Movie Magic.

Buxton was all like, his taste in movies was good, and I was saying it wasn't, so here's a list of my honourable mentions:

1st Tier:
  • District 9.
  • Cloverfield.
  • Back to the Future trilogy. (Possibly just a nostalgia trip, but regardless)
  • Weather Man.
  • Match Stick Men. (In conjunction with Weather Man.)
  • Punch Drunk Love.
  • Terminator 2.
  • Forrest Gump.
  • Cast Away. (In conjunction with Forrest Gump.)
  • Die Hard series.
  • Indiana Jones Trilogy. (I don't hate Crystal Skull, but it was not at all near as good as the first 3)
  • Kick-Ass.
  • Ghost Busters.
2nd Tier:
  • Donnie Darko.
  • Watchmen. (I still need to see Sin City.)
  • League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
  • Little Miss Sunshine.
  • Eternal Sunshine on the Spotless Mind.
  • The Majestic.
  • Spiderman 1 and 2.
  • Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy.
  • Hot Fuzz.
Novelty:
  • Kung Fu Hustle.
  • Shaolin Soccer.
  • Zombieland.
  • Shaun of the Dead.
  • "Adam Sandler Movies".
  • "Jim Carrey Movies".
  • "Arnie Movies".
  • Lord of the Rings. (Their seriousness makes it funny.)
  • Star Wars. (I've tried to watch 3 three times but failed.)

I'm probably missing a lot, but this took me about an hour to compile.

1st tier:
holy shit, weather man FUCKING RULES. also at this stage, cast away has probably one of the saddest things i've ever seen, when he loses wilson. i'm not even saying that to be cool, it was actually genuinely quite sad.

2nd tier:
i watched eternal sunshine in year like 9 or something, but i got back into it a few days ago, and it's alright. it still confused the shit out of me to watch though. and most of the rest of the films in this tier are pretty sweet.

novelty:
yeah agreed, they're all great in their own way
