Top 50 DVDs
Muftakkabe327 writes "TheForce.net points to UGO's Top 50 DVDs feature where Star Wars makes a healthy appearance at #11. Whether that's high enough to keep fans from rioting remains to be seen. Other nerd-friendly fare on the list include Evil Dead, Lord of the Rings, Ghostbusters, Akira, Dawn of the Dead, Freaks & Geeks and Led Zeppelin. "
When will you nreds ever let Star Wars go? It is over. OK. Ovber. Forget about it. Move on. It was great the day it came out, but it has not aged well at all, and for some, it even seems dumb now. Thank you.
haha!!! star wars beats star trek. On your face trekkies!!! LOL
or how about akira at #14?
"Finally... the treatment it deserves" ???
Are they serious?
The only treatment akira deserves is to be microwaved and binned, in that order.
It was a crappy anime to begin with, even before they got mcgruff the crimedog onto the english dub.
I mean that colossal turd Pearl Harbour shouldn't even have made the list, never mind at #22, ahead of the Godfather Trilogy, The Shawshank Redemption, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, or Back to the Future, just to name a few! I DL'd Pearl Harbour and after watching it blew it off my hard drive and contemplated sending a bill to the MPAA for wasting my time with that crap.
They can also get rid of frigging Goonies and replace it with something decent like The Usual Suspects, which I notice didn't make list! An unforgiveable ommission (as was The Unforgiven:-P).
I also notice that the fanboys managed to push LOTR into the #1 spot...Yes, the LOTR trilogy was enjoyable and deserves to be on the list, but #1?!? No chance in hell...
There are also a ton of other classic movies that should be here and aren't. Thanks, but I'll stick to The Filthy Critic for recommendations as to what's worth watching.
You're using her as bait, Master!
