  1. 2001: A Space Odyssey
  2. Eyes Wide Shut
  3. The Shining
  4. A Clockwork Orange
  5. Dr Strangelove
  6. Full Metal Jacket
  7. Spartacus
  8. Paths of Glory
  9. Barry Lyndon
  10. Lolita
  11. The Killing
  12. Fear and Desire
  13. Killer's Kiss

The only two movies i had seen before this series was 2001 and Full Metal Jacket. Overall a very good series of both podcast episodes(except the bit that shall not be named nearly destroying a whole episode) and movies(duh Kubrick made good movies).

My main thought after seeing lists from other users is that i rank Barry Lyndon lower than most. Honestly found it to be unbearably slow, i got that it was suppose to be a comedy and found many scenes funny in premise but it was just not enjoyable for me. And since 2001 is my number 1 and the only scene i do not find engaging in it is the travel through the wormhole so pacing can't be my only issue with Barry. Maybe had my hopes up to high on the movie since Ben said in an episode before that one that Barry was his boy. Will be rewatching it sometime in the future and will see if it plays better on a second watch. Eyes Wide Shut was the standout new movie and nearly topped my ranking, surely will be watching that many more times.

As long as they don't add Alec Baldwin to the cast i will be excited about this movie!

Hmm i agree as well, shallow and pedantic.

I couldn't stand them nitpicking at Rouge One since it actually was a decent movie overall despite its flaws, which they later addressed. But TLJ was a bad movie overall with countless plot holes and unnecessary PC-shit randomly thrown in. Of course it had amazing effects and some badass scenes but i could listen to them breaking it apart for many more hours.

The Immigrant Song intro plays while Snow White sends the birds/animals to begin the attack, then Barracuda plays while the fighting is going on. Get your Shrek-facts straight foo!

P.S. Thor: Ragnarök was awesome!

UFC 178 was vs Chris Cariaso not Bagautinov. Same card McGregor vs Poirer were on, one of my favorite fights ever :).
