I don't. Still my favorite superhero movie.

I nominate Unforgiven. Every once in a while I just think about parts of it and how great of a movie it is.

It's historical accuracy was one of that flick's long suits. Add great cast, great performances, and a great storyline...and it is rightfully a classic.

Seems to me there are very few 'perfect' movies. If I had to list five more, they'd be:

The Searchers

The Grapes of Wrath

Saving Private Ryan

Dr. Strangelove

Kingsman: The Secret Service  (
)

There are way more that come close, but come up short of perfection.

Ya think ? Die hard ? What are you people ? On dope ?

Fast Times is a perfect movie....... it was great and could not be any better. American Graffetti, Grosse Point, Open Range, Unforgiven, G,B and the U.

Aliens, T2, Cassa Blanca, Gone with the wind.

These are perfect movies.

Raiders ? Fun but doesn't stand up to the test of time. Ghostbusters=Shitbusters. Caddyshack, Animal House.... They make no sense. Hollywood Nights, can't believe how many put this in their top 10..... Our country is doomed ! ! !

Star Wars ? Oh FFS ! The Star Trek remake is infinity times better.

GD thinks Seinfeld was a great TV show, go back to trying to suck your own dick.

Soviet Union suffers worst wheat harvest in 55 years... Labor and food riots in Poland. Soviet troops invade... Cuba and Nicaragua reach troop strength goals of 500,000. El Salvador and Honduras fall... The Greens Party gains control of West German Parliament. Demands withdrawal of nuclear weapons from European soil... Mexico plunged into revolution...

Man on Fire was an hour and a half of video filters. It was fatiguing to watch. Master and Commander was tarded.

I’ll give you Godfather, Blade Runner, and Ghostbusters, though.
