorted in a jiffy.

DVD-only releases are acceptable provided they are still considered to be feature-length. In other words, Final Fantasy VII Advent Children can be suggested, for example.

I'll start by throwing in the regulars...

The Godfather
Pulp Fiction
The Shawshank Redemption

...and also throw in some of my personal favourites...

The Emperor's New Groove
and
Shaun of the Dead

Now, gimme more! I want at least 64 movies to be in this. :D

You can first/second no more than 20 movies.

No 300? This list fails.

300, Life of Brian, MP and the Holy Grail, Anchorman, A Few Good Men. All others I can think of have been said.

[o_O]

I was going to say the three Pirates of the Caribbean films, which I've seen more times than I can count, but they've been said. I saw The Shawshank Redemption for the first time a few days ago and it's easily on the list.

Napoleon Dynamite is there for me too. Fits my sense of humour to a tee. Also there is Remember the Titans and A Beautiful Mind. Possibly the greatest movie ever is Braveheart. :p

EDIT: How could I forget Se7en? My other favourite movie.

[Loony BoB]

I was going to say the three Pirates of the Caribbean films, which I've seen more times than I can count, but they've been said.
Just two of them, actually!

I'll add the rest you mentioned now, but you might have to tell me which is the missing Pirates one if you want it added too.

[Hazzard]

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, is the title.

[charliepanayi]

Annie Hall

Nope, it's in there! Apparently it's the only one that doesn't start with "The" for some silly reason!

[Hazzard]

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, is the title.

Add it then.

[Old Manus]

The Terminator
Manos: Hands of Fate

[XxSephirothxX]

[Slothy]

This list needs Serenity.

Mongol General: Wrong! Conan! What is best in life?
Conan: To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of the women.
Mongol General: That is good! That is good.

Shame on you all if it doesn't win.

[Heath]

Big Trouble in Little China

I've only watched the first half of it but it seemed sufficiently awesome to merit being up there.

You've already used 11 votes prior to this post, and this includes 13 more - 20 being the maximum at the moment, you'll have to cut 4. Lucky for you, Pulp Fiction and Bridget Jones have already been seconded (assumable since your last post). Let me know which other two you'd like to cut.

[Heath]

Kill Bill!

I suppose you could class them as one film since Kill Bill was originally supposed to have been a single film. I'll second Young Frankenstein, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Psycho, Life of Brian and Empire Strikes Back, please.

Second Enter the Dragon
Second Mean Creek
Second Monster
Second Red Dragon
Second Remember the Titans
Second Rebel Without a Cause
Second SLC Punk!

I’d like to add Dear Frankie, Girl Interrupted and Monster’s Ball to that list though.

It’s probably sad that almost every movie on that list I’ve seen. :/
Before this post, you'd already used 18 out of the 20 suggestions/seconds you're allowed... so can you narrow that down to two? xD

No, it just means you have fantastic taste in movies. Mostly.
Yes, Kung-Pow and Final Destination 2 are just two examples of some of the finest movies produced in the history of cinema.

Oops. Um, I guess I liked Dear Frankie alot. But I liked the other two as well. WAIT. What if I want to add something else? *brain explodes*

I guess you can add Dear Frankie and second Enter the Dragon. :(

[The Unknown Guru]

Second Forrest Gump, Apocalypse Now, and Blues Brothers.

Suggest V for Vendetta.

[Quindiana Jones]

Oooh V for Vendetta's gooood.

I'll second that.

I can't believe I didn't think of this earlier. I suggest Fearless. It's a great movie. Oh, and I suggest Signs. 'Tis good.

15 down. :D

[Levian]

Second -> One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest
Second -> Forrest Gump

[Loony BoB]

Everyone can stop seconding Forrest Gump now, it was already seconded ages ago. :p

[Jess]

I suggest Mallrats! Yay! :jess:

and I suggest Signs. 'Tis good.

This is the greatest movie in the universe thread, not the worst. :jess:

[Quindiana Jones]

and I suggest Signs. 'Tis good.

This is the greatest movie in the universe thread, not the worst. :jess:

Go get kicked by a horse. :eep:

[The Unknown Guru]

Second Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, Kill Bill: Vol. 2, and Napoleon Dynamite. I don't see how I missed that the first time.

Also, I suggest:
Blue Sub No. 6
Sanjuro
Yojimbo
The Hidden Fortress

Seconds used: 5 (if Forrest Gump doesn't count)
Suggestions: 5

[Dragoon Kain]

I would like to add Tenacious D and the Pick of Destiny and Scarface to the list. Also add The Frailty!

[Deborah]

The Little Mermaid.

I second this!! :D
Come on! Little Mermaid is WAY better than almost all of the movies on this list...seriously!

How could anything be better? :love:

[Araciel]

hrrrm let me see...

no singing crabs?

[Del Murder]

Godfather Part II is just as good, if not better, than the first one. Many 'best movie' polls select Godfather II as the best movie of all time. Hard to argue with it.

Also second to: Rocky, Scarface, The Incredibles, and Star Wars IV-VI.

[Loony BoB]

Just nine more movies need to be seconded and we can get the ball rolling. :D

[Peegee]

Nobody's suggested Orsen Welles' Citizen Kane????

[Loony BoB]

Nobody's suggested Orsen Welles' Citizen Kane????
Nope. Why don't you suggest it and then second a few of the currently non-seconded ones? I only need nine more!

[Peegee]

Fine I formally nominate Citizen Cane

I also second the following (most others are not good films grr)

A Christmas Story suggested by Strider
Das Boot suggested by Burtsplurt
Yojimbo suggested by The Unknown Guru

[charliepanayi]

I will second Citizen Kane, it deserves a place.

[Loony BoB]

Woohoo! Five to go! :D

[Rocket Edge]

Also, I suggest:
Blue Sub No. 6
Sanjuro
Yojimbo
The Hidden Fortress

Seconds used: 5 (if Forrest Gump doesn't count)
Suggestions: 5
Some of the movies people are suggesting, not many people will know of them, like above. I can't see how it will do very well.

Second Godfather II.

[Burtsplurt]

I'll nominate Magnolia.

[charliepanayi]

Assuming I still have a few slots left to do so, I'll second Magnolia!

I'll also nominate Chungking Express if I am still able to.

[Loony BoB]

Three more seconded movies and we're all sorted. :)

[Burtsplurt]

I'll second Chungking Express, if I can.

Scratch my back etc. ;) Good film, though. I would nominate 2046 by Wong Kar-Wai, but I'm not too sure if anyone else has seen it.

[Gennosuke]

Azumi, although i doubt anyone has heard of it, also public enemy and Ju-on.

[Sergeant Hartman]

Karate Kid for the lulz.

EDIT: Also, Idle Hands is one funny film

[The Unknown Guru]

I'll second Animal House and The Sixth Sense.

[Dragoon Kain]

I cant believe I forgot these. House of 1000 Corpses and The Devils Rejects.

Also 2nd:
Anchorman
The Mask
The Nightmare Before Christmas

thats 14/20 for me so far.

I think im too late now :(

Pick one of those seconds and that'll be all for everyone, I'll start the tournament tomorrow! :D

[Rengori]

Wow, no one wants to second Hot Fuzz?

[Loony BoB]

Wow, no one wants to second Hot Fuzz?
Oh, it's always that way. I think The Labyrinth was something awesome for it's time but as they say when ripping off the good doctor, whatyagonnado?

[Dragoon Kain]

I cant believe I forgot these. House of 1000 Corpses and The Devils Rejects.

Last pick FTW!! Nightmare Before Christmas it is then :D

[blim]

Damn, is it too late to drop Animal House for Monty Python's Life of Brian? Cant believe i forgot that one.

[agrudis]

Hoodwinked, it's a great movie. I've had it on DVD for 4 days and watched it 7 times. Every character (even the one-liners) remind me of someone I know in real life... except the woodpecker.

[Loony BoB]

The following movies will be included in the tournament.
