A note from Jakob (the editor) on video gear:
There are a lot of things we use to make videos that I wouldn't recommend people to use for theirs. It's just stuff we had on hand, so it's what we use. That being said, there are things we use that I would recommend, and those are listed below. I'm working on putting together a FULL recommended list of equipment to get your videos looking super sharp. That's coming soon :)

Nice list my friend!
Hilarious. Excellent episode and super fun! Now do TV shows!
Got to let these bruises fade 😂
My pick for period piece is Master and Commander: Far Side of the World. A great napoleonic naval adventure and has some great acting! Paul Bettany is fantastic as usual.
Wonderful
Yessss!
Also, quotable line from Return of the King off the top of my head: "My friends, you bow to no one."
Nice!
@@Talking_Story "I am no man."
@@coryleekoch3659 good 1!
That was FUN!!! Thank you for the laughs 😂😂😂
Thank you for giving it a watch!
Princess Bride beating ROTK...how dare you (but very understandable) but how dare you
😂I’m such a softee romantic.
“ You bow to no one” , “ For Frodo!!!” “ What say you!”
@@heidi6281 Hello my name is Inigo Montoya…I know you can fill in the rest.
My Cousin Vinny is the greatest comedy of all time and I will die on that hill
A great hill to die on my friend!
This was a great video! I need to do some movie watching though because I was lost until about 20 minutes in when you got to Best Sports Flick lol.
So much goodness waiting for you Darko!
Looking forward to diving into this video
Glad to see some youthful enthusiasm for filmmaking. In my 20+ year experience in the film industry, the greatest advice I was ever told apart from watching as many different types of films as possible was, “turn up on time and don’t be a jerk!”
Words to live by!
The answer for best western is “Tombstone”:
I’m your huckleberry
That’s just my game
I got two guns, one for each of ya
Or 3:10 to Yuma.
Also the new Dune flicks are absolute accomplishments for film as far as sci fi
Hard to argue any of those choices
Fun video! Some of my favorite films are Kill bill, Fight Club, A fistful of Dollars, Alien, The Big Lebowski.
That is 1 sweeet list I got there.
I remember when a soundtrack made a movie and I think about specific scenes when I hear the song. Some of my favorites. Warriors theme from the Warriors. Shake your tail feather from Blues Brothers. Showdown from Kingpin. Build me up buttercup, end credits from Something About Mary. Come and get your love from Guardians of the Galaxy. I could go on and on but the Rocky theme from the fight during Rocky 1. I tear up every single time.
Oh that theme leaves me in a puddle!
I guess this would be in the Underrated Category... but I never hear people mention Secondhand Lions. Not the greatest film for any category, but still. Loved this style of video.
I will add that 1 to my list. Thanks!
I'm very much not a film buff, but sure I'll make a fool of myself and atone by watching some of the movies on y'all's lists later.
Drama: Apollo 13
Comedy: The Lost World- Jurassic Park
Musical: I'll go basic music major, West Side Story (the OG movie, haven't seen the more recent one)
Creature Feature: The Fly
Period Piece: I dunno, The Aviator
Whodunnit: The Usual Suspects
Western: Tombstone
Sci-fi: 2001
Fantasy: Princess Mononoke
Superhero: Raimi Spiderman
Not a film buff? look at that list!
@@Talking_Story Eh, I was the beneficiary of people showing me most of these movies, I didn't seek them out for myself. So no, not a film buff.
I applaud you on "The Princess Bride", that movie is nothing short of incredible.
To some degree, in the Rom Com section, I was expecting someone to bring up any of the Before movies from Linklater. I think the 2nd one, "Before Sunset" would have swayed you.
I need to see that! Putting on my list now thanks!
Great movies! You need a Best Time Travel category, Back to the Future, with an honorable mention for Primer
Back to the Future hands down
This was a great discussion! I would totally go with Legend for fantasy. I was hoping that was what you were thinking of, and it was! Sleepless in Seattle was my pick for RomCom. Dark Knight was perfection for superheroes. I would have put Princess Bride in the comedy pick.
Princess Bride is so great it could crash several categories!
@@Talking_Story so true!
As someone who maybe watches two movies a year, this video had ZERO business being this entertaining and fun to watch lol. Definitely adding some to my watch list, seems like I have some catching up to do! 🤣
Absolutely! Let me know what u watch. Thanks as always Esmay.
I don’t know if this is already planned. But I’d love a video of you talking about your favourite comic runs!!
I could do that! Great idea thanks!
Some excellent picks. I'll join in on the fun since I absolutely love films.
DRAMA - Red Beard
COMEDY - Young Frankenstein
MUSICAL - Rocky Horror Picture Show
CREATURE FEATURE - Alien
PERIOD PIECE - Seven Samurai

Amazing! We have some crossover I see.
@@Talking_Story I originally had Dr Stranglove as my favourite comedy. But once you put satire as a genre it gave me the opportunity to give Young Frankenstein some much deserved love.
@@StElna that’s Frank-en-shteeeen!
@@Talking_Story hahaha. Well played.
John, you didn't mention the western that might have swayed you. was it "Unforgiven," by chance? "Once Upon a Time in the West"?
Unforgiven. Yep!
@@Talking_Story heck yeah
I agree with dark knight BUT Logan was pretty amazing. A western given an X-men wallpaper
It was great’
Hi from Ukraine !:)This video was just great. John, how about The Deer Hunter for the best drama?(it’s not better than “one flew..” but on same level in my opinion). Best comedy for me is definitely The Big Lebowski.
Anyway I liked very much your picks, John, great stuff.
Wow hello Ukraine! Deer Hunter is an amazing flick! Thanks so much for tuning in.
These are my ever changing list Loved the video guys!
Drama - Nightcrawler
Comedy - In Bruge

Period Piece - There will be Blood (not sure if its a period piece but its great)
Whodunnit - Memories of Murder
Western - The Revenant
Sports Flick - I Tonya
Sci-fi - Blade Runner 2049 (Sorry John but the new one is slight better than the original in my opinion)
Fantasy - Lord of the Rings Return of the king
Superhero - i preferred Batman Begins to the Dark knight for some reason
Satire - Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri (i'm not sure if this counts)
Rom Com - Rye Lane
Great choices all. My fav playwright makes 2 appearances in your list couldn’t be happier!
@@Talking_Story Martin Mcdonagh? I went to see The Pillowman at my local theatre and I really enjoyed it! :)
@@OhaDollar thats the 1! Love Pillowman!
Great video and great movies. I've some alternatives/suggestions for few category. Drama: "Mission"; Satire: "Ronal the Barbarian"; Period: "Z"; Commedy: "Top Secret"; Sci-Fi: "Rollerball"; Fantasy: "Wolfhound"; Musical; "The Rocky Horror Picture Show"; Western "El Dorado".
Rocky Horror? Another Tim Curry gem!
I have some movies to watch! Loved watching this!
Thanks so much!
AMADEUS is so good! I had no idea it was a broadway show! 😮
I’ve read 2001 Space Odyssey but still haven’t made it all the way through the movie 😅. I love that it starts with Strauss’s Also Sprach Zarathustra. 😊
Legend, Labyrinth, Princess Bride, and Return of the King are some of my favorite movies! I don’t think I could choose. That’s like choosing which finger to chop off. 😫
When Harry Met Sally is so good!!!
Loved this! ❤
Thanks so much Johanna and please no finger cutting!

To Kill A Mockingbird; Tootsie;Fiddler On The Roof; The Fly; Lawrence Of Arabia; Rear Window; Treasure of Sierra Madre; the Natural; 2001 Space Odyssey;Wizard of Oz; Dark Knight; Pretty Woman
That’s an amazing list!
You know it’s going to be a fun video when the Nerf gun makes an appearance. I agreed with a lot of y’all’s choices. The ones I had a different opinion on are:
Drama - Road to Perdition
Sports - Million Dollar Baby
Sci-Fi - Everything Everywhere All At Once… you can fight me on this one for it being in the sci-fi category 😂
I would not fight you for any of those choices! Wonderful!
Speaking of personal favourites, there are two constants I have always had on my top 5: The Historical War Drama «Master & Commander» from 2003 by Peter Weir and the Musical Comedy «Blues Brothers» from 1980 by John Landis. I always have a though choice choosing my favorite David Lean movie between «Lawrence of Arabia» and «Dr. Zhivago», right now I will go for «Dr. Zhivago» (Julie Christie as Lara might be the most beautiful person that have ever existed!). Ingmar Bergman’s «The Seventh Seal» from 1957: It is downright fascinating how one of the most iconic, reflected and life-affirming movies ever was made on a shoestring budget! And since I am in a Romantic mood (as my pick of «Dr. Zhivago» also might indicate), I will choose «A Room With A View» from 1985 by James Ivory to round up my Top 5 favourites!😄
Lawrence of Arabia is amazing!
@@Talking_Story It is amazing!
«The Usual Suspects» and «Legend» are also fantastic choices! «Alien»/«Aliens» for me on Creature Feature and Ridley Scott’s «Blade Runner» is also a good choice on Sci-Fi!
Action Movie I kinda have to divide into straightforward, such as John Woo’s «Hard Boiled» from 1992 or Brian de Palma’s «The Untouchables» from 1987, and chessy: 1989’s «Road House» or Tony Scott’s «Top Gun»! 😄
@@MacScarfield yes! Bring on those cheesy choices!
Best drama is tough. 12 Angry is really good. My favorite comedy- either Holy Grail or Rat Race. Musical- either Sound of music or Chicago. Creature feature for me has to be Aliens. But the Fly is really good too. Oh and Jaws. Ugh. Tough category. Amadeus is amazing, it’s probably the movie that made period pieces one of my favorites. Schindler’s List is amazing also. Cinematically I think Schindler’s List would have to win for me. My favorite western is old school How the West Was Won. Both True Grit movies are awesome. Sports movie is SO hard. I love all the Rocky movies, but I almost like Creed movies better. We are Marshal is amazing, Secretariet I love also but it’s not in the same league.
My favorite movie type is sweeping historical epics however and my favorite movie is Last of the Mohicans with Daniel Day Lewis. It’s the perfect combination of action, romance, amazing musical score, and stunning cinematography. Sci fi is really rough to pick- 2001 is amazing, but it’s so different from movies like Aliens or the amazing Close Encounters of a Third Time. Mad Max movies are great. All the LoTR movies and amazing, my nostalgia fantasy pick would be The Neverending Story. Superhero would have to be Superman v Batman- it’s so frustrating and has so much tension. Rom-com of course When Harry met Sally.
Amazing choices! Thanks so much for sharing.
John! I don’t have time to both read and watch EVERYTHING you guys recommend!
Welcome to my world! 😂
Shawshank Redemption!? Lawrence of Arabia!? Planes, Trains, & Automobiles!?
Yes, Yes and yes all amazing!
Once Upon A Time In The West, The Searchers, True Grit(Coen) Tombstone, The Unforgiven, Old Henry, Lonesome Dove…probably way more I could list.
Blazing Saddles as comedy or satire would be way high on my list.
The Dark Knight can’t be beat in Superhero category.
No Country For Old Men, The Godfather, Gladiator, Pulp Fiction all are on my top movies of all time list.
If you haven’t read the novel True Grit, I can’t recommend it enough.
The Coen brothers did a fantastic job adapting it but the original novel needs to be read. It is very short and could be read in a day or two. Lonesome Dove absolutely should be read as it is one of the greatest novels of all time.
Lonesome is on my stack. Great picks. I have read True Grit. My father made sure of that. Has been a lot of years though.
What a great video! Amadeus was a great, unexpected pick!
Thanks guys!
The English Patient/
Stripes/
Fiddler on the Roof/
Empire of the Sun/
North by Northwest/
Dances with Wolves/
Pride of the Yankees/
Planet of the Apes ( 1968)/
Raiders of the Lost Ark/
The Fellowship of the Ring/
Superman (1979)/
Love Actually/
Lately, I just love 1970’s Burt Reynolds and of course Damien Lewis ( but he is a tv star)
70’s Reynolds. Heck yeah. I thought of Love Actually after we made this. That 1 gets me every time!
Great list by the way Heidi!
I won’t hit all the categories, but here’s some of my personal faves:
Drama - Rain Man
Action - Raiders of the Lost Ark or John Wick (Die Hard is awesome…but it’s a Christmas movie! 😁)
Comedy - Coming To America
Western - “Say when…” Tombstone!
Creature Feature - Jaws or American Werewolf in London (but The Fly is solid)
Sci-fi - Back to the Future
Superhero - Superman: The Movie (Dark Knight is objectively better, but my argument is without Donner’s Superman, we may not have the category as it is today at all)
Whodunnit - The aforementioned Clue, but Seven and Usual Suspects are up there for the serious whodunnits.
Satire - Robocop
Sports flick - Agree with Rocky wholeheartedly!
Tough to argue against some of those Stephen! Thanks my friend.
Agreed! Now hand over that Nerf! You have one untouched ear that needs some attention!
@@JustBSingProductions 😂
This was a great, and very chaotic, video. How’d you get swayed from The Thing though?! Anyway, this was great. I guess I should get mine out of the way.
Drama: Twelve Angry Men
Comedy: Monty Python and The Holy Grail (though Raising Arizona is my favorite Coen comedy)
Best Musical: I don’t know, La La Land maybe? I don’t watch a lot of musicals.
Creature Feature: The Thing. There can be only one.
Best Period Piece: There Will Be Blood, though Amadeus is a great pick too. One of the perfect films ever made.
Whodunit: Se7en, though I also like Clue and Chinatown a lot too.
Western: Once Upon a Time in The West
Sports Flick: Warrior
Best SF: either A Clockwork Orange or 2001. It’s an impossible gambit.
Best Fantasy: The Seventh Seal
Best Superhero: The Dark Knight, there can be only one.
Best Rom Com: Shaun of The Dead maybe, again I don’t watch a lot of rom coms lol.
Great video as always!
You had great picks! Would expect nothing less from my Booktube nephew!
From what i know 2001 is not an adaptation, the book is actually a novelization of the movie...Arthur Clarke wrote it as he was writing the script for the movie with Kubrick
Kubrick and Clarke worked on both at the same time. Book and flick. The flick was released first but I feel the novel is more than just a novelization of the movie. Chicken and egg kinda thing 😀
And such a great book! Clarke was such an original thinker
@@edoardoserpelloni8311 absolutely!
I need your son to become a narrator. His voice is very calming lol
He is quite a zen dude.
I'm kinda a weirdo when it comes to movies. I love movies but haven't watched that many if I'm being honest 😅 Plus I struggle to remember which movies I have watched. If I hear the title or see the cover/poster I can go "Oh yeah I remember now" XD But here are some of my favorites that I can think of.
Spider man 2 (from the original trilogy)
Alien/Aliens (can't choose between the two)
Crocodile Dundee 1 and two (again can't pick between these)
Jönssonligan (the first 5 movies) (This is a series of Swedish Heist comedies. Probably a classic by now in Sweden. That intro music is so iconic!)
Awesome list! Gonna look the Swedish series of flicks up.
@@Talking_Story I'm not sure if there is english subtitles for them unfortunatly. But the intro theme you can listen to on youtube if you're interested :)
@@emzstern I will find it
You had some great choices. My selections would be:
Best Drama: The Departed
Jakob picked the right comedy in Holy Grail
Best musical: Hamilton
I love the Thing, but to sway you on creature feature, I would say Jurassic Park.
Jakob again picked the best Action in Fury Road
Best Period Piece: The Patriot or Gladiator.
You chose a good whodunit, but to sway you I would say Clue
Best Sci Fi: Ex Machina
Sports Flick: Rudy
Fantasy: Two Towers or Return of the King
You had the best superhero choice
To sway you on Satire, I would say Big Trouble in Little China.
Rom Com: You've got mail
This was a fun video, I liked seeing all of your choices.
Awesome choices! You could busy shooting a lot of darts😂
I watch way too many movies, I have a ton in every category, I'd have to phone my list in, my typing finger will get tired. Jakob is hilarious, I couldn't stop laughing when he hit your ear.
Some extras to add are A Time to Kill, Field of Dreams or Remember the Titans, anything Mel Brooks for satire or comedy, my favorite movie of all time is Casablanca (drama, period piece). There's really too many, even the comments. A movie not many know about is Swing Kids, I'd call that historical, it's a WWII film, but again, not well known. You need a Christmas movie category because that's where Die Hard falls leaving action open. This was fun, please do it again, I can contribute more. Add a nostalgia category and pretty much every movie from the 80s would fill the board. Would Terminator and T2 fall under action or sci-fi... See, this could go on forever for me. Superhero is difficult because my dad was such a Superman fan, that I have sentimental attachment to that one (I could quote them and know where specific scenes were in each, even the terrible 4th one), but I'm partial to Michael Keaton's Batman, I like the car and tools he used. Without those, I doubt I would've been as into the MCU, I wasn't into comics and I had no clue the 90s x-men cartoon was based on comics. There were some good picks, minus the virgin suicides and juno. Should do these categories again, but with the worst picks ever, those are also fun lists.
Michael Keaton was a great Batman! We had way too much! Sure we will reload categories and darts and go at it again. Thanks for all your amazing choices!
With the exception of Lord of the rings, Gladiator is my fav!!
Gladiator is awful cool!
Raising Arizona is probably my favorite comedy too!
Yes!!
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest IS good, but drama... Dead Poets Society, hands down.
Comedy, gotta disagree with you. Princess Bride. Although I'm a huge fan of When Harry Met Sally. (note, I made this list AS I was watching :P I think of this as a comedy more than a fantay)
Musical - The Music Man.
I will agree with you on Creature Feature.
Period Piece - Amadeus is good, I was leaning Braveheart, but I think Jakob swayed me with Schindler's List. That movie was so good.
Whodunit? Yes, The Usual Suspects is untouchable. Seven was good too, but nope. Although Kevin Spacey is representing :)
Western, I'm leaning The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.
Sports - Rocky got me. I was leaning towards Remember the Titans or The Natural. Might be a three way tie.
SciFi, I'm not sure any of them stand out to me. I did like Armageddon. And The Quiet Place.
Action - unpopular pick, but I'm going with The Bourne Identity with a campy shoutout to Best of the Best (no, it's not great, but I still love that stupid movie).
Fantasy, well I put Princess Bride in comedy so I screwed myself there :D Um, maybe The Seventh Seal.
Super hero - Logan. Hands down. Or would that be claws down? IF they'd had Sabretooth in the roll of Logan's clone, it would have been absolutely perfect.
Satire, I got nothing :D
RomCom... well I didn't know you were picking that so yes, When Harry Met Sally wins here.
Take care of that cauliflower ear, John ;)
Awesome picks my friend!
Best musical is les mis or carousel
Best creature feature for me is sleepwalkers
Period piece titanic
Who done it shutter island
Western the magnificent 7
Spots flick warrior
Sci fi predator
Action flick red
Fantasy legend or krull
Superhero black panther (but heath ledger is classic)
Satire American psycho
Rom com 50 first dates
As always you are amazing Lady Dee!
The Natural for sports movie
I love The Dark Knight but my favorite will always be Winter Soldier
The Natural is a great choice!
I would've went with Raimi's Spider-Man 2
Very solid choice!
John, what would be your pick for best book to movie adaptation? Bonus for a fantasy if it's not already your top pick!
Shawshank Redemption, Stand by Me both amazing adaptations.
I think my pick would be The Last of the Mohicans.
@@Zivilin Daniel Day Lewis always great!
Gotta go with Good, Bad & the Ugly. Coen Brother's True Grit is great too. Never cared for that John Wayne bollocks 🤣
My favourite action film is The Raid. Its an Indonesian martial arts film.
Pan's Labyrinth is a great period piece, Spain during the 2nd World War and its Fantasy with weird creatures.
Superhero
Spider-man 2
Fantasy
Princess Bride
Romcom
Scott Pilgrim vs the World
10 Things I Hate About You
Definitely Maybe
Satire
Office Space
Oh those are some great 1s!
I’m not going through all of them! Haha. But sci-fi Star Wars original. But there are so many great ones. Action-love die hard but John wick has it beat! Fantasy definitely lord of the rings.
John Wick is way up there! So goood!
Drama: Cool Hand Luke
Comedy: Fish Called Wanda (Raising Arizona Ok though)
Musical: Hair
Creature: Jaws
History: ?
Western: The Outlaw Josey Wales.
Satire: Eyes Wide Shut (see what I done there) Satire!
Did see what u did there. Fish Called Wanda hadn’t thought of that 1 in a while. Great picks!
Fantasy, for me it's Stardust one of the few films that's better than the book
Stardust is awesome!
Zoolander is the best comedy, obviously
Blue Steel
And crazy stupid love!
My wife hit me with that 1 after we shot. Yes!!
John, Mask of the Phantasm is the best Batman film 😎
That is tough to argue! It is a great 1.
This might be a controversial take but the best Batman movie, in my opinion, is George Clooney's Batman & Robin.
@@Zivilin that would be controversial indeed. But you go for it my friend!
@@Talking_Story What can i say, I love cheesy b movies. 😂
I'm not sure if Everything Everywhere All at Once counts as a superhero or a comedy (I'd say it's both) but I'd say that has to be up there for superhero.
Comedy for me would be Hot Fuzz, no question.
Shaun of the Dead is great too!
@@Talking_Story Oh absolutely!
I'm surprised there was no mention of Martin McDonagh, I think you mentioned him in Chatting with Nutts and said he's your favourite playwright. I think In Bruges and Banshees of Inisherin both are excellent films!
@@maxt5319 they absolutely are! Don’t quite make the all time movie list but I love that guys stuff!
I'm disappointed none of y'all listed any anime or anime films.
I have not been a big anime watcher. Where should I start?
@@Talking_Story I would highly recommend anything Studio Ghibli. I really love Princess mononoke, Castle in the sky, Porco Rosso, and howls moving castle. Other classic series to watch I'd recommend are cowboy bebop, Vinland saga, Fullmetal alchemist: Brotherhood, Gurren Lagan, Mobile suit gundum unicorn ( or any Universal century series) and code geass. I'd also recommend anime inspired series such as blue eye samurai, avatar the last Airbender, and castlevania. Also recommend the across and into the Spiderverse films since they are heavily inspired by anime.
@@calebwelch6393 I have watched that first Spidey film and loved it. I don’t watch alot anymore with the amount I read and after all my time in the theatre if I am gonna watch something I usually want to watch an actor work as opposed to a voice performance. Having said that I should take myself outside my comfort zone and do something new so I really appreciate this list. I will tell you if you are a Full Metal Alchemist fan you may really enjoy our guest for the Artist’s Journey coming up in June.
Best superhero movie... Watchmen!
Nice!
Raising Arizona is awesome. But Holy Grail is way better/funnier.
Holy Grail is amazing!
Rocky 3 better than Rocky 1? Not so sure abt that lol... but the real best sports movie is Moneyball
Oh outside the box choice and I love it!
I’m happy to hear you’re quite the Legend fan! Which movie soundtrack do you prefer?😂
There is more than 1?
@@Talking_Story There is the Jerry Goldsmith soundtrack for legend and then there is the soundtrack done by the band Tangerine Dream. There soundtrack is more 80s synth music than orchestral. It was used for the original theatrical release of Legend.
@@zkinak2107 tangerine dream is all I have heard.
@@Talking_Story oooooh you gotta watch the directors cut of Legend at some point. Jerry Goldsmith orchestral score fits so so well with the film. The Tangerine Dream music was incorporated into the theatrical cut as a means of making the film appeal to younger audiences. Ridley Scott has gone on record to say that he prefers the Goldsmith score with the film.
@@zkinak2107 I will schedule a re watch!
Some of the best dramas: La Dolce Vita, Opening Night, This Sporting Life. One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is not a drama, but a melodrama, and there's a big difference. Best comedy, for me, is Everything is Illuminated, which is also a significantly better story about the holocaust than that cliched nonsense Schindler's List.
I will say with the heightened characters and events you could say Cuckoo’s Nest could be considered melodrama. So for drama I will go with Ordinary People. Have not seen Everything is Illuminated yet but I will for sure put it on my list. Thanks!
@@Talking_Story It is a very underrated film, but highly rewatchable.
@@DanLyndon I will definitely check it out.
The Virgin Suicides as best drama ever …. OK, we’re all entitled to our own opinions but for a film school student I feel like she hasn’t actually watched many films
She just finished first semester. Her choices will grow and look very different as life and her studies go on I bet.
