I've yet to see Shichinin no samurai (Seven Samurai) and Buono, il brutto, il cattivo, Il (The Good, the bad, and the ugly).
 
Haven't seen City of God.

The Usual Suspects belongs nowhere near any of those, even the ones I don't particularly love (but still could see *why* they might be that high, i.e. Godfather). I just don't see why it's anywhere in the top 100.

Because it's a good movie. Any more questions?

His point is that he doesn't believe that it's better than all but 17 movies ever made...

It's still good

Since you're obviously not the same b0mbrman that used to post here, may I inquire as to where you got his account?

Wait, did the old b0mbrman brag about how many times he'd seen Schindler's List?

Crap...I'm still working on this identity theft thing 🙁

FYI, "Buono, il brutto, il cattivo" = "The Good, the Bad, and The Ugly"

And a triple FYI

Shichinin no samurai = The Seven Samurai by Kurosawa
Cidade de Deus = City of God, the Brazilian film about drugs, violence, etc.

I've seen them all, but have no idea how several wound up on the list.
 
I haven't seen The Shawshank Redemption, Casablanca, Schindler's List, Seven Samurai, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, Rear Window, 12 Angry Men, City of God, The Usual Suspects, and Dr. Strangefellow. A lot of the movies I haven't seen are old movies (50's/60's).
