This is clearly the hardest list i've ever compiled.


Truth. But hell, here we go. I controlled myself and didn't go really stupid with it. I really could have made a top 20 with just comedies and action/adventure films. My list contains a little of everything: a few of the best sports movies ever made, comedies, a hungry booger eater, an alien, a truffle shuffle, cousin Eddie, the movie that ended the cold war, fence painting, yippee kay yay mother fricker, Libyans, and a cougar preying on a teenage manchild. I present, etm's Top 20:

1. Field of Dreams
2. Hoosiers
3. Raiders of the Lost Ark/ Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
4. Caddyshack
5. ET
6. Major League
7. The Goonies
8. National Lampoon’s Vacation/Christmas Vacation
9. The Shining
10. The Terminator
11. Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
12. Rocky IV
13. Top Gun
14. The Karate Kid
15. Die Hard
16. Full Metal Jacket
17. Back to the Future
18. Fletch
19. Big
20. Dead Poets Society

I forgot about the vacation movies. I was pissed that I didnt really include any comedies in my 00's list so i've tried to add more to these last two lists.

Can we talk about Field of Dreams for a second?


I felt it was a very unique movie, and could have been a perfect movie, but it had some impurities that kept it from being that. Some moments were astounding while others fell flat.


The PTA (Paul Thomas Anderson...wait) meeting, for instance. Didn't like that. I liked the mystery of the field and the divine commands though. There were just some minor things that kept it from being something perfect.




ET on the other hand is a perfect movie.
