1
Edward Scissorhands (1990,  PG-13)
Edward Scissorhands
Quirky tale of a social outcast. Weak ending
2
Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992,  R)
Bram Stoker's Dracula
Epic story of epic love. Gary Oldman is a total rockstar as Dracula
3
The Age of Innocence (1993,  PG)
The Age of Innocence
Yawn. I doubt I'll ever develop the patience to appreciate a Scorsese film.
4
Little Women (1994,  PG)
Little Women
I've never read the book, but this was like a less-romantic, more-feminist Pride and Prejudice.
5
Beetle Juice (Beetlejuice) (1988,  PG)
Beetle Juice (Beetlejuice)
Well that was odd.
6
How to Make an American Quilt (1995,  PG-13)
How to Make an American Quilt
Squishy feel-good film.
7
Blindness (2008,  R)
Blindness
A decent attempt at adapting a book about people who can't see into a visual medium.
8
Heathers (1988,  R)
Heathers
"are we going to prom or to hell?" lmfao, Heathers? not your usual teen flick.
9
Great Balls of Fire! (1989,  PG-13)
10
A Scanner Darkly (2006,  R)
A Scanner Darkly
Surreal and confusing experience.
11
The Ten (2007,  R)
The Ten
Essentially a 90-minute sketch show. Great cast, a lot of (absurd) fun, but it could've been better.
12
Eragon (2006,  PG)
Eragon
I was expecting this to be terrible, but it was worse than I could've imagined. The characters and plot are empty and adhere to a generic formula for are fantasy series. Everything's been done before, and better.
13
Penelope (2006,  PG)
Penelope
An annoying start, but it came together in the end.
14
Wet Hot American Summer (2001,  R)
Wet Hot American Summer
David Wain > Apatow.
15
The Price of Milk (2001,  PG-13)
The Price of Milk
OMG it's Shota and Karl Urban! Quirky, but probably the most illogical film ever.
16
Barbarella (1968,  PG)
Barbarella
What the fuck!
17
Bright Young Things (2003,  R)
Bright Young Things
*puzzled face*
18
Mermaids (1990,  PG-13)
Mermaids
Oh god, the teen angst! Otherwise, it was a cute film. No actual mermaids = total bonus.
19
The Crucible (1996,  PG-13)
The Crucible
I know you told me not to watch it, Em, but that's like telling me not to jump on the couch. ;) It was thoroughly crap. lol @ DDL's nasty teeth
20
Sleepy Hollow (1999,  R)
Sleepy Hollow
Creeepy.
21
Black Snake Moan (2007,  R)
Black Snake Moan
Sort of fucked-up. And not in the way the poster suggests.
22
Hannibal (2001,  R)
23
Red Dragon (2002,  R)
24
Pumpkin (2002,  R)
Pumpkin
Cute, but sloppy and ridiculous. Its satirical nature is somewhat ambiguous. A sorority girl and mentally-challegend boy unexplainably fall in love, and the story is essentially summarised by the trailer.
25
The Darwin Awards (2006,  R)
The Darwin Awards
Cute film. ♥ Joseph Fiennes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N9-pAhKHPuE
26
The Reader (2008,  R)
The Reader
Low-level drama. The first time she said "kid" was just as annoying as the 30th.
27
Adventureland (2009,  R)
Adventureland
Decent film about people in dead-end relationships and jobs.
28
The Last Word (2008,  Unrated)
The Last Word
Entertaining dark comedy, but the characters should've been fleshed out more.
29
Boys (1996,  PG-13)
Boys
Be better if it had a plot.
30
True Romance (1993,  R)
True Romance
Slow start, but pretty damn awesome.
31
Franklyn (2008,  R)
Franklyn
I'm going to have to watch that again, because A) Eva Green is amazing, and B) I haven't got a bloody clue what I just watched.
32
Sex and Death 101 (2007,  R)
Sex and Death 101
The 'death' storyline was 5000x more interesting than the 'sex' storyline. And not just because Winona >>>> Simon Baker, I swear. I'd love to see a non-parodical Death Nell film.
33
Yes Man (2008,  PG-13)
Yes Man
Predictable.
34
Heavenly Creatures (1994,  R)
Heavenly Creatures
Taking the Heathers quote srsly: "Dear diary, my teen-angst bullshit now has a body count"
35
Flirting With Disaster (1996,  R)
Flirting With Disaster
Enjoyable, but entirely too predictable.
36
Lucas (1986,  PG-13)
Lucas
It's hard to sympathise with a smart-ass brat.
37
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009,  PG)
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
Oh sweet god, the teen angst!
38
Hitman (2007,  R)
Hitman
Just above average for an action flick.
39
Black Sheep (2006,  Unrated)
Black Sheep
Never looking at sheep the same way again.
40
Cutthroat Island (1995,  PG-13)
Cutthroat Island
Worst film ever? I need to detox with a PotC marathon.
41
Welcome Home Roxy Carmichael (1990,  PG-13)
Welcome Home Roxy Carmichael
Awkward. This film would've worked better without Dinky (And how is that character not a huge lesbian? The scene with the guidance counsellor..?)
42
Duplex (Our House) (2003,  PG-13)
Duplex (Our House)
Yawn. The protagonists are idiots.
43
Buffy the Vampire Slayer (1992,  PG-13)
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Lulz.
