"You don't pick your favorites, your favorites pick you."
Couldn't've said it better.
Wait no that doesn't make any sense.
Movies don't pick, they're not sentient. This doesn't even sound like some philosophical idea, it's just nonsense.
Maybe James means when you think about your favorite movies the best one "sticks with you" which I kinda understand. But in truth it's more like which one do you stick to more?
So this saying is not very clever.
@@YowLife Dude. I pity you.
@@GA-1st
Right back at ya.
@@YowLife Your name suggests it all, LowLife...
@@YowLife i would explain it to you but i dont want to get whoooshed
It's a relief to find a RUclips film critic who actually cares about the history of film, and his able to explain his stances in an informed and articulate manner.
KRhetor I think if we knew James as the Angry Film Nerd he would post A LOT more. Pretty obvious where his passion is. Could listen to him talk about film all day...
KRhetor that's not to say his videogame knowledge is poor. The guy is just the biggest nerd ever
Yes. Gotta love James!
If you want to see some great lovers of film and structured discussion,.....Give RED LETTER MEDIA a try. Cinemassacre has been my favorite since it's begun...but Red Letter Media are scraping the edge with Cinemassacre.
That may be so, but he likes what he likes. These 50 movies all meant something for him, so it is what it is. This is not a top 50 best movies for him, this is a top 50 favorite movies after all.
MrCornholio93 Try CineFix for some good in depth film analysis
I'm surprised that The Thing, Robocop, Blade Runner, Alien and Predator weren't on the list.
Alien was a runner up (check description).
@VashDraven James Prefers the Thing from Another World (1951) IIRC
Respect to James I like the John Carpenter The Thing had awesome special effects. Very well done, and it was something different same concept but instead of a monster from outer space anyone could be The Thing.
😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
and Enter the Dragon ...and ...The Warriors
It's amazing how many Simpsons episodes are based on your top 50 movies.
This is part of what made the golden era of the Simpsons so great, they referenced timeless classics instead of whatever was popular at the time. They also integrated them so well you could still enjoy the joke even if you didn't know the reference.
The list and Simpson references point to a film geek/kid of the 80's demographic.
James' voice has always been calming to me.
Lmao then you watch avgn
I feel exactly the same! Maybe it’s a James thing
Not Till Angry Video Game Nerd
Yes
Great list. You should do Top 50 Video Games sometime.
That would be neat
Super Mario 3 would be #1
James Henderson Super Mario Brothers 2, babyyyy!!
Easy, here is the top 10
1. Hong Kong 97
2. Dr Jekyll and Mister Hyde
3. Crazy Buss
4. Desert Buss
5. Cheetamen 2
6. Cheetamen
7. Action 52
8. Dark Castle
9. Big Rigs
10. Wizard of Oz
You forgot Plumber Don't Wear Ties lol.
I don't necessarily have one favorite film, but King Kong is probably the most important film to me creatively. Saw it at just the right age, got me into sculpture, stop motion, Ray Harryhausen's work, special effects, and an appreciate for the art of filmmaking. Simply a magical film.
A million thank you’s for including “The Sword in the Stone”! That film ignited a now life-long obsession with all things Arthurian (and is one of only 3 Arthurian films I would recommend, along with “Excalibur” and “Monty Python and the Holy Grail).
What do you think of "Camelot"?
Don't know why but I just like to hear James talking about anything. It's just interesting and also relaxing somehow...
Ditto,so calm and so wise ,he just imparts so much knowledge ,and no ego.
go outside mate geez
Yes
He's a talented guy talking his flims with great detail
There is no other internet personality I have stuck with for so long, I have been watching you for over 10 years now. I think this is because not only do you have variety in the content you create, gaming, films, books etc but your tastes are so similar to mine. There are so many films in this list that would be in my top 50, 3 out of your top 5 are also in mine. These are some of the reasons why you've always been such an inspiration of mine, would love to meet you one day. Cheers James.
cool name
I don't even think that's the reason. I don't play games, and I'm not that big of a movie guy... But neither one of those factors prevent me to enjoy thoroughly everything this guy does. I'd guess that we all keep coming back to James because it's crystal clear, for all of us, that everything he makes is absolutely driven by the love he has for what he does. Anyway, that would be my theory.
Shawshank Redemption...one of my top three choices.
Right?? Strange he didn't have that.. or The Thing
I remember rewatching The last crusade with my dad and we both enjoyed it, especially the humour.
Easily one of my favourite films right now
That was the only film of the trilogy I saw in the theaters.
Trilogy
There are only 3
JUST THREE.
The effects in Jurassic Park are still better than most effects you see today in movies. This movie has stood the test of time like a champ.
I know, it's so good. You know a movie ages well when the only thing that looks dated is the then-modern technology.
I agree, in some parts it doesn't hold up though. But the thing with films today I can always know when something is CG, it's not the look really, it's the animation. The stilted animation of the animatronics actually work in JP's favour whereas animators go too overboard when they animate creatures sometimes.
'...still better than most effects you see today..."
Yeah, no, that's bullshit. It is an incredible movie, easily in my top 10, but there is no shame in admitting that it is an older movie.
FlyingShazbot Yeah the T-Rex looks great in rain (obviously because it's dark) but there are numerous scenes where the CGI really shows it's age like when the velociraptors are in the kitchen.
Oh the triggers... wow
"Son... they got us"
My favorite part of Last Crusade, that bit is just so great
One thing I love about these sorts of lists is being able to see how diverse we all are. You get to see where you are similar but also different to others and that's really interesting to me. For example, I love North by Northwest and Rear Window and I was happy to see them both in this top 25 but I was also quite surprised to see Sword in the Stone on here, which I rarely hear mentioned, and am honestly not all that fond of. It's fascinating to see how someone else views cinema, how they've been influenced by it, their tastes and all that.
Ah... Jurassic Park. Bravo, Good Sir.
After careful consideration, I've decided not to endorse your park
I agree with this sentiment.
@Dino king s Studios The effects and animatronics in that movie are absolutely insane.
The effects used on the Brachiosaurus, Triceratops, Raptors and T Rex still look fantastic.
Spared no expense.
There are plenty of movies on this list I've not seen but herd of but the way James explains them makes me want to check them out
Yo where's Grown Ups 2?
Matt White! Retarded movie.
+Jordan Shaw, Grown Ups 2 is da best movie I've evr sen in ma lyfe. Its a cultural phenomenon that changes the way you see reality while also being an entertaining movie for the whole family. Adam Sandler is a comedic genius whose films rival those of Orson Welles and Stanley Kubrick. Sure critics thought it was low brow and panned it but only because they didn't understand the subtle nuances of Sandler's auteur style. Fuck The Godfather, fuck Star Wars, fuck Pulp Fiction; Grown Ups 2 is the best movie of all time.
fork in the brain
CHAULKLET WASTED
Matt White! Grown Ups 2 sucked!
Above all, the majority of the films on your list emit an essence of fun and enjoyment. You seem to appreciate the sheer joy of cinema. This was a great watch with a lot of fascinating personal moments - thanks!

You just gave us like a hundred movies ....
I loved A Serious Man! Glad to see it on the list!
This is Spinal Tap should have been #11.
It is a must to watch Spinal Tap with the sound volume on level 11.
Why? It's his list.
+The Gunslinger See the movie and you will understand ;)
It's a joke for those who seen the movie...ill give you a hint, it has to do with volume~
yeah missed opportunity there!
It was a mad, mad, mad, mad wait for this.
DJDEFSTROKE lol
I can't wait until you make a full-length horror film.
Really?
@@maddiequestionmark no
You can never have enough Hitchcock
Where's Tommy Wiseau's "The Room"?!
I heard it was supposed to be #1 but James removed it after a heated argument over Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde which is Wiseau's favourite game.
@@taz0k2 What are you talking about
I never hit you 🤣🤣
@@zayderex2393 its his own opinion
number 51
WHAT? *MANOS THE HANDS OF FATE* IS YOUR FAVOURITE MOVIE?????????
manos... the hands of... fate...
You ever hear of "Manos"?
I take care of the place while the master is awayy.........
great reviews..a bit mainstream box office .. remember your Forey roots lad. carry-on
#MST3K
No way! It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World is one of my absolute favorite movies as well!
26:14 Warning! Megadeth does NOT appear on the soundtrack. (Great to see so much Hitch on your list though.)
I could listen to you talk all day ! Please do more lists , maybe video games ? Or tv shows next ?
Haven't you seen his video game reviews?!??? If you haven't, GO SEE THEM!!! :-D
Awww, I though number 1 was gonna be Paul Blart: Mall Cop :(
David Sjökvist Grown ups is the best movie ever *sarcasm*
David Sjökvist I thought it would be Freddy Got Fingered
lotius Freddy got fingered is the best movie ever.The talented cast,the amazing cinematography,the intricate plot,the quality humor and a strong message make it a legendary film
Paul Blart 2 was way better, don't be a fucking mainstream normie.
All wrong it's definitely the Boss Baby. Masterpiece right there.
Does anyone else watch videos like this to get new movie recommendations?
Yes! Me! Now!
Blade Runner, Alien, The Thing (1980), Invasion of Body Snatchers (1978), Dark Crystal would all be on my list. Great list, you have a lot of courage putting your top 50 out there for the internet mobs to digest.
Sorry to be THAT guy but the John Carpenter The Thing came out in 1982. Sorry, it's my favorite movie lol.
Definitely one of the greatest remakes ever.
Me personally, I love this film. Me personally thought this film was cool, very cool. Now, I don't know about you, but me personally, I really loved this film.
AT-STs! AT-STs!
Is this comment replacing comments about Mike's dick?
Very cool
people talk in RLM memes on other channels? how embarrassing.
so many vistas
I love the Simpsons parody of IT'S A MAD,MAD,MAD,MAD WORLD.
Sammy Lane
"what's the matter with you kid, you told me this stream was shallow!" - Bart waves as the guy's car sinks lmao
Seems like the Terminator is threatening him with the gun 😂
I watched The Great Escape when I was 11 years old while I was in class. I also watched Animal farm that year. I look back and I'm quite thankful that my Teacher had the class/me watch these, I didn't fully understand them at the time, I thought I did, and it made me re-look up these films and stories over and over in my life.
To me Star Wars will always be my #1. I was fortunate enough to see it in theaters when it released, and childhood was never the same after that.
No Ghostbusters (2016) ? I thought it would be #1 James
Was that sarcasm?
@@crimeexpocon noooo.
@@crimeexpocon yep.
#2 should be sharknado
@Michael Silve It's so bad, it goes from the worstest to everyone's bestest movie of all time.
I was expecting the AVGN movie to be #1 🙈
cantona222: Haha
Thanks u fuckin prick
I like it better than a few of his top 50. Lol
Great list and after nearly a decade of watching James Rolfe I can see how he was influenced by some of the list. My own top 10, and this is chronological as I can't muster the energy and effort to list them in terms of quality:
Planet of the Apes, Fiddler on the Roof, The Godfather, Rocky, Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope, Amadeus, Beauty & The Beast, Spirited Away, Marvel's The Avengers, Inside Out.
I'd say that Jurassic Park surpasses a lot of special effects even in today's day in age.
Some purposes are intensive though.....
I agree with the list 99%, that other 1 % ? The Godfather was left out.
The special effects in the Thief Of Bagdad (1940) still look better than most CGI. I've seen animatronics used well before in movies, e.g. The NeverEnding Story.
Rolfie never disappoints me. Thumbs up.
lelabotoxique 69th like
He listed Ghostbusters under horror in his description...and all this time I thought it was a comedy 😂.
10) Bullit
9) Dog day afternoon
8) Groundhog day
7) Back to the future
6) Grand Budapest hotel
5) Schindlers list
4) Goodfellas
3) The sound of music
2)West side story
1) AMADEUS
More like swindlers fiction.
Wow, now I know where The Simpsons got the idea for the "T" episode
Jayne Sixx and "Bart of Darkness" when Bart broke his leg and watched the neighborhood through his window til he thought Ned Flanders murdered Maud
Ya really, so many major films and such that I feel like I've seen before even though I haven't, only to realize they were Simpsons eps. That show really permeated every pore of pop culture and your childhood if you grew up anytime in around the 90s seems like.
Another one. You remember the episode where Maggie and the other babies lay out a plan to escape the day care or whatever it was they were in? That was a direct homage to The Great Escape and it also uses the same music.
Yeah it's amazing how many movie and music references are in The Simpsons. I grew up in the 90's but still haven't seen enough movies from the 40 and beyond. I watch loads of 70's, 80's and 90's movies. I really need to go back further.
SIMPSONS DID IT! SIMPSONS DID IT!!
Wow I'm surprised to see the 7 faces of dr Lao. That has always been one of my very favorite movies and you don't hear it mentioned too often.
I thought for sure that an "Alien" film would be on this list!
Just goes to show how many movies there are!
I love the Tim Burton “Batman”. When I saw the dark knight I compared it to those Tim Burton films. Even though most people don’t. I think Michael Keaton is the best Batman.
Same happens to me with batman begins i like it more than the dark knight because of the story and Gotham's aesthetic its something that gives gotham a style wich is one of the reasons batman 89 is my second favorite , gotham was perfect in that film
andres navarro Perfect as in looking like a studio lot at Warner Brothers?
"Terminator 2" was on his list, so I´m happy.
Now you do realize, according to rule #4217 section (b) subsection III of the internet, you must now review It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World.
he already did
i love george mcfly´s laugh :D
Ah ah ah ah.
Interesting retrospective. It is beautiful to remember our movies and those that came before. Groundhog Day, Terminator. Gremlins, and Back to the Future are among my favorites too.
Can't believe ghostbusters 2016 was not on the list... BLOODY DISGRACEFUL!!!
P.S... Now that's what you call sarcasm.
Its because James is just a misogynistic nerd who cant stand to see mediocre women comedians ruin something thats considered to be a perfect movie.
I really hope you're joking right now
Bokken2006 Did you not read the P.S.?
I am quite suprised that Who Framed Roger Rabbit isn't in your top 50
Roger Rabbit is kinda... Well, I guess if comedies are your thing... Well, there's also Jessica Rabbit... ;-D
I hear the video game is one of his favorites.
I appreciate that even though you have Batman (1989) on this list, you still acknowledge its narrative structure is flawed, unlike Nostalgia Critic, who likes to pretend there's nothing wrong with it.
SWORD IN THE STONE!!!! Man. Nobody puts this movie on their favorites lists, and its in my top 3. Also one of the only disney movies I can still watch and don't hate the songs in it. Props.
What's wrong with Disney songs?
Thanks for sharing your list. I would have added some David Lynch, Terry Gilliam, and more Stanley Kubrick. I feel these three are the most creative directors of all time.
What about lord of the rings trilogy i consider it as one of my favourite movies
My top 50 list: Super heroes, sci fi, and action films
Cinemassacre's top 50: A man of culture.
I totally agree with most of your picks. Some of my personal favs would have to be: return to oz, repo man, total recall, suburbia, They live, into the Blue, over the edge, heavy metal. I don't know. I could go on and on
This was a great list. I was eagerly awaiting this second part and was not disappointed.
I thought you were going to mention the movie Rat Race when you were talking about It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World. Rat Race's premise was so heavily inspired by that movie. Rat Race also featured a lot of great actors and cameos from great actors from its time.
Maybe you will gonna do video with your favourites Cartoons ?
You know Dofus? Wakfu? The Dofus movie?
Mateusz Kowalski I'd like to see Mike do that one
Mateusz Kowalski
Good Idea
Mateusz Kowalski He doesn't watch a lot of cartoons, or at the very least, he hasn't since the 80's. I think his favorites are Transformers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the Ghostbusters cartoon.
Mateusz Kowalski doubt it. He himself said he missed most of the 90's cartoons because he was into films at the time.
Here's my Top 10 All Time Favorite Movies
Bold are favorites of a trilogy
1.) Jaws (1975)
2.) Star Wars Original Trilogy (*1977*,1980,1983)
3.) Toy Story Trilogy (1995,*1999*,2010)
4.) Fantasia (1940)
5.) The Dark Knight Trilogy (2005,*2008*,2012)
6.) The Wizard of Oz (1939)
7.) The Princess Bride (1987)
8.) The Terminator Duology (1984, *1991*)
9.) Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)
10.) The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (2001,*2002*,2003)
LMAO "little song little dance Batman's head on a Lance" freaking great
"Never rub another man's Rhubarb"
My favorite number 1 is The Thing.
No CGI used. Must have taken hours to put all the different creatures together not to mention how many takes done.
The thing is incredible
My top five films (in release order, because I could never actually pick a favourite):
- Metropolis (1927)
- The Producers (1968)
- Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)
- The Evil Dead (1981)
- Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog (2008)
Nick Ferrazza oooh, metropolis is amazing!
jeez you're like the best at reviews. you don't tend to just elect a classic only because it's a classic. you provide a good summary on why you love each film. love your analysis.
26:16 YOU TAKE A MORTAL MAN
I UNDERSTOOD THAT REFERENCE
YEEESSS!!!!! I thought the same thing!
PUT HIM IN CONTROL
Hey James was wondering what you think of James Whale's 1932 classic The Old Dark House. I've never heard you talk about it and imo it is the greatest classic film of all time. Very spooky atmosphere and a great ensemble cast including Boris Karloff, Charles Laughton, Ernest Thesiger and Gloria (Titanic) Stuart.
Blasted Heath he already reviewed it for monster madness 09
my 10 favorites:
10: batman (1989)
9: rocky (1975)
8: die hard (1988)
7: Jurassic park (1993)
6: vertigo (1958)
5: star wars episode V (1980)
4: jaws (1975)
3: king kong (1933)
2: 2001: a space odyssey
1: citizen kane
Damn, James you brought the entire movie back to my mind with that impression at 5:59 😂👍👌
Thanks, for giving the gist of these movies in such a calm narrative. As I did not watch half of them myself, there's something to look forward to.
Jurassic Park will always be in my top ten, it was mind blowing when I went to see it back in '93 and it was a landmark film.
Excellent list!
Interesting choices. My top 5 : Alien, Nosferatu, Primer, Deliverance, Time Bandits

Dom Taylor I agree with your top 10
When you've watched every Cinemassacre vid so many times that you can tell when the script has been reused....
What?
Where is Batman And Robin? I need some ice
TF2addict i legit laughed when i read that, bravo sir.
Of the 50 films James mentioned, I've only watched 15 or 16 of them. And I thought I was a movie guy! XD
I was waiting for these, Thought I would mention them:
Christopher Reeves Superman w/Hackmans Luther
Papillon w/ McQueen and Hoffman
African Queen w/ Bogart and Hepburn
Cool Hand Luke w/ Paul Newman
Great list James, lots of good pics :)
You mentioned Paul Newman, and of course I thought of Butch and Sundance...
My top 5
-Texas Chainsaw Massacre
-Pulp Fiction
-Night of the Living Dead
-Groundhog Day
-Terminator 2
Yes! Groundhog Day! For shits and giggles I like to ask every fans opinion of this. How long do you think Phil Connors was stuck in limbo?
For me it's Shrek 2, Shrek, Shrek 3, Toy Story 4 and Die Hard
@@southbeachtalent I saw a website that said he was in there for about 8 years. I don't know if that's true, but it's still crazy.
8 and 9 came out on the same day (Gremlins & Ghostbusters)
and they both start with the letter g
Aaron Toney and end in S!
and they end with the letter s
Golden Calavera i already said that
It's alright
13:50 Johnny Depp = Ed Wood Scissorhands
Always and Forever. Just like Winona = Lydia.
I could see comparisons between you're comment about how CGI in Terminator 2 was the latest technology when it was released and The Wizard Of Oz. When I watch The Wizard Of Oz I have this strange feeling of almost being transported back in time and being amazed with colour film being the latest technology when it was made in the thirties,a technology that is taken for granted today by filmgoers.
I think T2 jumped ahead, and then JP took it another level - so I say both of them should share in the overall jump. One really proved a photoreal thing could be done, and then the other showed it could be done with things that look like living creatures.
I know its a late answer, but i totally agree
Thanks for sharing your favorite films with us, James. They are all classics and some I need to get reacquainted with. Also, I know just what you mean about "Jaws" being a "dad film". My dad loves to go fishing as well.
Shawshank redemption.
I was surprised this wasn’t on his list
Overrated
@@hikari69 if your like me and seen it at a young age it feels like a movie that was nothing like you’ve seen.
@@hikari69 how? Explain
@@scan8501 he can't, he was just trolling.
Really enjoyed waiting to see if the next choice was one of my favourites too.
Missed ' The Thing' from 82
19:56
"Is Star Wars gonna die out? But no it isn't."
Boy that didn't age well..
Technically, it didn't die out. We DID a new trilogy, for better or worst.
You may have hated the new trilogy, but The Mandalorian shows there's still life in the franchise. Let's hope they dont screw it up.

Books, videogames and tv shows
I think this is a particularly solid list. I watch "top" lists a lot and some seem like they're built for the audience, but this one seems genuine. Glad Alien was at least a runner-up.
Rocky is good and everything, but have you seen Ricky 1? You're gonna LOVE that!
Look up Ricky 1 on RUclips.
Hey Scotty
Jesus, man.
What's with the old and obscure Drunken peasants reference? So random..
hmetz1787 One of the movies on the list had a main character named Scotty.
I literally cannot hear that name without thinking of that reference. 😐
Azdrerios Yeah when I saw Vertigo, I was always thinking of Scotty from the Drunken Peasants. But that comes close too 😂
individual situation
There's a lot of movies from 93! Great list, man! Love all your vids
You're wrong about the advances of special effects. 'The Abyss' and 'Terminator 2' were huge leaps. 'The Matrix' was a huge leap. 'Spiderman' was a huge leap. 'The Lord Of The Rings' was a huge leap. 'Jurassic Park' was just the biggest because it doesn't get bigger than dinosaurs, unless you depict seas, mountains and skys as characters as more than background.
That was a very interesting mini-analysis of the confrontations between Batman and Joker in 'Batman'. I never noticed them.
The Knight at the end of The Last Crusade always used to scare me as a kid.
I like that you picked "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World" as your #1 pick. It may not be my favorite but certainly one of my favorite comedies and you described its philosophical tone perfectly. And I totally agree with your favorite scene, the Jonathan Winters rampage! May be the funniest scene ever in all of filmdom!
Blade Runner is my all time favourite, specifically the director's cut
Would totally watch an extended Rolfe review of It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World, just a gem of a film
Daaamm where is Spider-Man with legendary Bully Maguire? :(
