The (Now-Overrated) ILX Top 100 Films of the 2000s Poll Results

nooo way the hangover is making top 50

I would have said "nooo way the 40 year old virgin is making the top 50" but you know here we are

also, the hangover > the 40 year old virgin

No

Yes

Who cares?

Guys, save it for the John Murtha thread.

neither of them are particularly well made films imo, but I thought the hangover was funnier so

also alex in sf otm

"Driver, get me out of this poll."

Best western ever.

Sorry, just didn't care for Hangover is all! Carry on.

i love Mann. it's just that the Miami Vice movie was poorly acted, did feel like 2/3 of a movie, and also was based off of what is arguably one of the more boring Miami Vice episodes. and i LOVE the original episodes.

I laugh at about 90% of what goes on in o brother where art thou, so I'm not sure where this "not a comedy" thing is coming from

ain't this place a geographical oddity... two weeks from everywhere!

"i don't want to be tellin tales out of school, but there's a man in there who'll give you tell dollars if you sing into a can!"

"we're not gonna be singin any songs you dumb cracker."

Pete: You miserable little snake! You stole from my kin!
Ulysses Everett McGill: Who was fixin' to betray us.
Pete: You didn't know that at the time.
Ulysses Everett McGill: So I borrowed it until I did know.
Pete: That don't make no sense!
Ulysses Everett McGill: Pete, it's a fool that looks for logic in the chambers of the human heart.

Hangover sucked.

Possible comedies left:
Shaun Of The Dead, Knocked Up, Superbad, Best In Show... something else.

if people are putting shit like PDL and Brick and Borat on here than I expect Step Brothers should place REALLY HIGH

Hangover sucked.

no it didn't. patchy, though, and i can do w/o mike tyson cameos tx.

step brothers is all-time.

"I am fucking medical doctor" made me laugh more than anything in any movie posted so far.

I have been watching the dvd's of guffman and best of show and guest/levy are always talking about 'i wonder if anyone got that reference' i think this is a strong point of their films - there is such a broad scale of cultural reference that there's probably something just a little too obscure for you, but will keep the just-a-bit-more-clever person in stitches too. there's a little something for everyone!

- Ron

fred willard in best in show is my favourite comic performance of the century so far, hands down.

- or something

You can't hate Best in Show! Even if it is painfully obvious @ times & Fred Willard is just jonesin' on Joe Garagiola.

- David R.

Watch the Starbucks scene again if you doubt your love: Classic movie
improv where half the joke is the fact that it's movie improv, a
homier This Is Spinal Tap with dogs panting on.

- Pete Scholtes

#47

Best In Show
Christopher Guest
2000
United States
(366 points, 16 votes)

HAHAHAHAHAHA

^^^^

Not a re-enactment of my first screening, btw.

Probably the best of the Guest mocks.

yay, love best in show

No wai. It's Guffman and then it's everything else.

How high did that rank on the '90s poll? Better have been in the top 10 if this made it to #47.

haven't liked any of the guest films so I avoided best in show

(spinal tap) > guffman > best in show > mighty wind >>>> for yr consideration

two of my top ten down!

"Probably the best of the Guest mocks."

I assume that you aren't counting Spinal Tap.

Guffman tied w/Miller's Crossing for 30th in 90s poll.

fred willard in best in show is my favourite comic performance of the century so far, hands down.

he's by far the best thing in both this and mighty wind. (not that i voted for either of them.) a quick search suggests that ilx does not have a fred willard appreciation thread, which is a travesty imo.

Full list

*it

v happy about the kill bill 2 and best in show placings

most dog show ppl i know don't like "best in show" (to be expected?)

Other loosely defined comedies: Royal Tenenbaums, Juno, some Will Farrell movie (maybe Anchorman).

kill bill 2 didnt make my top 40, but kill bill 1 was in my top 10!

oh god i was working at folkways when A MIGHTY WIND came out and everyone had this annoying flattered-nerd attitude like "oh they really ZINGED us! wow gosh what a ROAST!"

Anchorman! I hope that makes it. Juno is universally hated here right?

pretty sure

spinal tap bogs down in the last half (after an incredible first half) whereas best in show is tighter and doesn't let up. ed begley jr, fred willard, katherine o'hara, guest's weirdest role to date, john michael higgins...

guys i have to apologize, i put like 10 comedies on my ballot because i didn't read the name of the poll very carefully, didn't realize this was about ~~films~~
