Comments on: My top 10 movies http://blogs.e-rockford.com/movieman/2008/03/12/my-top-10-movies/ When film critic Will Pfeifer isn’t watching movies, he’s reading about movies, talking about movies, thinking about movies or dreaming about movies. Now he shares that unhealthy obsession with you. From Hollywood hits to Japanese obscurities, from Oscar night to the summer season, he’s got movies on the brain — and on this blog.

Please don't forget Matt Damon, who won for scribing GOOD WILL HUNTING. Also, Greg Kinnear nearly won for his role in AS GOOD AS IT GETS. Actually, there were three Oscar winners in the cast.

With two -- count em, two -- Oscar winners among its cast. Powerful indeed. With two — count em, two — Oscar winners among its cast.

Oh, wait, I'm thinking of Stuck on You - a powerful film in its own right. And how about the scene where they surgically separate Shirley MacLaine and Jack Lemmon?

I know it's a classic, but not classic enough to make this list. (Or maybe it's TOO classic!) Bob -- SUNSET BLVD is on a slightly bigger list -- say top 25. It's a great film, and one of Billy Wilder's best. I just like THE APARTMENT slightly more. And don't kid yourself -- THE APARTMENT is plenty dark. Shirley MacLaine tries to commit suicide after all, the the scene where she's revived is played pretty brutally. Jen -- I love animation, but none made the top 10. INCREDIBLES and BAMBI would probably rank the highest, with IRON GIANT not far behind. And though I'm a big fan of KANE, it just isn't a personal favorite. It's great, and it's very entertaining (unlike some "classics"), but it didn't make the top 10 cut. Great to see all this love for HUDSUCKER, by the way, a truly wonderful film!

I think the only tapes to get more play in my parent's old VCR were Life of Brian and Better off Dead. Dr Strangelove is one I’ve seen countless times.
