This is a nice story

The playful Steven Spielberg-George Lucas box office rivalry began at a workshop

 

John Mulaney in a recent comedy actors roundtable was asked "what is your dream role?" and he said it would be a prequel to Jaws where he plays young Chief Brody as a New York City cop that explores why he's so afraid of the water. Now I kind of want that.

 

Haha I watched that one, it's a great round table

 

They didn't have Tabu for some reason.

 

Rap World is the one I added

 

Hell yeah. Wet Hot American Summer

 

Tabu instead of children of men and you’ve a got real good list there

 

Tabu is one of the ten. They just didn't have it in the database so it looks like I picked nine.

 

almost certainly forgetting something and probably don't need double Greta but

 

@Nathan why did you make us start in the 1910's and then not participate?

 

I didn’t realize it started

 

Im half way through my slog of Birth of a Nation

 

This was quick and off the dome and I also took off Social Network cuz I didn’t want two from the same director

 

Starting Halt and Catch Fire again (fifth watch through I think?) Lfg

 

i never realized 10 would be so hard!

mega honorable mentions;
Superbad, Irishman, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Licorice Pizza, Anchorman, Team America, Identity, Coco, Donnie Darko, Eternal Sunshine

 

I fell asleep at the theatre to Saw 1.

 

Underwater was sick. The real odd choice is Zathura

 

These bigger timeline lists are always so much more interesting. The much larger pool of choices and the way memory washes away the hype leads to much more strange or offbeat choices. When it is a year list you tend to see the same four or five movies again and again. Not that they are necessarily unworthy, but it gets boring. It is one thing to be the 1000th person to say The Brutalist was great, but who is still championing some forgotten movie from 2002?

 

Think that’s fake, read the bio
