The Greatest Movie In The Universe
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.
