his bio shoulda read "the aptly named Stephen Thrower."

I was all set to complain, glad this is finally up. Crumb got a vote--way to go, Mike Maggiore.

stephen thrower wrote one of the all-time great books about american independent/exploitation cinema:

Zodiac got three. A Slant guy voted for Zodiac, Il Posto, and Dazed and Confused, so his is my favourite list so far.

clemenza, Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:16 (thirteen years ago)

Irreversible AND Dogville... time to burn that book. xp

Pangborn to be Wilde (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:17 (thirteen years ago)

just rewatched Dazed, preferring it to Slkacker clearly means one was toking to Deep Purple in '76

Pangborn to be Wilde (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:17 (thirteen years ago)

Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End got one...

Number None, Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:18 (thirteen years ago)

Oh yeah, I've been meaning to read that book!

Eric H., Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:18 (thirteen years ago)

Pretty much--Deep Purple first, then we'd throw on Il Posto.

clemenza, Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:19 (thirteen years ago)

1 vote for We Need To Talk About Kevin:

http://explore.bfi.org.uk/sightandsoundpolls/2012/voter/438

Eric H., Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:19 (thirteen years ago)

Jeez, 2 votes for Zoolander.

Eric H., Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:20 (thirteen years ago)

if Malick did a list he probably voted for it too

Number None, Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:21 (thirteen years ago)

Malick would vote for himself.

a regina spektor is haunting europe (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:22 (thirteen years ago)

none for Lang's Fury (bah) or BdP's The Fury (poll justified)

Pangborn to be Wilde (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:22 (thirteen years ago)

and three voted for your beloved Brokeback.

a regina spektor is haunting europe (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:24 (thirteen years ago)

Morbs, don't get better soon.

Eric H., Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:25 (thirteen years ago)

one of the Zodiac voters was an ex-ilxor

love this list from another ilxor:

Ward Fowler, Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:25 (thirteen years ago)

That list is some all-time challops.

Eric H., Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:26 (thirteen years ago)

...whose blurb doesn't mention Pirates of the Carribean....

a regina spektor is haunting europe (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:26 (thirteen years ago)

The vast, grindingly gorgeous whole-cloth mythology in Pirates III, with the franchise figurines chirruping like ghosts in front of it.

Eric H., Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:27 (thirteen years ago)

Lang's Fury <<< Scarlet Street

Eric H., Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:27 (thirteen years ago)

The Woman in the Window >>> Fury >>> Scarlet Street

a regina spektor is haunting europe (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:29 (thirteen years ago)

McCabe and The Long Goodbye did pretty well; nothing for California Split or Thieves Like Us. (Three Women got one vote.)

clemenza, Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:31 (thirteen years ago)

Whoa.

worst list i've seen so far

http://explore.bfi.org.uk/sightandsoundpolls/2012/voter/440

Number None, Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:34 (thirteen years ago)

i've been reading about that. where can i see it, again? xp

Pangborn to be Wilde (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:35 (thirteen years ago)

Online's just fine. At nighttime, or anytime.

Eric H., Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:36 (thirteen years ago)

Best quote I've seen so far: "If your top ten is not daft then it is, by my definition, insincere."

http://explore.bfi.org.uk/sightandsoundpolls/2012/voter/725

Eric H., Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:36 (thirteen years ago)

sure, cuz the exercise is daft

Pangborn to be Wilde (Dr Morbius), Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:37 (thirteen years ago)

i like any lists that ranks mary poppins and the new york ripper together!

Ward Fowler, Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:37 (thirteen years ago)

Jeez, that list is programmed to piss everyone off.

Eric H., Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:39 (thirteen years ago)

"If your top ten is not daft then it is, by my definition, insincere." Basically what I said yesterday--I'd rather use boring than insincere.

clemenza, Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:41 (thirteen years ago)

here's zizek's

http://explore.bfi.org.uk/sightandsoundpolls/2012/voter/94

pretty similar to his 02 list

WheatusVEVO (Hungry4Ass), Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:44 (thirteen years ago)

That's boring, tho not insincere.

Eric H., Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:44 (thirteen years ago)

That's silly--pithy, but silly.

clemenza, Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:47 (thirteen years ago)

> here's zizek's

no Kung Fu Panda?

koogs, Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:51 (thirteen years ago)

Grrr ... I would've been the one to break S&S's Showgirls cherry after all. (I guess that alone explains why they misplaced my invite.)

Eric H., Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:51 (thirteen years ago)

I was wondering how old Philip French was--I've been seeing that name forever--but he answers it on his ballot: "I saw all these films when they opened," for a list with Stagecoach.

clemenza, Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:56 (thirteen years ago)

and he's still reviewing ten films a week. Someone really needs to tell him to take a break

Number None, Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:57 (thirteen years ago)

He'll break when someone drops his body transporting it between cryogenic freezers.

Eric H., Thursday, 16 August 2012 13:58 (thirteen years ago)

He's got a Wikipedia page--79. So Stanley Kauffmann's got 17 years on him.
