Seth: Fogell, this ID says that you're 25 years old. Why wouldn't you just put 21, man?
Fogell: Seth, Seth, Seth. Listen up, ass-face: every day, hundreds of kids go into the liquor store with fake IDs, and every single one says they're 21. Pssh, how many 21 year olds do you think there are in this town? It's called f*cking strategy, alright?

Sorry Jack but there's no way that "Airplane" and "The Waterboy" can be put on the list instead of "The Deer Hunter" "The Usual Suspects" & "Platoon"

For sure that all those movies are very good but I think of 2 that should be before a lot of those and they are:

Dances with the Wolf
Carlito's Way

Have a nice day

I am also partial to The Exorcist as one of the greatest movies ever made.
