Which is pure virtue signaling. I am glad to see Best In Show which should be the highest ranking comedy on that list of the ones I see. It's better than Wes Anderson's two movies that are near the top.Bruce Almighty said:Queso1 said:
I'm just surprised Black Panther wasn't on the list.
At quick glance, it looks like Black Panther was the only Marvel movie to make the top 100.

that's a terrible list - movie industry is dead
Just shows the disconnect between what audiences want and enjoy and the "art of filmmaking" in my opinion.
Some of the films on the list are so painfully unentertaining that I switched them off. Some of them focus on social issues that I don't care one crap about. And then you also have to wade through the pretentious streak that drive the line of thinking of some of these Hollywood types as they compete to have "cultured" views of the world and then try to force those down our throats.

Brokeback Mountain is a far better movie than Fury Road.
And agree with the other poster about Boyhood. I would also add Anatomy of a Fall.
Meh

1. Mad Max: Fury Road should be in the top 5. It's the best action movie of the last 25 years and one of the greatest action movies ever made. Brokeback Mountain is a great movie, but hell nah is it better than Fury Road.
2. I noticed a lack of horror movie representation. I'd put Hereditary in my top 100 and I think it's better than Get Out.
3. Same with documentaries; they seem underrepresented. Free Solo or Man on Wire come to mind as great docs that would crack my top 100.
4. There are not 99 movies this century better than Superbad.
5. The Hurt Locker is not better than Zero Dark Thirty.
I know this is an aggregate of hundreds of industry people's opinions, but some definite question marks here.

Do you live in an alternate universe where none of the John Wick movies, Maverick, and MI Fallout don't exist?

This scene.
Fury Road was amazing in theaters but I didn't think it was nearly as good when I watched it at home. I just don't think it holds up to repeated viewings as well as some other action movies.
You put Brokeback Mountain above Fury Road. The guy whose handle is named after one of the most absurd franchises in movie history.Brian Earl Spilner said:

Check yourself.
That's because Brokeback Mountain is a legitimately great movie and Fury Road is massively overrated.
Fun popcorn flick, but that's as far as it goes.

They are both overrated. Anne Hathaways rack is the highlight of Brokeback.

Reading over that list feels like walking into an art show where the pretentious, acculturated, intellectuals are snottily discussing the allegory and sublime of what looks to me like garbage.

The 70s would dominate my top 10, the 90s would dominate my top 100.

A lot of major actors and directors?

I asked ChatGPT for a top 30 of the last 30 years by domestic box office, adjusted for inflation. I've bolded the ones that also appear on the top 100 hollywood list.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015) ~$1.01billion Titanic (1997) ~$1.22billion Avengers: Endgame (2019) ~$890million Star Wars: The Phantom Menace (1999) ~$830million Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) ~$800million Black Panther (2018) ~$800million (#96 in top 100) Avatar (2009) ~$785million Top Gun: Maverick (2022) ~$780million The Avengers (2012) ~$750million The Dark Knight (2008) ~$740million (#28 in top 100) Avengers: Infinity War (2018) ~$725million Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017) ~$720million Jurassic World (2015) ~$710million Barbie (2023) ~$658million Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016) ~$615million Beauty and the Beast (2017) ~$600million The Hunger Games: Catching Fire (2013) ~$555million The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003) ~$540million Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009) ~$520million The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002) ~$510million Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest (2006) ~$510million Deadpool (2016) ~$500million American Sniper (2014) ~$495million Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001) ~$530million Iron Man 3 (2013) ~$495million The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) ~$490million (#87 in top 100) Captain Marvel (2019) ~$480million Star Wars: Attack of the Clones (2002) ~$470million Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (2017) ~$465million Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018) ~$460million

No Eurotrip? List invalid.
It was produced by far left activists who do nothing but smell their own farts while preaching to the rest of us about how virtuous they are.double aught said:
That is a 'We take movies very seriously' list.
There's a reason why the box office 100% disagrees with this list. Hollywood is the furthest thing from the average consumer.
People are shocked that folks who pursue a career in film and study it for a living have different tastes than they do. Never change TexAgs.
Out of the top 30, I've only even heard of maybe 7-8. I guess I'm not as much of a movie guy as I thought I was.

And the Grand Budapest Hotel is the best movie on his list, imo.
100% Agree! What a horrible movie. Why did it get so critically acclaimed. Big mystery........MasonStorm said:
Parasite was dog ****
A lot of stinkers on that list also.
If I had a gun to my head and someone made me name my 5 favorite/best movies of the last 26 years
Arrival
Edge of Tomorrow
The Martian
The Matrix (why I said 26 years
Interstellar
Obviously I tend towards sci fi, but I like entertaining movies that occasionally make you think a bit. Pure popcorn is too dumb for me and artsy fartsy crap is too boring for me no matter how artistically brilliant it is. The best movies have to straddle the line of entertainment and art.
The list in the OP just leans heavy in the fartsy side and no consumer is going to agree with it.

I'd argue that Arrival is one of the fartsiest of artsy movies in sci-fi film history. Didn't see a single bomb drop or alien get splattered. It really was just about the importance of communication. Yet, it was awesome. A good movie is a good movie.
