Lol its Sorcerers stone not philosophers stone

All the Harry Potter movies made the list hallelujah

I guess it bespeaks age when you have only see 9 of these, and honestly, I watched Fast and Furious 6 On Demand about ten days ago because of the hype for Fast and Furious 7. I also wonder, out of sheer curiosity, how many people who have seen Avatar, I have not, in a theater, were alive in 1982 to see ET in a theater, as I was and did? I am also surprised, as befits age, that neither the original Star Wars, or Close Encounters of the Third Kind made the top 50

older movies didn't make the list because this list was not adjusted for inflation. read what it says at the bottom

These are mostly guys movies that i watch with my bf :o

I think I've seen all of them

My favourite did not make the list, Sahara

I feel like half of these are LOTR and Harry Potter. I've got nothing against them but it doesn't seem right for the rest of the movie world.

I want to watch movies inspirational , are anyone now ??
