Movies That Were Probably Made By a Spasm of Six Year-Olds on Acid: The Top 75 Action Films Poll Results Thread

The Thing is amazing/his best role but dunno if enough people consider it an "action" movie

The Thing is one of my top 10 fav movies of all time but I don't know it's an action movie! I don't think I would have voted for it.

If Jaws counts as an action movie ...

Yeah well I didn't think that did either!

Which means that, yes, The Thing will definitely place which is fine by me because it rules.

omar just resolved today's posts with action

Yah, there's definitely some line blurring there. It's also all-time top 10 for me.

Damnit, I could have voted for The Hidden!

Also awaiting the arrival of STATHAM

hope that's cool and if not, see you in hell *walks away, u smile, smile fades as u see me holding a grenade pin, u look down to see grenade in your underwear*

lmao sounds good man

the hidden is great

The Thing was easy because it meant more Kurt Russel AND more John Carpenter on my list.

enough problems resolved by flamethrowers and explosives that I was happy to vote for it.

Hmmmm good point.

*crosses fingers and hopes people forgot about inglorious basterds*

if you voted for the 70s one though spelled right that is acceptable

Dark of The Sun!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't imagine anyone voting for IB

i'd've thought you couldn't vote for something that clearly isn't an action movie but well here we are

also yes The Hidden is fucking a but i don't suppose it's gonna make it now

^^^otm

Shit if i knew Hidden was allowed, i would have voted for Funny Games

tbh I can't hate on IB if only because I spotted the tell in the cellar without needing the movie to tell me about it

omfg Funny Games is such horseshit

:|

...or is its

makes u think

what does Funny Games have to do with The Hidden?

guess that joke was too highbrow for this thread

I can't imagine anyone voting for IB

if I had bothered to vote it would have been the lone Tarantino entry but also pretty close to the top. such an amazing movie.

i really rate IB but since it's not an action movie it was pretty easy to leave off my ballot

Death Proof > IB, at the end of the day

Death Proof defenders are the worst

ib is cool not sure why its so divisive around here, i mean w/e

actually didn't Tarantino manage to get his name tacked onto Iron Monkey? I would have voted that over any of his actual films

fuck what's the movie about the magic fighter plane that downloads all the music on the internet and goes mental? shd've voted for that

Death Proof > IB, at the end of the day

this is a, how you say, interesting contention. I like Death Proof a lot, but the dialogue with the first set of girls really detracts imho

the car chase isn't even good

is that STEALTH

xp to NV

yeah i think it was STEALTH with Jamie Foxx probably but the magic plane was the real star

fuck what's the movie about the magic fighter plane that downloads all the music on the internet and goes mental? shd've voted for that

I really liked IB. Better than DP I think but they're pretty different movies so it's tough to compare.

i mean STEALTH is not very good but its mentalism is gung ho and hilarious which is more than can be said for some of the o_O movies on this list

xxp
