I haven't had the chance to watch Doctor Who yet, so - in order to keep myself from reading all the spoilers available, because I have no self-control - I give you a list. Yay, list! Everyone likes lists!
This is Entertainment Weekly's Top 100 movies of the last 25 years list. (this isn't the correct list, btw, because Out of Africa didn't make #1. And Die Hard, for some unexplainable reason, made #9. I mean, I like Die Hard, but it has no right to be on that list at all! A Fish called Wanda should be on it, but hey, that's a British movie, maybe Entertainment Weekly didn't know it exists. And Dances with Wolves!I know, not everyone can every movie Kevin Costner movie (me? noooo, not me!), but you cannot deny that Dances with Wolves is one of the greatest movies ever made. And did you know how much self-restraint it took not to put Bodyguard somewhere in there? Like you'd have noticed if I had cheated.
See how much fun lists can be?
Bold the ones you've seen. (32)
Put an asterisk after the movie title* if you really liked it. (13)
