Stupid Scouts Top 10 Films of His Time (because thats what matters...hehehe)

Well,still have a few more hours at work to kill (hate working late nights),and I dont have a damn thing to do...so I figured you know what,every asshole with a blog of some type has all types of opinionated "top this top that" for all kinds of stupid shit,and not just films...but anything really...so I figured what the hell.I'll do my top films (i.e. favorite films of all time). Now this doesnt mean they have to be Oscar worthy or award worthy.No...these are the types of movies,that you can watch over and over again without ever being tired of them.So if you dont agree with my choice,then bugger off,I dont care,these are just my opinion,and everyones got one,so what the hey,cut me some slack....

so here we go....

10...

The Ring and Boogie Nights- Ok so I hate starting off with a tie,but I went over and over with these two and they both fit into my category of just loving them too much and I cant get enough of either flick,so I couldnt get myself to drop one out.

The Ring is phenomenal and to be honest is my favorite horror flick of the past decade so far.It is a remake and actually was probably the reason that this whole dreaded remake bs started in the horror genre this decade...sigh.But this is an awesome flick.I have seen the Japanese remake,and though thats the original,and it is creepy and well done.I think the U.S. remake is actually superior. The impending doom feeling that just envelopes this movie is just awesome.It does what a horror movie is supposed to do...and thats creep you the fuck out!!

Boogie Nights- This is the flick that really got things going for Mark Wahlberg and also Don Cheadle (who is actually awesome in this...I could watch the dude make a sandwich...just an awesome actor),it also has John C. Reilly (half of Shake and Bake...hehe) throwing in some well timed comedic parts (and this is waaaay before anyone thought of him as being good for comedic roles),and its got Heather Graham in her BEST role ever as Roller Girl...if her nude scene doesnt get ya going,you need to see a doctor!! Phenomenal!!! Oh and it has Burt Reynolds in his last really good role.Between the great acting,the awesome 70's-80's soundtrack,and the memorable scenes,I can watch this all the time,except for the very ending (which I still have only watched just the first time,the other 20 I end it before that) if you've seen the flick you probably understand!! But just a cool ass flick!!

9.

Shaun of the Dead- I wish this movie had came out while I was in college!! This is the type of flick you sit with your buds either after before going out on a weekend and getting drunk and what not or after the partying when you all want to watch some funny ass shit!! This movie is frickin great!! They have the perfect blend of comedy and zombie stuff to keep anyone satisfied.This is the type of flick that you'll notice something new everytime.

8.

28 Days Later- Man I LOVE this and its sequel...hell you could almost combine the two and just have it be one fricking movie.If you are one of the few who doesnt know much about this flick,its directed by Danny Boyle who just won an Oscar for Slumdog Millionaire.This is the flick that introduced running zombies,which to me a fricking waaay scarier than lumbering zombies...a lot more intense,its because of this flick that sooo many zombie movies have been coming out,heck if it wasnt for this flick there wouldnt probably be the awesome Dawn of the Dead remake.Very cool ass pic!!!

7.

Scarface-Man back in college we used to watch this bitch every weekend almost,Pacino is soooo badasss in this flick.This movie has soooo many memorable scenes and quotes...Its so memorable that quotes from the movie are still used a ton nowadays...and not just by rappers!!If you dont like this flick,you dont have balls!!!

6.

Old School- I just watched this for the umpteenth time,this is my FAVORITE Will Ferrell role ever (And I love most of the dudes roles,but Frank the Tank is awesome!!!). Everyone in this flick is on the A game.Its ridiculously funny. Its by the guy who also did The Hangover (which might eventually pop in my Top 10 after some time).Awesome fun!! Your my boy Blue!!

5.

Seven- "Whats in the box??!!" nuff said.....

4.

Swingers- Man,this flick,just thinking of certain scenes make me chuckle.If your a guy,theres a lot that you can relate to in this flick.This is the movie that really got the ball rolling for Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau. They'd been in other stuff before hand,but this is what made them "the big winners".This movies soo money and it doesnt even know it!!

3.

Dazed and Confused- Alright,Alright,Alright....S.O.S to Richard Linklater (the director of this epic),please go get Matthew McConaughey and rescue him from chick flick hell!! Seriously he is frickin hilarious in this film as the older loser hanging out with the high school kids.The older he gets,they stay the same age...yes they do...(HA).Anywasy Mr. McConaughey please find your mojo...please!! I know your making tons of cash playing stupid in flicks with Kate Hudson and stuff,but dude,you are awesome in this flick...you were Wooderson!! Please find yourself an ensemble adult comedy,either done by Mr. Linklater,Judd Apatow,or Todd Phillips and just bring back the funny!!

This movie was made in 93',but it captures the era its set in so well (1976) that it almost feels like its from that time.With a kick ass soundtrack and a bunch of actors that are recognizable,including Benny Affleck....this was MY College movie!!

2.

Alien-

I know lots of people believe that Aliens is superior to this...but I say no way,thats more of a popcorn flick,this is more of a creepy,almost haunted house type flick,this The Ring and my #1 flick all have that forboding shits not going to end well feeling to them.I love the Alien creature itself.I think its the baddest ass creature ever!! I enjoy basically all the Alien movie (the first 3 the most),and even enjoy AVP for what it is,but man I HATE AVPR..man fuck that movie!! That flick was sooooo frickin dark,you could barely see the Aliens...hello the creatures are black in color,you cant have them in rainy pitch black shots the whole movie!! That movie made me understand how Stevie Wonder would feel like being at a movie!! I ADORE this film!!!!

1.

Ta da!! - The Shining- Yeah I've heard people who claim not to like this because its doesnt really follow the book...but you know what?? I dont give a shit,its not like I'm going to read some thousand page book anyways...look this is the creepiest frickin movie I have ever watched,and it doesnt get old...this bitch is almost 30 years old and I never get tired of it after probably watching a billion times.This movie is sooo well textured and shot beautifully,and the acting is sick...this is Nicholson at his bat shit craziest!! And those frickin twins...jeez!! I want a copy of this movie buried with me when I die!!! AWESOME from the opening shot!!!

PS- I would like to throw a bone out to two other favs of mine that I just didnt have room for- Jaws and Halloween...they'll turn up if I ever do a top 10 horror list...

What say you??
