(via the planet, and schwuk, with a minor update – I forgot to bold two films. Bad geek, no bandwidth for you!)

Here’s the concept. If you’ve seen it, it’s italic, if you enjoyed it, it’s bold. Not hard, right, good, off you go! (sorry planetviews, the second of, probably, many) – I’ve also taken the liberty of adding come comments – if you’re going to do one, don’t you’ve got to do that, and it may be easier to copy schwuk’s copy):

1. Titanic (1997) $600,779,824
   The hotdog song
   
2. Star Wars (1977) – $460,935,665
   Da! Da! Da! DadaDA! DadaDA! – or perhaps not….

   Didn’t you always want to have a glowing finger so you could pick your nose with it?

   Cinema Exit Comment: "Ow! My eyes! My eyes! I want my £9 back! I was robbed!"
   
5. Spider-Man (2002) – $403,706,375
   CEC: "Wow! That impressed me, it wasn’t a crock of crap!"
6. Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, The (2003) – $377,019,252
   And never want to see it!
7. Passion of the Christ, The (2004) – $370,025,697
   Yet! Worse, I own it already.
8. Jurassic Park (1993) – $356,784,000
   Real shame I was 18 when this the world, I’d have love to have seen it when I was about 8! I would have wet myself, for sure! Then again, CGI back in 1983… or not
9. Shrek 2 (2004) – $356,211,000
   "The position of annoying talking animal has been filled."
10. Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, The (2002) – $340,478,898
    One of the best naps I’ve had in a long time.
11. Finding Nemo (2003) – $339,714,367
    "Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming" – How often do I catch myself singing that to myself, per WEEK?!
12. Forrest Gump (1994) – $329,691,196
    "Life is like a box of chocolates" – yeah, sticky and messy.
13. Lion King, The (1994) – $328,423,001
    Hmmm, just didn’t click with me for some reason.
14. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone (2001) – $317,557,891
    Was intentionally clever – saw the film before reading the book. Helped no end.  I got Halfblood-prince at 1am this morning. I’m so sad. Lo stole it off me, I’ve not read a page yet!
15. Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, The (2001) – $313,837,577
    I’ll watch it when I’m really tired and can’t get to sleep….
16. Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones (2002) – $310,675,583
    Episode I scared me away
17. Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi (1983) – $309,125,409
    Little to say that’s not already been said by everyone with eyes, ever
18. Independence Day (1996) – $306,124,059
    "No, really, it’ll work, it’s an alien technology I’ve never seen before, from a species I didn’t even knew existed a week ago, with a glyph unlike anything in existance, and I’ve written a virus on my powerbook for it." – but Will Smith did beat up a Muppet and Data got strangled.
19. Pirates of the Caribbean (2003) – $305,411,224
    I hate this film – the movie that turned my house in Pirates. Still. We’re still all prone to wandering around shouting "Yar-Har!" without prompting or warning.
20. Sixth Sense, The (1999) – $293,501,675
    Icy Dead People – hang on, that’s titanic isn’t it?  I want to half-bold this. I "get it" and it’s okay and all but how can I bold this and Star Wars IV with the same tag, it’d feel wrong
21. Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back (1980) – $290,158,751 22.
    See #17.
22. Home Alone (1990) – $285,761,243
    Made you want burglers just so you could drop paint-tins on their heads!
23. Matrix Reloaded, The (2003) – $281,492,479
    Because the first one wasn’t weird enough….
24. Shrek (2001) – $267,652,016
    It’s like Austin Powers covered in snot.
    
25. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002) – $261,970,615
    Saw this, AFTER I’d read the book. Impressed at the adaptation.
26. How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000) – $260,031,035
    I’m odd, I’ll only watch Christmas films at Christmas, it bugs everyone I’ve ever lived with – so, in about 4 months time – I’ll buy it, I anticipate good things.
27. Jaws (1975) – $260,000,000
    Did you see the teeth bend?
28. Monsters, Inc. (2001) – $255,870,172
    Not what I expected, but good none the less!
29. Batman (1989) – $251,188,924
    First time I ever went to the cinema by myself – and a good film to boot, I have the soundtrack vinyl somewhere, still
30. Men in Black (1997) – $250,147,615

    I am bad and wrong and naughty and will see this VERY soon. I expect good things.
32. Bruce Almighty (2003) – $242,589,580
    Expected bad things, was happily wrong. Respect the parting of the soup and the bigger boobs. If I ever had a dog, it’d be God’s dog.
33. Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) – $242,374,454
    Another classic, #17 moment
34. Twister (1996) – $241,700,000
    Should I?
35. My Big Fat Greek Wedding (2002) – $241,437,427
    Is it even funny? I’ve not heard anything good on it….
36. Ghost Busters (1984) – $238,600,000
    One week – three cinema visits. The F1 introduction was boring after the first two times…. or was that just my local cinema?
37. Beverly Hills Cop (1984) – $234,760,500
    Everything was good, and great, and wonderful, and along came the frog.
38. Cast Away (2000) – $233,630,478
    Everyone needs a volleyball.
39. Lost World: Jurassic Park, The (1997) – $229,074,524
    Not a patch on the original.

    Robin Williams scares me in a good way.
43. Ghost (1990) – $217,631,306
    Expected soppy sentimental trash. Got soppy sentimental trash. Enjoyed it anyway
44. Aladdin (1992) – $217,350,219
    Robin Williams being considerably less scary – the lack of original voices in Aladdin II was sad.
45. Saving Private Ryan (1998) – $216,119,491
    Not seen – not really a warfilm person – put off by living with war-story telling Grandad for many many years.
46. Mission: Impossible II (2000) – $215,397,30
    Prefered the first – the second, while good, feels like a late cash-in. But respect Tom’s hair!
47. X2 (2003) – $214,948,780
    Hmmmm – Picard was better first time round.
48. Austin Powers in Goldmember (2002) – $213,079,163
    Shrek had a bath.
49. Back to the Future (1985) – $210,609,762
    Very clever. Very very clever. "Lone Pine Mall"
50. Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999) – $205,399,422
    "#17"
    
51. Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991) – $204,843,350
    Another chance to see Arnie naked, before he got fat and political.
52. Exorcist, The (1973) – $204,565,000
    I want to learn to do that with my eyes!
53. Mummy Returns, The (2001) – $202,007,640
    Brendon’s best character returns with a larger bag of witty one-liners. "Blast From The Past" ranks a close second for him, IMO.
54. Armageddon (1998) – $201,573,391
    "I’ll sing you a theme song if you make my daughter a star!" Ben should have died.
55. Gone with the Wind (1939) – $198,655,278
    Sorry.
56. Pearl Harbor (2001) – $198,539,855
    What a bloody slapper! The bike of WWII.
57. Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989) – $197,171,806
    XVII
58. Toy Story (1995) – $191,800,000
    Genius. Pure, concentrated, bottled at the source.
59. Men in Black II (2002) – $190,418,803
    Half cash-in, Half franchise-revamp – one overall good movie.
60. Gladiator (2000) – $187,670,866
    "Lots of blood and pointy sticks for the boys, lots of oiled muscles for the girls. Gladiator – the macho chickflick."
61. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937) – $184,925,485
    Did you cry?
62. Dances with Wolves (1990) – $184,208,848
    No desire to see, either.
63. Batman Forever (1995) – $184,031,112
    They all went downhill from the first. Keaton was the best Batman too.
64. Fugitive, The (1993) – $183,875,760
    Very little Ford does is bad.
65. Ocean’s Eleven (2001) – $183,405,771
    How to do it right…. for "how to do it wrong" see Ocean’s Twelve. Clever, detailed, well thought out and a little twist in the end. Oceans Twelve, paniced, rushed and storyline too unstable to support any real good twists.
66. What Women Want (2000) – $182,805,123
    Another chick-flick you can feel good about enjoying.
67. Perfect Storm, The (2000) – $182,618,434
    On the list, honest
68. Liar Liar (1997) – $181,395,380
    I (heart) Jim.
69. Grease (1978) – $181,360,000
    If I didn’t, Lo’d kill me But it’s borderline – I like it, the songs, the story, but there’s a couple of songs I don’t like, and it taints it heavily for me. But overall good.
70. Jurassic Park III (2001) – $181,166,115
    Better than the second, IMO.
71. Mission: Impossible (1996) – $180,965,237
    My favourite movie a long time.
72. Planet of the Apes (2001) – $180,011,740
    Original’s better – like so many remakes.
    
73. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984) – $179,870,271
    iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii – you can count them if you want
74. Pretty Woman (1990) – $178,406,268
    The tart with a heart or the millionaire who’s mad – you decide?
75. Tootsie (1982) – $177,200,000
    Watch Tootsie and Rainman back2back and feel odd inside
76. Top Gun (1986) – $176,781,728
    Everyone needs a wingman, right? Arrrrghhhhh *crashburn*
77. There’s Something About Mary (1998) – $176,483,808
    Steps to coughing popcorn all over person in seat in front of you:
    
    1. Make date to meet girl.
    2. Do the dirty-dance.
    3. Shower
    4. Do hair with gel, etc.
    5. Arrive at cinema.
    6. Watch "Something about Mary".
    7. *wait*
    8. Make mess.
78. Ice Age (2002) – $176,387,405
    Went a different way to how I expected, but good
79. Crocodile Dundee (1986) – $174,635,000
    Seventeen.
80. Home Alone 2: Lost in New York (1992) – $173,585,516
    Suffering from Sequel Decay – the more they make the worse they get. This was the start of the breakdown.
81. Elf (2003) – $173,381,405
    With the Grinch
82. Air Force One (1997) – $172,888,056
    Not seen, yet.
83. Rain Man (1988) – $172,825,435

89. Chicago (2002) – $170,684,505
    Never got around to going
90. Three Men and a Baby (1987) – $167,780,960
    Haunted Hollywood 101 or stupid crew who don’t pay attention to "Clear the Set."
91. Meet the Parents (2000) – $166,225,040
    *blush* soon.
92. Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991) – $165,500,000
    Devon to Nottingham in half a day. Impressive. But not as impressive as arranging meeting with girls at 22h00 and 22h30, before the clockwork clock was invented.
93. Hannibal (2001) – $165,091,464
    Original was scarier, but not very scary – just a good thriller.
94. Catch Me If You Can (2002) – $164,435,221
    "Okay Tom, you’ve got him, kill him, you have to, he dies in almost every other film he’s in, but that’s just make believe – do it for real and be a hero!"
95. Big Daddy (1999) – $163,479,795
    Peeing in a doorway never looked so good.
96. Sound of Music, The (1965) – $163,214,286
    The hills are alive with stubbley men in nuns outfits – scary.

    Almost as good as the first….
    
98. Bug’s Life, A (1998) – $162,792,677
    Better than Antz. Much.
99. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004) – $161,963,000
    I want the old bumblebee back. Damn you mortality! An interesting change of cinematrography too.
100. Waterboy, The (1998) – $161,487,252
     Long live the geek!

So, I’ve seen quite a few films – and enjoyed most. I’m not really THAT fussy, actually. I enjoy movies, and my DVD collection reflects this. (Several hundred movies)

The other thing is that there’s no obvious to what I’ll like, and I break what little rules I have. I should have hated "War Of The Worlds" but I can’t. Opps. I like it. I want it on DVD. Like I should hate mashup, knowing enough about proper music to appriciate it, I should think mashup is a monster, in stead I love it.

But that’s life, really, I guess, just when you think you have things sussed or something follows a pattern, something comes along and blows it, like Episode I.

Feel free to do you own Movie MeMe, I’d like to see your opinions, remember to follow the rules. Bold for like, italic for seen but didn’t like….
