I said I was going to do this, and (on a whim) I did: I made a list of 100 movies I like to watch. I even put them into a loose order. However, I have 2 comments to make before I start posting the list. 1. Don't look too deeply into the order. I'm not very good at ranking things I enjoy, so there are some movies near the bottom of the list that I enjoy about as much as I do the movies near the top of the list. Only about the top 5 or so are ones that I'd always put where they are, while the rest could float up and down the list each time I make it. 2. I'm not much for explaining why I like a movie beyond "I thought it was fun and entertaining". So, while I may comment on a movie if I have something to say about it, don't expect anything similar to what ol' Shovelman did in his list. Now, without further adieu, here is the list: #100Star Wars: Return of the Jedi I like Star Wars well enough, but I was just never that big a fan of this particular installment in the series, hence it being the first of the six to make an appearance.

#99The Saint I will always remember the first time I watched this movie... if only because I was so focused on the movie that I burned some salsa I had been preparing as a light snack.

#98Jungle 2 Jungle This is the first of many films that have made the list because I used to watch them all the time when I was a kid.

#97Street Fighter Why do I like this movie? That can be explained very easily: "Quick... change the channel!"

Holy crap, Jungle 2 Jungle, I remember that movie. And shame on you for putting Return so low on this thing.

Eh. You'll find the Star Wars films are scattered all throughout this list, from the very bottom to the top 25. I could have put them all in a row, but I thought it'd be more fun to space them out, and so this one ended up at the bottom.

#96The Pagemaster Another movie I used to watch all of the time as a kid. I even played the video game based on it, too. Fun times.

Well the shame on you is because I know you'll be putting Episodes 1-3 somewhere above it on this list, which should be considered a federal offense. Sorry, Emoticon, but you're goin' to jaaaaaaaail.

Pagemaster, awesome. I too played the video game (for Genesis) and enjoyed it.

If it's any consolation, the next Star Wars movie to appear on the list will be from the prequel trilogy.

#95The Chronicles of Riddick

So let's get my views out of the way:
Jedi - good, and I do think that Episode III is better than this but not I or II! Saint - haven't seen Jungle - haven't seen Street Fighter - "I'm going on my boat and kick Bison's ass so hard, the next Bison wannabe is going to feel it!"...awesome Pagemaster - haven't seen Riddick - liked it but Pitch Black was better
....weirdo

#94The Mummy Returns I'm watching this movie at the moment, and those little imp things still make me laugh.

The first Mummy was better but still Returns was still good

#93Underworld Evolution My least favorite of this particular series, and a bit disappointing considering how much I like the other two, but still good.

#92Batman Returns I'm not a Batman fan, but this is one of three Batman movies I like (though obviously my least favorite of those three).
