Say Anything...

And no this



which I think is the real tragedy, but glad to see a lot of my favorites here nonetheless (no love for True Stories though, either? huh). Definitely some stuff I'll have to check out (notably Paris, TX which I hadn't even heard of), seems pretty alright.

I love Empire, no matter how corny Star Wars is.

Maybe I sucked at reading, but did Ferris Bueller seriously not make the list? Do you guys just hate pure joy?

Ferris Bueller's Day Off did not make the list.

I gotta be honest though, the two biggest snubs in my opinion were Kiki's Delivery Service and Sex, Lies & Videotape. Neither were even close. Neutral

Well, I personally find Better Off Dead to be pretty hard to watch at times, not terribly funny and just not as great as some others seem to think. It has some charms I suppose. Say Anything just feels more real, and is more endearing and funny and seems much better written. And I think it's much more widely recognized as a great film than Better Off Dead. I wish it was ranked higher.

I know, it's almost as if this was a poll based on what people liked, and not what they disliked.
