Didn't we take it off the list upon review?

Alright, after some last-minute deals, we have nine new additions.
The Terminator, The Truman Show, The Princess Bride, The Insider, Jackie Brown, Platoon, Scream, The Double Life of Veronique, and in an eleventh hour sniper act, Dirty Work are let in.
Final Tally:
The Terminator - 4 The Truman Show - 4 The Princess Bride - 4 Jackie Brown - 3 The Insider - 3 Platoon - 3 Scream - 3 The Double Life of Veronique - 3 Dirty Work - 3
Everything else - 2, 1 or 0.
Nice work, franky. That puts the list at 81 movies. We're in the home stretch now.
Putting you and your Letterboxd review on blast PhantomKnight after reviewing one of the top 100 movies in cinema history. Observe and Report made it onto the 2000's/2010's list, in spite of that movie being quite bad. So, these lists clearly aren't ironclad. |

Observe and report is still a classic. I own it physically. Which is part of an elite selection.

Weird how this board gets so divided over what is, to the rest of the world, a mostly forgotten movie.

So, when we do the next list...do we just straight up want to do the 60's and 70's, or do something slightly different? I know that 100 Laughs was an idea that was floated before, speaking of comedies on these lists.

Just shot off a DM to thebtskink about that very thing. Perhaps within the next week or two. |

This would break our pattern but I think the 70s might well be a strong enough decade to warrant a Top 100 by itself.

So, the end of June, it's looking like.
And I'm not opposed to PG Cooper's Just 70's idea, either... |
