I just want everyone to know, I blame you all for these movies failing. I SAW them. I'm innocent in their failings. These are in no order.1. Slither- Best horror/comedy in years. AND Nathan Fillion2. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang- One of the smartest, funniest, most exciting and clever crime movies of the decade. AND Robert Downey, Jr.3. Wonder Boys- Michael Douglas should have won an Oscar. And MORE Robert Downey, Jr.4. Zero Effect- Bill Pullman gives one of the wackiest performances ever. Sort of an ancestor to 'Monk.'5. Existenz- David Cronenberg is one of the gods of weird cinema. And Christoper Eccelston!6. The Poughkeepsie Tapes- Most terrifying movie I have ever seen. Period. Being released in February. Go.7. Grindhouse- Nobody saw it because you asshole couldn't hold it in for what, 3 1/2 hours? PEE IN A CUP IF NECESSARY! I HELD it the whole damn time, and probably did permanent damage to my bladder! It was WORTH IT.8. Thank You For Smoking- This movie was so good, even Katie Holmes couldn't fuck it up.9. Children Of Men- This got ONE Oscar nomination. ONE. AND LOST. JULIA ROBERTS HAS MORE!10. Secretary- Maggie is GOD. One of my favorite romances ever.11. Auto Focus- Greg Kinnear made up for EVERY bad movie. EVER. This one movie has redeemed his whole career. And Bob Crane was a crazy son of a bitch.12. Eight Mile- Fuck everyone, this is a fucking fantastic film. OK, it won an Oscar, but people still don't appreciate it enough. Or EMINEM'S remarkable performance. Fuck.13. Lovely & Amazing- Apparently movies where women are real characters don't succeed. I want to be Catherine Keener.14. American Splendor- PAUL GIAMATTI HAS NOT WON AN OSCAR. THERE IS NO GOD.15. Matchstick Men- Even Nicolas Cage didn't ruin it.16. You Can Count On Me- The main reason I still love Mark Ruffalo.17. Jesus' Son- Best drug movie since 'Trainspotting.'18. Man On The Moon- Jim Carrey has some of the most devastating comic moments ever in this film. And the end makes me cry.19. State & Main- There is not a single bad performance in this movie. Alec Baldwin will make you shit your pants. And William H. Macy is great as a dick. One of my favorite comedies.20. Before Sunset- Gives you faith in love. In some ways, better than BEFORE SUNRISE.21. Miller's Crossing- COEN BROTHERS COEN BROTHERS COEN BROTHERS COEN BROTHERS22. Serenity- Hey, I saw it, I bought it, I loved it. It's because of YOU PEOPLE that it didn't do well. And don't get me started on FIREFLY, because I will drive you bonkers.23. Hellboy- Ron Perlman is so underrated it makes me want to have sex with him. Wait... The sequel is coming out soon!24. Sweet And Lowdown- Sean Penn should have won an Oscar for THIS. His best performance ever. And Woody Allen, before his movies started to depress me. Best soundtrack.25. Igby Goes Down- Best way to tell someone somebody has died. When I die, I want someone to do this.26. Confessions Of A Dangerous Mind- Sam Rockwell. It's all about Sam Rockwell. By the way, I knew Clooney would be a great director cause of this movie. Way before GOOD NIGHT, AND GOOD LUCK. Eat me, fuckers.27. Gods And Monsters- Every time I see this movie, it makes me cry over how good Brendon Fraser is, and how bad his film choices are.28. The Hudsucker Proxy- Hula hoops! Tim Robbins!29. A Simple Plan- Billy Bob Thorton can do no wrong. Because of this one movie. I can forgive him pretty much any cinematic vomit he might expel. One of the best movies of its type ever. I think it may be the only one of its kind.30. Arrested Development- OK, not a movie. BUT NOBODY WATCHED IT AND NOW IT'S GONE FOREVER! But the O.C. went on for AGES, didn't it?
