In The Heat Of The Night? Seriously?
Dude. Remiss.
Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Dude. Remiss.
The Gold Rush too.
Five isn't so bad. I can knock those off this year.
How many have you seen?

Probably very few (I can't really look at the list from here). But I'm not a movie buff, nor from around these parts.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I've seen about half of them.

I'm really bad--I've only seen 58 of those films all the way through.

That's better than me! And I even counted A Night at the Opera, which I may have fallen asleep during. I was disappointed, after all the hype. It was no Duck Soup.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Pulp Fiction and Goodfellas were in the 90s on that list. So last night we had to develop an oral macro for "THIS is better than Pulp Fiction/Goodfellas?" And once Godfather II came in at 32, "This is better than PF/G/G2?!" I have to say, it's a very Western-heavy list.

The biggest chunk of that list I haven't seen is from the 1960s and '70s--Godfather, Graduate, Raging Bull, Chinatown, and a lot more on my to-be-watched list.

I think I like these AFI guys. I'm sure that will go away once I read the list.
I just failed to get Pulp Fiction or Goodfellas.
Really hated PF.

Someone else who hasn't seen The Godfather !! Now I'm not so weird. I haven't seen Raging Bull either, but I've seen The Graduate and Chinatown. There are a few movies on the list I have on my DVR waiting to be watched: The General, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, and Nashville.
I also have yet to see Goodfellas.
Was The Sixth Sense really THAT good? Maybe I need to watch it again.
