Has to be the worst made list ive never seen. oops i mean i wish i never saw it... do us favors and never make a list again!!!! Thank You
2nd anonymous,
has to be the most insightful comment i've never seen. oops i mean i wish i never saw it ... do me a favor and never made a comment here again!!!!
Thank You
Terrible.
I think you have the your list backwards, as some of the movies in the "Kind of good" section should definitely be in the "Pretty good" or "Getting warmer" part of the list. Example - I Am Legend.
So i'm thinking theres two options, either you have NO sense of telling which movie is good or not or you accidentally put some films where they shouldn't be.
Thank You.
Peter Travers,
Is that you again?
Please don't be shy.
No it's not, just another person thinking your list is terrible.
Dear Will Smith,
Please stop leaving harassing comments on my blog pretending that you are a concerned moviegoing citizen.
Stay classy!
Listmaker
dude I Am Legend is a reaaly good movie and i hate superbad!
i find it funny that you try and make fun of others who disagree with your list....stay classy listmaker!
i find it funny that you have nothing better to do on christmas morning than harass a stranger on his blog.
thanks - i will stay classy.
now - please just go away and find some another blogger to pester anonymously.
Hello dude
you have a real wire likes. that why most of the people don't like your list or doesn't agree with it.
I can't say I like it, but also I can't say I don't like it. I think is just a totaly diferent way to qualify movies. Maybe if you establish your parameters to qualify movies, the people outside can a little better comprehend you.
But with that, looks totaly insane list and suck
Well said. You have quite a way with words.
I was looking for a list of movies made in 2006 to filter through the ones I missed. I have seen most of these, and I have to agree with the majority of comments above. Your list doesn't 'suck' but your taste is pretty erratic. Three burials > Jesse James? The simpsons > Atonement? 28 Weeks later > darjeerling, 3:10 to yuma, gone baby gone, etc.
Its not a discussion of semantics over particular case films, but now i have to keep looking for another list bc i dont trust your judgment. Hope your other lists are better, but I wont be reading them.

ps- being classy is the opposite of getting the last word in on an argument. And i liked before the devil knows your dead.
i'm a bit confused by your comment. the movies listed in the first pargraph are good or bad in your opinion? some of them i have ranked fairly high and some i don't. are you saying that all of them are ranked incorrectly?
i'm fine with your comment. at least you are trying to have some sort of coherent discussion rather than just ripping me.
i'm just a guy who likes movies and lists. that's all. i don't pretend to be roger ebert. i've been doing these lists for years but for some reason this particular year's list keeps getting random rude comments. it's odd. that's all.
i see your point about being classy. and i see that you are trying in a witty way to say that i'm not. ok. that's fine. i'm just simply retorting to a bunch of obnoxious unconstructive commenters who i know will never look back at this site ever again. it's my blog. people are rude. i don't see how i'm being unclassy by retorting on my own blog to anonymous rude comments but ok.
obviously we have different tastes if you liked before the devil knows your dead.
i'm just wondering - when you say you've seen most of these movies - how many of my top 10 have you actually seen? just wondering ...
Don't you love it when people tell you what you should or shouldn't love? I mean, I don't agree with everythig you said about these movies but I highly doubt anyone would agree with my taste either.
But I CAME TO THIS PAGE, my choice, to check out a list of movies...AND YOU provided a list....WHOO HOO! What kind of doosh bag gets their panties in a twist about what you chose to post on your own page? Oh...wait...I see...Those people right there -points down- Way to go doosh bags. Heh...anyway thanks for the list I found a few I might watch today. tata
finally a voice of reason!!
thank you!
Hey dudes!
chill...
the list is ...quite bizarre indeed but opinions can vary (maybe quite a bit at this case but still :D) I wanted to see a list of 2007 movies and this dude's list has proven quite usefull. Hopefully this guy's next year movie list will prove to be more to my taste too! But in order for him to make a list next year just CUT THE FREEKING CRAPY COMMENTS and please let the man do his thing.
