Wow, Django's dead last? Can I ask why? And Kill Bill v1 lower than v2? I think I rate 2 higher than a lot of people, but it's definitely not better than 1. Sticking with your convention:

You may be right. To me, though, that style of humor is getting so played out. I didn't mind that it was a reboot or that the cast was female (I'm with you on Kate McKinnon - if I ever rewatch the...

The first Hellraiser is legitimately disturbing. I hated how Pinhead became some kind of generic killer in a slasher film later in the series. If there's one constant for horror movies, it's that a...

Who Am I? is firmly in the post-Hollywood breakout era, so I didn't mention it. But you are right - it's also a good one. I actually enjoy quite a few of his post-breakout movies. Hell, I even...
