"Empire's Top 100"

Absolutely stupid. They're supposed to be critics?

Donnie Darko - 21. Ridiculously high.
Casablanca - 46. Ridiculously low.

Oh, and number one and two? Drum roll please...

1. The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
2. The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers

Someone needs to be shot.

Hahaha. Fellowship number 1?

No.
It was good, yars, but come on.

I think their top 100 was the best I've ever seen. Great films in there. But Kill Bill shouldn't have been there and Reservoir Dogs should have been higher. Overrall, a great list.

Indeed. I enjoy a Lord of the Rings film as much as the next person - they're very well directed and scripted, an envoke a sense of patriotism to the side of evil. You really want the good guys to win. It's a really enjoyable film, but best ever? Now that's just funny.

i can easily think of 100 films better than donnie darko.

Oh, I agree they got the list more or less right.

They just completely screwed up the order.

Side of good, I meant.

Sure you did.

Two Towers was number three, Star Wars IV was two.

*rechecks sentence*

Yep, correct. Pirates of the Caribbean at 19 was a bit far-fetched I thought.

Oh, and it was voted for by readers, not the Empire staff. Perhaps you should have read it properly, no?
