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

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

is it

STEALTH

lol xps

btw the The Hidden/Funny Games joke was pretty bad, guys

lol the movies i have not seen on this list

#72 VANISHING POINT
#71 DIRTY HARRY
#67 (TIE) BRANDED TO KILL
#66 ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13
#52 GET CARTER
#47 THE WILD BUNCH
#46 THE GREAT ESCAPE
#39 LE SAMOURAI

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

OMG WATCH DIRTY HARRY FIRST CHANCE U GET

Get Carter too but it's not as urgent

im gonna watch them all swear plz dont me mad at me everyone its not my fault

nah there are things i haven't seen that i didn't vote for that i know i wd have voted for if i'd seen them, also i shd've rewatched some stuff i hadn't seen for a long time

i rescreened collateral yesterday

i watched to live and die in LA for the first time last nite-- wish i had done so before making my ballot

I watched Akira yesterday, but didn't have the heart to mention that there's a shitload of action throughout the film

friendship in action

The Wild Bunch deserves a better defense than given on this thread so far. really changed the way I thought about/watched films in general and westerns in particular.

live n die in la is great, similar vibe to the hidden but no thrash aliens

also while we're updating this thread with how it affected our daily lives:

i thought about the akira cartoon ade posted while i was driving home from work, about 8 hours after i had first seen it, and laughed out loud

i can't remember if i've ever seen The Hidden 2 or not, i shd put that right

for cartoon fans can i point out there's a load of violent action in the Road Runner series

without the twee bullshit
