Top 200 Movies We Agree Don't Suck: 2013 Edition
Posted on 11/4/13 at 9:49 am
Posted on 11/4/13 at 9:49 am
It exists! True story is, I lost the first run of this somewhere in the ether. For two reasons: I usually do this on Google Docs, and for some reason, their tracking actually sucks. And second, I did this on Excel, which doesn't run on both computers I own. Bad choice by me. So it was on both and neither, and I couldn't find the final count.
So the quest to find this again involved corrupted files, hobbits, new hard drives, a new warp drive, The Force, The Schwartz, a room with an older version of myself spilling coffee, an insane asylum, a German doctor who recently learned to walk, dinosaurs and a briefcase. And yes I'm selling the movie rights. And yes, I had to completely redo the count that originally took me about 2 weeks. It didn't take the 6 months that has passed, but to find time to redo each step was rough. Which is awesome because it's always about the responses, and I'm glad there are so many of them.
It's about what we feel, as a board never in consensus, which movies have the LEAST chance of sucking. We all know there are tons of films out there that we love, that we champion. There are also films that we can't stand, so it's good to dig in the muck of our own film criticism to find some sense of consensus.
And with that said, I simply present, the list.
Ballots were posted in March-April. They included longer lists of 30, with 1 being the highest, 2 next and so forth. Votes were tallied and scored according to a slightly changed formula from before. A movie needed 3 Votes to make the list in full, and the last 30 movies are so were selected from the top 2-3 Vote getting films by me.
All films released throughout enternity, were accepted for this list.
There are 200 films this time, so this will literally take, all day long.
Statistics:
57 Voter Ballots
560 Movies 10 Original Films per ballot (Roughly)
Time to compute: 199 Days

1. Godfather I & II
1972
Dir. Francis Ford Coppola
“…don’t ever take sides with anyone against the Family, again. Ever.”
Francis Ford Coppola said he always wanted to tell the story of a father and son at the same age when making the Godfather Part II, but it’s really spread over the 2 movies, with Michael’s story in the Godfather more like Vito’s in Part II. In the Godfather we see Michael’s transformation from “nice college boy, who didn’t want to get mixed up in the family business” to ruthless mafia Don. In part II we see the story of Vito’s rise from hard working immigrant to ruthless mafia Don.
With Michael get the sense that Michael was always destined and really wanted to take over for his father. His joining the army and not wanting to be part of the “family” seems more like youthful rebellion. When he does decide to join the “family” he’s a natural. His first act, to kill Solozzo and McCluskey is initially met with laughter and eye rolling, but after explaining it’s business, not personal, they all see he is right. The mentality that it’s business not personal perfectly defines Michael and is ultimately his undoing.
Vito’s path to crime is quite different. He is pushed into it by circumstances around him. As a poor boy in Sicily, the local Don murders his entire family. His mother is shot in front of him as she pleads with the Don spare the boy. The Don refuses, fearing the boy with grow up and seek revenge for his father and brother, which of course he does. After his family is murdered, he flees to America, where he grows up to be just a hard working immigrant, but he can’t escape the reach of the mafia. He loses his job at grocer after the local Don forces the grocer to fire Vito and hire his nephew. He later gets roped into crime after helping a stranger across the alley hide a package. With no job, Vito along with his new friends Clemenza and Tessio begins a successful career in crime. After Don Fanucci, who got him fired, demands a “taste” from Vito and his friends, Vito decides to take his destiny in his own hands. He tells his associates he will offer Fanucci a fraction of what he demanded. At first they reject his plan, just as they do to Michael in Part I. Vito convinces them his plan will work and he sets out to kill Fanucci.
The scene where Vito kills Fanucci is my favorite movie scene. After meeting in a café, where Vito gives Fanucci much less then he demanded. The scene takes places during a holiday, with a parade and street festival going on. Fanucci leave’s the café he walks through the massive crowds who all know and fear him as the master or the neighborhood. Vito follows along the roof top’s, stalking him. After he kills Fanucci, Vito walk’s through the same crowds as they celebrate and shoot off fireworks for the holiday, not knowing the Black hand is dead, but the implication is clear. Vito gets home to his family sitting on the stoop and holds his infant son Michael and tells him he loves him. For Vito, “the family” is just a means to provide for and protect his family. For Michael, the “family” becomes everything and he destroys the real family in the process.

11. Jaws
1975
Dir. Steven Spielberg
“You’re gonna need a bigger boat”
Jaws was the first summer blockbuster and made Steven Spielberg a superstar. But unlike many of the summer blockbusters that followed, include a couple of Spielberg’s own * cough Jurassic Park cough * Jaws takes the time to build the characters and suspense and doesn’t rely on special effects and that’s what makes it such a great movie
The story is about a shark terrorizing a sleepy island community around the 4th of July, the peak of the tourist season the local economy depends on, but we don’t see the shark until the 3rd act. That may have been as much because of the limitations of technology at the time as by design, the mechanical shark notoriously had problems, but it works. John Williams haunting score helps build the tension and keeps us on the edge of our seat throughout the movie as we get glimpses of the shark.
What drives the movie are the 3 main characters. Police Chief Brody, Roy Scheider, a former NYC cop, who is afraid of the water, but takes the job as chief on an island “It’s only an island if you look at if from the water”. Matt Hooper, Richard Dryefuss, a trust fund baby and academic shark expert. But the best character is Captain Quint (Robert Shaw) the grizzled local fisherman who has a Captain Ahab like need to hunt the shark.
The movie’s best scene and one of my all time favorites is on Quint’s boat, after the 3 head out to kill the shark. At the end of the first day, sitting around getting drunk, Hooper and Quint start swapping stories about how they got various scars. After a couple of rounds Brody innocently asks Quint about one on his arm. He says it was a tattoo. A drunken Hooper says jokingly says “ let me guess, Mother?” and laughs. But he turns somber when Quint says it was the USS Indianapolis. Brody asks what happened and Quint tells the chilling story of the ship that delivered the Hiroshima bomb but was sunk by a Japanese torpedo, leaving the crew in shark-infested waters for days. “1100 men went into the water, 316 men came out, the sharks took the rest June 29, 1945. Anyway, we delivered the bomb.”

First 20 released. The majority of this list are films that received 2 votes and were selected to fill in the last few positions on the list. This gave us a nice even 200 films and I tried to represent both the wide range of film tastes and votes.
