I've seen 2 movies from Tarantino's list. I guess I'm just not enough of a pretentious hipster douche bag.

I've seen 1, 4, 8, and 11. They deserve their places near the top of any greatest movies list.

I'm not the student of film the Tarantino is, as are many Sherbros, and I have seen too few of the movies on his list to discount it, but I can think of several films I would include that he did not. Such things are always subjective. I'd see AFI's top 100 for a more balanced view if I were you.

Props for including American Werewolf but it saddens me to see you put Aliens over Alien.

I’ve seen 9 out of 11 and I think Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is better than any of them except for Taxi Driver.

I agree it was an instant classic. And it's totally in my top 10 or 20. but I am still not sure how highly it should rank.

Other than the first 2 these are in no particular order for me:

1)Shawshank Redemption
2 )TrainingDay
Gladiator
American History X
Antoine Fisher
Freeway
Pulp Fiction
Full Metal Jacket

Props for including Full Metal and not Private Ryan, but like I said, it's so subjective, you can't diss those who disagree.

Alien 3 gets too much hate

Visually its just what youd expect from David Finchers first movie dark and aesthetic as fuck

It actually makes me sad he disowns it, he should be proud of what he did for a first movie

NONE of these films would be on MY list, but that's okay. These things are highly subjective. Taxi Driver is the only one I've really seen and would rate highly. I suppose I can't truly judge, but it does seem like a hipster ass list from a hipster ass dude to me.

Anyhow, let me throw together my own list real quick...

1. Leon: The Professional
2. Casino
3. Shawshank Redemption
4. Goodfellas
5. Full Metal Jacket
6. American Beauty
7. Boogie Nights
8. The Silence of the Lambs
9. Forrest Gump
10. The Usual Suspects
11. Reservoir Dogs

Hipster detected :D Seriously though I'm sure they're good movies, but that's a pretty obscure list.

These are movies tarantino has been rambling about for decades. The influence is all over his movies. Just because his movies don't match your movies doesn't mean his list is bs.

I'm not saying they are BS. Everybody is entitled to their opinion, but this list reeks of somebody trying to be cool by naming stuff off the beaten path. The dude is a hipster and is probably all pop cultural elitist and annoying to hang out with, but I imagine those quirks are what help him pump out some all time great movies.
