OK I have never seen The Hidden, but major props to any movie that dares to go with the plate glass window gag AFTER the car has already run over a guy in a wheelchair. They should have finished off with a fruit cart.

I really enjoyed the super bowl movies they played during timeouts of the game
― Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 23:15 (twelve years ago) link
I also really like that movie where the popcorn and candies walk around and sing about going to the movies
― Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 15 February 2012 23:17 (twelve years ago) link

Most of the ones I haven't seen don't seem to be on instant view except for Le Femme Nikita. Should I watch that tonight or Election which, while I don't think it's placed yet, you guys seem to love?
― wolf kabob (ENBB), Wednesday, 15 February 2012 23:58 (twelve years ago) link
in keeping with the spirit of the thread, I recommend Le Femme Nikita followed immediately by Point of No Return

so presumably won't place as high as ET
terminator 2 is basically et with more guns

So is Starman. Which should make it #1.

Oh, earlier when I said that The Fifth Element was the movie I was least excited about revisiting? Well, I actually liked that movie okay so my real answer is Sin City why because fuck that movie pretty much.

Ha, I totally didn't vote for this poll, but mostly because I thought the nom list was too long. Too long, didn't vote. If there were a do-over, I would definitely do.
