Top Fifty Geeky Movies

I just posted this to my mostly-neglected LiveJournal account. It is a reaction to this post listing the fifty geekiest movies of all time. I bolded the films I'have seen, either in their entirety, or in my judgment enough to say 'I've seen them.' I thought it was interesting to see that I had seen the top twelve.

The ones I HAVEN't seen are:

Run Lola Run
Battle Royale
Seven Samurai
Metropolis

But maybe now I should put them on my list!

You really should see Seven Samurai and Metropolis.

My memory is pretty terrible, so I can't guarantee I haven't seen these, but here's the ones I have not seen (or at least don't remember seeing):

50. Akira
47. Gattaca (can't remember for sure, so I'm listing it)
44. Run Lola Run
43. Memento
41. Lucas (I know I've seen at least part of this, but can't remember seeing all of it)
40. Sin City
37. Battle Royale
36. 12 Monkeys
34. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
29. The Big Lebowski
25. Army of Darkness (I know, I know...I can hardly believe it myself)
22. Brazil
17. Metropolis
14. Pi

I didn't score as good as Paeter.

Depends on what game we're playing. A few of those I wish I HADN'T seen! :-)
