There are some good movies in that list, however there is a hugh amount that should have been. The latest move that is on that list is Lord of the Rings. What about some of the movies from the 1980's or early 1990's? Anyway thanks for the post

 

Oddly, I don't see:

Vanishing Point (1971 version, of course)

Gone in 60 Seconds (1974)

Thunder Road (1958)

Two-lane Blacktop (1971)

Dirty Mary Crazy Lary (1974)

or even

Redline 7000 (1965)

Now that, my friends, is pure entertainment.

 

Wasn't Deep Throat with Linda Lovelace the rage a while back? [sm=drooldude.gif][sm=drooldude.gif][sm=jawdrop.gif]

 

Dances with Wolves ought to be up there.

 

Very True, althought I hate the ending and the story is a little bit unrealistic but still a great movie.

 

It's amazing how many of those movies I have never seen, some I haven't even heard of before, but one of them I know very, very, very, very well. One of them was filmed in a location where I visit regularly. Take a guess which one (and a particular person who knows the answer doesn't get to guess either).

 

Hazarding a guess, I'd say, 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.'

 

How about The Shining??

 

No you didn't ask that??
