@Axtremus said in Top 100 movies since 2000:
I have watched at least 40, stopped counting after 40.
Watching Brokeback Mountain 30 times still only counts as 1 movie.
-
I have not watched Brokeback Mountain.
There are very, very few movies I watch more than once.
In the list, "Avengers: Endgame" may be the only one I watched twice from start to end.
A few other ones, I watched once start to end, then only fragments by coincidence.
Rather than rewatching a title I have already watched, I would much rather use the time to watch another one I have never watched before. -
34 - most of them some time ago when the kids were younger. I took my son to watch Brokeback Mountain 30 times in the vain hope that he would have a career in marketing.

So I just watched Parasite. My initial reaction was "I'm not sure why this won Best Picture at the Oscars or is on the top of this Top 100 list" and while that holds true, overall the movie was well made and I enjoyed viewing it. Maybe my expectations were higher, and in retrospect, I suppose there was a "Hitchcock" structure/style that made it worth viewing.

ive seen 18. interesting that most of those i saw in a movie theater although of late, i cant remember going to a theater recently. strictly netflix.

Yeah there’s those years of parenthood where you don’t watch any movies that don’t have talking animals in them.

Unless you’re Tyler Robinson, then you’re watching them even more than you did as a kid. Though they are kinda different…

I only recently learned that one of my favorite movies, Rushmore, was directed by Wes Anderson, a guy I somehow decided I had no interest in, without ever knowingly seeing one of his movies. I see a few of his movies up there and will make it a point to see them all. It’s not so heavy a lift to be a completist with directors. He and Paul Thomas Anderson deserve that.
