Kind of a dumb questions, but do Eraserhead (1977) and Island of Lost Souls (1932) have strong enough sci-fi elements to make such a list, even if they belong to the horror genre, first and foremost.
The Wild Robot (2024) is a new/just-released movie that might have what it takes to make the list ...

Re: Greatest Guy Movies
The reason I listed the romantic drama Casablanca in the list of potential candidates for such a project was because I once saw a Top X Movies list on the Internet that mentioned that it was ranked higher by male audience members than female viewers (well, that and because I love the movie).
Anyway ...

Re: Greatest Movie Heroes
I know criteria hasn't been laid down yet, but I could see Indiana Jones being number one (of course, I am biased). Empire named him the greatest movie character of all time ( link ), and, according to a poll on IMDb, he was, at one time, leading the vote for best movie character on Ranker ( though ...

Re: Greatest Hair/Glam Metal Bands
I'm not an expert by any means on glam/hair metal, but, if updates are ever made to this list, here are some notes:
1. A date-range qualifier for Kiss (say, 1983-1993, from Lick It Up to Alive III ) might be necessary. Sure, Kiss was always glammy and hairy, but their glam/hair metal period when ...

Re: Greatest Gangster Movies
I love the movie This Gun for Hire (1942), which is currently ranked #50 on the list, but is it really a gangster movie? With the exception of the greedy corporate overlords trying to sell American chemical weapons to the Axis Powers during World War II (are they the gangsters?), the only criminal ...

Re: 500 Greatest Movies of All Time
On the old forums, I brought up adding The Magnificent Seven (1960) and Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi (1983) to this list. I believe that the consensus was against this, arguing that John Sturges was too undistinguished a director to have more than one film on the list (his The Great ...

Fight Club?
I actually haven't seen Fight Club yet, but it would surely make a list of this nature. The films in the original post are just some of my favorites, made to get the conversation started. It lacks certain movies, like Die Hard (1988), that would surely make the finished list, but aren ...

Greatest Guy Movies
Digital Dream Door currently has a list of the best chick flicks, but what about guy movies? Would there be any interest in making such a list?
I really don't feel qualified to construct the list by myself, so I'm just here to get the ball rolling.
Some potential entries on the list might include ...

Re: Greatest Gangster Movies
I'm biased, as it's one of my favorite movies, but how about The Penalty (1920)? It's sometimes considered Lon Chaney's breakout film.
Also, if A Better Tomorrow (1986) made the list, how about The Killer (1989) (another favorite of mine) or even Hard Boiled (1992)? Yes, they're primarily heroic ...
