1. I'm surprised "Glengarry Glenross" isn't in there...

If there was ever a "writers' movie", that's it.

2. The Wizard of Oz is 25th

3. I always thought "Chinatown" was considered the greatest script.

[Metta]

4. On the Waterfront, East of Eden, A Face in the Crowd & A Tree Grows in

Brooklyn. All Elia Kazan, if I remember correctly. Some written by Budd Shulberg. :thumbsup:

5. Pulp Fiction at 16???

There are at least a 100 scripts better than that!

Sixth Sense? Who put that on here? What is going on at the WGA these days, it's like they'll let anyone walk in the door and vote for this list.

6. I'd add "One Flew Over the Coocoo's Nest

Nicholson and a lot of great character actors, including Will Sampson.
somebody asked "Chief" if he was a fighter. He said he'd never been knocked down by a white man.

7. Where's Porky's 2? Police Academy 5?

Idiots.

8. No "Airplane!" ... No "Blazing Saddles" ... No "Roadhouse"

What a scam. Clearly these people don't know their craft.

9. What? No Dodgeball? What the FUKC are they thinking? That was a seminal

work for Vince.

[Squatch]

10. I've only seen one of those (#1)

Though I did see Sunset Blvd on Broadway, and loved it. Petula Clark is amazing.

11. Take note

It's not the 100 greatest movies, but the 100 greatest screenplays. For whatever that's worth.
