I'm curious how Les Amants Du Pont Neuf and Holy Motors compare.

ManPerson wrote: Wed Feb 19, 2025 11:07 am I'm curious how Les Amants Du Pont Neuf and Holy Motors compare.

I'd second this

Initial popularity: Les amants
Lasting popularity: Holy Motors

Audience acclaim: Les amants
Critical acclaim: Holy Motors

Influence: I don't see any.

I see them as very close and we don't have to swap them. What's your takes?

If we're going by the decade lists, I'd think that 128 for the 90s > 119 for the 10s.

I'd agree with that.

Reswapped.

This is a bit nit-picky and might not be relevant - but we currently have "Prince of Darkness" on the Top Horror List, but not "Christine"

Not a fan of that idea. I'd even have Starman before PoD.

Sounds good, I'm honestly not sure why we didn't include "Christine" on the horror movie list.

Lists look pretty solid.

Looks good to me - I would maybe consider switching "Beauty and the Beast" + "Gods and Monsters," as the first was not well critically received and the second won an Oscar (but unless you think the popularity win is large enough to pull ahead).

Wikipedia wrote:The film received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised its cast, songs, and visual detail.

Wikipedia wrote:On Rotten Tomatoes, a review aggregator, the film has an approval rating of 71% based on 384 reviews and an average rating of 6.7/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "With an enchanting cast, beautifully crafted songs, and a painterly eye for detail, Beauty and the Beast offers a faithful yet fresh retelling that honors its beloved source material." On Metacritic, the film has a score of 65 out of 100 based on 47 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews". In CinemaScore polls, audiences gave the film an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale.

All in all I'd say B&tB's win in popularity is significantly bigger than G&M's in acclaim.

I hated Beauty and the Beast btw.

Makes sense - for some reason in my memory I thought Beauty + Beast had under a 50 on metacritic or something.
