I hope 'Dick Tracy' can break into the top 10 someday.

Cool list, nothing remotely close to being a personal favorite, but there's some solid films in there (Scorsese, Tarantino, Terminator, Die Hard, Batman), a few I've not seen ( Shocker, Death Wish, South Park) and a couple I didn't like at all ( Blair Witch, Suicide Squad) Thank you. I know Im alone with Suicide Squad but I just have such a fun time with it.

The Hateful Eight above Pulp Fiction? Clearly you're some kind of asshole. I assume this is the kind of response you wanted?

Questions/comments are very welcome. 12. Licence to Kill (1989) I had mentioned earlier in this thread that "Licence to Kill (1989) is a very underrated Bond film IMO and a particular favorite of mine." Your list inspired me create a new quote thread is for "Licence to Kill" (1989). Feel free to add your own quote/picture combinations. Star Trek images are not a requirement. The only requirement is to have fun.

An understandable list with many popular movies. Better than these contrarians who have their top 25 movies filled with obscure, black and white continental movies from the 1930s that no one's ever heard of.

"Die Hard" is the only really good one on the list, but a couple are interesting and risk taking. The dark comedy of Return of the Living Dead had appeal, but I don't see how it gets top 25 appeal, unless you lived most of your life in Louisville like I did, and realize that it being nuked is a good thing.
"License to Kill" is a "rebel" choice for a Bond film. I think I can understand that one.
"Dick Tracy" is one I only saw glimpses of, but it seems to be an okay movie.
"South Park" is very funny most of the time, because the creators usually don't preach, but when they do preach, they aren't subtle about it, and they get very racist in the Nazi way.
The others that I've seen I rank 2/10 or less.
Not enough "risk taking rebellious picks" on the list. Just the three mentioned (Return, License, Dick), while the others are all much lauded on this website by the Beavis crowd, so you're no "rebel spirit".
