Reel Lines, Audience Participation

Watch the video, and in comments leave the title of the next movie in the countdown. So if the last one named was #98, you name #97. Don't skip ahead, do it in order, don't go from #50 to #14. Only one turn at a time. If you name #97, you can't go again until #95. Don't name 5 movies in one comment. I'd love to see all 100 named... Even if I only have 3 readers taking turns. I'm sure you guys won't let me down. I bet my fellow bloggers out there will be a help in garnering participation. (Hint, hint)

I'll start the whole thing off...

#100: Night of the Living Dead

Your turn.

(For the record I got 73 up front, without cheating)

OK, Even I don't know #96... Little help here?

Will someone please get #96 so I can chime on on one of my favorite movies of all-time, #95?

It's against the rules, but since you asked:

#96: The Lost Weekend (Best Picture of 1945)

Damn it. I shoulda known that one. Thanks Jerry. And off we go again, you're up Doc.

 
At July 29, 2009 2:03 PM, Blogger Austin said...

Come on Doc, need you to put in 95 (also one of my favorites) so I can place 94, my top favorite sci fi of all time. (Also the second highest grossing film of all time when adjusted for inflation)

For the record, I knew 53 without looking them up, which is pretty good considering I am not a real movie buff...

 
At August 30, 2009 2:38 PM, Blogger Jerry in Texas said...

Doc,
Thanks for knocking over the card table. This was K-Nine's game and his to disband if he chose.

BTW, #30 was The Wild Bunch, not 3:10 to Yuma.

 
At August 30, 2009 3:02 PM, Blogger K-nine said...

Free for all. Doc knows he can break the rules sometimes. Have at it Jerry!
Thanks for still playing although I've been absent.
Finish it.
