Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior is the greatest movie ever made.

Hardly.

Good movie but glaring mistakes, especially the appalling weapons handling, keep it from being great.

Now Die Hard was a great movie.

NO. Notice not 1 of the good guys even bother to aim using sights but rather elect to shoot from the hip. What are we teaching our youth. Think about the children...!!!

Are you kidding OP? Predator ranks third on just John McTiernan's list of films, much less all films by everyone ever. Both Red October and Die Hard are better.

Now be a good boy and GET TO DA CHOPPA!

Mac: You're ghosting us motherfucker. I don't care who you are back in the world. You give away our position one more time I'll bleed you, real quiet, an' leave you here. Got that?

My first instinct. Much more comic relief.

No not even close. Good entertainment? You bet. Best movie ever or you're gay? Sounds like someone is looking for an internet date to me.

Now Die Hard was a great movie.

I heard an interview last week with Jesse Ventura and he said that that was the movie he was most proud of because he gets SEALS telling him how much they like the movie because the tactics in it are very similar to how things are really done. He also said that he had to fight the directors all the way to keep as much hollywood crap out as possible. I do not agree with all of his views but he is a good interview.

Predator
Aliens
Terminator series
Robocop
The Thing
Predator 2
Robocop 2

These are the best sci-fi movies so far.

I like Tombstone as a "great" movie better than Predator.

Posted: 6/17/2009 8:50:31 AM EDT

[#22]

It is neither the best movie of its type, nor the best movie of its type in its period, nor even the best movie starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. So it is far, far from being the best movie ever.

Predator is only slightly behind Die Hard for rewatchability IMO.

He's right.

Predator was a very good movie.

But to just stick to Sci-Fi films, these movies were better:

The Day the Earth Stood Still (Orginal)
Aliens
2001: A Space Odyssey

Give me time and I'll pick out a couple more.

I'd say Kindergarden cop, Junior, and Twins were his 3 best films. Nothing else really comes to mind.

I ran out of effort, but Predator is quite a few away from showing up on my chart.
