Rocks That Movie

I can't believe I've failed to link to this already, but my good friend Shane at Rocks That Move has been blogging his 50 favorite films. He and I sort of discovered good film together, renting everything that looked worth watching (and a bunch that didn't) from every video store within driving distance of Manistee, Michigan. In a way, he was my gateway drug: he insisted that I watch this great film called Howards End, and I never looked back. Together, we started the quest to watch every film ever nominated for Best Picture, but Shane realized that there are more important things in life (I'm still not convinced!). Anyway, here's his list: Introduction, 46-50, 41-45, 36-40, 31-35, 26-30, 21-25, 16-20, 11-15, 6-10. Now he's counting down his top five individually: 5, 4, 3, 2 (new!), and now his #1 movie is up.

Along the way he posted a highly amusing alternate list for 21-25, reacting to grumblings in the comments that he hadn't included any crappy movies yet. He's still got two slots to fill, so it's not too late.
