Board 8 > Whiskey Nick Whiskey Ranks the 112 movies he owns

(+) Yeah! (+)

43. Who Framed Roger Rabbit - 1988

Fantastic 'kids' movie. The mix of animation and live action in 1988 is fantastic and still looks amazing. Plus stuff like seeing Daffy and Donald on screen at the same time is like... mind blowing.
---

42. The Wrestler - 2008

I love wrestling, been a fan nearly my entire life. The Wrestler does a fantastic job looking at the after you're famous part. Or just at the never made it at all part.
---

41. Dodgeball - 2004

When I originally went to see this I had pretty low expectations. Now it stands as one of the best comedies ever in my books. Everything works so well and the cast play off each other perfectly. Also this movie spawned I have no idea how many adult dodgeball leagues. We have adult dodgeball in the school 2 nights a week every week. It's terrifying.
---

40. Mortal Kombat - 1995

While not the best so awful its good movie, it is right up there.
---

39. The Nightmare Before Christmas - 1993

Fantastic songs. Amazing look.
---

38. Harold and Kumar go to White Castle - 2004

Another excellent stoner comedy. Take such a simple task and make it an epic journey.
---

37. The Avengers - 2012

This movie is very slow build with a few cool moments, but man that final battle of New York scene is so gosh darn good.
---

36. The Naked Gun 2 1/2: The Smell of Fear - 1991

Any movie with Robert Goulet as the villain is excellent.
---

35. Ready to Rumble - 2000

The best wrestling movie ever made. This is literally everything wrong with WCW in its dying days and made into a stupid comedy with awful acting.
---

34. TMNT II: The Secret of the Ooze - 1991

Kevin Nash as Super Shredder.
---

Your collection of movies isn't bad but this ranking is bizarre
---

33. Kingsman: The Secret Service - 2014

I went into this expecting nothing and had such a good time the entire time. Great movie start to finish. The action was so unique here, and then the sequel tried to one up it and sorta missed the mark.
---

Ready to Rumble > Empire Strikes Back is a bold ranking
---

very bold

remember this is personal enjoyment, not actual quality
---

I think probably the strangest ranking is TMNT2 > TMNT1 by like 30 places. Like stuff like Ready to Rumble there is some sort of weird appeal there I guess but most people I've seen that like the series think TMNT1 is best by far and they have similar appeals for obvious reasons.

Especially since WCW literally copied matches from it and gave its star the title.

And yeah TMNT1 definitely the best live action TMNT
---

32. Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me - 1999

The first two Austin Powers movies are among the funniest most quotable movies ever.
---

31. Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad - 1988

The original is the best one. Fantastic trilogy. Ricardo Montalban as the villain also amazing.
---

30. BASEketball - 1998

I forgot how early into South Park this was. Matt and Trey kill it as usual.
---

29. Half Baked - 1998

Dave Chappelle. Funny funny guy.
---

28. Inglorious Basterds - 2009

Don't really like Tarantino's work usually. But this movie is just fantastic. Christoph Waltz is the only likeable Nazi ever.
---

27. Rocky Balboa - 2006

This is the only Rocky movie to make me cry. The ending was so satisfying.
---

26. Rocky IV - 1985

The best Rocky movie. The music, Drago, the insane pro America message. Rocky is so great he literally cured communism.
---

25. The Green Mile - 1999

This is one hell of a long movie on TV. Very graphic, almost jarring the first time watching.
---

24. Starship Troopers - 1997

The best so bad its good movie ever? Maybe. This movie is so god awful in the most fun kind of way. There is zero good acting here.
---

23. Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring - 2001

LotR is one of the only books I have ever read. Back before reading started putting me to sleep. Me and my friends lucked out, winter break seemed to start every year the day the LotR movies started in theaters. So that is what we did three years in a row.

It's a satire my dude
---

no way
---

You didn't seem to understand that based on the write-up!
---

i think he was serious when he said "no way"
---

How could the best bad movie ever be satire!?

Though could you imagine if they had made the movie the exact same way and it wasn't satire?
---

starship troopers the book is bad. at least the movie did something redeeming
---

I love the green mile and I pretend to breathe sickness flies out of my girlfriend whenever she gets sick and she hates it.

RIP Michael clark duncan

22. Escape from Alcatraz - 1979

Most random movie on the list that no one has heard of? I saw this one night at like 2am on TV and ended up watching the whole thing. Top tier Clint Eastwood here.
---

21. Avengers: Infinity War - 2018

The ending totally floored me. I knew stuff was gonna end bad here because 2 part thing but man it still caught me off guard.
---

20. Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers - 2002

The battle of Helms Deep was insane.
---

19. Back to the Future 2 - 1989

Nearly as good as the original. But not quite.
---

18. Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens - 2015

And now to piss people off. I have loved everything Disney has done with milking the Star Wars franchise on the big screen.
---

17. Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi - 2017

I am so hyped for Rise of Skywalker. GIMME DAT EMPEROR AND FORCE GHOST ANAKIN AND SO MANY THINGS
---

I recently watched escape from alcatraz. It's pretty good

The best Rocky movie. The music, Drago, the insane pro America message. Rocky is so great he literally cured communism.

Did you ever see the ESPN thing where they did a 30 for 30 style feature about Rocky IV? All pretending it was a real event.

Its great
---

Rocky ... wasn't real?
---

16. Back to the Future - 1985

Casual terrorism in the 80's. Fun times!
---

15. Independence Day - 1996

My all time favorite New Years movie.
---

14. Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery - 1997

Mama Cass - Ham sandwich.

I mean philly did put up a statue of him so clearly I'm just wrong.

I've also seen the Rocky Broadway musical which was awesome.
---

13. Ace Ventura: Pet Detective - 1994

Brilliant comedy. 1994 man, what a year for movies. The entire scene where Ace is pretending to be a former player that can't let go of the game is so good.
---

12. Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope - 1977

The Death Star run remains one of the all time great scenes in movies.
---

11. Scott Pilgrim vs the World - 2010

Despite Michael Cera being awful, this movie was a complete blast. The second half felt a bit rushed. Great casting on the evil exes.
---

Rocky was based around Chuck Wepner, a boxer from North NJ, near NYC (not Philly).
