AFI Top 10 2004

***CaptHayfever*** · 12-13-2004, 12:56 PM

In both film and television. Source: ....AFI

Ya know, there probably won't be any new TV shows for the rest of the year, but there will definitely be more movies they might want to consider.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Friday Night Lights, but no Miracle? What are they smoking and where can I get some?

Brandon2390 · 12-13-2004, 03:32 PM

If only I hadn't heard of about half the shows/movies on those lists.

Nick · 12-13-2004, 03:46 PM

They do consider everything released before the 31st. That's why the Aviator is number one on the list even though it isn't in widespread release till Christmas day.

Also of note, must be American made, at least 60 minutes, and a fictional narrative. That knocks out farenheit, supersize me, Miracle, and the Passion (unless people really want to beat that hornet nest and say the Passion was fictional).

Friday Night Lights wasn't a non-fictional account to my best knowledge. I'm pretty sure it was a dramatization of the author's experiences, not a non-fictional piece.

At least it has Collateral and Incredibles. Probably my Top 2 movies of the year.-jay

Tonberry2k · 12-13-2004, 06:56 PM

Collateral was so good.

**Sean P Kelly** · 12-13-2004, 08:02 PM

My thoughts:

THE AVIATOR - Plan to see it

COLLATERAL - Saw it (it's good)

ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND - Own in (in other words, it's good)

FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS - Didn't see, nor plan to

THE INCREDIBLES - Saw it (it's good)

KINSEY - Haven't seen it. Don't know if I will.

MARIA FULL OF GRACE - Probably won't see it (it's a spanish film)

MILLION DOLLAR BABY - Might see it (just because it's getting Oscar buzz)

SIDEWAYS - Was wanting to see it at the Toronto Film Fest, but tickets were sold out.

SPIDER-MAN 2 - Saw it (it's good)

**Booyakasha** · 12-14-2004, 02:09 PM

What? No 'King Arthur'? No 'Harry Potter'? No 'Troy'?...well, good--they all sucked.

^Because it's alphabetical.
What's wrong with Eternal Sunshine?

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Tonberry2k · 12-15-2004, 04:07 AM

Eternal Sunshine is all kinds of awesome. I dare say it's Jim Carrey's best role to date.

And Sideways looks friggin' hilarious.

Koga · 12-15-2004, 07:00 AM

I loved Eternal Sunshine. I'ma big fan of Jim Carrey, especially when he doesn't play his usal funny face character (like Ace Ventura, The Mask).

I also really liked Collateral, The Increibles and Spider Man 2 (though I thought the original was better).

I haven't seen any of the other movies, I think most of them haven't even been released yet.

Everybody Nose · 12-18-2004, 01:38 AM

I said WTF as in: I never heard of it

OcarinaMan · 12-18-2004, 10:29 AM

WHERE IS TEH SPONEGBOB MOVIE!??

imported_Andrew · 12-18-2004, 11:56 AM

All the names and places in FNL are real, and identical to the book.

Nick · 12-18-2004, 11:49 PM

Yeah, but its still a "true" story in the sense that the Aviator is a "true" story...
