Guest Juanky Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Alright, here's how this thing works. Later on in this post you will see the name of the movies nominated in this specific genre. They are presented in order by how many nominations they received, and then subsequently in order alphabetically when tied with the same number of votes. The number of nominations appears in parenthesis next to the movie title (with those not having a number receiving one nomination). Number of nominations was only the number of mentions the movie received in this specific genre. Now, with that out of the way, here's the process. Simply look at the movie list and post your own list from the list of movies on the nomination list that you believe everyone, no matter what, must see. Feel free to poke fun, argue with, or ask for explanations from other users who may post lists. The point is to draw a general consensus on which movies should be viewed by everyone. If I see a movie that's getting a lot of issue over with more than one poster on each side of the debate, I'll post up a poll and have everyone speak specifically in that topic about that movie. Now, with all that out of the way, here's the list: Suspense / Thriller Strangers on a Train (4) Psycho (3) Silence of the Lambs (3) North by Northwest (2) Rear Window (2) Se7en (2) Signs (2) Sixth Sense (2) Air Force One American Psycho Angel Heart City of God Dark City Dial M for Murder Donnie Darko Fight Club Gaslight Hotel Rwanda Laurence of Arabia M Memento Red Dragon The Birds The Game The Usual Suspects U.S. Marshalls Unbreakable Vertigo Vote Vote Vote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckeye Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Fight Club American Psycho (even if it's the wrong list; fits more in horror comedy) Psycho Se7en Rear Window No Fight Club votes yet? Memento (added in subsequent post) ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 If Memento and Fight Club don't make the list I'm just going to go ahead and quit voting. These are certainly two of the defining films of our generation, and they MUST be on this list. Memento Fight Club Silence of the Lambs North by Northwest Rear Window Se7en Sixth Sense The Birds Vertigo ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memento added to my list. I cannot believe I spelled Memento wrong, not once, but twice. Wow. Probably one of my top 5 all-time films and I can't even remember to spell its name correctly.

Mabdul Doobakus Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Seen: Strangers on a Train Psycho Silence of the Lambs North by Northwest Se7en Signs Sixth Sense Air Force One American Psycho City of God Dark City Donnie Darko Fight Club Laurence of Arabia Memento Red Dragon The Birds The Game The Usual Suspects U.S. Marshalls Unbreakable Vertigo IMO, this is the weakest list yet, although there's some good ones at the top. These are my must sees: Psycho Silence of the Lambs Vertigo The Usual Suspects North By Northwest Donnie Darko Memento I guess that's where I stop. Donnie Darko and Memento just made the cut for me. Donnie Darko because it's one of my Top 5 movies ever, and Memento possibly only because of the lobbying going on in this here thread. It was a really cool film, though. Who nominated U.S. Marhsals? Confess. ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
