The CS! AFI Top 100 Movies: 1980 - 1999

And this was around the time I was kind of obsessed with the first two Rush Hours, among other various buddy action comedies.  So me at that time saying Chris Tucker sucked in a movie really says something about that movie.

Crazy that the Manga didn't end until a few years after.

I'm assuming it didn't live up to the movie's ending.

Just finished Double Life of Veronique. Yeeeeeah, this one is sitting very strangely, not quite sure what my reaction is to it just yet but would I have voted it into a top 100? Eh, probably not.

I'm just happy I managed to get that one on the list. Did not think I'd be able to pull that one off.

I think it was Sno and we got a third vote through horse trading and votes were spread thin enough that we got through in one of those multi-movie ties. 

But it's not even in English.

Fanny and Alexander is well deserved. It's a long movie which might scare people off, but once they sit down and watch it I've found most people to really enjoy it. In fact it's one of the few movies that I argue for the longer version over the theatrical, because the added emphasis on the ghosts adds so much to an already great film. Once the Bishop comes into play as well I think viewers really start to react more emotionally to the film. He's one of the great villains of cinema.

It's sort of funny that a movie that's largely a summation of Bergman's career is also a good introduction to his work, but I think that's definitely the case with Fanny and Alexander.

Fanny and Alexander was...alright.

Found it, bought the third vote from Franky.  He was very enthusiastic about it:

For my own reference:

13. Fanny and Alexander
46. The Vanishing (Spoorloos)
47. Chungking Express
52. Akira
80. The Double Life of Veronique
83. All About My Mother
98. Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters
