Unless you count Spaceballs.

Also, all the star wars and LOTR movies are high on the top 250.

The library has every movie you listed, I think all on DVD too.

I was just asking a general question. He said he saw every movie on the top 250, but he probably doesn't have a hot ass library. That is why I was wondering where he sees them from.

I agree.

I have seen a fee of those films but I can't think of any I remember standing out. Things like "Bridge over the River Kwai" are films my dad recommends to me, but I end up not really liking.

The Great Escape is excellent, though.

No, it means that some people are smart, and others are stupid.

Kind of like in the real world.

Blade Runner - overrated but still mostly holds up today
Cool Hand Luke - Paul Newman, iconic performance
The Hustler - Newman again, total self-destructive trip in this one though

All worth watching for different reasons. You might not necessarily love them or anything but they're still worth watching.

(I'm impressed you've seen Hero btw )
