I think it had something to do with Neo joining with Smith at the end of the first one.

in the explanation - Smith says a part of Neo was written onto the Smith program when he jumped inside him.

Therefore the Matrix equation became unbalanced or something.

Jaws
Godfather 2
Inception
Interstellar
Goodfellas
Caddyshack
Scarface (Pacino)
To Kill A Mockingbird
Lone Survivor

I've even grown to love the third one, although there are some things that bug me about it. BTTF2 > BTTF > BTTF3, but they're all still among my favourite movies ever.
You are literally the first person I've come across in my life that has ranked the 2nd movie better than the first.
I like it better than the 1st one as well. It just has so much more going on.


Sycsa is perhaps the most brilliant and insightful man I have ever encountered.

Inception
Goonies
Shawshank Redemption
The Prestige

I'm sure there are different movies to add to this list but this is what came to mind immediately.
Is all that we see or seem, but a dream within a dream?

Glad to see love for Nightcrawler! Also End of Watch. Gyllenhaal has become a favorite of mine

I wouldn't put End of Watch in my top 10, but it was definetely a good movie. Both Gyllenhaal and Peña were great in that one.

Good list there, In Bruges notwithstanding  :P ;)

1. Heat
2. The Usual Suspects
3. True Romance
4. Pulp Fiction/Reservoir Dogs
5. Sneakers
6. The Dark Knight
7. Gladiator
8. Tombstone
9. Crimson Tide/Hunt For Red October
10. Enemy of the State

Hard to leave some movies OFF the Top 10 list, but that's the reason the Top 10 doesn't have 50 movies.
