after all the results are revealed i want ppl who are familiar with/seen most/all of the movies to rank them in order of most-to-least action-y

Nah, the top placing Kurt Russell pic will be Elvis 2: 3,000 Miles To Graceland.

The Thing is amazing/his best role but dunno if enough people consider it an "action" movie
The Thing is one of my top 10 fav movies of all time but I don't know it's an action movie! I don't think I would have voted for it.

If Jaws counts as an action movie ...
― Josh in Chicago, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:56 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah well I didn't think that did either!
― wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 20:59 (twelve years ago) link
Which means that, yes, The Thing will definitely place which is fine by me because it rules.
omar just resolved today's posts with action

Yah, there's definitely some line blurring there. It's also all-time top 10 for me.
Damnit, I could have voted for The Hidden!

the hidden is great

The Thing was easy because it meant more Kurt Russel AND more John Carpenter on my list.
― Unleash the Chang (he did what!) (Austerity Ponies), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 21:08 (twelve years ago) link
enough problems resolved by flamethrowers and explosives that I was happy to vote for it.

I can't imagine anyone voting for IB
― Unleash the Chang (he did what!) (Austerity Ponies), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:11 (twelve years ago) link
i'd've thought you couldn't vote for something that clearly isn't an action movie but well here we are
― dayove cool (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:12 (twelve years ago) link
also yes The Hidden is fucking a but i don't suppose it's gonna make it now

Shit if i knew Hidden was allowed, i would have voted for Funny Games
― Number None, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:16 (twelve years ago) link
tbh I can't hate on IB if only because I spotted the tell in the cellar without needing the movie to tell me about it
― (thinks and smiles) (DJP), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:16 (twelve years ago) link
omfg Funny Games is such horseshit

makes u think
what does Funny Games have to do with The Hidden?

guess that joke was too highbrow for this thread
― Number None, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:18 (twelve years ago) link
if I had bothered to vote it would have been the lone Tarantino entry but also pretty close to the top. such an amazing movie.
― max buzzword (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:19 (twelve years ago) link
i really rate IB but since it's not an action movie it was pretty easy to leave off my ballot
― dayove cool (Noodle Vague), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:19 (twelve years ago) link
Death Proof > IB, at the end of the day

ib is cool not sure why its so divisive around here, i mean w/e
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:21 (twelve years ago) link
actually didn't Tarantino manage to get his name tacked onto Iron Monkey? I would have voted that over any of his actual films
― (thinks and smiles) (DJP), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:21 (twelve years ago) link
fuck what's the movie about the magic fighter plane that downloads all the music on the internet and goes mental? shd've voted for that

this is a, how you say, interesting contention. I like Death Proof a lot, but the dialogue with the first set of girls really detracts imho

I really liked IB. Better than DP I think but they're pretty different movies so it's tough to compare.
― wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 22:27 (twelve years ago) link
i mean STEALTH is not very good but its mentalism is gung ho and hilarious which is more than can be said for some of the o_O movies on this list
